Chic Gamine - City City (2010)

I like this soul- I want to get closer.
This is the first four songs off new album, heard them first on the CBC.

Lord Huron - Mighty EP (2010)

Have not been here for months, good to see some comments.
Here are some tropical folk melodies for the winter melancholies.
Sadly the angelic sea-elephant does not feature in these lyrics.

Yabby You - Deliver Me From My Enemies (1977)

Authenticité - The Syliphone Years: Guinea's Orchestres Nationaux and Federaux 1965-1980

Been absent of mind and space for a while... time to share some discoveries. After viewing some Orchestre Baobab performances on YouTube I was linked to a song called Ballakè by Bembeya Jazz National.


The soothing voice, horns, and gentle bass guitar was enchanting. Searching for their music, I discovered a compilation album online representing some of Guinea's jazz between 1965-1980.

Spacemen 3 - Singles (1987-8)

If your heart is not pumping after the first song, you may be confused about Spacemen 3, free lads known to Taking Drugs To Make Music To Take Drugs To. Channeling waves of punk, blues and spaced out guitar chants, they experiment in noise and drone and light. While Rollercoaster is cool it clocks in at 14 minutes far too soon. Hold on, keep going. Touch your mouse here for enough radiation to explore the outer reaches of sound and space.

Yabby You - Conquering Lion (1972)

Search Amazon.com for Yabby You Conquering Lion
Yabby You passed away last week. Heard his seductive music on UofT radio. I've never felt such positive vibes while contemplating the anti-Christ. Check out this herald of righteous dub for the love of Jah. Medication for the heart. Will post more.

Junior Byles - Beat Down Babylon: The Upsetter Years

The story of Junior Byles is both inspiring and tragic. I think he is the James Brown of dub music - it's rocksteady, R&B, and full of love. Mixed by The Upsetter.
