Track of the Week from Audio Sushi in association with UJ

 

Hard House Banton "Sirens 

With releases from The Killers, Guns N' Roses, Kanye West and TakeThat. Plus Paul McCartney. Who could ask for anything more? Well me. I'm still tripping and I don't want Monday to come and I want to still DJ music called FUNKY all night long.

Childish, I know. But this is the new club sound that you'll never hear anywhere else but in a slightly dangerous, dodgy area, niteclub [read: mine] at 3am morning and will perhaps only make sense in that context. Everything about this release is predicated being off your face, making young people off their faces  dance, and not being worried about how this might sound on the podcast. Repetitive as fuck, with sirens, hammering drum programming and dead simplicity -  this track symbolises everything that you won't know if you're not still out every weekend, and most weeknights, lost on the dancefloor... in spite of everything - and also being branded in the post pariah funky house "funky" only moniker - it comes to be one of those tracks which people ask for 3 or 4 times after hearing it and will definitely be in my top 10 singles of 2008. It's "Energy Flash" for 2009. Included here is another big funky track, D Malice's  "Gabryelle Refix"

Artist: Hard House Banton
Title: "Sirens"

    Cleveland, Ohio's Kid Cudi remixed by the Italian sonic alchemists the Crookers came up with this massive track of the year.

    Sounding like Nico in a haunted disco, "Stars and Houses" is  from Glass Candy's new collection of singles, B-sides and rarities  -  "Deep Gems."

  • Track of the Week: Mulatu Astatke

    Every time I play this I'm asked what it is, so this week is a good week to point out Mulatu Astatke's "Yegelle Tezeta," as never before has African music been so incredibly hot.

  • Track of the Week: Grace Jones "Williams Blood"

    Finally, the wait is over....here is the first single from Grace Jones - The Hurricane album. It is called Williams Blood and comes with remixes from Mad Professor, Greg Wilson and Ivor Guest.

  • Track of the Week: Wild Beasts

    In the week where we have the quadruple Chart diva pile up of Britney, Beyonce, Christina & Leona I thought it might be a good moment to introduce you to a much more exciting diva, Hayden Thorpe, from the skyrocketing band Wild Beasts.
