Working with Fred

The third installment of our storm-mix series recorded while watching the blizzard roar outside of our little love box. 

The series first began with "Magic Corner" in 2011 when NYC shut down in anticipation of Hurricane Irene. We decided to record a follow up mix during the next city-wide shutdown due to Super Storm Sandy during which we recorded "This Is the Place." You can thank the Blizzard of 2016 for this one. Hope you enjoy! xo, Nydia and Sami

A while back, the fellas over at Sonor Music Editions asked me to put together a mix of the past few years of releases they had done. Based out of Rome, Sonor is a label that specializes in reissuing Italian Library & Movie Soundtracks from the 1970s. If anyone knows me, they know that's right up my alley. So, I combed through the catalog, and hand picked some of my favorite selections for you to enjoy. Thank you for tuning in!

John Beltran (@john-beltran) is a major artist of the last twenty years. He is a true talented melodist, his arrangements have a rare delicacy and his tracks provide a unique good vibe that always goes with a perfume of kindness. From his words this is his down time but he may be doing a a new album for delsin records.Before then, enjoy this musical selection that starts with jazz and goes on with Brazil, a true moment of happiness.
Merci John.

The Fame-Beats motor along a Cuban-heeled path from Merseybeat via the Medway, doffing their caps at favorite big-beat-acts, such as Bern Elliot & The Fenmen, The Milkshakes, Russ Kruger and of course that most Fab Four, along the way.

The Fame-Beats’ Davey Lane and Rusty Hopkinson are known to some as long time bandmates in celebrated Australian rock-and roll group YouAmI. These two plucky charmers share a keen interest in Hamburg era British pop and it was on a stroll down the Reeperbahn that they decided to commit their love of all things BEAT to tape.

DON’T TELL NO LIES is the sad tale of a young man spurned told with the aid of chiming chords and soaring harmonies.

THE WATFORD STOMP is a reckless Cavern styled romp that demands you to DANCE.

Mark Sultan, a garage wunderkind who is also sometimes known as BBQ, has toured and released countless records for his legion of fans the world over. Wick Records are delighted to have the opportunity to make a couple of Mark’s new tunes available for your frugging pleasure and for his debut Wick platter Sultan takes his nous for pop hooks and garage rocking to new levels!

LET ME OUT is a snarling acid-punker that’s driven by an urgent beat, paper-cut-thin fuzz guitar and surging organ, it’s a classic garage lament - he just can’t take it and he wants OUT.

BE THE BLOOD jumps out of the gate like a Micheal & The Messenger’s side, and in it’s short life pushes the garage sound to edge of the psychedelic rainbow. We here at Wick, that most rockin’ little diskery on the planet, are THRILLED to be able to share these strange, yet delightful, emanations from Mr Sultan on a brand new 45 rpm record!

Mark Sultan - Let Me Out

"On paper it's a straightforward declaration of love, but in practice it's an excuse to scream the highest notes I can manage. Some of the fadeout reminds me of the singer in the nightclub altercation scene in the John Boorman film "Point Blank" in which Lee Marvin distinguishes himself as the first man in a Hollywood fight to punch his opponent in the orchestra stalls."
- James Hunter on "I Got Eyes"

It took 2 years to the Paulista dj and selector Radio Gringo (@radiogringo) for collecting all these obscure Brazilian love songs. Radio Gringo mainly focuses on jazzy, boogie, disco and ethno music, especially what comes from Brazil. This mix has a balearic flavour, "brazelaric" I should say. It's all about cozyness, the delicate sound of the sea, sun, love, melancholy and eternity.

100 Elements #15 Ft. Wiardon

Ellie Stokes is a truly exciting Bristol-based selector, rapidly ascending from the underground with a DJ style that adds colour, variation and flavour to the retro house cuisine.

Here she comes forward with a head-spinning mix of grooves and moods, a wave of warm air peppered with sand, debris and spray. A texturally complex journey through sound.

In parts, this is a true spin of classic house.. But in more ways it's a shot through the kaleidoscope; slap bass, organic vocals, live drums, liquid analogue synths. Proper quality vibes from West Coast UK!

