JONDI & SPESH - "I Drank It"






JONDI & SPESH - "I Drank It" (2007)




Wow... I remember back in high school I used to go nuts to Jondi & Spesh's "Impenetrable Sayonara". One of the coolest songs I've danced to at any party or club, but that's just my opinion.

Well, J&S are still at it, and making some damn fine (can I say that on this channel?) house music! This is one of their newest EPs, which I am pretty sure was exclusively an MP3 release. This might be the best house single I have heard in a few years. It's very pretty and really funky.

NARCOTIC THRUST - "Safe From Harm"







NARCOTIC THRUST - "Safe From Harm" (2002)



This is the infamous house single by Narcotic Thrust, featuring Yvonne John Lewis. There are so many variations of this single, last I counted there were 12 different versions. All with different mixes. So I grabbed the two that I actually own and threw them together. And I added a couple of different songs in the middle, just so you won't want to put a shotgun up to your head after the 7th remix in a row of the same track... Not that you'd really want to do that, this is a pretty groovy track. And catchy too. It'll be in your head late at night while you're trying to sleep, and that's when you'll get the shotgun! "I need... I need... I need protection!"

DEEE-LITE - "Groove Is In The Heart" (1990)




"How do you say delicious, delovely, delectible, devine? How do you say... Deee-Liiite?"

Yep, it's the club hit to end all club hits! The international smash that started the resurgence of the club/glamour scene, and maybe even helped to start house music! If that's not enough, it features Bootsy Collins, Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest, and Maceo Parker on the sax!

From the debut LP, "World Clique" which is to this day one of the Degrooviest albums ever!

DEEE-LITE - "E.S.P. & Good Beat"






DEEE-LITE - "E.S.P. & Good Beat" (1990)



Here is an extremely hard to find single from dance music pioneers, Deee-Lite! This is a double single, from their first release 'World Clique'. These mixes are cool - they add a little spice while keeping very true to the originals. Back when remixing was a fresh and new thing! This also contains the rarely-heard B-side, 'Riding On Through'.

Deee-Lite is Lady Miss Kier, Super DJ Dimitri, and Towa Tei.

***PLEASE NOTE - The cover I posted is of the Good Beat single, which did not contain the E.S.P. remixes, or the b-side "Riding On Through". Extensive searches for the combination cover turned out futile. If you have a cover photo, or know where I can get one, please contact me!

TELEPATHE - "I Can't Stand It/Chrome On It" (2008)



Not really a single, but two of my favorite tracks by this NYC band that is in the process of becoming extremely famous as I type this description! Imagine the Manson family on peyote. Amazing live shows, they just played at the SXSW Film Festival!

Telepathe is Melissa Livaudais, Busy Gangnes, Ryan Lucero & Lane Lacolla.

DISQUE 9 - "Des Uncurables"






DISQUE 9 - "Des Uncurables" (1997)




This is a really awesome and different album! Its not techno at all, but it was all made using a sampler. It is really experimental and unique and very very odd. It's right up my alley, but it's definitely not for everyone...

I picked this up at Egg City Radio, and since they did a good job explaining it (and because I'm feeling lazy), I'm going to let them do it for me:

This is one of those discs that I’m not surprised slipped through the cracks after it came out ten years ago. According to one review from a very un-updated music site called BabySue.com, the thing is a one-man effort from someone called Keith Fancy:

“Disque 9 sounds something like listening to two movies on cable while a radio is playing in the background and the refrigerator is on the blink. These are not songs in the traditional sense of the word. Mr. Fancy jumbles, distorts, and disassembles pieces of music in such a way that there really aren’t discipherable melodies or words. Instead, these songs are like fragments and snippets of songs all tied together in a most confusing manner. In the end, however, this obtuse little collection of ‘tunes’ doesn’t really sound like anything else I’ve heard of late…and for that alone, this gets high marks in the ‘land of the baby.’ Eerie and dream-like. Neat.”

HALLUCINOGEN - "Space Pussy/Thugs In Tye-Dye" (1996)



Here's an awesome single from psytrance guru Hallucinogen, aka Simon Posford. Hailing from England, he has the ability to hook your brain directly to his machines and tweak it into oblivion. This one is one of my favorites ever by him.
