Oh, Baby – I Like it Raw



Blk Jks - Lakeside
August 12th, 2008 / 9:58 pm No comments

I’m the first to admit that I’ve been a little bit slow on this one. But what a track! Blk Jks is a group from south africa who sounds like the perfect mix of A Mountain of One, Vampire Weekend and Bad Brains when they’re not playing hardcore or something (ok, that wasn’t the best comparison I’m afraid but it was the best I could come up with at the moment).

But check it out. The music is superp and their wardrobe aswell.

Al Stewart - Year of the Cat

Our friends over at Stephen Hawkings introduced me to this epic rock anthem last weekend. The gentlemen are pretty busy this summer. Every second Wednesday they visiting Debaser in Malmö and every Thursday, Friday and Saturday they dress up in chinos and Polo-shirts to spread their breazy version of rock and disco at Torso Twisted in Västra Hamnen. Let’s go swimming!

This could be one of the biggest miss match’s of voice, tune and looks in music history. But what a voice and what a tune. What a tune.

Hercules and love affair - You Belong

You should also look out for a killer minimal house remix of “You Belong” from no other than Chicago veteran Derrick Carter.

This could be the only good thing that have came out of the contemporary french house/electro scene since… well, “Music Sounds Better With You” or something. And no I’m not talking about the song. I’m talking about the video. My ex editor in chief at Rodeo writes about it here.

24:hours
April 28th, 2008 / 12:07 pm No comments

I was on a rollercoaster of ups’n’downs for 24 hours this weekend. First on Friday, a pretty boring PR-gig that later transformed to a real inspirational session with Malmö musician Sebastian Lilja. Then a tremendous concert with French reggae band The Dynamics. The next three hours or so included a visit to Deluxe at Jeriko and Klubb Kollo at KB who hosted Anton Qlint who played the forthcoming release of Jens Lekman on Rollerboys recordings. You better watch out for that one. It’s going to be huge.

Saturday was dedicated to some traditional crate digging involving everybody from yesterday. Emil Broomé of Stephen Hawkins, Simon Åberg of Deluxe, Jakob Hultman, Anton and myself where fighting over Will Powers, Annabel Lamb among others.

One good thing was that we finally managed to solve the mystery of that A Mountain of One-edit of Mott the Hoople that been bothering us since we first heard it because no one managed to get hold of a original copy of the song.

Now it seems that it wasn’t a Mott The Hoople track but a Ian Hunter solo recording that you probably could find on your local flea market for a dollar.

I leave out the bad things for now.
