RaggaJungleBlaBlaBla

Shy FX has been a key member in the UK d&b/raggajungle scene a long time, now he set up his own label: DIGITAL SOUNDBOY ( http://www.digitalsoundboy.com/soundboy.html). Be sure to check out the mixes in DIGITAL SOUNDBOY's download section. Releasing stuff of his own, and also by Visionary (from Canada), who runs the Lion Dubs label, which released recently the 12 inch Aries - Nuff reggae music, using samples of the classic Stalag Riddim (Sister Nancy's BamBam in this case). I just love IT!

Another new favorite is Skoobz, with 2 excellent releases on the Rockers Dub Label: Soundclash & SlengTeng (yes, it is the mighty classic!). check it below!

Last Sunday: Stand By Party @ Stairway to Heaven

Last sunday in Stairway to Heaven, the goodbye party for the Standby music shop happened in full effect. As usual, I arrived late, so I missed Moskovicz, Cooper, Esmeraldas, Slurf and Vamos. Ellen was playing when I entered...Ellen Ten Damme did a flashback to The Pretenders. She really looked like Chrissie (she looked pretty good actually) and really did her best. But I found it boring. I did wanna take a picture of her, but I was blocked by truckloads of other people with cameras and videocams, who had the same idea. Sjako!(see photo below) was joined by Rene van Barneveldt aka Tres Manos (in photo to the right), the man responsible for the Urban Dance Squad guitar grooves. Currently he's more into playing slide, which he masters also pretty wel. The whole band was actually made up out of super crafty musicians. People who play which such ease it makes you jealous. Sounded really tight, hoovering somewhere between bruce springsteen and jimi hendrix. Good band, but a little bit too much of a redneck-sound in it, in my humble opinion. And in spite of some technical difficulties, Hotlipzz & Jane ROCKED the place again & again ...(and of couse, see photo below)....

And a BIG thank you! to the people of Standby for the party and their work at the shop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This tune is from mr Charles Manson, the song Sick City has also been covered by Marylin Manson, but this is the original, straight from the mind of a serial killer............

KERSTZAAK VOOR INGIEBINGIE

Voor wie niks te doen heeft op kerstavond: ingie draait in cafe de zaak. Niet de gebruikelijke Shake Out of Elephant Sound shit, maar de meest foute, meest gewilde, meest gehate, meest geliefde hitparadeshit. Maar dan wel eigenwijs afgewisseld met muziek uit zijn eigen (kerst)stalletje.

En voor wie niet wil...toch even de (sterk verkleinde)postert.

Last Friday @ EKKO: Electric Eels & ReggaeBomb

Last Friday @ ekko, Electric Eels Shock from Japan rocked the house.
Unfortunately I arrived when the last powerchord was struck. But I have been told it was great.

Later that night the Reggaebomb was dropped and Remco & Bas from Sideburn Soundsystem, Dab & Ivoryman played nice tunes for the people. I Was especially impressed with Ivoryman (see photo), who mixes the grooves like a mad scientist. Big-up to the man!!
