Then into a different flavour, Blues and Rythm & Blues is the word with Marcel Vogels Blue Tape. Here's a little note in his own words: "Just a quick note regarding this mix. I was on my way to a festival this summer and at the train station I bought a Best of Fleetwood Mac CD. At some point on the transfer bus I encountered Worried Dreams which probably is the most intense song I ve ever heard. You know you could say my father died brokenhearted but lived the Blues before he died and I miss him sometimes and the Blues brings him a little bit closer again. This is for him."

another 120, this week focus on Berlin, . . . different musical views with the jazz influenced heavyweight music by Niko Schabel aka Radio Citizen and more into house, soul & boogie with Johannes Albert of WHITE fame. Niko Schabel took 4 years for producing his second album "Hope & Despair" for Ubiquity - all worth the time! He's sticking to his sound but looks into the future. Ursula Rucker, Bajka and his brilliant community of musicians helped him out - brilliant album, check it. Johannes Albert produces housemusic for labels like Stupendous, Deeper Shades and is now one of the main artists on the sublime WHITE 12inch label out of Berlin. His mix is a soulful take on the full spectrum of what they call housemusic. Thanks a lot , Johannes! Need to mention that Bunker Hill tune, which is coming out of Offenbach, near Frankfurt is features heavy heavy bass and rythms and sounds. Watch your speakers! Great debut for a new label, dedicated to sophisticated sound excursions. . . watch this space. enjoy the music, michael show no. 628 posted november 21st, 2010. ++ intro ++ Linda Tillery - Freedom Time - Counterpoint Masa Sextet - Look Intp Tomorrow feat.
