Si Begg Aka Buckfunk 3000: The Tigerbeat6 Arrangements

Tigerbeat6

A blistering collection of today's best bass addicts radically inspired reworkings of Si Begg's Seminal Releases as Buckfunk 3000 on Tipper's Fuel label way back in 2001. Si Begg should need no introduction due to his large body of work under countless aliases, including soundtracks for the BBC, Channel 4 and MTV, his Noodles recordings label or starting Mosquito with Cristian Vogel in 1997. Si Begg has managed to continually stay at the forefront of innovative and experimental techno and electronic music and we thought now was the perfect time to pay tribute alongside three other volumes of remixes coming out concurrently on Hardcore Beats, Future Perfect and Noodles Recordings. Don't sleep on these stellar remixes of "High Volume", "Jump", and "Disrupt" by Kid606, Kanji Kinetic, EBOLA, HecQ, Luke's Anger, the Squire of Gothos, Bruce Stallion, Wascal, and a special Updated Vip remix from Si Begg himself.

Flex Your Head

Dischord

***REISSUED WITH NEW COVER AND YELLOW VINYL!!! Flex Your Head was first released in January 1982 and was the first full-length album released by Dischord Records. The compilation features thirty-two songs by 11 DC area bands and went a long way towards “putting DC on the map” as one of the era’s great punk scenes. This new edition, which has been re-cut features a cover image of the DC Flag stars and bars (on a new yellow field), an image so associated with DC punk that many mistake it for a made-up symbol for straight edge. This cover image was also used (on a black field) for an edition of the album briefly pressed in conjunction with Alternative Tentacles in the ‘80s. Tracks from MINOR THREAT, TEEN IDLES, SOA, G.I., YOUTH BRIGADE, VOID, IRON CROSS, ARTIFICIAL PEACE, and more. Includes a free MP3 download coupon,

Thai Pop Spectacular - 1960s-1980s

Sublime Frequencies

***REISSUED ON VINYL!!! Thai pop history has been largely ignored and neglected by the international musical community for far too long. By the late 20th century, Thai pop music had developed as many faces as localized roots music such as molam or styles like luk thung or luk krung (each with their own respective pop-sectors). Bangkok—always the hub of the Thai recording industry—attracted musicians and singers from across the country that were both informed by tradition and inspired by the wealth of international sounds entering the region via radio and phonograph. Jazz, for instance, had a profound influence on early Thai pop music, the King of Thailand himself being a noted jazz composer. This superb collection features modern Thai music styles combining with elements of surf, rock, funk, disco and comedy, revealing the use of clever instrumentation, brilliant vocals, great arrangements, twisted breaks, and resourceful production techniques. Discover the Queen of Luk Thung, the 1960s "Shadow Music" sound, classic tracks from Thai films, blazing examples of Bangkok disco from the 1970s, legendary Thai comedy pop, and the most outrageous version of "The Night Chicago Died" you'll ever encounter. Thick horn sections, wah-wah guitars, tight drums, and funky organs help round out this astounding set which proves beyond a doubt that the Thai were a completely unique and powerful force during the 1960s, '70s & '80s global popular music explosion. Gorgeous double-LP heavy gatefold vinyl.

Live Convention €

Disco Wax

***Available for the first time ever, Disco Wax presents Live Convention ‘79. Destined to immediately become a collector’s item, Live Convention ‘79 serves as a companion and predecessor to the previously released Live Convention ‘81 and Live Convention ’82, each which have fetched hundreds of dollars switching hands from collector to collector. Live Convention ‘79 features digitally remastered audio from a vintage old school throwdown, recorded straight from the Jamaica Queens Armory sound board in 1979, on a night where an all star round up of legendary artists graced the stage. Artists include: Grandmaster Flash, Mele Mel, Kurtis Blow, DJ Hollywood, Eddie Cheeba, Lovebug Starsky, and DJ Divine. The recording serves as a glimpse into an atmosphere that previously could have only been enjoyed by a select few, who were in the right time and place to witness the birth of what has become a global phenomenon: hip hop music. Highlights included: Grandmaster Flash’s precise quick mix theory being demonstrated, Mele Mel and Kurtis Blow rocking back and forth, hearing the artists take verbal shots at Sugar Hill Records, and hearing the gifted crowd interaction skills of DJ Hollywood, Eddie Cheeba, and Lovebug Starsky. These Japanese import CDs have only been pressed in limited quantities in beautiful vintage paste-on style chip board sleeves expertly re-worked from the original artwork. So don’t sleep, once these are sold out, they are sold out for good. Japanese import.

