In 1983 I was 9 years old and fully turned onto the exploding breakdancing scene, inspired by the electronic beats of rap heroes like Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five and The Sugarhill Gang. Which led me to purchase my first vinyl record ever during a mall outing with my Grandma. Newcleus - “Jam on Revenge” which spawned an all-time electro dance classic, “Jam On It”. #vinyl#recordcollector#hiphop

"It's like a song from a parallel universe!" The funkiest, grooviest Korn remix ever just dropped, and it's got a classic Black Sabbath solo stitched in
Ignore all that Blue Monday nonsense, and get your groove on with this fiercely infectious new Korn mash-up

I'm not doing a year end #music list but I will share a few Bandcamp playlists of stuff I've been listening to a lot recently. These playlists were made for preshow and setbreak music on a private streaming event. They tend to start slow and gain steam as they go, so if the first tune or two are too mellow just skip ahead. There's some #jazz and #rap#hiphop heavy on the DJ/producer side, and modern #soul#funk and some weird rock and whatever Hiatus Kaiyote is 🤷
“Bossa Nova Is Not A Crime” is an album by The Juju Orchestra, founded in 2004 by Rare Groove – dj & vinyl – nerd Fab DJ Sammy and producer/sound engineer Oliver Belz, based in Germany. In 2006, Ralf Zitzmann from Agogo Records joined the band. […]
#NowPlaying finally home to spin the haul of records I saved for Xmas. Leading off, one of my all-time favorite albums first released on vinyl in 2023: MEDESKI MARTIN & WOOD - SHACK-MAN (Real Gone Music; originally on CD, Gramavision, 1996). The volume is awfully quiet due to 54 min of music being crammed onto 2 sides, but it sounds ok with the stereo cranked up. I'm just glad to have it on #vinyl. Thanks Santa! #MMW#jazz#groove@vinylrecords
@vinylrecords#NowPlaying one more tonight, SHARON JONES & The DAP-KINGS - JUST DROPPED IN (TO SEE WHAT CONDITION MY RENDITION WAS IN) (Daptone, 2020). A posthumous collection of covers commissioned for movies, commercials, samples, or tribute albums (e.g., Prince's "Take Me with U"), or that the band recorded on their own (e.g., Bob Marley's "It Hurts to be Alone"). #SharonJones#Daptone#soul#funk#r&b #vinyl
John Medeski, Billy Martin, Scott Metzger and Nels Fucking Cline (yes, pronounced like "Roy Fucking Kent")
Starting late night east coast time bc it's a #phish afterparty, probably sometime after 9 on the west coast
If you like improv heavy #psychedelic#music this should be amazing - my guess is it will flow back and forth from jamming #funk workouts to avant garde free #jazz and more, but who knows?
