Ian McP Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 Just now, Ian McP said: https://markdeclivelowe.bandcamp.com/track/cosmic-ride < Imagine travelling at hyper-speed, in an instant covering all dimensions of space and time, with your astronomical commanders Mark de Clive-Lowe and Ghost, escorting you through the hidden musical wormholes of the aural galaxy. Legendary producer Mark de Clive-Lowe, one of West London’s Broken Beat pioneers, has joined forces with David “Ghost” Zylberman of Spectrum Records to create “Cosmic Ride”, a track that emulates the rush and marvel of interdimensional travel. MdCL as the pilot with Ghost at the helm, manning this ride through the extraterrestrial undertow, the console of their vessel controlled by their instruments of choice: Rhodes, Synths, Turntables and Drum Machines. Syncopated organic jazz funk weaves the ship along, while keyboard solos and turntable scratching spiral the ship off into new trajectories, heavy analog basslines and drum patterns in turn steady this expedition of maximum velocity. Now more than ever is the time to vacate our celestial bodies and embark on a sonic, intergalactic journey through the mysteries of deep space. released February 10, 2021 Produced by Mark de Clive-Lowe & Ghost > 2

Ian McP Posted December 20, 2021 Posted December 20, 2021 classic jazz funk from Donald Byrd's album Ethiopian Nights https://www.discogs.com/master/39013-Donald-Byrd-Ethiopian-Knights available on 180g vinyl from Birdland Records, Sydney and Dutch Vinyl, Melbourne https://www.dutchvinyl.com.au/products/donald-byrd-ethiopian-knights-32894 < This album is the culmination of the innovative sound that Donald put forth on Fancy Free, Electric Byrd and Kofi. Combining L.A. studio musicians with Bobby Hutcherson and Harold Land and Jazz Crusaders Joe Sample and Wilton Felder, Byrd paints sonic pictures that draw from the textures of Miles Davis's "In a Silent Way" and African music as well as jazz, funk and fusion. Now a 180-gram LP reissue as part of the Blue Note 80 Vinyl Reissue Series. > 2

Ian McP Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 from the cult movie Downtown 81 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downtown_81 < Downtown 81 is a 2000 American film that was shot in 1980-1981.[3] The film was directed by Edo Bertoglio and written and produced by Glenn O'Brien and Patrick Montgomery, with post-production in 1999-2000 by Glenn O'Brien and Maripol. It is a rare real-life snapshot of an ultra-hip subculture of post-punk era Manhattan. Starring renowned artist Jean-Michel Basquiat and featuring such East Village artists as James Chance, Amos Poe, Walter Steding, Tav Falco and Elliott Murphy, the film is a bizarre elliptical urban fairy tale. In 1999, Michael Zilkha, founder of ZE Records (the label of several of the film's artists), became the film's executive producer. > < The soundtrack features music by: Jean-Michel Basquiat with Andy Hernandez; Basquiat's own band, Gray; John Lurie and the Lounge Lizards, DNA, Tuxedomoon, the Plastics, Marvin Pontiac, Kenny Burrell, the Specials, Chris Stein, Melle Mel with Blondie, Liquid Liquid, Kid Creole and the Coconuts, James White and the Blacks, Vincent Gallo, Lydia Lunch, Steve French and Suicide. Many of the recordings were of live performances, but DNA and Tuxedomoon were recorded in the studio for the soundtrack. > looks like Joseph Bowie from Defunct here (brother of jazz trumpeter Lester Bowie) blown’ a mean trombone, sure is! https://www.discogs.com/release/117536-James-White-The-Blacks-Sax-Maniac https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Bowie 1
