Parov Stelar - Libella Swing


Track List

01. Hotel Axos
02. Homesick (Club Version)
03. Libella Swing
04. Blind Alley featSax Max & Lylit
05. Blind Alley feat. Sax Max & Lylit (Late Night Version)

The latest offering from Parov.... certainly up beat, it's almost dance, but crucially it's infectiously smooth and jazzy as per.  It's everything you'd expect from another Parov release bearing in mind the last gem of "The Flame Of Fame - EP" which was in a similar style.  I think we'll all know the track "Homesick" (even if it is the "Club" version) but all the others are newbs.  Standout for me would be "Hotel Axos" with an insanely catchy trumpet riff.  Not too shabby at all.

Saltillo - Ganglion


Track List

01. A Necessary End
02. Giving In
03. Remember Me?
04. A Simple Test
05. A Hair on the Head of John the Baptist
06. Blood and Milk
07. The Opening
08. Backyard Pond
09. Grafting
10. Praise
11. I’m on the Wrong Side
12. 002 F#m

This is really good....  Nuff Said!! (well almost) it's mostly downtempo but strangely has an almost DJ Shadow-esque feel to it.  So far I'm lovin it!  Has huge influences from Classical Music and Trip-Hop.  Some large beats tho even if they are on the slower tempo.  Standout's include: Praise, Grafting, Blood & Milk, Remember Me, Giving In (feat Sarah Matthews) & A Necessary End (Feat Sarah Matthews).  Quite a few cherries to be picked from this musical bush!!!  It's Chilled and Chilling....  Enjoy.

And the artwork is also choice...

Linkin Park - Session

Wow, never thought I would recommend anything of Linkin Park's! However whilst watchin The Soprano's I heard this quality tune and found out its off this album. Its totally different to all the normal LP sounding stuff, with hints of Shadow, Blockhead, or Deceptikon. It's by a DJ called Mr Hahn, more to come I suspect! I love it.

Preview 2 - Check this dude hamering out the track on drums!!!

Black Twang - Speaking From Experience

Can't seem to find the new album, if anyone locates please post it innit.

Le Peuple De L'Herbe - Radio Blood Money (2007)

A little bit out there, with a whole host of Genres going on here. Interesting however, with 'Yep!' and 'The Fall' catching my attention. Not all good, in fact some are quite annoying but worth a look if you have the time.

If you have even more time, this blog has posted their discography and no doubt there are gems in there if your prepared to look. If so give us the nod innit.