Real Fun

Picturebox

***Ever wonder what independent musicians do the other twenty-three hours a day when they’re on tour? Real Fun answers this question with over one hundred photographs of musicians and bands in their downtime—sleeping, eating, fishing, and just goofing off. Ashod Simonian has traveled with scores of the finest bands in indie rock. His dreamy, lush Polaroids capture the likes of Death Cab for Cutie, Spoon, Pavement, Elliott Smith, The Shins, Sleater-Kinney, Broken Social Scene, Wilco, and more. Many of these bands also contributed essays and memoirs to the book, making it an essential collection of wisdom and memories from the road by bands both popular and obscure. Real Fun is accompanied by a CD of exclusive tracks by bands featured in the book, including: All Smiles, Califone, Dios, Flash Hawk Parlor Ensemble, Fuck, Irving, Kaito, Les Georges Leningrad, Jason Lytle, Mt. Eerie, Norfolk & Western, Panty Lions, Pine Marten, Preston School of Industry, Radar Bros., Sleeping States, Slumber Party, and Stereo Total. These tracks were selected by Simonian especially for Real Fun. They are a kind of public soundtrack to this compendium of private moments.  “Is there anything more indie than the Polaroid? Okay sure, probably a lot of things [insert digression on multi-faceted definition of "indie" here], but that little square-shaped instant memorypiece with the white border has, one must admit, endeared itself to indie culture to a significant extent.  Indie Polaroids of indie artists, therefore, equals double the indie for your dollar-- and that's just what...

Cherrystones Word

Tlon Uqbar

Remember all those rock magazines with covers proclaiming that "rock is dead!"? Remember that girl at the party who told you that the guitar was "played out" and "too limited?" Thankfully there are people in this world like Mr. Cherrystones who patiently waited to rock a psychedelic block party from London to NYC with his new compilation Cherrystones Word. Debut release on the Tlon Uqbor label, fierce spawn of contemporary psych repository Holy Mountain.  Reflecting his punk rock roots, but coming out at a hip-hop angle with an astounding knowledge of music and a native intuition of how to tear shit up in clubs, Cherrystones is the sound of psychedelia-soundtracks-folk-rock-prog-noise-moog-and-library-records.   Cherrystones is also an excavator of exciting, seemingly unfamiliar genres. Many heavy sounds that are held in high regard now were first uncovered on his previous compilations Cherrystones Rocks (Lo Recordings) and Hidden Charms.   Cherrystones is a music lover first and foremost, who happens to be a beat-digger par excellence. His compilations have a beautiful flow like a radio transmission from planet dada. This personal-journey-by-DJ is genuinely disarming as he uncovers track after track that thrills through being dusted down for fresh consumption, from the Led Zeppelin-esque qualities of Dead Moon to the crazed, Dylan-like The Deviants. What could be more of an accidental tribute (as this was put together before his sad passing) to the late, great Arthur Lee than the Midnight Circus?  Comps are two-a-penny, but none are as solid or brimful...

International Sad Hits, Volume One: Altaic Language Group

20|20|20

International Sad Hits: Volume One introduces four singer-songwriters from Asia to the English speaking world. All four are veteran musicians in their respective homes, with decades-long careers, large discographies, and devoted followings. These are not pop stars or traditional folk artists, but singer-songwriters in the tradition of Bob Dylan, Tim Buckley, and Nick Drake. As a result, their music has, for the most part, never traveled beyond their national or linguistic cultures. This co mpilation is intended to take the music across those borders, and introduce it to the wider audience it deserves.  The tracks were selected by 20/20/20 owners Damon & Naomi, who first encountered these songs when touring the world themselves. These four singers are among the discoveries closest to their hearts. And while the title points out that these artists are linked by a linguistic family (Altaic) as well as a continent (Asia), what truly connects them is their love of melancholy.   Indeed, these could be among the saddest songs you'll ever hear. One of them, "Bohemian" by Kim Doo Soo, is reputed to have caused two suicides in Korea. Mikami Kan and Tomokawa Kazuki are famous in their native Japan for their extreme emotional singing styles, and Turkey's Fikret Kizilok plays melancholy love songs backed by guitar, strings and percussion. Rather than a common style, the poetic lyricism and emotional possibility of these songs unite them.   After all, even if you grew up in Anatolia, and someone gave you a comp with Nick Drake, Tim Buckley, Tom...
