Circle - Katapult (2007)

 

Circle is usually hard to pin down. Every album these fine Fins produce finds the lads exploring some new, exciting sounds that pre-existed only in their heads at one time. What gets me is that when I first heard this record I thought it was some long lost proto-metal soundtrack-esque gem. 

CHECK 

Muddy Waters - After The Rain (1969)

 

In memoriam of Mr. Pete Cosey. Pete was session guitarist for Chess Records, blazing up R&B albums, before being drafted into Miles Davis' electric band in the early 70's. 

This one here is a pretty gnarly blues record with some serious fuzzy guitar work. Very Hendrix like guitar voicings, meaning non-guitar guitar noises, and at same time very individualistic because even though this is 1969, he's been doing this before Jimi Hendrix started his solo career.

 

R.I.P. 

eXCLUSIVE - eL Stinkeyes - Brown Acid Mix Vol. 3 - "eL verAnO sUdOrOsO" (2012)

 

You might have been wondering where I've been these past months. I've been wondering what this giraffe/donkey baby is gonna look like. Fair enough?

No?

Well, how about this? Heavy start on the chicha into psychedelic latin heat, and some good old fashioned latino beat mix. Forgive me if I'm lacking certain information about these artist. These hard drives and stuffed to the nines with files that shuffled around.
