SUN RA & HIS ARKESTRA - Some Blues But Not The Kind That's Blue (Atavistic US) Comentários: The third deluxe RA reissue in the new O-Card format from the UMS, released in conjunction with EL SATURN Records is here: A superb reissue of adelicious, seldom heard Saturn Records document from 1970- replete with two alternate takes of a previously unissued classic AND an "Untitled" piecefrom the original '77 sessions... all available for the first time on CD!"Sun Ra's career-long committment to his Arkestra allowed the pianist and bandleader little time for the elaboration of less populous projects. Therewere brief, tantalising glimpses, however, into his small group concept-including a rash of recordings made in the mid 1970s. There are, for instance, two great double-LPs of quartet music, tenor saxophonist John Gilmore gloriously forward, made for the Italian Horo label in 1978. A year prior, a stripped-down group made a set of studio recordings focused on s

SPACEK, Steve - I Wanna Piece Of Ur Luv (Jazzy Sport Japan) Comentários: Lush hitech soul tracks; again a cutting edge production with out-there sounds to support the soothing voice from Steve Spacek. The A side comes with the easy 'I Wanna Piece You' as vocal and instrumental mix. The flip has the offbeat 'URUB', co produced by Mark Pritchard with it's high end spaced out strings; also comes as vocal and instrumental. Limited 12 from the japanese Jazzy Sport camp! Tip! in rushhour [ Para Ouvir/Samples ]

ONRA - Chinoiseries (Label Rouge) Comentários: Brilliantly odd instrumental hip hop album here from Onra, compiled and constructed around vintage Vietnamese pop records picked up in flea markets on a trip to the far east. 32 short tracks make up "Chinoiseries", each of them clocking in at the 1 or 2 minute mark and delivering a tight selection of beats that somehow bring to mind J Dilla, Rza, Madlib, Moondog, MF Doom and the Sublime Frequencies label rolled into one beautifully incoherent package. Having a ravenous appetite for the "Radio Transmission" style beloved of the aforementioned Sublime Frequencies crew, we might be perfectly primed for this sort of thing, but while the dusty exotica, folk and plastic pop of the source material here could so easily have ended up sounding like the sterile plunderphonic coffee table beats that typified so much instrumental hip hop in the late 90's, Onra manages to harness the mystifying magic of the original material and

NIGEL CLARK - 21st Century Man (MMD) Comentários: quando ouvi a primeira música deste single "21st Century Man", lembrei-me inevitavelmente do "Yellow Submarine" dos Beatles, não própriamente do título da canção, mas sim da estética psicadélica (que era no entanto infantil) introduzida no filme, foi algo que marcou bastante a minha infância, senti aquela pequena sensação de regressar atrás no tempo, saudosismo talvez, e porque também a melodia deste composto musical transpira algumas influências dos 60's & 70's. A segunda faixa "If You're Thinking Of Me" perdura ainda o feeling dos anos 70, em jeito de uma balada muito tranquilizante. A terceira passagem do single chama-se "We've Come Too Far" também parece ter sido concebida numa linha retro, assemelha-se ligeiramente a algumas produções de Beck. Nigel editou o seu mais recente album a 18 de Novembro de 2006, entre a sua saída de Dodgy e e a incurssão no seu projecto a
