Whiskey Barons Live!

Dudes came through the studio last week to take secret sips and play hot jams. If you missed it check out the full audio below. To reiterate some points, Whiskey Barons are part of FLAVORHEARD and have a record for sale at TURNTABLE LAB (soon to be more locations). They laid down plenty of funky soul disco boogie and reggae grooves along with some exclusive originals you wont hear anywhere else! Ben also arranged a few tunes for the reggae two shot over at Fully Fitted (complete with links to his rocksteady mix check it on out).








Whiskey Barons live on Mofo Radio

And on the subject of listening to old shows, it turns out you can now listen to ANY WZBC program for up to two weeks after it airs! Incredible! Visit wzbc.org or jump straight the archive to listen to mofos past.

No radio this week. I'm soaking up some nice weather down south, but I'll be back soon!

Drinking with the Whiskey Barons tonight!

Excited to chill out tonight on the air with Ben and Sam of the Flavorheard crew and get a special set of musics behind the inspiration of their Whiskey Barons project (now avail at TTlab).

Last week's playlist featured some of their tunes, along with a bunch of vinyl from a vinyl yard sale in JP and that new Holy Ghost song with the video that rips off the New Order video (awesome stuff). Also some MJ tributes with another U-tern demo edit and also some material from Craig Smith's 6th Borough Project.

So join me again tonight with Whiskey Barons for some serial funkylatintastic radio (with maybe some other stuff in between). That's at 10!

The Dr. is in?

Sadly, I don't own any Patrick Gleeson LP's (at least I don't think I do), but seeing his cameo on this Pleasure album we've been listening to the last few weeks reminded me how deep this dude's production credits go, from collaborating with Herbie Hancock, to engineering Devo albums! Kind of a surprising cameo, his intro to this Pleasure album reminds me to keep an ear out for some great synth sounds throughout. Granted my vinyl copy of this record is terrible. I tried to find something online but to no avail so here's my ripped and heavily sound soaped copy to give you an idea of what I'm talking about:








Pleasure - Beginnings

And in consolation for the poor quality of that example here's a more popular tune featuring some ground breaking synth work from Gleeson:








HH - Rain Dance

More radio this tonight. And a special announcement about next week's show. Tune in at 10 for the lowdown!

Summer dubs



Summertime has rolled into WZBC and Mofo is plugging along in it's Wednesday spot. Last week's program was chock full of vinyl B-side dubs as well as a few dubs from compilations past. I feel like there's a lot of attention being paid to the art of the "dub" lately. Perhaps gives the Petite Feet dance dub nice and timely release, check it out at Fully Fitted!

I was originally going to round up some tracks from this Dubstars compilation for a Reggae Two Shot, but it appears the iTunes database has messed up all the id3 tags (boo). I'm piecing it back together and I may still insert some in the Fully Fitted reggae stream, but for now I'll share a disco morsal with this take on a Will Powers classic:








Will Powers Adventures in Success (Dub Copy)(Dub)

Feeding the dub fire is this new Doc on DUB itself. Here's the trailer. Interested to see the film myself:

Dub Echoes - trailer from Bruno Natal on Vimeo.



A whole lot of new (to me) vinyl in tonight's show. See you at 10!

On the air tonight, Glowing next week


Coupla links before the show tonight. I'll be on the air at ten but will taking next week off to join fellow JP dudes for a future disco night at the Midway called The Glow. Alfredo from Manifest Destitute will be one of those dudes and a big shout out to his blog for the great tunes and vids lately. Hate to miss the show but psyched to be at the night I've sadly always missed! Looking for ways to perhaps live internet broadcast (or even video cast) in the absence, I'll see if I can work it out!

Speaking of great tunes I've been loving Prince Klassen's edit of London Girl. Lots of tasteful EQing and slow burning. He mentioned it wasn't getting much love so I wanted to link to it here seeing I've played it on the show and probably the last three times I've played out.

Stay up to date on your Reggae Two Shots at Fully Fitted, and on the subject of reggae big shouts to Amphibious and his latest offering in the Flavorheard Radio series. Go to the Flavorheard site and hit up the top link to get your rocksteady on. He doesn't know this yet but I'm gonna hit him up for some of those rips (if any of em were ripped) for a future two shots be on the lookout!

Whoosh I think that covers it. Oh and last week's playlist. See you on the air tonight!
