DJ UILSON - SELECTA FUNK 2 by djuilson

New DJ Nuts-Arthur Verocai Mix

the timeless concert series wasn’t just a series of stunning performances. all the shows were framed by our favorite djs. madlib, jrocc, houseshoes and quantic all came with amazing sets. cut chemist even raised the bar with a one turntable romp. on the eve of the verocai show, dj nuts was supposed to perform with madlib. he made the arduous journey from brasil after completing a show with marcelo d2. he endured a punishing series of flights that took 20 hours to complete, and in the end, a plane delay caused him to miss his own set at the start of the show. in a pinch, j.rocc stepped up to the plate and performed a stellar set at the luckman in his place, and nuts went on to dj a mind-blowing two hour set at the after-party. so much of mochilla’s dealings in brasil would not have been possible without rodrigo teixera (known to the world as dj nuts). the verocai concert surely would never have happened without him. his role in helping with the pre and post co-ordination was enormous.dj nuts is an astute and rigorous historian of brasil’s vast and varied musical culture. his record collection is legendary; his skills as a dj are world class. we commissioned him to make this mix to help people understand the extraordinary legacy of verocai. many by now know verocai’s self-titled album, some even know the more popular compositions and arrangements, but none have dug as hard as nuts. years of collecting and a strong friendship with verocai himself have made this historic mix possible. 78 minutes of all verocai compositions and arrangements is a dream come true. for such a mix to be made, only a true brasilian music aficionado could have created this, and we are honored to be able to share it with you.

Africa

In 1998, yielding to the international pressure, the Sudanese government allowed good aid to be distributed to the south. British photojournalist Tom Stoddart travelled with Medicins Sans Frontieres (MSF) to a camp in Ajiep, where more than 100 people were dying every day. There he took the above photo of a crippled boy who had queued hours for food, only to find it robbed away from him by a fit man who strides confidently away.
Stoddart received overwhelming criticism for his image, people demanding why he did not intervene. He responded, “I am a photographer, not a policeman or an aid worker. All I can do is try to tell the truth as I see it with my camera.” However, Stoddart requested that the papers that print his Sudan photos run the credit card hotlines of aid agencies next to the photos. On the day the above photo appeared in theGuardian, MSF had 700 calls and £40,000 was pledged. The Daily Express raised £500,000. Le Figaro ran 10 pages of his pictures, Stern magazine nine pages.
On a deeper level, the photo is a symbol of Africa’s continuing problem — the big man with the stick rules. Large amount of food aid disappears from the camps in much needed areas and appears for sale in the market places in neighboring countries. Not to be anecdotal but I once volunteered in an African country that should remain nameless. Food and medical aid that Western governments sent there were regularly pilfered by corrupt bureaucrats and sometimes aid is withheld or rediverted to areas that don’t need them because the governments there like to use foreign aid as a bargaining chip to subdue/cleanse tribes and ethnicities they don’t like. Yet, Western governments and aid agencies continue sending aid because sometimes getting a little aid to affected areas is better than cutting off aid.
This succinctly describes the relationship between European/American (even Chinese + Russian) multi-national corporations, supranational organizations and the former bread-baskets of the continent of Africa within a neo-liberal framework.
This picture makes me sick. I always get a little angry when I see photojournalism like this, because the subject is so compelling, and heartbreaking. As a viewer, I feel uncomfortably complicit in this crippled Sudanese boy’s plight. As a viewer, I am challeneged to DO SOMETHING, because I live in a world where resources are distributed mostly to those who possess relative privilege and effective demand.
Folks complain about socialism’s disribution of wealth? Well, I counter with this- capitalism requires the movement of capital driven by demand- largely the demand of corporations, and the lesser consumer demand of the privileged. Resources from “underdeveloped” nations are being taken from the soil, from the water and from the air in order to fuel, supply the lifestyles of the relatively privileged in industrial and post-industrial nations such as the USA or UK.

Robert Walter has no problem getting into funky, down-home soul-jazz when he wants to, but the organist/keyboardist/pianist also has his intellectual side. He obviously appreciates the soul-jazz that B-3 icons like Jimmy Smith, Richard "Groove" Holmes, Johnny "Hammond" Smith, and Jack McDuff offered in the '60s, but he has also shown his appreciation of Medeski, Martin & Wood as well as the post-bop and fusion that Larry Young explored after he moved beyond soul-jazz. And both sides of Walter's artistry serve him well on Cure All. If Walter (who forms a trio with bassist James Singleton and drummer Johnny Vidacovich) set out to offer a healthy balance of intellect and funkiness, he achieves that goal on enjoyable tracks such as "Maple Plank," "Snakes and Spiders," "Measure Up," and "Coupe." Most of the material is more cerebral than a typical soul-jazz performance would be, but at the same time, Cure All is less cerebral than Medeski, Martin & Wood's albums. Whether he is on organ, acoustic piano, or electric keyboards, Walter usually avoids becoming either too simple or too abstract. Not that there is anything wrong with either simplicity or abstraction; the straightforward, groove-loving bluesiness of Big John Patton and Gene Harris is every bit as valid a part of jazz as the most challenging pieces that John Medeski has had to offer. But Walter obviously wanted to avoid going too far in either direction, and that outlook yields consistently worthwhile results on Cure All.

