Galactic Convertible Music by docdelay
This is the second, summer mix in the ‘Galactic Music’ series. People who dug last Summer’s “Galactic Hot Tub Music” will notice a similar motif, but with more bounce. Perfect for that road trip through the cosmos.

Heads up yall! This kid from LA is doing something different and has LYRICS. Something that has seemed to disappear in rap lately. I’d definitely be on the lookout for upcoming releases from Earl n’ em. I see big things in their future.

Playing whatever the f*ck I want
One great thing about working at the shop is getting to take home, and record some of the choice African stuff that floats through. I’m not even going to pretend like I know anything about this record other than that it’s from Senegal and this track has serious bounce. The song’s about 15 minutes long so sit tight, it gets real thick with fuzz and extra percussion about halfway through.
As our tastes mature, our ears get rusty, and our open doors close, it’s easy to get carried into the role of hate-anything-new dude. I’ve always tried to fight this inevitable current. After all, the LAST thing I want is to be discussing some music’s relevancy over wine at a dinner party. I’d much rather be able to nod on the train with a kid running something fresh in his headphones. I tried my hardest to stay current with the ‘Lils’ and the ‘Youngs’ but, finally, I’m settling into my old man mode.
It’s not that no one is bringing anything good to the table any more, but they damn sure are getting fewer and farther between. So… rather than harp on how sad things are getting, I’d like to take a look back at 3 Rap tracks from last year I thought got lost in the wash.

Right-Click to Download: Kurious – Rubberbandz (produced by The Beatnuts) Kurious returned with a pretty decent record in March. While it lacked the consistency of the first classic, mainly due to different styles of production, the regrouping of Jorge and the Beatnuts was by far my favorite. Check the bass line… Classic Beatnuts. |

Right-Click to Download: Blahz – Make a Livin Yep. That’s right… Blahz. The East New Yorker that put rappers in danger, came back with a serious banger last year. I love it when a producer like Metaphysic can take something that’s been used fiftyleven ways til Sunday like 20th Century Steel Band’s “Heaven and Hell”, flip it, and make it sound fresh again. This track has been on heavy rotation since I got it from the homie Bravo from Sid Roams. |

Right-Click to Download: Peedi Crack – More Towels Peedi does very little work that I don’t like. One of Philly’s most unsung heroes, his releases lately have been some of my most frequently played out in the clubs. Like the Blahz cut, it was great to hear someone reintroduce an overused classic in a new light. Lyn Collins’ – “Think” gets a chop treatment that keeps the dancefloor on it’s toes. |
A lot of us were introduced to Daniel Lanois‘ work over the years, but unless you were scanning the liner notes, you probably missed his name gracing the production credits on the ‘Dune’ soundtrack, and U2′s ‘The Joshua Tree.’
It just so happened that today i passed by this album by Martha and the Muffins while parusing some record bins, and I noticed his name on it. I got the urge to post a blog tribute to an amazing producer, writer and pedal-steel player. Lanois’ solo work is equally as impressive as his resume.

The super-talented DJ B. Cause of San Francisco’s Groove Merchant Records and 4One Funk crew helped me put together this collection of pop song-sandwiches a few months ago, and while it was received well, the download numbers were a little disappointing. It wasn’t until a couple days ago, that I realized the large-sized .zip file may have been keeping people from downloading it. In the interest of getting it out there, we have reintroduced the release with an individual preview/download option for each song. Hopefully now it can circulate better. Thanks for checking in.
