A truly fantastic song every way you cut it.

Billy Nichols "Give Your Body Up (To The Music)" (1979)
Big Larry Levan remix and a Garage anthem, he would always start the record from the middle (video is cued up to that exact spot) to get the energy rush from that mad percussion. Essential!

The message never grows old, in fact as relevant as ever!
Time to pay our respects to one of our most beloved musical heroes.
This should be a fun listen for those who may have missed this past Sunday's stream to Mixcloud.
The acapella used in the UK remix of Mr Fingers' epoch-defining "Can You Feel It" came from a very obscure record by Rhythm Controll featuring Chuck Roberts (R.I.P.) "My House" and Om Unit stuck a snippet of it in this remake.

It did not appear in the song's original version.
For those who love their Basic Channel (since that duo's self-imposed exile from making any more records), this should hold you over for a good bit.
An ace tip of the hat to the original by Mr Fingers, down to including a snippet of the Chuck Roberts acapella.

Very deserving of being listened to... it's got all of the good stuff. Dark and moody atmospheres, deep grime, swinging beats. Murdah stylee....
Interesting topic to discuss, how many 'Live' albums were in fact studio recordings that had audience dubbed in later for added effect?
Borderline entries include the much-beloved "Fela & Ginger Baker Live", and "Voodoo Child" from Electric Ladyland where a small studio audience was in fact present
Bandcamp also had another in-depth feature about Italian Library Music a few years ago. Essential!

For those who don't mind being digital crate-diggers, here is a wonderful feature about Library Music at Bandcamp.
It's a whole separate world (income was mainly derived from TV and movie licensing) but there are many incredible composers who deserve being heard.

What a great gesture!
Always welcoming those who appreciate the singular genius of Arthur Russell, patron saint for the 'World of Echoes' namesake group we created five years ago!
Music with layer upon layer of meaning one can never tire of listening to and getting inspired by. 🎶
The UK issue of the whole 'African Dub' series on Lightning Records are much cleaner and worth tracking down as the CD re-issues seem to come from bad vinyl rips of the Jamaican press, with de-noising software used that atrociously removed parts of the synth sounds!😵

Wonderful article entitled 'Vinylogue' from Discogs going into details about Brazilian sensation DJ Marky's passion for music and collecting vinyl.
It also offers some thoughts on his trailblazing career behind the decks as a leading exponent of Drum&Bass.

Confused about the state of digital art, and how creators currently incorporate new machine learning tools into their workflow?
From noted artist Claire Silver, here's a real good explanation, essential reading straight from an acknowledged expert in the field. Tirelessly clearing up misconceptions
Here are some of the rules originally created by Sister Korita Kent and adopted by John Cage, laid out for the students as well as teachers at the Merce Cunnigham Studio.
Well worth considering and meditating on.
For those who may not be aware, right on the heels of their documentary, jazz and funk legends Cymande have a new album full of goodies.
This cut is definitely worthy of attention for anyone who loves earthy rare groove and jazzy vibes.