Stoned Soul Picnic is an instrumental Hammond organ combo who plays an exciting blend of Soul influenced grooves and big beats.
The band was formed in 1999 by 4 musicians who shared a mutual enthusiasm for the funky soul music of the late 60's and early 70's.
After their super heavy gig at the first Saint Paul Soul Jazz Festival (only Hammond Funk and Raw Soul) which leads the audience to choose them as “the revelation of the festival”, Stoned Soul Picnic goes further with this super heavy album which proves that they are highly skilled to groove hard.
Dynamite Hammond Funk, Fat Beats et Wah Guitar : here are the favorite ingredients of these 4 super Cooks from Nottingham which will help you to lose some weight enjoying their new recipes.

Dennis Coffey (born in Detroit, Michigan) is an American guitarist, notable as a prominent studio musician for many soul and R&B recordings. Coffey learned to play guitar when he was 13 in Ontonagon County in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. At 15 he played on his first record session backing Vic Gallon on "I'm Gone" on the Gondola label. In the early 1960s he joined The Royaltones who had had hits with "Poor Boy" in 1958 and "Flamingo Express" in 1961. The Royaltones played sessions with other artists including Del Shannon. As a member of the Funk Brothers studio band, Coffey played on dozens of recordings for Motown Records, and introduced the wah-wah guitar sound to Motown producer Norman Whitfield's recordings. He also played on Edwin Starr's "S.O.S. (Stop Her on Sight)”, The Isley Brothers' "It's Your Thing", and Freda Payne's "Band of Gold". In addition, Coffey scored the blaxploitation film Black Belt Jones. In 1971, Coffey recorded Scorpio which was a million selling single and in 1972 Taurus, both with The Detroit Guitar Band. Since then, he has recorded several solo albums, most of them for the Sussex and Westbound labels.

In the early 70’s, Dennis Coffey, Motown ‘Funk Brother’ and super-session guitar man, seemed determined to write soundtracks – even if he wasn’t commissioned by a Hollywood studio. Indeed, the four studio albums he cut for the Sussex label between 1971 and 1974, from which this compilation is culled, are like a big personal advertisement for potential film score work.

Coffey’s raw, compressed guitar style – his big city breakbeat funk - certainly evokes a tough, urban landscape inhabited by tough, urban gangsters.

Searching For A Bit Of Popularity is the collection of 11 all-new heartbeat-skipping, soul-bending, mind-altering elixirs for the brand-new you.
Low Fidelity Jet-Set Orchestra begin with a nu-jazz and cinematic core and dive aggressively into vintage sound of deep funk roots, bossa-nova excursions, and an overdose of Hammond stabs, licks, chops and grooves.

Those that obsess for KPM and Chappell; Mansfield and Hawkshaw; Morricone and Umilani shall take notice. Searching For A Bit Of Popularity is a breathtaking tribute to the elusive library underground and a hardcore excursion into ancient backlot b-movie cinema crashing head first into the moderne concrete jungles of sophisticated cool and Hollywood lust that Mancini and Schifrin paved.

Sound-wrangler Dave Masoch (Modulo5) turns the knobs and designs the breaks and beats. Paolo “Apollo” Negri (Link Quartet, Wicked Minds) modulates the rhythms and unleashes the mighty Hammond in all the right places.

Searching For A Bit Of Popularity follows Low Fidelity’s crazy-cool debut 45 “Bahia Soul” b/w “Jazz Rocker” [HB7-02]. 2 exclusives that set the foundation for this happening new project: cool vintage bossa sounds swirling with jazz, hard funk and Hammond grooves...tasty? Tasty!!!

From the tangled streets of New York comes Ray Lugo a.k.a. KOKOLO, a sexy musical cocktail for those in the know. As the world begins to take notice of the emerging 'Blended-Beat? movement surging throughout American cities, KOKOLO - named after a Spanish Harlem slang term used to describe devout aficionados of afro music- has the combination to unlock the door: a funky poet with instruments, playing for the right to fight and turn the norm on its ear.
Known as a live act to be reckoned with, KOKOLO takes the stage with an awesome force, bringing music back to the days of mavericks like Fela Kuti and Ruben Blades, when music addressed the unrest endemic to the common man. The music, always danceable, always grooving, has something to say.