In Ellie's words...
"The  mix  was  recorded  at  the  end  of  the  summer  and  captures  the  early  evening  summer  headyness.  It's  compiled  from  tunes  I  was  listening  to  and  playing  out  at  the  time,  from  deep  and  chilled  to  more  dance  floor  vibes.  Recorded  in  my  sunny  flat  on  vinyl  and  digital."

This is a playlist by Switch Groove (@sg-exp) from Highlife in Clermont-Ferrand. He hosts the Open Sky radioshow (Radio Campus) and the podcast "La Causerie Musicale" produced by Musique pour l'Imaginaire @musique-pour-limaginaire.

I like to conceive my playlists as a trip. I can’t be everywhere in this world so that seems to me a good compromise to be here but “mentally there” through the music!!My favourite musical territory is the black Atlantic ocean, the rich musical domain of the african diaspora, this is where I enjoy “travelling”.So I have done a selection made of fusion jaz, jazz funk, biguine, latin jazz, deep house…

1) Norman Connors & Pharoah Sanders – Beyond a dream (Arista, 1981)
I’m starting with the United States (for the artists) and Europe (for the recording). 1978, Montreux, Norman Connors & Pharoah Sanders : 2 musicians representative of the spiritual jazz who deliver a huge session if fusion jazz. After a nice introduction, the bass appears!! And when you would think the track is about to end, that’s the moment it goes into a scat impro!! The jazz I love, free, uninhibited…

2) Hugh Masakela – Inner Crisis (Chisa, 1972)
This tune was on the album “Home is where the music is” : a pertinent title when you know this musician has been in exile most of his life. After the piano opening, a deep rhythm takes place. Then the chorus go one… I make here a reference to South Africa that I was lucky enough to discover this year.

3) Nemo – Black Art (Agave, 1974)
A stop in France with this jazz funk project. It’s a track I play regularly. The voice gives a psyche feeling, it’s very efficient and just makes me dance in 3 sec.

4) Unknown – Aka, Aki
Unfortunately I don’t have lots of infos about this tune and the band. I only know they’re from Martinique (french caribbean island) and they play hard!! The rythmic is fast and never slows down all along the track. Where is the rhum?

5) Bill-O-Men – No, no, no (3A, 1977)
This song is also from the West Indies, it’s a latin version. The piano is crazy. The whole vibe of the track could make you feel of Fania Records productions. Then the voice comes and it’s a real surprise… I find it pretty funny.

6) Okyerema Asante – Sabi (Get Down)
Disco, disco, disco… The production is simply phenomenal: a cutting beat, tight horns chords, dubby sound effects… the band is from West Indies but it’s been produced in the States. Dancefllor killer.

7) Roland Brival – Sakitayo (Yoruba Soul mix) (Isma’a, 2003)
A last track from the french caribbean with Roland Brival remixed by Osunlade. Isma’a was the label of Antoine Rajon who now continues his production work with the very good Heavenly Sweetness label. I have to mention the very soul voice supported by a classy production. The kick comes late and then the tune slowly navigates ’till its end.

8) NACE – La Musique en Vérité (unsigned)
A homemade version. It’s an edit of “Musica en Vérité” from Gnonnas Pedro from Benin. I have made a house interpretation based on the original version but with longer guitar sections and longer rythmics. I let you judge.

9) Reggie Dokes – God of House (Clone, 2011) Detroit.
Detroit. According to me, Reggie Dokes is a misknown artist. I like evrything he does. His music is very spiritual with that melancholic vibe typical of Motor City productions. The piano, the chords are very synthetic. Hi-tek Soul!!

10) Sun Ra – UFO (Mike Huckaby Edit) (Kindred Spirits, 2011)
I’m ending this selection with another Detroit track. First time I have listened to this edit, I felt I had to write a message to Mike Huckaby to congratulate and thank him. His job is excellent. Make a cover of Sun Ra is very complicated, the harmonies, the textures… the track sounds a bit “unstable” but that makes all its charm : a proper definition of the cosmic sound.
