The subject is maggots

What happens when you dig a tune, but you are opposed to the attitude and mentality it comes along with?

I loved Gil Scott Heron's work through the years, but never appreciated -among other stuff- his homophobic poem-song "The subject was faggots" that is being used in Leon Revol's tune right here -and to tell you the truth, it kind of always oppressed my love for his talent and music, cause I like to admire a person and an artist as a whole, not just for a part of his personality that is expressed as a certain kind of talent.

But this tune has that something that lets spring in and leaves you with an old skool touch. So leavin' the "faggot" thing aside, I'm keepin' the tune and pretend it talks about maggots going to a ball.

When Joey met George

One of my beloved producers from the past, Joey Negro, had this take on George Benson's "Love will come again". A house legend meets a musical genius and for about 7,5 minutes, nothing else matters.



There's certainly a good, inspiring, solid base, but you can feel Joey Negro's intense touch throughout. And the bass... Oh, that bass!

I think I'll make this a Joey Negro and the Sunburst Band day.

Caution: Mind-blowing tune at 49.30 -kicking off at around 47.00- by the Alien Disco Sugar. And it's not the only one.

Yeah, man!

Beerlover? Me?

Well, there's a beerlover I can actually relate to.



Check out my favorite one from the whole laid-back EP, which you can enjoy here.

You can also grab a beer if you want to.

Ouch!

This is what I call super-dirty, wicked, serious piece of groove.



It has some fades in it, but remains freaking hot throughout.

Beedle back

My first Ashley Beedle love was his take on A Guy Called Gerald's "Humanity": the love and compassion mix. Tribalistic, melodic and kinda dark and badass rhythm, it'd made me truly appreciate his work.

Yesterday, after many-many years of having dug Ashley Beedle deep into my longterm music memory, I came across this oh-so-sweet tune, in collaboration with Lay-Far and Darren Morris, totally opposite from my first love.



Love them both equally.

Check out the whole EP from Local Talk, here. Kicks ass.
