The albums 'Nouvelle Chair' and 'Echantillodrome' established Lilea Narrative as a mainstay of electro hip hop in France. Lilea Narrative now hammers it home with new EP 'Feline Boulevard'. Lilea Narrative invites us on a trip along this mysterious boulevard with six classy, punchy tracks. Blockbass's musical scratching, still in place, gives dynamics to the effective rhythmic constructions interrupted by groovy breaks and cuts.

£5.99
In Stock
Prince Fatty Meets The Mutant Hifi in 'Return of Gringo!' is the fevered and frontal lobe-damaged brainchild of Nick Coplowe (The Mutant Hifi) and Mike Pelanconi (Prince Fatty), the result of years of plotting, planning, laughing and procrastinating. Put simply, it is a surf/ska/spaghetti western soundtrack album for a film that is yet to be made. Think Dick Dale jamming with the Skatalites with Morricone at the helm, including appearances from Alessandro Alessandroni (the original spaghetti western whistler) and you're in the right section at the record store, although it is possibly a very small section.

This inaugural release on PRISM comes courtesy of Jon Phonics. An instrumental, progressive project which is a nod to his more left field influences, forging elements of electronica, 2 step and in his own words 'tropical um bongo bass music'. BIG!

Carl “Sherlock” Holmes started gigging in the early sixties forming Carl Holmes & the Commanders with whom he recorded a full length album for Atlantic in 1962 entitled 'Twist Party At The Roundtable'. Later on he recorded a couple of 45’s for the Parkway and Verve labels. After a final 45 for the local Philly label Black Jack, the group disbanded and Carl formed the Sherlock Holmes Investigation a solid outfit backed by a strong rhythm section packed with congas, vibes, flute, organ and sax. Philly’s Sigma Sound Studio was the place they recorded their sole album and Curtis R. Staten’s CRS Records was the label that released it. These two tunes are available on 45RPM single for the very first time.

In ‘60s Europe a distinctive, European jazz sound began to develop that combined traditional music from across Europe and around the world with the creative freedom so abundant in American jazz. Over time the most forward-thinking creative talents of the post-Coltrane European jazz generation crafted and nurtured sophisticated and multi-faceted styles of jazz that were as radical as they were beautiful, giving modern jazz a characteristically European flavour. This double LP is a heady mix of stirring jazz overtures with orchestra and choir, modal montages inspired by pilgrimages to Asia and Africa, experiments in rhythm and sound where modern jazz meets traditional Balkan and Flamenco folk music. This is Spiritual Jazz – European style.

7 Inch Boxset
=
£14.99
In Stock
The Blue Rhythm Combo from Barbados produced some of the heaviest funk records to come out of the Caribbean in the early ‘70s – crossing the local Spouge rhythm with a heavy dose of American styled funk and soul. This 7" triple pack brings together six of their heaviest tracks from the early to mid-‘70s, culled from their releases on the famed Merrydisc label and a later single on WIRL that showcases their later and more soulful sound. Complete with liner notes telling the story of the band and some unseen pics, this is as close to Caribbean funk as you’ll get without catching the plane and going there yourself. Highly recommended!

Neko Neko takes time out from recording his debut album (due for release in 2012) to drop two very different reworks for your record box…On 'Trouble In The Streets' he expertly revisits a jazzy groover, shifting it up a few gears further into proper dance floor territory with heavy drums, percussion and a catchy-as-hell vocal chant! On the flip Neko Neko’s MPC gets possessed by the spirit of circa ’93 boom bap as he remixes an anti-playa anthem. Honky-tonk pianos, horns and boom bap drums all make for a worthy update of this stone cold classic! Hand-stamped, limited edition white label 12”.

£7.99

Blue eyed MC Matt Lucas was desperate to show he could handle recording a Soul record and was sent around Detroit to "pick up the vibe" by producer Ollie McLaughlin. By the time he settled into United Sounds Studios a few weeks later to record the simply great "You Better Go Go" he had certainly learnt all about the Motor City sound. Music is from The Funk Brothers, the song by the legendary Richard "Popcorn" Wylie and the exquisite femme backing vocals come from The Charmaines. As Matt says "Wind It Up Baby"....simply one of the most infectious dance records to be made in the magical place that was Detroit back then. Demand for this is huge - only 500 made, one-sided and etching on the flip.

£7.99
In Stock
This is the first time the Lou Courtney gem has ever been released legally on seven inch single. It was discovered as an LP only track by the Northern Soul scene in the early 70's and instantly bootlegged. Ironically it turns out that it was planned as a 45 in the 60's as a trawl through Robert's archives by Inferno has come up with the pre-release acetate! The Webs track has been steadily building up a rep as a top dancer at "Not The Northern Soul Top 500" venues over the last 5 years. It is written and produced by Bateman - Courtney and demonstrates how on top of the game they were when it came to making great Soulful dance records!

Recorded right at the end of the ’40s, ‘Carnival Day’, Bartholomew’s mardi gras anthem, is the kind of record which encapsulates how unique the City’s sound and musical heritage is, and how ahead of the curve its musicians were. A riotous gumbo stew of heavily syncopated Caribbean rhythms and laid back Southern swagger, it’s one of Dave’s very best! ‘Cat Music’, recorded a few years on, is just as it says, cool, jiving sounds for hep cats - as Dave sings, ’We don’t dig a Square!’

LaVern Baker was one of the ruling queens of Rhythm & Blues through the ’50s, a singer who had a knockout voice, oodles of charm and plenty of feminine sass to spare. ‘Love Me Right’ is just about the perfect record for the dance floor. Slightly uptempo for most popcorn nights, this is a driving, swinging R&B number with incredible riffs and an irresistible vocal turn. ‘Tiny Tim’ on the flip needs little pitch adjustment, this one is slow and decidedly slinky as LaVern is joined by the barritone-voiced Jimmy Ricks for a brazenly suggestive duet where the pair discuss who’s wearing the trousers, so to speak. Highly recommended!
