End of Year Musings
It is nearly time to bid 2006 a fond farewell. 2006 has marked my second full year in Australia, and somehow I’ve still maintained my English accent! I do believe that writing this blog has made me even more attentive towards a subject I was already so passionate about, but either way it does seem that 2006 has been a fantastic year for music. I’ll be writing my “best of 2006″ style blog post very shortly, so look out for that.
I doubt this is … [read more]
Not Too Late
Jones is back! That’s Norah Jones with her third album Not Too Late. It’s coming out on Blue Note on 29th January 2007 and I’ve been lucky enough to hear a few snippets… it’s sounding good. By this time the deal is simple with Norah Jones and you surely either like her or you don’t, pretty clear cut I’d say. I happen to like her very much, and tracks such as; Don’t Know Why, Come Away With Me, Turn Me On, and Sunrise, will … [read more]
Won’t Do
Check out this video from J Dilla‘s album The Shining, it’s for the track Won’t Do…
There’s some cool effects in the vid, but certain parts evoke a few sad emotions – the pics of J Dilla growing up, all of the various projects he was involved in, and if you look closely at the blimp towards the back-end of the vid, it says “someone you know has lupus”.
This track has the distinct Dilla sound and is what I would … [read more]
>>just like podcast
Hello friends. The other week I created a podcast and shared the link with bout half a dozen pals. Seems some enjoyed it, so I’ve made another one. I don’t see any reason why the whole world shouldn’t hear it, so along with volume 1, you can download volume 2 at this RSS feed URL: http://www.switchpod.com/users/justlikemusic/feed.xml – just subscribe using that address and you will be good to go.
A few words on the podcast; the podcasts are a showcase of what I have been … [read more]
My Life At 33
This year has seen some epic English releases, I’m talking; Bonobo, Loka, The Broken Keys (Nostalgia 77 and Natural Self), TM Juke and also… Dr Rubberfunk, with his new album My Life At 33. The Doctor (or Simon Ward as family and close friends probably know him) ignited the embers within our woofers in 2003 with his debut electro/funk/chill crossover album The First Cut. This album proved to be a priceless twelve track excursion into the wonderful realms of raw funk and carefully … [read more]
