Music Release: El Stupido Los Indios Idiotas

Okay, its that time again - I've had the tune in my head for at least 5-6 years, but instead of doing a Latintronica/Nortec version, I've ended up with a tribal-techno track, styled much like Kick Bong's "Progress in Happiness" and some old skool Medicine Drum, Goa Gil and the like. Makes use of a tabla based beat, interspersed with tribal sounds and pumping techno sonics. Extensive utilization of VSTi's including Rob Papen's Blue, Albino, and Swar Systems' Swarplug.

"Come September" - yeah, come September, come Enigma's (Michael Cretu) brand new album, "Seven Lives Many Faces"

Finally, did I mention Portishead's new one, "Third" is just out of this world? Worth the wait.

Killer Dub Of The Moment - Movado: Jehovah Guide Me

DJ Cow Tse Tung Presents The Bollywood Plagiarism Soundclash, Vol 2

'Tis time for version deux to be released. Yes, from the refrains of a high-pitched, Indianized rendition of Bob Marley' "Buffalo Soldier" with lyrics talking about dates at "chowks" (roundabouts) to Jah Screechie's "Walk and Skank" becoming a refrain about a spoilt brat?!
I give up. As Indian Ropeman, aka Sanjiv Sen says on Elephant Sound, "Listen, learn, and enjoy".

Tracklist:

1. Yeh Kaali Kaali Aankhen (Baazigar) vs The Man Who Plays the Mandolino by Dean Martin
   
2. Le Pappiyan Jhappiyan (Haqeeqat) vs Tequila by The Champs
   
3. Dole Dole Dil Dole (Baazi) vs Come September by Lulu
   
4. Jab Bhi Koi Haseena (Hera Pheri) vs Return of the Mack by Mark Morrison
   
5. Aate Jaate (Maine Pyar Kiya) vs I Just Called To Say I Love You by Stevie Wonder
   
6. Hello Hello Bolke (Aakrosh) vs Buffalo Soldier by Bob Marley
   
7. Pehli Pehli Baar (Jab Pyar Kisi Se Hota Hai) vs Born To Be Alive by Patrick Hernandez
   
8. Kambakht Ishq (Pyar Tune Kya Kiya) vs Eireann by Afro Celt Sound System
   
9. Jai Maa Kali (Karan Arjun) vs Alright by East 17
   
10. Amma Dekh (Stuntman) vs On A Ragga Tip by SL2 (sampling Jah Screechie)
    

I must apologize for repeating the "Pehli Pehli Baar/Patrick Hernandez" track - forgot to check if it had already been included in version 1, and by the time I'd uploaded the mix (and realized my folly), I couldn't be bothered mixing this one all over again from scratch.

First new track for 2008! This one's called "Voyeur's Lullaby", and makes use of the Rob Papen VSTi, "Blue", the Predator VSTi, and a heavily tweaked Sytrus "Moon Ray 2" option (Additional production using Ableton Live 6). Listen online or download free mp3.



Samples Lao Ma from "Xena, Warrior Princess" saying "To conquer others is to have power. To conquer yourself is to know the way." . The cover is an alpha rendering of a shot from "Eyes Wide Shut".

Not merely "dream house" or "dream trance" but a "theme for a wet dream". That's it - my next job will be creating corny catchphrases for shitty music albums. Just say the word. FIDELIO.
