Dub Asylum interview at Laidback Radio
Cheers to Jason F for hooking this up! Read the interview here.
Intro:"Dub Asylum is one of those undercover New Zealand artists who keeps dropping great music and doesn’t seem to shout too loud about it, it bubbles away and gets the respect it deserves from the beat community. After the release of his Ba Ba Boom! Digi-EP in August 2008 Peter McLennan got the nudge from some of his DJ friends to put out some vinyl which I’m glad to say he’s just done with a tasty little 7″ of the title track with a special dustep/afrobeat remix on the flip from Oogun."
Ring The Alarm: Best of 2009
This is based on the music I played on my radio shows this year, so there's probably some things I left out. Hit me up if there's music I missed in 09 - I need to hear it!
Pépé Bradock - Confiote de Bits / A Remix Collection
One tune that I discovered after getting this collection was a remix Bradock did for Candi Staton, called Do Your Duty. One reviewer noted its omission from the Confiote de Bits collection, and it was well worth hunting down.
Baker Brothers - Avid Sounds (great versions of Shack Up, Lady Day and John Coltrane)
5: Five Years of Hyperdub - Various artists incl Kode9, LD, Cooly G, Flying Lotus and more
Donáe - Riot music
DJ Vadim - Hidden treasure
'
Kion and Murda feat Junior Murvin - No 1 sound
Cooly G - Love dub - more from Kode9's excellent Hyperdub label, home to some of the most adventurous electronic music out there today (see above -5 Years of Hyperdub).
King midas sound - Cool out (their album dropped at the end of this year, have been investigating it and its damn fine too)
Lee Scratch Perry - Yellow tongue (Kode9 remix)
Hypnotic Brass Ensemble - Hypnotic Brass Ensemble (Playing at Womad in New Plymouth, March next year, awesome!)
NYTimes backgrounder on Hypnotic Brass, from 2006, includes sidewalk performance.
Quantic - Tradition in transition (Will Holland is very prolific but the quality control aint always in effect with his work, sometimes coming off a little bland. However, his last two releases have been crackingly good.)
Fulgeance - Tribute To Masekela - I bought a ton of tunes and remixes by Fulgeance this year, fascinating, funky business.
Beat pharmacy -Wikked times remixes
Staff Benda Bilili - Tres Tres Fort
Naomi Shelton & the Gospel Queens - What Have You Done, My Brother?
Unitone Hifi - Sneeze off - A lovely little 7 inch local single, the fantastic amount of bass on this release inspired me to put out my own tunes on seven inch vinyl. The flip from Jefferson Belt is none too shabby either.
Wajeed - Jeedo suave
Major lazer -Can't stop now
Chancha Via Circuito - Rodante
V V Brown - Crying blood (Andrew Weatherall remix dub)
Sola Rosa - Humanised feat Bajka
Tiki - Burning fire (Oogun remix)
E'S E - Scratch's skank
Jahdan Blakkamore - She said
Julian Marley feat Damian Jr Gong Marley - Violence in the streets
Lee Fields - My world album
Open Souls - Hold you close album
Mulatu and the Heliocentrics - Inspiration information album
Onra - The anthem (extended)
Soul investigators w Myron and E - Cold game
Sharon Jones and the Dapkings - Inspiration information
Lefties soul connection feat Flomega - Have love, will travel
Julien Dyne - Falling down
Isaac Aesili - The media
Andrew Weatherall - Fail we may, sail we must
(his album, Pox on the Pioneers, is damn fine too)
And of course, this little stonker, my own tune on lovely vinyl!

RIP Rowland S. Howard
Passed away aged 50, from liver cancer. "Howard was waiting for a liver transplant and had cancelled recent shows due to illness. The influential guitarist came to prominence as a member of Melbourne punk band the Boys Next Door who became The Birthday Party, fronted by Nick Cave...
His second solo album, Pop Crimes, was released in October to critical acclaim. His final gig was at the Prince of Wales in October to launch the album..." From the Herald Sun.
