Various (Strut Records)In the Christmas Groove
(Strut Records)
You know the holidays are coming when you cannot move in the shops for sleigh bells and festive music. And as the old adage goes, you can never have enough sleigh bells. Otherwise, you might end up on Santa’s naughty list, and you wouldn’t want that, would you? ... read more
Liquid StrangerThe Intergalactic Slapstick
(Interchill Records)
I'm listening to the album The Intergalactic Slapstick and can't help but think about how in comparison to his past work, Liquid Stranger has gone through some significant evolution. On his last album, The Invisible Conquest, Liquid Stranger's sound was rooted strongly in dub and a sort of trademark northern west coast US electronic psychedelia. I'll bet if I gave you one guess you'd figure out what direction that evolution went in. ... read more
The Voodoo Trombone QuartetVoodoo Juju '09
(Freshly Squeezed)
Ah, The Voodoo Trombone Quartet. They are like a pitcher of fresh fruit juice. You always know it's got that tangy-sweet zing that will be hitting your taste buds with its deliciously confusing flavor, that more often than not makes you want to drink more and more. That's kind of how the Voodoo Trombone's sound hits your ears. You can be sure it's never bland, boring, or lifeless. If anything is ever said about them, it cannot be that they don't have zing. ... read more

Dub Traffik ControlBongo Dub/Carlito's Cumbia
(BSTRD Boots)
Dub Traffik Control stole into my ears a bit back with a mix they put together to promote their first EP release, which came in the form of BSTRD BOOTS 04. A tasty dish of musical buds I must say. While heavy, heavy dub ruled the Dub Traffik Control then, it's cumbia that's running things on their new BSTRD BOOTS single, but you know dub isn't far away. But, how far? Good question. ... read more

Now, the second volume in their "Protected" series is out and it showcases the songs and beats that made Massive Attack such a huge success. ... read more
