Sixteens - The Glacier (Demos) Review by Avicus Jan 03, 2010
these notes are rubbish!!! it's not demos, it's a self released album!! The front cover is Louise Gas (Kristen), the singer!

Don't know where you people get these ideas from!
Cormega - Born And Raised Review by truGrap Jan 03, 2010
Cormega is my favorite rapper. He is one of the most talented, skilled, true, hardcore rappers I ever heard. Though he is the most under-rated rapper in the game, Mega holds his own and continues to impress me album by album. Mega combines articulation, style and gangster with creative imagination and his personal street history, making him one of the most critically acclaimed Mc's of his time.
James Lavelle - FabricLive. 01 Review by Tennant Jan 03, 2010 (edited about 6 hours ago)
The long tracklisting should've been a good enough warning. But I went ahead and bought this to check out what the Fabric series what up to. Believe me, this mix album is awful. It sounds like an iTunes playlist filled full of garage and hip hop and the occasional mainstream track (Radiohead), thrown together. The mixing is bad and the album has no character or direction whatsoever. Which is a shame, since Lavelle has produced some decent albums; namely his entries in the Global Underground series and this album is enough to put you off him forever.
Quarteto Novo - Quarteto Novo Review by RavellsRecordExpress Jan 03, 2010 (edited about 6 hours ago)
The absolute holy grail recording for Brazilian jazz, this long out of print album is a must for any lover of Brazilian folk music, Samba, and Jazz from Brazil. A super-group of musicians who would bring the music of Brazil to a world-wide audience in the years to come, this recording documents the beginning of the careers of Airto Moreira - percussionist with Miles Davis and Chick Corea, and Husband and main collaborator to Brazilian vocalist Flora Purim-; Hermeto Pascoal - Multi-instrumentalist/Composer and side man with such notable musicians as Miles Davis(who called Pascoal his most important influence), Cal Tjader, Egberto Gismonte and Donald Byrd among others; Heraldo Do Monte, one of Brazil's most famed masters of the guitar; and Theo De Barres, renowned bassist and guitarist.
This extremely important album was one of the earliest to mix influences from traditional Brazilian folk forms with Jazz sensibilities. It is also credited as one of the first Brazilian albums to feature compositions using odd time signatures in a Samba feel.
Out of print since the mid 70's, it has been re-issued to the south american market. Still hard to find, but well worth the trouble. (jayhay)
Electrotete - Shark / Alcatraz Review by Krankjoris Jan 03, 2010 (edited about 7 hours ago)
Rating: 4/5

Electrotete or better known as Juno Reactor deliver one of my favourite tunes here; B-side Alcatraz is a old school goa tune with a nice "gypsy violins" twist thrown in. This track also appears on Paul Oakenfolds classic "Goa Mix" (part of BBC's Essential Mix series) from 1994.
The A-side Shark is a fine ambient track, which would reappear a couple of years later as the closing track of Juno Reactor's 1997 album Bible Of Dreams. Nice but as good as Alcatraz with which it shares a few similarities.
Walter Strerath - Trio Quartet Quintet Review by RavellsRecordExpress Jan 03, 2010 (edited about 7 hours ago)
Legendary Modern Jazz album from Germany and the true holy grail of European LPs. First session recording by the internationally awarded pianist Walter Strerath and his brilliant sidemen from 1969, originally released with a beautiful silk-screen printed cover on the tiny “Jazz Groove” label in an edition of a few hundred copies only. Outstanding self penned tunes by the trio and Hans Thomas (trumpet/ fluegelhorn) plus Christian Lindner (saxes). A monument of a jazz album with originals booking in at 3.000$ on ebay. Remastered 2008, 1:1 fold out cover (punched!) with original liner notes.

Modern Jazz will never die and it doesn`t smell funny anymore: The original vinyl pressing of "Walter Strerath - Trio Quartet Quintet" reached the highest amounts of all sold records in December 2008 on ebay.com, in third place and priced at 3.000$ behind two vintage albums of the Beatles and Pink Floyd. For many years the biggest international jazz collectors have tried to hunt down this first album by a commonly unknown (and nearly forgotten) jazz pianist from the small German village named Odenkirchen. The original album was manufactured in a tiny edition of 200 copies only and is impossible to find nowadays.

