FORCE OF NATURE - III (Mule Musiq Japan) Comentários: Big new Force Of Nature which is a sampler to the European CD release of their III album. "I-ight" is a Moroder-esque disco house bomb while "Kontinents" is in their typical cosmic style sounding like Vangelis, Tangerine dream on a dancefloor trip. Recommended.

NOBODY presents BLANK BLUE - Western Water Music Vol 2 (Ubiquity US) Comentários: Blank Blue is the surreal story of an Armageddon born out of a massive earthquake off the west coast of the United States and set sometime in the future. The quake triggers a separation of the west from the rest of the country, creating a whirlpool of devastation in its wake. Millions die. Thousands survive. Those that survive eventually sink and drown from the buckling lands, only to have scores of poison mushrooms waiting for them underneath the earth's masses, loosened from centuries old trees. The poisoned water gives them their first gasp, and miraculously they are able to and breathe and live underwater. The album tells the story from various points of views, from an all-knowing narrator, to a psychic fish that warns people via their dreams, to random characters who watch their loved ones drown or ask the others underwater how to find the ability to breathe. The confusion and sadness is balance

PANTS, James - Future Delight (Stones Throw US) Comentários: On the A side, some incredible disco from James Pants, very much on a eighties The Clash meets 'cosmic boogie' tip with great drums and synths. The flip is more along spiritual jazz lines. Limited fanclub 45! Well Recommended. in rushhour [ Para Ouvir/Samples1 ] [ 2 ] De repente aparece um nome para isto: Freshbeat. Cruzamento de boogie, disco, rap, pós-punk, kraut, soul e electro, em «Welcome» tudo orquestrado por Pants, James. Toca guitarra, bateria, teclas e canta, nada de extraordinário no mundo moderno mas nem todos o conseguem fazer com credibilidsade old school como «Welcome» transmite em três tempos. A profusão de estilos compactados num único álbum não compromete de todo a fluidez nem a direcção estética da música e reforça a ideia de que no centro do hip hop enquanto cultura musical está uma curiosidade infinita por fragmentos de todo o universo. Ouvido treinado, sentido rítmico, reciclagem sábia e muitos a
