Jansky Noise - Past Present & Future Star Music

My man James Leyland Kirby just sent me a link to this Hungarian piece from Bela Tarr. When you watch, you have to think about human sensibility, dignity, people real people, it looks like someone is on the edge, thinking about a horrible split and a situation gone. James, has for long time, been able to position himself into uneasy spots musically. Rest in unrest, the audio here compliments the broke, gone theme, its defiantly finished, as the words go; ´´It's all over, Over, And there won't be another, it won't be good, ever again, Never more, Maybe never more, It's like a nightmare. Take it or leave it, this is what you're stuck with, what can you do? What would you do, have you been here before? It won't be good Ever again Maybe never more He's got my soul Things are going his way Without him This world is barren With him Life is full and happy Silly Never again Maybe never more It's over All over There's no end No end n

I am loving the choreography in this Kwabs here. The dance moves from this crew, compliment so well, the director has captured and blended a great international London centric cocktail, very much of now. Kwabs, have been on my playlist these last few months, check it!  

Hang on to it, just 20 views on Youtube today this song has, almost 20 years have passed and at least 12 since I last heard this, a certain Mr Acid reminding me of this today. I was hoping to squeeze, and do as Frank does here in San Sebastian this weekend, but the camino has taken me physically to another place. Hanging on to it. !!

It's impossible to imagine the effect this would have had in the market back in the day. Just reading comments on Youtube makes me wonder. Puzzled at how it's taken me so long to not actually see this. Amazing!

So inspired by this music, such a long time ago. Amazing to see that now a day such tracks, with massive impact on us, lost in the mists of time. Submerge in this one, and take it easy.

Real sad to wake up this morning and hear about Frankie Knuckles, in honor of the great man, for his inspiration and moving House Music, I played and listened in absolute silence to Your Love and Tears.  I have met many legends in my time, and spoken with inspirational creators, I never met Frankie, but his music met me! R.I.P. ....and later this day, I was checking into Frankie, and spent all or as much of the day listening to his mix´s and music. I was amazed to find no lyrics for his sexual classic - Baby Wants to Ride, so here in rememberance of Frankie Knuckles, you have the lyrics.....It´s the least I can do, on this day, for someone who had such an impact on me as a youngster. . Frankie Knuckles, - Baby Wants to Ride, (Original Club Mix) 8.37 Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the lord my soul to keep and if I die before I wake I pray the lord my soul to take. Jamie it´s time to tell my people the truth. It´s time to tell them the revelation of my second coming hav

Feels like a long time ago, listening to this, and thinking about the time when this record was sent to me, as I was sharing vinyl and had my music on one side. Always a strong release, a timeless cracker, time keeps on moving, as we always knew, my time don't stick, but the music we made and shared back then, was sometimes sticky!

Great visuals and use of light here, the tune, reminds me of my school days listening to ICE T´s Power with a certain Mr Doyle, early production!!                                                            

Sounding incredibly retro, lush pads not distant (in melody) to Octave One - I believe. Loving the full sythn and percussoin, reminding me of how good they were back in 1990, almost an R&S classic.  Great work. 

Nice to start the new year in a new space. My sparing partner James Leyland Kirby is doing just so, by spreading audio light, onto the Apollo Record Label, the quieter sister label of R & S Records. It´s impossible to say, how important both these labels were to us at V/Vm Test Records back in the day, the influence of those advanced Belgium classics, and our man Acid Alan drove, drives and has driven, deep into our Mancunian souls. Wonderful news, at the start of the year, completing a voyage that started a long time ago. Keep an eye out for the release and follow the link for more!! http://www.junodownload.com/plus/2014/01/07/leyland-kirby-surfaces-on-apollo/
