Nerve - EPs





Okay, check it. Jojo Mayer's band Nerve have a couple EPs on their website that are out of this world. I can't offer a download, unfortunately, but, you can listen to all the tracks on the site. There are pretty cheap digital downloads to be had, in FLAC too, so I can die with a smile on my face knowing that the good lord didn't gyp me.

Bukowski - Charles Bukowski Reads His Poetry




Artist - Charles Bukowski
Album - Charles Bukowski Reads His Poetry
Year - 1994
Vitals - 320kbps MP3 CBR

Let me tell you a secret. I went to the rare book library at the University of Alberta, and took out a $3500 Bukowski book called Heat Wave. It's all poems Bukowski wrote about how L.A was hot. And whores and horses and booze. It had a CD in it. I ripped it. Here it is. Bukowski reading short fiction. Awesome!

DJ Krush - Kakusei



Artist - DJ Krush
Album - Kakusei
Year - 1999
Vitals - 320kbps MP3 CBR

Mmm! Happy new year. What up?

This.

That's what.

Can you believe that this album is 11 years old? Krush is the man! He's been kicking since '94 (a stellar year in hip hop, so, it's not surprising), putting out some really killer, bizarre, distinct turntable grooves. This album has him taking a more lilted, broken feel. There's gold on this album, but it needs a bit of diggin'.

With Krush on the zigga zigga, can't get no bigga.

I'm going to upload more Krush this week. Stay tuned.

The King Khan & BBQ Show - The King Khan & BBQ Show


Ah, the majesty. The first of two records by the King Khan & BBQ Show and one of my favourite album covers I have seen in a very long time. For those who do not know King Khan: He is one mother fucking wild soul singing rock and roller from Montreal. His band King Khan and the Shrines have been rocking the European and North American scenes for the past ten years. I once heard a man say he was better than James Brown (but then quickly heard someone talk some sense into that man). For those who have not seen King Khan: his stage presence has the electricity of Bowie, except this is not an androgynous glittery British man, but rather a shirtless, turbanized, jewel incrusted Indian. Fear him. Fear his wrath. It is awesome. 

Alongside the supreme genius of King Khan is Mark Sultan, otherwise known as the masterful BBQ. He also plays the guitar as well as the drums (with his feet). A multitasking duo if I've ever seen one. I have to say, it's very impressive to see two dudes on stage in turbans commence a mosh pit while playing doo-wop music. Grab a partner and jump around.

George Harrison - Wonderwall

Sure Sure Sure.
It's been a while, has it not?
I assure you, it has been wholly worth it.
I bring to you a record from the depths of Beatles' consciousness;
an instrumental exploration by Hare Hare Harrison.
Fascinatingly, recorded while the boy's were still together.
Far-out.
Ahead of it's time.
Psychedelic as hell.
(a precursor to "electronica"
I'll leave the degree of influence to you.)

CooolJerk.

Paco De Lucía - El Duende Flamenco de Paco De Lucía


Some sweet nylon string sounds for you on a Monday morning. A young Paco De Lucia brings us a magical tale of modern flamenco that is great for both riding one's bicycle through a maritime boardwalk or banging out a spicy stir fry. Which ever you prefer on this monday morning. 

If I knew spanish I would yell something passionately in the language. 

Gulliver!

(touch the nun with your cursor and you shall receiveth the goods)


[Unfortunately, I just discovered that "Farolillo de Feria" has a minimal amount of skippage in it. I currently have no other copy of the record, but as soon as I hunt one down I shall salve this shattered track.]
