SoulSearching Episode #580

from the abstract beats and basses to the uplifting boogie moments, supersoulmusic plus a bit of jazz thrown in for good measure - that's the way it goes in this weeks soulsearching. so many good more or less unknown beat producers around, so i thought i give you a few bits & pieces on the abstract tip besides introducing new albums by little dragon, fat freddys drop, ian simmonds, and... lee fields & the expressions! with all this soul & funk revival goin on since a while now this record proves 100% why it needs a real voice from back in the days and a great band to reach oit for your souls. favourite album of my whole family at the moment. and i am diggin the new look track on the new brownswood bubblers 4 - "everything" reminds me of early 90s underground soul as well as the minimal but funky and soulful touch of a band called taxi, remember? and in the end it's disco music, but without a beat. sublime. a great jazz piano trio moment full of energy taken from the lp "the junior mance touch" which i have found recently in a very good record shop in hamburg. music like this is the reason why i still love to go record shopping. vinyl that is ! and then a little mix selection for the feel good factor this summer 2009, also strictly vinyl. in the box for those festivals to come....lookin very much forward to this saturday - playing the aftershow party of a great new festival in sofia, bulgaria - check www.parklivefest.com for the full line-up.
