The Wyrding Floor Dog Days w/ Max Dupa - 17/07/26 - [Voices Radio]

The Wyrding Floor with Max Dupa — a monthly hour where leftfield music meets British folklore and the turning of the year. 'Dog Days (The Year Lies Down)' — the high-summer edition. Sirius is rising with the sun — the Romans blamed it for fevers, mad dogs and sour wine — and this was the month the old farming year simply lay down: hay in, harvest not ready, nothing to do but wait by the water. St Swithin's Day passed dry, so we're owed forty days of fair weather. As this airs, the King's swan-counters are rowing their final mile up the Thames, at no great speed. The records match: unhurried jazz-funk, soul and balearic haze — Gene Harris, Marvin Gaye, Bill Withers gone to Rio, Doug Hream Blunt, Andrés, and Simply Red, cleared for sunrise duty by Alfredo. Four of these waited decades to be found. Nothing here is in a rush. Find some water this week and get in it. Catch you somewhere between the roots and the rhythm — where the river runs slow and the kick drum keeps its cool. 00:00:00 Ambient Curation - Six Missing - Sunrise Coffee 00:04:10 King Imagine - Dawn Song 00:07:09 Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin - Óró 'sé do bheatha 'bhaile 00:08:21 Tinariwen - Assuf Ag Assuf 00:10:14 Songhoy Blues - Batto 00:12:12 Sarah Bates - On Danse Slo 00:14:47 Awon - No Return 00:18:36 Comet Compilations - Letta Mbulu - What's Wrong with Groovin' 00:20:55 Jacki's Groove - I Need Somebody To Love Tonight (BB Edit) 00:28:01 Mohammad Assaf - Dammi Falastini (JKriv Edit) 00:33:00 Kokoroko - Just Can't Wait (musclecars extended remix) 00:41:46 Kokoroko - Time & Time (IG Culture Remix) 00:46:32 Meggy Mac - Modern Day Witching 00:51:26 Janet Kay - Silly Games - Lovers Rock Edit
