Lay Her Down - Psychedelic Blues

This is another blues remix from the batch I did in 1999.  I used my Kyma system to do the granular loop on RL's guitar that runs throughout the song. 

RL Burnside - My Buddy's Mountain (Beale Dabbs Remix)

R.L. Boyce has been a musician since his days as a child growing up in Como, Mississippi, home to the great Hill Country bluesman Mississippi Fred McDowell. He started out as a drummer, playing for the Rising Star Fife and Drum band with blues legend Otha Turner, all the while waiting to come out in front to sing and play guitar. His songs are often delivered in an improvisational fashion, with references to his collaborators, his environs and whatever else happens to be on his mind at that particular moment.
 
Hill Country music is loose and free, so much so that it puts both the performer and the listener in a warm, almost meditative state while still groovy enough to demand a good ass shake. Through improvisation, it is designed to heighten your consciousness. You don’t play this sort of music so much as you submit to it. 
 
Luther Dickinson of the North Mississippi All-stars says, “RL Boyce is a first-hand protégé of Fred McDowell, Ranie Burnette and, RL Burnside but with an added rhythmic edge he honed from his time playing drums with Jesse Mae Hemphill. RL's endless boogie keeps the She Wolf style alive.”
 
To properly capture the sound of RL and his friends, you set up the mics, get the hell out of the way and let the hypnotic boogie take over.

They say the greatest players are so tight they are loose. This is that.

Boogie woogie is an example of 20th century music taking inspiration from industrial sounds, compare  this with Kraftwerk's Trans Europe Express; same source, but different music.

Ale Train Boogie Woogie

This is the 4th of my Corona-Blues experiments meant to be a tribute to various (Electro) Blues artists like today "Louis Armstrong"& "Robert Lee Burnside".

It results from a close cooperation with 
https://soundcloud.com/legomix
who combined the remix of classic Blues by Beal Dabbs
https://soundcloud.com/the-pitchfork-villager
with New Orleans Dixie Blues by Louis Armstrong.
The result is slowly danceable @ 86bpm and not as sad as Blues usually is. 
Right?

"D.B.C.B Two"

Blues is Victor's first love, followed by country and bluegrass. A traditionalist at heart, equally adept at acoustic finger-picking and slide in the vein of Mississippi as well as wrangling Chicago blues and swing from the West Coast on electric, Victor's song-writing is inspired by historical and current events.

He is also exploring new sounds, joining up the threads of influence between classic and modern rock, psychedelia and ethnomusicology with Americana. One foot firmly in the past, the other dipping a toe in the sonic waters of the future.
