I went with the digital but I know what you mean!
This cast a spell on me …
Cypress Hill x Miles Davis - mucho impressive
Lovely Talking Heads cover.
Jazz house EP from Melbourne bassist Horatio Luna and friends under the Lush Life moniker. Artwork by yours truly! Give it a spin - it’s bloody good gear.
Jimpster putting his magic touch on this Black Loops track.
Random House Project back with another cool rework
Lush Strut is the biniss. Thanks
No surprise that on a va comp asking producers to use the 808 and 303 it’s Daniel Wang whose effort stands out a mile. Classy.
More machine music. This was a white label last year. Now digital. Tom Carruthers is a top producer of the new old sound.
Standout pre-order track on the latest Isle of Jura comp. Love this.
He sent me that last week - so good innit!
Current fave - The Jam Answer is a proper ride
I really like the microdot track. Solid release.
Both top drawer
Banger.
Three double LP’s on Eskimo!!
“Throughout all my time as a musician and producer, ever since Jack the Tab, I’ve been focused on developing a single idea: Blending psychedelic sounds and effects with rhythm.” Richard Norris, Strange Things Are Happening [White Rabbit 2024]
Over the past few years Eskimo Recordings have invited some of the best crate diggers around to curate compilations that don’t just reveal the hidden contents of their record bags but something about themselves too. Now, following in the footsteps of the likes of Bill Brewster and Psychemagik, producer, musician, DJ, writer and more, Richard Norris, takes us on a globetrotting psychedelic journey with the epic 42 track collection, Mr Norris Changes Brains.
For over forty years Richard has played a part in many of the UK’s most important music subcultures. Whether sharing stages with the likes of Tracey Thorn as a pubescent punk in St. Albans, or running freakbeat nights in Liverpool and working at the pioneering psychedelic label Bam Caruso, co-producing the UK’s first acid house inspired LP with Throbbing Gristle’s Genesis P. Orridge or riding the wave of creativity that the second summer of love unleashed all the way to the Top of the Pop studios as The Grid, Richard’s career has continually seen him work to expand both his own and the public’s musical horizons.
Think quite a few of these were on Finders Keepers comps. Tasty stuff indeed.
Next level. Richard is brilliant and as this comp shows has a huge knowledge of all sorts of music. I think I’ve heard of only 3 tracks on it.
Bit late to the party… but nice follow up to the last comp…
Good selection of Left field stuff