The unique LP contains 100% of self penned tunes and stands out as some brilliant Coltranish style jazz from Europe, many dare to say the only REAL one of its kind. The usual Walter Strerath Trio performed regionally since the mid 60s and their line-up was enhanced with trumpet, fluegelhorn and saxes just for this recording session. No other jazz album from Europe is heavier in demand than this masterpiece of modern jazz by an excellent but unknown band, recorded in the tranquil German town Iserlohn.

Now Sonorama Records comes up with a 1:1 repressing of this vanished album - exactly 40 years after the original release saw the light of day on Karlheinz Klueters` legendary "jazz groove" label. The reissue label payed attention to a nearly identical reproduction of the (formerly silk screen-printed) gatefold cover in silver and grey colour and with original center punch. All original recordings were carefully mastered and even the CD cover adapts the exceptional artistic design by Uwe Loesch and Juergen Hillmer from Duesseldorf, appearing very close to the original artwork.

Walter Strerath earned himself the reputation as one of the best jazz pianists from Europe. The talented boy developed a deeper interest for jazz after his classical piano education and imagined the foundation of his own trio. He soon became enthusiastic about the records by Oscar Peterson and attended the concerts of many big American artists in Germany. As early as 1958 Walter Strerath presented his first solo performances. He also joined the popular Jazzbandballs and even became a member of the regional jazz club in Moenchengladbach, but still worked in his usual job as an industrial manager. Between 1963 and 1967 he collected several national awards as an amateur and performed at the Friedrich-Gulda-Festival in Vienna. This time a jury around the great Duke Ellington voted him for the best jazz pianist of the festival. After the trios` second place at the amateur festival in Zuerich, the musicians started extensive touring in many European countries. Then a new trio formation recorded the second and final album "Fly to Brazil" in 1975, on which the musicians cultivated their very own style of bossa nova jazz. Walter Strerath passed away completely unexpected at the age of 39, due to a heart attack on the 23rd of September 1981. A South American tour was already organized for 1982 but could not happen anymore because of his sudden death.

Frankie Francis / Simbad - Fiesta Angola Review by RavellsRecordExpress Jan 03, 2010 (edited about 6 hours ago)
The second summer scorcher from the Sofrito crew covering the hottest tropical dancefloor sounds from Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean! Fiesta Angola sees Sofrito’s resident studio wizard Frankie Francis go head to head with Simbad (Raw Fusion) to sprinkle a little magic on some classic ‘70s Angolan sounds – inimitable Semba and merengue rhythms with a little twist. Housed in heavy manila sleeves with stickers and on 180 gram vinyl. [press info]
Fred Baker vs. Nyram - Confirmation Review by Mr.Slacker Jan 03, 2010 (edited about 8 hours ago)
A jewel in the crown of ITWT and Magik Muzik. "Confirmation" was rocking the dancefloor in Tiësto In Concert 2004, and became one of my all-time favorites ever since.
The B-Side, "Recognition", has a more bright and uplifting side to it, and feels overly joyful, while "Confirmation" is more pensive and transcendental but still melodic and not yet truly dark.
I would praise Fred Baker and Nyram for this release alone.
5/5.
the ressurection mix is fat.i totally want it.
Yggdrasil (9) - Prose Edda Review by Mr.Papaya Jan 02, 2010 (edited about 3 hours ago)
Yggdrasil introduce us with this debut album into a pretty exclusive genre in psychedelic music called "Shpongle music". Only a handful of artists come to mind that match this style, amongst them are Androcell, Shulman, Entheogenic and Zymosis. It's typical for combining live instrumental samples with vocals and digital effects under a psychedelic production of the highest caliber. And, indeed, there's not a single second in this album that feels like it didn't get hours of meticulous attention: everything is very well put together and fussed about. Maybe even too much.

