“Godsville” brings together two Bronx Hip Hop legends; KRS-ONE and Showbiz. Showcasing a production style that is currently featured on projects by Joe Budden, Fabolous, Royce Da 5’9”, Lloyd Banks and others, Showbiz (producer of classic Hip Hop hits such as “Soul Clap” and “Sound of the Police”) provides a classic yet fresh Bronx production style while KRS-ONE takes it back to the essence of Hip Hop with lyrical contributions equal to those on classic KRS-ONE albums. Recent album reviews are calling this project a “modern classic” and “what Hip Hop has been missing.”

When Boogie Down Productions’ DJ/producer/hypeman D-Nice went solo in 1990, the world wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Taking over as KRS-One’s DJ after Scott La Rock’s murder in 1987, D-Nice was a relative unknown, despite having played a part in the group’s classic albums By All Means Necessary and the follow-up Edutainment. Setting out to make his name as an independent artist, he delivered Call Me D-Nice, an album that abandoned BDP’s militant political rhetoric in favor of a fun, upbeat attitude that played to his strengths: witty and boastful rhymes backed by funky, sample-based beats. The album yielded a #1 hit with the title track (along with “Crumbs On the Table”, which made the Top 20) and proved that D-Nice could do much more than just play the background. Out of print for over 20 years, D-Nice’s debut album Call Me D-Nice returns in an expanded edition housed in a 6-panel digipak featuring original and extended artwork with liner notes for the bonus cuts written by Noah Uman. Extended Audio includes 2 non-album cuts (produced by Scott La Rock) as well as 12" mixes and instrumentals previously unavailable on CD format. Also includes the 12" singles "Glory" and "The TR 808 Is Coming."

By the time he released Ital Dub in 1975, Augus- tus Pablo was already a household name in Jamaica. He was fresh off the success of his album Rebel Rock Reggae, and about to enter the most prolific period of his career with legendary dub engineer King Tubby, this being their first collaboration. Recorded and mixed by Tubby at his studio, Ital Dub, produced by Tommy Cowan and Warwick Lyn, features Pablo lending his signature melodica work to originals (“Eli’s Move,” “Shake Up”) and covers from Bob Marley (“Rebel Music,” “Natty Dread”), Peter Tosh (“Funeral”) and Junior Byles (“Curly Locks,” “Irie Feelings”). Overlooked at the time of its initial release, Ital Dub has since been recognized as a worthy entry in Pablo’s stellar catalog and “one of the most innovative albums of the decade” (AllMusic.com). After producing top quality reissues from Lee “Scratch” Perry and King Tubby, Get On Down is proud to present another Jamaican dub classic, featuring a new digital audio transfer from the original analog tapes.

A Classic Soul Album From A Very Underrated Singer!

Caroline’s Crawford’s career first began at the age of 15 on Motown Records where she recorded loads of songs but released relatively few! She re-surfaced on Philadelphia International in the early ‘70s with one brilliant single and a completely unreleased album, which stayed in the can as a result of disagreements with Gamble & Huff. An uncompromising singer, she teamed up with Hamilton Bohannon and sang background on his hits “South African Man”, “Foot Stomping’ Man” and “Summertime Groove”. Bohannon wrote, produced, arranged and directed the seven cuts. All Music Guide’s Andrew Hamilton writes: “His patented rhythmic, shuffling sound interspersed with some KEY SELLING POINTS: ballads make this an extension of his ”Summertime Groove” album which featured • First time ever on CD. Crawford’s vibrant vocals. This is good. • Remastered from the original Mercury analog tapes. Mercury’s neglect kept this album from improving • Packaged in Japanese style laminated their bottom line or Crawford’s career, in spite of paste on jacket, with full color inner sleeve, infectious ditties like “Tell Me You’ll Wait” OBI and poly outer. “Coming On Strong,” and “Caroline • Produced by Hamilton Bohannon.

Fabrice, 17 years old, is a minet, or to say it better, a mod from one of the posh neighborhoods, the 16th district in Paris and such “golden ghettoes” as Auteuil, Neuilly and Passy. Fab’ likes to have his “ronron at the Drugstore”, as Dutronc sang it (an untranslatable wordplay on ronron, “cat food”, and a minet - “a kitten” - purring). Fabrice attends Henri IV prestigious high-school; his father, a businessman who made a fortune selling plastic flowers, and his mother, a former model from Jacques Fath, are never home – a cosy home indeed! With his Weston shoes, a slim-fitting suit by Renoma and his haircut modelled on those of Anglo-Saxons musicians appearing on French Eps, Fabrice dreams of Carnaby Street and the Sunset Strip. He is not alone: there’s his sister Stéphanie, 16, who wears a fringe, a mock Courrèges dress, a pink Shetland pullover and white boots. Stéphanie reads Salut Les Copains and Mademoiselle Age Tendre, which both fuel her passion for Françoise Hardy, Zouzou, Twiggy and the Beatles. The Groove Club is happy to present twenty-two records that we dug out as a tribute to Fabrice’s kinky faves. We imagine those magic years 1966-71 (with two inclusions from 1976 & 77) to have been as you can hear it here — truly decadent pop-sike, as beautiful as the cathedral of Evry... whether it's the arch-hippie Lolita taking us beyond the limits of pop music, singing songs which make one dream of Anicée Alvina riding her bicycle in a red dress... or whether it's sunny and stunning, or brooding and tinged with sadness. And we sense that, paradoxical as it may seem, although we have imagined a parallel cosmos to the Grande Heures of pop culture, we are not far from the truth. Popisme fantastique!

