I haven't heard this yet (it's a request) so I'm gonna copy paste:

Drawing from their Indian and Middle Eastern heritages, the UK dance/ambient outfit Loop Guru create quintessential exotic grooves with a fat wall-of-sound typical of Nation Records, full of evocative instrumentation and layered over a bottom heavy rhythm section. Like their siblings, Transglobal Underground, they utilize their roots in an intelligent and non-superficial way, truly echoing the culture-bending populace of metropolitan clubland. Their heady, dub-influenced brew spans the sonic range from dervish intensity to long, raga-esque soundscapes deceptively simple in their complexity. The Casbah vocals of Sussan Deihim and Islamic samples are underpinned by the conscious, fat rhythms of Count Dubulah, Salman Gita, and crew weaving gamelan, Hindu, and Nubian elements into proto-funk and trip hop grooves. With a street level spirituality and global conciousness, "Duniya" creates aural tapestries that become a highly listenable urban safari, melding both time and cultures in a new and original expression of world citizenship. --Derek Rath

Bong-Ra- Full Metal Racket (2007)

http://sharebee.com/cea5131c



Fantastic breakcore, supposedly from the guy who does Drumcorps. Earwicker recommended it to me, so.

HERE'S A WOKIPEIDA:

Bong-Ra is the performing name of Dutch breakcore musician Jason Kohnen from Utrecht. Formed in 1996, initially producing and DJ-ing jungle music. Previous to Bong-Ra Jason Kohnen performed as bassist and drummer for stoner/doom metal band Celestial Season amongst others. His style contains a variety of crossovers and fusions of different genres, including Metal, Gabba, Jazz, Rave and Jungle, becoming one of the front runners of the Breakcore genre, sometimes credited as 'Yardcore' or 'Raggacore', blending Reggae and Ragga with Breakcore.

whoa this is chef (what am i doing on steel's account I DON'T EVEN KNOW???) and i have decided to join in on the whole blogosphere action so here i am rocking out on stone that the builder refused.

mulatu astatke is an ethiopian jazz musician who, from my understanding, pretty much defined ethiopian jazz. i don't know because i am not mr. ethiopian jazz! what i do know is that mulatu astatke creates a really interesting and awesome blend of american free jazz, traditional ethiopian music, and blaxploitation funk that makes for really good listening. this album, mulatu of ethiopia, has some really great tracks that exhibit his drunkenly soulful style and are begging to be sampled by a hip hop producer. some of the highlights are yegelle tezeta, kasalefkut hulu, and yekerme sew, although all of the songs are really good. definitely check this out.

Ween - The Mollusk Sessions (rec '97, rel '07)

http://sharebee.com/a578eb8f

HEH I'M A FAGGOT THIS IS FREE

But not exactly readily available. Here's the story: a couple of weeks ago, Ween put an mp3 on the Waste page of their website. It was a bunch of songs recorded during the sessions for The Mollusk. Some made the cut, others did not, and some got changed a lot anyway. It was only left up for a week, though. A few people uploaded to their blogs afterwards. This here is one of them, and it has the album split up into different tracks already.

So you should still get this because
-you can't always find it since a lot of the blogs have removed it, and now it's mainly on bittorrent
-it rules

TRAX:
1 Mutilated Lips
2 Cold Blows the Wind
3 The Mollusk
4 Waving My Dick in the Wind
5 Kim Smoltz
6 Ocean man
7 Koko
8 Did You See Me
9 Flutes of the Chi
10 She Wanted to Leave
11 Vinnie the Eel

IT'S DOPE GET IT NOW also I refuse to believe that the new Wu-Tang will suck SAY IT AIN'T SO PLEASE

Pivot - Make Me Love You (2005)

http://sharebee.com/c5b6ac38

Pivot
An Australian instrumental band. They play a cool post/prog rock kind of music, with a bit of electronics and minimalism. Make Me Love You is their debut album, and managed to earn plenty of praise. It was the most "obscure" of the nominees for triple j's J Award (Australian album of the year) in '05.

1. Make Me Love You
2. Artificial Horizon
3. Incidental Backcloth
4. Montecore
5. La Mer
6. Pivot Voltron
7. I May Be Gone For Some Time
8. Kirsten Dunst
9. Helps None But Hurts None

Yes, that's a song named after Kirsten Dunst. And Montecore is named after the tiger belonging to Sigfried & Roy (that attacked Roy a while back). THIS BLOG IS FOR EDUCATION.

