chango - the last ride/meeting of the gods

Changos was a tribe of native South Americans who appear to have originally inhabited the Peruvian coast and spread south to the coast of Atacama, in northern Chile and further south. They lived from fishing, gathering shellfish, and hunting sea lions. In former times they used rafts of inflated sealskins, lived in sealskin huts, and slept on heaps of dried seaweed.

This on the other hand is a santana ish kind of band, with some great material like the songs below.

Lugnet - Gyllene snittet

Here's a new one from local edit heroes and co bloggers Lugnet records. This time it's a local punk band that been edited. I like this a lot, and I especially like that they are digging were they are standing. In the so bördiga skånska myllan.

DOWNLOAD HERE

and the beautiful picture is from Johan sundell. Also a local hero. Check him out here

osamu - purple hills and crystal steams

So here it is. A nice balearic ethno jazz fusion track from Osamu. A great find from co stephen hawkings fellow Emil. Graziaz!

rose royce - sunrise

Here's a great track of the car wash soundtrack. This works well in a sunrise as the title suggests and on a monday morning. Balearic soft disco... mjau

esther ofarim and abraham - that's my song

Another week. This will be a nice one. Tonight we have a jean michell jarre concert, and then I'm of to barcelona a few days. I'll hopefuly return with some new music for the blog...

But today we keep it soft.

Martin Circus - Disco Circus

I haven't really got that much new records lately so I've been diggin in the archives for some nice classic tracks.
And this is one of those old classic tracks I used to play when I played disco disco. Sort of started to play this one again, but nowdays from the psycedellic break. Does miracles for the dancefloor.

TGIF!

Santa esmeralda - Just give me some of your loving

A nice rockflamencodisco thing here from the B side of Santa Esmeraldas House of the rising sun 12".

Thanks!

A big thanks to everyone who turned up on thursday for the Walpurgisnacht party. A big thanks to Richard Norris. Nice to see you again! I hope you had just as a wonderful time as we did. Lot's of dance, concerts, love tipis, eggs, fire and costumes.

Graziaz!

Vidderna - Dubbelliv

When I opened my inbox today we had this little nugget from Vidderna. A local malmö based duo consisting of Markus Clemmedson & Niklas Tjäder. Lovely stuff and nice vocals from Markus. A bit reminiscent of Black Sabbath but actually a sample from Hoola Bandoola band. Also a local prog rock band but from the 70's. So very much localy produced, recycled and fairly ecological.

Stephen Hawkings Walpurgisnacht på Babel Tors 30/4

Walpurgisnacht

På Valborg, dvs Torsdagen den 30/4 presenterar Klubb Kristallen och Stephen Hawkings Walpurgisnacht - en fullspäckad natt på Babel med onda ritualer och massvis med intryck.

Richard Norris från Beyond the wizards sleeve kommer och hälsar på från det ockulta landet England. Hans svarta väska är full av psykedeliska danslåtar och nya remixer.

Lokala krautrockhjältarna Cassetto spelar musik för raksträckor i
mörker. Fjorton synthar, en automatiserad trummis och mullrande bas.

Skampålen spelar live och kombinerar konserten med en ond performance på temat walpurgisnacht.

Galleri Loyal visar filmerna "The Black Sabbath Movie" sammansat och producerad av Christy Karacas. I filmen har 40 konstnärer gjort var sin 1-minut lång video till den 40 minuter långa skivan Paranoid, samt filmen Best off med Woop Dee Doo.

Lokalen pyntas och förmörkas i sann Kristallen-anda för hednisk och
hypnotisk dans & tipis ställs upp för alla disco-indianer.

Självklart varvas allt detta med hypnotisk dansmusik från Kristallen och Stephen Hawkings.


Vi föreslår att du kommer tidigt så du kan ta del av hela härligheten.

Julie Felix - Oh to hold you in my arms

Friday again. Really nice and warm weather here in malmö. About 15 ° I would say. And with weather like that the music becomes more acoustic, hippy & happy. Just like me, except for the acoustic part.

Dr Drek - Rush Moon

Here's a nice track of a 7" I got quite a while back in 2005 I guess. Sort of music for a very very straight country road. From the label Earsugar. Great label!

I don't really know what this is, something late 60's I suppose. I got it on saturday and I really like this song. I guess all these soft guitars songs that we started to post again must be a sign of spring. It's almost time to take out and dust off the balearic again...
