House Of The Day...

I heard this song earlier and it is spring in Lawrence, Ma... nice combination.
Also just found the entire John Anthony West series "Magical Egypt in it's entirety posted on Youtube...
If I didn't have a dad already, I would write Mr. West and ask him to be dad.

Oh Those Blues....



Todd Edward's music has always been some of my favorite mood stabilizers. I think I own everything he's ever put out and he's more than partially to blame for my i! Records addiction (in recovery as there aren't anymore to buy :). I remember hearing Alabama Blues on a Dana Kelley mix from 1995 and it was a mitigating factor getting me deep into house/garage music back in the "RAVE DAYS."

Here's a couple of my favs...








this is one of my absolute favorite garage recs... whenever I hear this my mind plays the same mental music video it played in 1995 in which some crazy, pitchfork wielding farmer is dancing around with a blade of grass in his mouth, bare feet and a pair of dirty overalls... he opens a can of psychedelic beans or something and the song starts playing. hmmm...


and speaking of crazy farmer house...
the Moreso - "Take My Hand" release on i! Records in 1998 was frigging RIDICULOUS!
I have the vinyl somewhere and will post the 4 tracks in entirety soon but for now here's the most "clubby" of the 4 tracks. It's got a very Todd Edwards style vocal dubbing going on.


And while we're on UK Garage...
honestly, I'm not a big fan of the cheese garage stuff. However there is a creepyness to alot of the Todd Edwards tracks and also Filthy Rich's B-Side stuff... this record falls into that category... Man I used to flog this record... oh the 90's. My copy of this was actually cracked one night. The insode B cut is still playable... I'm pretty sure the track is the first dubstep format song ever. Another one I need to dig out. This youtube vid is the inside a-cut I think.
G.O.D. Limited 5

and another G.O.D. Limited record... #4.
A nice Deelite sample in there... nastttty bassline. I don't think my copy even plays anymore :)

***New Music*** from Hatchback




Earth's huddled masses continue their subconscious preparation for a paradigm shift and one of the more tolerable byproducts is Hatchback's new release "The Violet Sequence." I'm pretty sure this track was on Hatchback (Sam Grawe)'s Zeus & Apollo Soundcloud page about a year or so ago but no matter. Apparently, Sam's job as editor of the ever-so-fuckable Dwell Magazine is keeping him too busy to manage more than one secret music moniker. No matter... Dwell Magazine, if human, could certainly appreciate a sensible consolidation of the many lush soundscapes of present-day Hatchback. Brooding beneath a shimmering ambiance, musical vehicles such as The Violet Sequence are proto-ambient disco gems. Hatchback will gently envelope your senses while flying you off in a vintage '53 lunar lander. Android love-bots will beckon to your subconscious from Mikado Yellow Baughman chairs and peering from their 22nd century bay window. Ok, so perhaps I'm being dramatic but Sam's music makes it just that much easier to imagine that the kinder-gentler Utopian dream is not so far off after all. Some music of the "Cosmic" and/or "Balearic" genres can leave you sour from the settling dust of contrived fuzziness or 'look-at-me' melodies. Hatchback's songs trigger some Atlantian meme in my subconscious. Receptors are synthetically rewarded for a 'job-well-done.' Barrel chested ghosts of Easter Island and well-groomed inhabitants of true ancient Egypt (circa 38,000 BC) walk alongside cantankerous Nephilim listening to Sunn O))) on teal iPods and for a moment everything seems to warp into logical sense. In our present times of prefab fear, name-brand wonder, and seemingly endless disinformation it's easy to laugh off the last few years' deluge of "cosmic", "slo", "step", etc. as a byproduct of world culture-gone-mad, a sort of inevitable waste product. Good thing there are artists like Hatchback who prove there to be another more righteous source of art. His internal 'tuner' can clearly descramble a station that resonates deeply with what we presentlyare as human beings but which also gives us a deep sense of where we may be going. The highway of lost house-heads, try hard hipsters, and LSD pseudo-disco-gangsters has an exit in sight.

Neglect... oh cruel neglect.




I guess I'd better hop back behind the wheel of the world before things are too late. I mean, what the hockey sticks, man. I take 6 months for myself and the world starts to crumble around me. The remix nazis have struck and struck hard but there there's still plenty o' music up here on the LMQM.
I'm just not going to describe anything anymore. I think the worst part about it all is there's no trial, or even discussion. You log on one day and half your music has been removed. Swear I could call a song (name of famous d-bag's song) and it doesn't even have to have anything to do with it. It'll be removed "just in case"
But w/e....
Here's a Mixtape by Houston's Sean Mac - aka Casual Encounters. Some great slo-mo-ish stuff on here.

So Massachusetts is almost dug out from the record snow fall this winter. I could say 8 or 10 feet but no one would believe me anyways. definitely some snow drifts upwards of 15 feet though.
I'm out. More to come. I promise to do my part to ease humanity into the abyss. (that's morbid, i don't really believe all that morbid crap)
