We’ve decided to throw a last minute benefit show to help make a financial contribution to the ongoing relief efforts in Haiti. If you’ve followed this at all it is an absolutely harrowing, horrible catastrophe that has befallen a place that was already a very difficult place to live for many people. The show is in only two days so PLEASE email this to your friends in New York, put it on your Facebook, Twitter, etc. and help us get the word out. We as DJs will not be taking any payment from this and the proceeds will be donated to charity. We are currently seeking expert advice on who to donate it to, suggestions are welcome.

DUTTY ARTZ TROPICAL RELIEF FOR HAITI

Nice new version on Dre Skull’s Smoke Machine Riddim, the riddim for Vybz Kartel’s “Yuh Love” by Ms. Thing and Psycho Tanbad. This one is called “Bonify”. Ms. Thing you know from her hit with Bennie “Dude”, Psycho Tanbad I don’t know but he sounds good on this. It’s a nice call and response ballad and I still love this riddim, soft and sentimental, a great bed for dutty love lyrics. Big tune, and bigup to the Mixpak records crew for giving these out on a freebie, dutty and clean.

me: i couldnt wait, got it off —-. itd been there since July or something. criminally slept on by us!

Lamin: yeah. the album had very little buzz, considering the fact that it was released by Def Jam and produced by The-Dream (& Tricky Stewart)! my sis mentioned it to me after she heard about it from a cousin in Maryland who’s 14 years old! so yeah, this is what 14 year old girls are listening to in the DMV.

“Let us imagine a man who stumbles into an alien ritual in its closing stages when the devotees are winding down to a concluding chorus of amens, and who immediately and enthusiastically takes up the singing with such loudness and gusto that the owners of the ritual stop their singing and turn, one and all, to look in wonder at this postmodernist stranger. Their wonder increases tenfold when they ask the visitor later what kind of modernism his people had had, and it transpires that neither he nor his people have ever heard the word modernism.” – Achebe, Home and Exile

DJ Sprinkles  – Sisters, I Don’t Know What This World Is Coming To

From the incredible album Midtown 120 Blues by DJ Sprinkles (aka Terre Thaemlitz) which the always fascinating Word The Cat put us up on several months back.  That photograph of Tina Turner is what comes to mind now when I hear this track.  Perhaps because the image (that expression) of Tina Turner (from the Brooklyn Museum exhibition Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present) is somewhat similar to the Midtown 120 Blues artwork, or perhaps because whenever this track comes up I’m always on the A train looking at an ad of the aforementioned photographic exhibition.

A hands-down classic; this is one of the greatest Coupe Decale songs ever.

& here’s the opening track from the first volume of a massive Coupe compilation Abijan En Feu (Nouvelles Dances | Nouvelles Ambiances). This has all the attributes a nice jump-start groove should have – first, a comical, deranged sounding character shouting gibberish (or rather speaking in a language we don’t clearly understand,) a few seconds in, a more commanding and heavy voice takes charge, and serious outbursts of singing and speed-rapping backed by incredible music from DJ Arafat (myspace) follows. This one is guaranteed to scale up parties and move bodies.

This just in from the Kolleidosonic blog…

Brand new mixtape chock full of exclusive productions from outernationalist Maga Bo, this mix takes you through some stuff he’s been working on over the past year. Last I heard, the next album will incorporate alot more of the Brazileiro vibes from his soon to be native homeland (10 years in Rio!!). There’s a couple of things to watch for here like the forthcoming Wha-la-la-leng remix for Poirier, Jahdan on Maga Traz a lenha, and the Petrona Martinez refix I sat in with him for at Casa de los Jones.

Rupture is off-the-grid again, somewhere in rainy Old Europe enjoying the Holidays. I’m holding things down tonight 7-8PM on Mudd Up! radio on WFMU 91.1 fm in NYC. We have some supa-dupa exclusives to throw on the air tonight,  a lot of 2010 heaters mixed in with our some of our favorite 2009 jams. Tonight @ 7PM.

Here’s something I’ll be dropping at some point tonight – probably my a favorite dancehall riddim/tune from ’09.
