DaM-FunK (Live Rehearsal Footage) w/ MASTER BLAZTER.

DâM-FunK | MySpace-musiikkivideot

More Christ­mas presents. Mud­dy­loop are giv­ing away free album in glo­ri­ous 320 kbps qual­ity. Yam. This is what they said about it:

“Six years ago we wrote and pro­duced an instru­men­tal chill­out album called “The Loverider Series” that got signed to a record label. The label ended up shelv­ing the album due to dis­tri­b­u­tion prob­lems so the release never got to see the light of day. Finally unearthed from the vault and spe­cially pre­sented for you for the first time ever, its Muddyloop’s lost album. The 11 tracks show­case an early Mud­dy­loop sound­scape of chilled quirky beats with an electro-eightiesness…”

Go here for the down­load.

Ye Ye Ye. It’s not Christ­mas Eve nor Christ­mas Day yet. Whatever.

These two acid-house remixes of Dj New­ton tunes are net­la­bel stuff = free to grab. Do check out the site for this album, cutegirl(.jpg), to hear other tunes besides those I picked: http://maltinerecords.cs8.biz/58.html

Dj New­town — 2005 (909state’s Acid House Remix 1988) (320kb mp3) — jack­ing house, ah oh uh. Albeit a bit short one maybe. So like 1988.

Dj New­town — 2005 (909state’s Acid House Remix 1993) (320kb mp3) — this one’s got pretty mas­sive ware­house Roland TB 303/ TB 303 emu­la­tion sound­wall. Slightly dis­torted drums are mixed bit low in vol­ume. Still, rough.

Plus, a third one.

Antoni Maiovvi — Veloc­ity Cen­tral (320kb mp3) — mod­ern italo disco from the man who had a minor hit back in 1984 with “(Rub­ber­sex) Lover”. Maiovvi’s got an album out on Seed Records.

“Kitkali­itto is a col­lab­o­ra­tive band of 3 friends from Helsinki to flesh out their ideas in music and visual arts.” First release from the guys came out quite recently on Kann Records: the Swamp EP. Deeper ter­ri­to­ries of house with some hints of techno, and def­i­nitely jazz. Get the dig­i­tal release from Beat­port, What­peo­ple­play or Jun­odown­load. As for the phys­i­cal copies, VINYL/WAX I’m refer­ring to here, it’s a lim­ited press­ing but Juno Records got some as does Hard­wax. And then there’s always Discogs. In Fin­land I’d go to Stu­pido.

And then cou­ple of free­bies. Both are still only demos but sound quite fin­ished tracks to me. Kitkali­itto — Helsinki (Instru­men­tal Mix) — click here to down­load (256kb). Great, deep “gypsy-house”.

Helsinki (instru­men­tal) by Kitkali­itto

Kitkali­itto — Ella — click here to down­load (320kb). Deep house with some jazzy touches of trum­pet. Lov­ing the vocal sam­ple and over­all vibes here. Top notch.

(Mix of the Week is our not-so-weekly sec­tion where we present good mix­tapes: either our own or found on the internets)

What needs to be said? Part 1 stays more to garage and deeper vocal house while part 2 has more of those rawer Chicago house sounds and some dri­ving disco. To down­load click the down­wards arrow on the right side of the box. Big thanks to Rico Passerini for upload­ing these live dj sets. Lots of oth­ers to be found on his Sound­cloud page.