Returning to their huge old school sound, this new recording AURORA celebrates 35 years of Azymuth as “arguably the most successful band to come out of Brazil”. The signature swing samba is heavier than ever with a string of unforgettable tunes: from dance-floor fillers and lush jazz to hard, grooving samba funk and warped psychedelia. Together the original three piece Azymuth orchestra has made their strongest album since the seminal recordings ‘Azimuth’ and ‘Light as a Feather’. Discover why musicians as diverse as Friendly Fires and Madlib are addicted to this innovative boogie monster.

Aurora The follow-up to 2008’s ‘Butterfly’ draws on the sound that was so synonymous with their work in the 1980s, mixing disco, jazz, funk, psych, and samba with their super style, playing, and improvisation. Together with producer Daniel Maunick and David Brinkworth CAT NUMBER: FARO157LP (Harmonic 313), Azymuth recorded Aurora in Rio de Janeiro over a RELEASE DATE: 5/3/2011 LP BARCODE: 5060065337355 two week period.

In 2009 a close-knit collective of London-based musicians - Jesse Hackett (keys), Louis Hackett (bass), Sam Lewis (guitar), Chris Morphitis (bouzouki/guitar) and Tom Skinner (drums) - first arrived in Nairobi. They were brought to Kenya's capital in order to collaborate with local musicians as part of a project established by an Tracklisting organization called Art of Protest which aims to promote local Kenyan musicians and rappers. Art of Protest introduced the London faction to Joseph Nyamungu, a 1.Gone Thum Mana phenomenal player/teacher of the nyatiti (an 8-string lyre) whose scope of knowledge Gi Nyadhi of the traditional music of the Luo tribe is unparalleled. The sessions with Joseph and 2. Odera Lwar Charles Owoko, a drummer specializing in traditional Luo rhythms developed into something unique, fresh and full of verve - a Nairobi meets London sound clash. 3. Wires 4. Margaret Okudo The five London-based musicians, who have been friends since their school days, (Dub) draw on a broad spectrum of African influences, from Fela Kuti and Tony Allen to the likes of Thomas Mapfumo and Oumou Sangare. “What I heard when I first played 5. Hera Owiny Sigoma Band on the radio was a phat, wayward dance record with African 6. Doyoi Nya Jo Nam leanings and it just felt completely right,” explains Gilles Peterson. 7.Owegi Owandho On reconvening with Joseph and Charles on a second trip to Nairobi in May 2010, (Solo) the group had now grown to a 10-piece big band, with Joseph inviting many other 8.Nabed Nade Ei musicians to join the proceedings. A two-day session at the Kenya National Theatre Piny Ka (Rework) then culminated in the forthcoming self-titled album – a collection of gloriously loose Afro grooves symbolic of the true culture clash between the Luo and London. The 9.Here On The Line founder of Gorillaz and Afrika Express, Damon Albarn, even gives the project his 10.Rapar Nyanza personal blessing, popping up on organ duties on the sprightly ‘Odera Lwar’ and ‘Margaret Okudo (Dub)’.

Following their “Well Heeled Sampler” (SPEC006) REVERSO 68 drops their mix cd.

"REVERSO 68 is the studio based project of producer/djs Pete Herbert and Phil Mison. The two met many moons ago whilst Phil was a resident at the Cafe Del Mar in Ibiza and bought records from Pete who was running record shops in Soho, London at the time, just before he opened the infamous Atlas Records vinyl emporium. As well as djing extensively around the globe for the last decade and more recently working together ..(the duo have also recorded an album as Frontera for Music for Dreams out in Spring 2006).... they have also both recorded and released their own projects, Phil as Cantoma with Music For Dreams, and Pete as Bakazou and as part of LSB and Optimus for Eskimo Recordings and their offshoot Suicide and as Cuica for Ubiquity Records,California. Over the last few years Reverso 68 have released 'Piece Together' on Pete's label Specialist Interests as well as various remixes including reworks for Juan Maclean (DFA), Manhead (Relish), Bent (Ministry) and Stratus (Klein) to name a few..(see Discography). The REVERSO 68 sound could be descibed as a deep mix of Balearic disco and spaced out,melodic electronics made with the dancefloor in mind but definately a listening pleasure for all occasions.

By chance, one day in 1948, while shopping for records with her mother and her sister, she meets an Italian singer, Teddy Reno. He is also the owner of a Record Company, the CGD. Jula's mother mentions to him her daughter's contralto voice, her passion for jazz and for the French new wave of songs, and her admiration for Mo. Lelio Luttazzi, a young and very talented pianist and conductor, under contract with the CGD. Almost as a joke, Teddy makes an appointment for Jula to audition with Lelio Luttazzi. The audition turns into a jam session and immediately afterwards, Teddy Reno signs the young singer with CGD.

Ms.de Palma was the only Italian singer who was on the same level with the great American and French entertainers of her time, singing the same songs in the same languages, but never copying, always being an original. Her modernization of the Italian song paved the way for a new generation of Italian singers after her to be accepted internationally, and she is recognized by many for this achievement. She is happy and grateful for the spontaneous creation of a website about her by young and enthusiastic people and she says "When I punch in "Jula de Palma" and I see my name come up, thirty years after I stopped singing, on the most faraway websites of the world, I am still surprised." She shouldn't be, because Jula de Palma is still considered, today, a myth. www.juladepalma.com www.sonorama.de www.grooveattack.com
