Jamaica to Toronto on Much tonight...

stop_33 — Mon, 19 Mar 2007 14:38:41 +0000

Jamaica to Toronto on The New Music...TV heads (any US cats get Much???)...Great exposure for the fellas and project (big cheers to Eric Alper!!!). Think the forthcoming Hour segment (CBC) will be more informative (not sure when it will run)...All the best, SipreanoHEAR THIS: JAMAICA TO TORONTOA blast from the past is the best way to describe the album Jamaica to Toronto. The album compiles the work and tells the story of reggae and funk artists who migrated from Jamaica to Toronto in the late 60???s and early 70???s. Matte Babel hooked up with a few of the lost legends of reggae, funk and soul and also talked to the man that compiled all these hidden gems.MuchMusic:Monday, March 19, 2007 @ 9:30pm & 1:30am ET, Monday, March 26, 2007 @ 12:30pm ETCitytv: Saturday, March 24, 2007 @ 1:30pm ET

Happy Jazz Show - March 2007 - show 2

magsonjazz — Mon, 19 Mar 2007 15:39:33 +0000

The next edition of the Happy Jazz show is now up and WHAT A SHOW!!! This month we focus heavily on the sounds of Cuba courtesy of the fantastic compilation from Canada's very own Dan Zacks of www.WAXINGDEEP.ORG. Dan has very kindly supplied us with a copy of his CD entitled Si, Para Usted : The Funky Beats of Revolutionary Cuba Vol.1 - A 17 track thoroughbred of great music available direct from his site for $19. Anyway, enough of the sales pitch, check out the tracks from such diverse styles as Son, Guaguanco, Mambo and Descarga and from such greats as Celiz Cruz and Beny More in our special first hour. We also pay a tribute to the late great Cuban trumpeter Rolando Aguilo who sadly passed away on the 9th of March. We send our condolences to his family and friends but promise that his music will live on. Please feel free to pass on your respects at his tribute page....www.myspace.com/rolandoaguiloThe second hour see's Mark continuing with some Cuban flavour. Some hand picked rolled smokers from Bobby Carcasses and Chucho Valdes from the Areito Egrem label. Mark also lays down some fine music from the great Azymuth and Eumir Deodato who both recently appeared at London's Jazz Cafe. There's an exclusive cheeky re-edit of Eliana Pittman's Minais Gerais's by Dj Kuh, great new music from Earth Leakage Trip, Dalindeo, Native and DJ Day PLUS some soul from Beloyd and Fathers Children.

THE BOOGOOS - Bubbles Part 1/2 OUT NOW

tobiaskirmayer — Sat, 17 Mar 2007 21:28:53 +0000

Tramp Records proudly presents the first 7??? single release byTHE BOOGOOS ??? Bubbles Pt.1 / Pt.2 (Tr-1007)***Afro-Blue-Eyed-Soul***The 13 members of the big afro-funk group ???The Boogoos??? are at home in Munich, Germany, but their sound has definitely other sources:They are deeply rooted in African funk music by the likes of Fela Kuti or Hugh Masekela, but as well influenced by american soul, funk and jazz of the sixties and seventies. Out of these influences they forge their own unique sound, that can??t be found anywhere else.Singer Zsolt Tokaji wrote this heavy grooving and also beautiful song called ???Bubbles???.The original studio take lasts for more than 6 minutes, so we had to cut it for the 45 rpm release into two parts. Listen to the strong horn-lines of the five (!) horn-players, the tight rhythm section and the amazing vocals of Zsolt in Part One.Part Two kicks off with an amazing breakbeat intro, exposing the skills of the percussion players, until it comes to the grand finale.The Boogoos includes members of the original Poets of Rhythm, The Hi-Fly Orchestra and The Express Brass Band. All those bands have released several LPs/CDs in the field of funk, latin, brazil and traditional new orleans-jazz.OUT NOW!Listen to it here:Bubbles Part 1www.tramprecords.com/sound/45/tr-1007_a.ramBubbles Part 2www.tramprecords.com/sound/45/tr-1007_b.ramLabel artwork:www.tramprecords.com/img/artists/label_tr1007.jpgTramp RecordsTobias KirmayerSonnenstr. 385777 FahrenzhausenGermany[email]info@tramprecords.com[/email]www.tramprecords.com

MASTA ACE :: NEW ARTICLE @ GLmag :: SLAUGHTAHOUSE

TREW — Mon, 12 Mar 2007 17:15:09 +0000

NEW REWIND at groundliftmag.com[/b]Some cats have flows, but no concepts. Other cats got concepts but they're too pretentious. Ace is that rare combination of unassuming style, sharp wit, and straight-up heart that never comes off as flashy, corny, or overly-preachy. That, and he can never be accused of haphazardly throwing songs together and calling it an album. While I'm opposed to using the phrase "concept album" in relation to his work, his full-length efforts have a guiding theme that causes his songs to make sense with one another, more so than many similar efforts of the day.MASTA ACE[/b]
