The Pharcyde - Bizarre Ride One of my all time favorite Hip Hop album's produced by Jay Dee. This album stayed in my walkman cassette player on constant rotation for 2 years. It has everything for me, from fat hip hop beats, uplifting samples and humor within its rap lyrics. Imani, Booty Brown, Fat lip and Slim Kid Tre went on to make Labcabincalifornia album but then later all split up. James Brown -Give It Up Or Turn It LooseWith Clyde Stubblefield on drums and Bootsy Collins on bass, you have...

B-H-Y - 'We Funk The Best' (Salsoul)"Sure, B-H-Y's track might well be a blatant Funkadelic / Parliament rip-off, but it's every bit as out there as any comparable track from Clinton & Co., making it an essential purchase for all p-funk enthusiasts." The Chambers Brothers - 'Who Wants To Listen' (Avco)"Far from their best known tune (I'm not sure it ever made it beyond being an obscure album track), but this cosmic funk / blues hybrid from 1975 deserves reappraisal and is recommended to anyo...

Lindstrøm & Solale - So Much Fun (Dølle Jølle remix) (cdr)Been playing this for a while now, hasn´t let me down yet! Gonna be a smasher when it comes out. All hail the Jøll! Oni Ayhun - OAR 003 (OAR)Does anyone know who this guy is? No info on label. Fantastic balearic laidback dreamhouse made especially for me (right?).Krisp - Footnotes (Love OD)Old rave classic from Bjørn Torske, still beats the crap out of most techno out there.

Berlin's techno maestro gives us the lowdown on his favourite Sunday morning tracks.Isolée - Beau mot plage - Classic: One of the most amazingly crafted pieces ever. So chilled it gives me goose bumps every damn time! Maurizio - Various - M: Great dubby track with a dirty kick drum and production edge to it. Great for the wee hours on the dance floor. Mole People - Break night - Strictly Rhythm: One of Armand van Helden's side projects. Great memories with this track. Sven Vath played it at Tres...

Claudio Passavanti gives us an insight into the tunes played in his Sunlight pad of an eve..1) Artist: Kraftwerk - Album: The Robots - Track: SkylabI was 6 at the time (1978) and I had seen this band on TV... I immediately asked my parents to buy me that record and spent endless hours flying badly built Lego space ships to the futuristic rhythm of this track. Still one of my absolute favourites today.2) Artist: Rockets - Album: On The Road Again - Track: On The Road AgainThe Rockets were a progr...

(In no particular order)1. Antonio Vivaldi - Larghetto (concerto op. 3 no. 9) largo (concerto op. 8 no. 4)I'm a bit of a sucker for portly statesmanlike baroque string pieces and vivaldi's pretty much at the top of the heap. This is a short concerto piece with one of the most beautiful resolutions I've ever heard.2. Colin Blundstone - Say You Don't MindI've always been a bit of a romantic and this piece really appeals to that side of my character. Love the whimsical style and lyrics. Timeless.3....

I’d like to preface this by saying that I never enjoy selecting a top 10 of anything – there’s far too many great records for it to be anything like a definitive personal choice, and no sooner have I committed to a list than I think of a further 10 tunes I could just as easily picked. Anyhow, I decided to go for some favourite 70’s stuff - tracks I’ll never tire of hearing. Had they sub-divided the genres then like they do now, they’d have come up with a term like Deep Mellow to describe this t...