The music's pretty engaging and fascinating to listen to. Tracks will be easy then intense, but not violent like GY!BE (for example). In their own words (MySpace), the influences are: Jean Michel Jarre, Talking Heads, Brian Eno, Liars, Aphex Twin, Ricardo Villalobos, Andrew Pekler, Vangelis, This Heat, Lightning Bolt, Arcade Fire, Chris Lilley, Garth Marenghi, Tim & Eric. I don't know, most prog/post fans I know liked this, it's just really cool music. Highlights are the title track, "Pivot Voltron" and "Kirsten Dunst".

sincerely,
JOPE

Bardo Pond- Amanita (1996)

http://sharebee.com/6281a2c2



"Limerick" - 10:21
"Sentence" - 5:08
"Tantric Porno" - 6:13
"Wank" - 5:28
"The High Frequency" - 6:51
"Clean Sweep" (bonus vinyl track)
"Sometimes Words" - 4:38

"Rumination" - 6:22
"Be a Fish" - 4:42
"Tapir Song" - 7:32
"Brambles" (bonus vinyl track)
"RM" - 9:18

A brilliant release by Bardo Pond, a band I know got at least one person laid. At last check, approximately 140+ people were reading this blog so that's 140 more people to have sex to it huh!

Good stoner post rock stuff, needs headphones or a great sound system. Just great fucking shit!

HERE'S A TERRIBLE REVIEW OF A GREAT FUCKING ALBUM

"As the resin oozes on, sticking everything in its path to the couch, Bardo stumbles into the 2nd phase of a full length zone-out. Limp-lidded guitars are in more abundance than ever, courses are being plotted with the controls set for the heart of the bowl, and somewhere deep inside a 'rock' band has emerged... however baked it may be."

Drumcorps- Grist (2006)

http://sharebee.com/e10011bc



1. Botch up and die

2. Down

3. Pig destroyer destroyer

4. Terrible things

5. forgive and forget

6.Grainbeast

7. Saddest RMX

8. Incarnate

9. Worse

10. Time

11. Grist

Probably the best grindcore album I've found, Drumcorps is a little known group that's very sample heavy (since I'm not into the hardcore scene, I didn't recognize a lot of the samples anyways though) and energetic as fuck. If you like being punched in the head by music, get this album. Be warned, it is hardcore music, and if you don't like that, you almost certainly won't like this. I love the fuck out of Grist personally, so get it if you are even slightly interested.

Fela Kuti- Zombie (1977)

"Zombie" – 12:26
"Mister Follow Follow" – 12:57
"Observation Is No Crime" - 13:25
"Mistake" - 14:46

"Fela Anikulapo Kuti (born Olufela Olusegun Oludotun Ransome-Kuti, October 15, 1938 - August 2, 1997), or simply Fela, was a Nigerian multi-instrumentalist musician and composer, pioneer of Afrobeat music, human rights activist, and political maverick."

FUCK YEAH.

Guess what: if you don't like Fela Kuti, you're either tonedeaf or a racist!

THIS IS THE OPINION OF THIS BLOG!!!

Jazzy black guy doin African shit, get this shit and yeah, ROCK THE FUCK OUT IF YOU HAVE A SOUL.

Panacea- Ink Is My Drink (2005)

http://sharebee.com/729839ed



"Trip of the Century"
"Invisible Seas"
"Place on Earth"
"Steel Kites"
"Coulda Woulda Shoulda"
"Reel Me In"
"PULSE"
"Work of Art"
"These Words"
"Ecosphere"
"Burning Bush"
"Starlite"
"Sunburst (Bonus)"
"Pupil Stars (Bonus)"

A fantastic group out of Washington DC, Panacea consists of MC Raw Poetic (an MC I model my own rapping style out of) and producer K-Murdock. The beats are sample heavy and sometimes jarring as they transition, but this is a fantastic album any hiphop fan should grab. Poetic has a unique style and can flow ridiculously, with intelligent lyrics, and K-Murdock's beats are pretty much fire (although, admittedly, they can get very spastic). Check them out, and if there's interest, I'll upload the second album or Restoring Poetry in Music and the Y Society, which are side projects.

18159. Oxes - [Oxxxes #07] Bees Won
18160. Oxes - [Oxxxes #08] Russia Is Here

A post/math rock band out of Baltimore, Maryland, Oxes sounds a lot like Battles with more metal. Notorious pranksters who liked to challenge a lot of conventions at concerts, Oxes has a small cult following, and it's surprising more people don't talk about them in a genre of music as boring as post rock. Honestly, unless you have an issue against guitars and instrumental songs, and if you like Battles at all, you owe it to yourself to check out Oxes!

ps: I believe the proper band's name is OXES, but that gets irritating to type out.

Blue Scholars is a duo out of Seattle, Washington, MC Geologic and DJ Sabizi. They've opened for a lot of big names in the past, and are getting more and more popular. The group mostly raps about society and a lot about youth (some of their songs directly catering to high schoolers).

Their self-titled brings to mind the style of Heiruspecs. Give it a shot if you haven't.
