With A Little Help From My Friends – II (Dynamicron Vultan)

Olof folO — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 20:25:39 +0000

This mix is the second installment of a series of mixes that I intend to put together, featuring various edit and remix artists’ work.

This set features the edit work of Dynamicron Vultan, a Madrid, Spain based producer and dj. Dynamicron’s edit work covers a wide swath of styles, including AOR, synth-pop and disco, something that really speaks to my dedication to good music, as opposed to just one style or another.

To find out more about what Dynamicron’s up to check out Dynamicron and his label Los Grandes that should have some interesting new things released during 2012.

Have a listen. With a little help from my friends, I’ll show you some things you’ll recognize and some things that will be new…

Led Zeppelin - Ten Years (Dynamicron Rework)
Exile – Kiss You All Over (Dynamicron Exclusive Edit for Musica Hermosa)

For the past some moths I have marveled at all the many talented edit artists that not only sharing their talents, but also are hard at work keeping music of by gone eras alive and well. To support their efforts I thought of putting together a few mixes highlighting various artists’ work. Kicking things off, this set is built around the work of Disco Tech, a Stockholm, Sweden, based producer and dj, with an obvious ear for really classic tunes.

Have a listen. With a little help from my friends, this set of tunes brings it home…

Jean Carne – My Love Don’t Come Easy (Disco Tech Edit)
The Chi-Lites – Inner City Blues (Disco Tech Edit)
Al Green - The Letter (Disco Tech Edit)
Curtis Mayfield – Trippin Out (Disco Tech Edit)
Freddie Scott - Got What I Need (Disco Tech Edit)
Carla Thomas & Otis Redding – Tramp (Hawk Edits Reboot)
Bill Withers – Grandma’s Hands (Disco Tech Edit)
George McCrae - Can’t Leave You Alone (Scratchandsniff‘s Extended Re-Rub)
Sylvia Robinson – Sweet Stuff (Disco Tech Edit)

Too Hot

Olof folO — Tue, 20 Sep 2011 19:56:01 +0000

Not too long ago, to get away from the cool Pacific Northwest summer, I took a trip to Kauai, Hawaii. In all it was a lovely affair, lazing about in the sand and water. While enjoying the sun and warmth, it did get me thinking (what doesn’t?). On the flight over I had read, in the in-flight magazine, that any plant that does not require a cold snap will grow on the island, and hence, bringing non-native spices can be really disruptive to the local flora. After a week of enjoying the island (truly, you should try it) I did come to the conclusion that; sure, it is lovely here, but I too require a cold snap.

As you can see, my lady also realized something. While on the island, sunscreen needs to be re-applied regularly.

Memoryman AKA Uovo – Sleepless Disco Night (Nicholas Remix)
Homework – Whipped Cream
Joseph Terruel – It’s Only Love Doing Its Thing
The Owl – Feel Good (Original Mix)
78 Edits - One Way
Odyssey - Hang Together (Keep Schtum Re-Edit)
Billy Ocean – European Queen (Rayko Remix)
Julien Clerc – Mangos (JT Edit)
