And this cracks me up, mental idea, mad as a sack of bats and all that.

IT'S ALIVE!

PC back up and running. Well, actually I had to get a whole sodding new one :/ Upgrade a blessing in disguise I guess...

So kicking back off with some Pretty Lights. This is Still Night from the Glowing in the Darkest Night album. As the the question goes, what makes the mutha fucker so damn fresh?

Still Night


And you can get the album free here, just head to the bottom of the page and enter the main site.

Pressing pause

Unfortunately my home PC has died a foul death. New one is on order and should be here in a week. Tune posting will resume as soon as I am not having to use my sodding phone to write this :P

We can't be divided

Seemed an appropriate title with so much of what's going on in the world lately. Anyways, music...

Now this man has some funky soul goodness going on, Willie Wright. He released a couple (that I know about anyway) of albums in the '70s and is probably best known for his cover of Curtis Mayfield's Right On For the Darkness.

I'm So Happy Now


Turns out though that Willie has recorded another album, his first for 34 years, just recently. For more info and to have a listen, check out his website on myspace.

Tune of the week

Tune I've been listening to the most this week is this Jimi Needle's edit of Tightrope by Janelle Monae. I like both, but actually I much prefer this to the original.

In case you somehow missed the original...

A selection

A mixture of audio pleasure for you good people today.

First off we have OOAH & Kitty-D with a mix of their musical adventures in 2007. Scientific sound surgery they've described it as... A fitting term. They've made it available as a free download too.

The Seedling Escape Mix (2007)



Next up we have Daisuke Tanabe and a tune I've posted before. It was in my head and not enough people have heard this before, so I'm posting again. I'm not entirely sure what genre he fits in, alternative-techno-breakbeat-thing, but I know it works.

Artificial Sweetener



Finally a funk classic by legendary British funk band, Cymande. If you've not heard Cymande before you will almost certainly have heard them sampled. If you don't own any... well, you should consider changing that. ;) From 1972 this is Brothers On The Slide.

Higher Ground

Just a quick fly by post today, more fleshed out stuff in the pipeline though ;) However, that doesn't mean today's tune can't be a good one...

Stevie Wonder - Higher Ground (scratchandsniff' re-rub)
