Paris DJs Soundsystem - Pomp and Circumstance (MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2011-12-18 This one is mainly a warm-up mix in black and white (hence the title and artwork), presenting contemporary and international mento, ska, reggae and dub with young blood and legends. Lee Scratch Perry's got the final and mystic word with his under-exposed last release Rise Again (superbly crafted by Bill Laswell, with Steven Bernstein on trumpet and Bernie Worrell on keys), a title which sounds like a symbol of his great renaissance. But it could also fit The Jolly Boys Great Expectation comeback, a band christened by hellraiser Errol Flynn himself while he was living in Jamaica. Both music and hair dressing connoisseurs will understand easily the play on words hidden in the title's mix. For the others well, they can write to Paris DJs and we'll answer… Tracklisting : 01. 00:00 Lotek - International Rudeboy (From 'International Rudeboy' album, 2011 / First Word) 02. 04:07 Hollie Cook - Shadow Kissing (From 'Hollie Cook' album, 2011 / Mr Bongo) 03. 07:27 Joe Gibbs, Rudy Thomas and Trinity - Windy Day / What a Windy Day (From 'Joe Gibbs 12 inch Reggae Discomix Showcase Vol. 3', 2010 / VP) 04. 14:19 The Yoots - A, E, I, O, U (From 'Sing Along With The Yoots' album, 2011 / Economy Records) 05. 19:48 Tim Armstrong - Inner City Violence (From 'A Poet's Life' album, 2006 / Hellcat) 06. 23:29 Dub Pistols feat.

Bio Ritmo - Salsa Pa’l Mundo (MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) Electric Cowbell, 2011-12-15 Did you pass on La Verdad, the latest Bio Ritmo album released at the end of the summer on Electric Cowbell Records? If that's the case, then you've missed the Salsa album of the year, no less. The only letdown of this fantastic and frantic record is its length - under 40 minutes - definitively too short, but explainable by the fact that it's also available on a (heavily recommended) vinyl. Rei Alvarez, one of the main forces of the group, prepared for Paris DJs a mix of his old vinyls, the only kind of records he's got... and a he's got a lot of it!. It's a selection of music that has influenced Bio Ritmo, which doesn't include many tracks from the awesome Fania Records catalog, but rather focuses on its shadows, smaller and independent Salsa music that was released during the 70's and 80's. The one-hour long resulting mix is as killer as the album, with lots of very rare stuff, And we're as honored to have Bio Ritmo onboard of the Paris DJs podcast, as they were to be featured in the latest, Latin issue of Wax Poetics! I think I've already said that, but get the album, you don't hear amazing Salsa with psychedelic hints of ethio jazz, afrobeat or dub that often!! Tracklisting : 01. Dick Hyman - The Topless Dancers of Corfu (excerpt) (from 'Moog - The Electric Eclectics Of Dick Hyman' album, 1969 / Command Records) 02. Haciendo Punto en Otro Son - Mambo Mago (from 'Haciendo Punto En Otro Son' album, 1978 / Artomax) 03. Cheo Feliciano - Periodico de Siempre (from 'Profundo' album, 1982 / Vaya Records) 04. Ismael Rivera - Seis de Borinquen (from 'Feliz Navidad' album, 1975 / Tico Records) 05. Marty Galagarza y La Conquistadora - La Tristeza (from 'Pinocho' album, 1974 / Vaya Records) 06. Raul Marrero Y Su Orquesta - Las Modas de Hoy (from 'Salsa Internacional All Stars Vol.2' compilation, 1979 / Salsa International) 07. Bobby Valentin Y Su Orquesta - Como Me Duele La Piel (from 'Como Nunca' album, 1990 / Bronco Records) 08. Sammy Gonzalez - Buscame (from 'El Rey De La Salsa' album, 1980, Funny) 09. El Sonido Original con Luisito Marti y Anthony Rios - Melancolia (from 'El Sonido Original con Luisito Marti y Anthony Rios' album, 1978 / Karen Records) 10.