While the Shpongle influences resound clearly in some of the tracks (Sausage & Everyone) they do not feel like a rip off, introducing authentic Brazilian music and mellow dub tunes into the cauldron. The entire album sparkles with creativity in true psychedelic spirit. The tracks tend to build up to a certain melody and then plunge into chaos and undecipherable sounds over and over, creating quite an intoxicating yet well balanced experience. Some tracks (Headfoam & Amazing) are prime example of a such successful coordination.

On the other hand, this formula lends a vague atmosphere to Prose Edda: As each of the tracks is methodically produced, excelling both in terms of effects and melodic composition, Yggdasil seems to have focused more on the micro than the macro, creating a somewhat indistinct story to the album as a whole. Even after many times listening to it, it's hard for me to identify every track from another. There is something very compact to the style and resonance of them all that might appeal to some and bore others. The tracks don't sound the same but they lack a certain individuality (Headfoam & Meat). Amazing Ganjes, on the other hand, is a remarkable piece of music.

Yggdrasil show a lot of potential both as musicians and technicians. The eclectic assembly of styles and the top psychedelic production take their music to their highest levels, making it quite unique and imaginative. As their sound will surely continue to mature and evolve we are bound to see them push the bar even higher. Prose Edda is a wonderful debut album that stands out in this particular genre, promising great success in the future. This is not an easy-listening album for everybody, but it has the qualities that can make it many's favorite. It's certainly worth checking out.
Aphex Twin, The* - Classics Review by Dimitri_Ostrovitch Jan 02, 2010 (edited about 15 hours ago)
Richard D James is in the nineties a completely original artist. Aphex Twin is of course a beats-focused music, but in a weird way, with strange sound effects applied on the percussions, always on the tightrope with noise. He roughly can also be seen as a pioneer of the actual breakcore and noisecore styles.
This "classics" cd is a collection of songs already released elsewhere (the first four are on the "didgeridoo ep", the following four are on the "xylem tube ep", and "metapharstic" was released on the compilation "mayday a new chapter of house & techno 92". If you don't know Aphex twin (we never knows...) get this and go directly to the following key tracks : isopropanol, phlange phace & dodeccaheedron.
Listening to these tracks is like being on a trip to an unknown and mysterious destination, but already hostile.

Overall a very good collection. Recommended.
Lycia - Ionia Review by Dimitri_Ostrovitch Jan 02, 2010 (edited about 15 hours ago)
This album is about human weakness and regrets. In the first track, a man see his will dragged down by a thing called Ionia.
Even if Ionia is personified (MvP is talking about her face and her grin) it doesn't suit the general mood of the album to think she is a woman. It rather reminds me a lot of Oscar wilde "I can resist everything except temptation", that Ionia must be a symbol of temptation. I'm really fond of Portfleet's vision of music and art, you can't find a single track of that man that isn't serious as hell. Poetic without being naive, depressed without being angry (which is extremely rare and almost makes his music unique), that album has all arguments of a masterpiece, despite of having been roughly produced (related to his equipment at that time). The second track without the vocals could have been on a silent hill soundtrack, and songs like "november, monsoon II" fit very well the mood of the music from "legacy of kain blood omen".
I strongly recommend this album for all the openminded music lovers out there, it's just a pity the work of that guy (moreover who has had to deal with diabetes all his career long) isn't more known. He is definitely to put among too many good artists who haven't really the popularity they deserve.
Brommage Dub - Funky Badja Review by RavellsRecordExpress Jan 02, 2010 (edited about 7 hours ago)
Wonderful future jazz / jazztech production, if you like Kirk Degiorgio, Ian O' Brien, As One, Carl Craig, Recloose, Jazz & Detroit.. you will surely feel B1 (original version) & be drifting outerspace [rr]
Slope - Para Los Pinchas Review by RavellsRecordExpress Jan 02, 2010 (edited about 16 hours ago)
One from my Dubster's Delite crate; kind of forgotten tracks that are circa 65 / 130 bpm. Ingredients: electronica, tension & a lot of Dub (artificial space), less techno than today, more groove, but can be very gloomy too. UK-Germany-Vienna connection. Just let it slip into your mixtape & impress your friends. "What the h*ll was that track at the end mate"!?

When it was released it was marketed as headz, breakbeat or even nujazz. For those who like to dig or those who thought that it all just started with "Midnight Request Line"..
