Padded Cell
is the name of the latest project by Richard Sen and Neil Beatnik. The two Dubliners already worked together successfully as Bronx Dog and Dirty Beatnik. Right now they are concentrating on the reincarnation of disco – in the shape of dubby house, psychedlic techno and a mutual passion for Arthur Russell.
A cross between Liquid Liquid and Silver Apples. It contains the brilliant «Voodoo» track.
Cherrystone's new Mix CD «Crawl Back To Mine». Gareth Cherrystones is a legend and vinyl obsessive, check his new LP on Whatever We Want Records. It's good to listen to a mix and not know most of the tunes.
The perfect pop LP with a Metro Area sound.
Krautrock techno made by my friends.
I like to check out new stuff. At the moment it's «Transparent Things».
A classic wah wah guitar funk B-Boy break.
This has so much energy while keeping the funk.
I hate my neighbours, they're always screaming at each other. I put this on full volume last time they argued and it certainly shut them up! One of the nastiest, dirtiest new house records.
The title speaks for itself, an electronic masterpiece.
This is proper trance music, and easy to drift off to.
«Tom Cat» is the track to watch the sex kittens walking past.
New house mixes are good for jogging to. The best new one at the moment is James Holden's «At The Controls». Really varied and well put together.
Remember to eat your five fruits and vegs a day and keep it organic!
Anything smooth. «L.A. Nights» still gives me goosebumps.
This record is just drums, one track on each side of amazing changing drum breaks and percussion.
I'm listening to «The Viking of Sixth Avenue» as I'm doing this. This guy was so far ahead of his time, like Sun Ra. He made his own instruments to create avante-garde jazz and percussion dressed as a viking! Bear in mind this was during the 40s, 50s and 60s. Most famously sampled by Mr Scruff for «Get A Move On».
One of the best Indian film soundtracks ever made. «International Suspense Caper Movie» it says on the cover.
Guaranteed to bring back the horrors.
He was the only vibes player in Ethiopia. If you've seen the film «Broken Flowers» his music is featured throughout.
Psychedelic folk, a trippy way to start the day.
