Ka Kong Remix

BIG TUNE! I was very happy when my friend Thornato (co-founder of Cumba Mela Records and all-around good dude) hit me up about remixing this song. His original version, featuring ragga vocalist Jahdan, is a massive 3ball influenced rootsy global bass monster. I wanted to take it down to half speed with some reggae roots, but also keep it hype for the club, so I mixed in a bit from both worlds and voila! Press play and bump loudly- apologies in advance if your speakers blow out. Big shout out to my man DJ Theory & LargeUp.com for featuring the premier. And please, if you’re feelin it, support by purchasing the full release here.

What better time to take a Caribbean vacation than the middle of January? While blizzards and sub-zero temperatures sweep half the country, I know all my East Coast friends and fam are doing their best to keep from freezing their keisters off. Consider this post my offering to those who can’t afford the time off work, or plane ticket to Jamaica- a nice heavy heap of dancehall, reggae, soca and other sun-soaked sounds that can (at least mentally) help you feel closer to the equator. One time for anyone out there who also had the Cool Runnings soundtrack on cassette tape as a kid!

Attack Of The Giant Baby

Happy New Year! Sorry for the delay in posts, I’ve been extremely busy enjoying my vacation. After a quick jaunt to Hawaii followed by a long string of gatherings with fam & friends, I’m finally getting back to work. Didn’t get a chance to make a proper “best of”, but I’m thinking my next episode of MTR Radio will be an attempt at that (long overdue, I know). Today’s tunes go from mellow to hype and back again, nothing particularly relevant to the start of 2014- just some things I’ve been listening to the past couple of weeks. Press play and meditate on those resolutions you made, before the baby gets grown and overtakes us all.

Bastard Jazz // 2013

posted by • December 18, 2013 • Leave a comment

BJ-2013

While I haven’t had a chance to put together my own personal “best of” for the year, my brethren at Bastard Jazz Records have made an excellent mix composed entirely of their releases from this year- plus a few snippets of unreleased material (including something from my upcoming Capt. Planet album). Starting off with some top-notch downtempo and future funk, the mix picks up and travels into some Caribbean and Afro styles, classic disco, and a touch of house as well. It’s impressive to see how much great material they’re putting out, and I’m happy to be a part of the Bastard familia alongside heads like Lord Echo, Potatohead People, Sol Power All-Stars, Starship Connection, Colm K and more. Props to my homies DJ DRM & Erik The Red! Check out the soundcloud page for a full tracklist and links to buy individual tracks.

Tis The Season

In my ongoing effort not to perpetuate mindless obedience to mass-marketing and gluttonous consumer hysteria, I will once again urge all my friends to make me mixtapes rather than buy me a new set of congas, or that really fresh button up from 10deep, or a set of platinum rims for my Honda Fit (although I won’t be mad if you guys DO end up getting me those things). On second thought, I have too much music already. Dear Santa, GET ME A GOLD CHAIN!

Disclosure x Nile Rodgers x Sam Smith x Jimmy Napes :       Together
holy hell yes! Do I even need to say anything after you read the line-up?

DJ Vadim :       Black Is The Night ft. Katherin Deboer oldie but goodie, mellow reggae/hip hop vibes

Ash Reynolds :       Don't Want To Let You Go
nice mid-tempo laid back disco edit taken from this new EP on Cloak Dagger’s new label

Mayer Hawthorne :       Wine Glass Woman
teaming up with Pharrell on this one, and you can hear it in the undeniable catchyness of the hook

Hubbabubbaklubb :       Mopedbart
Norwegians rarely sound this funky. Don’t know what he’s singing about, but I can’t help but smile every time he says “fart”. Can someone Scandinavian please tell me what that means??? More from these guys here.

Dena :       Cash
I like how this girl is doing her own thing. Nice bouncy remix makes it dancefloor worthy.

TJ Swann :       And You Know That
old school disco 12″ rarity in the mix just because

Body Language :       Just Because &       Lose My Head
funky electro pop from this Brooklyn group

Franz Ferdinand :       Right Action (Liv Spencer Rework)
exactly the kind of rocker-disco that pleases the skinny pants kids and funk heads alike, bravo.

Fitz & The Tantrums :       The Walker &       Out Of My League
big classic hooks are taking this local band to the next level of popdom and I ain’t mad. Kinda reminds me of some Matt & Kim

I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving with multiple food comas and extended afternoon naps. I’m gradually coming down from a week-long gratitude high myself, still feeling full and a few pounds heavier. Not a lot of time today since I’m jumping right back into work, but you know I can’t go too long without feeding the fiends in need. Some nice recent musical discoveries for you, old and new: something funky, something punky, and a little grit for good measure. If you’re like me and are constantly looking for hand-knit onesies, then you’ll probably dig checking out more pics by Phyllis Galembo, like the one above.

Mapei :       Don't Wait

Heavy English :       21 Flights

Jupiter :       Hula Hoop

Shakatak :       Down On The Street (Black Amex Edit)

MNDR :       Feed Me Diamonds (RAC Remix)

Para One ft. Jaw :       When The Night (Breakbot Remix)

Cassius :       Toop Toop

Duck Sauce :       Radio Stereo (Bastille Edit)

Manicured Noise :       Metronome (Cousin Cole Remix)

Breach :       Jack

The Magician :       When The Night Is Over (Claptone Remix)
