BSOTS 120 - Twenty Eleven Favorites, Obsessions, and Earworms (pt. one)
Now Playing: Fishbone - Live in Bordeaux
Topic: my podcasts

If it were already halfway through the year, maybe then I would feel uncomfortable about saying "Happy New Year." However, since we're not even done with the first month yet, I'm going to say it...

Happy New Year.

This year is already shaping up to be amazing musically, but forgive me if I'm still a little stuck on 2011. The amount of sonic spillover from last year could easily fill up this one. And there's always more that I know about, but never get a chance to hear. There's so much more that passes me by these days than I'm able to catch. Surprisingly enough, I'm okay with that. Probably because I know that I hear what I'm meant to hear. Music's cool like that.

No overly long intros. No needlessly extensive liner notes. Not this time. I believe in these artists, these albums, and these songs enough to simply let them speak for themselves.

Fifteen songs now, fifteen songs next episode. It's just a drop in the bucket from last year, but it represents the sounds that stayed with me the most. Hope you enjoy the show.

BSOTS 119 - BGB: As Far As It Depends On You...
Now Playing: Various Artists - Midnight Snacks
Topic: my podcasts

I'm sure that there are many who can look back at 2011 with fond memories and thankful memories. I am not one of those people. I am chomping at the bit for this year to be over.

It bothers me that I am 38 years old and can still find a myriad of things to scream "Screw This" about. The restlessness in my being feels like a guy in a straitjacket kicking at his four padded walls nonstop. I don't know much about a lot, but I know enough to believe that it can't be good to constantly be angry. Maybe that's why I haven't done more than one "buckwild" show prior to this one. At any rate, I need the release and perhaps you do, too.

There's a 25-minute mix that's dedicated to the out of work, the overworked, the "working poor," and anyone who's ever been harrassed by the cops about anything. There's Afrobeat, Swedish jazz fusion, global soul, angry hip-hop, even a little Fishbone in the mix. Should you need to let off a primal scream before 2011 comes to a close, let this show provide the soundtrack to your moment of much-needed catharsis. Happy New Year. All the best to you in 2012.

BSOTS 118 - Random Acts Of Musicology...
Now Playing: Kieran Hebden / Steve Reid / Mats Gustafsson
Topic: my podcasts

This episode is just another game of catch-up, featuring a bunch of artists and songs that I was listening to over the summer and some recent musical obsessions of mine. The Junk Culture cut I found through Promonet, which features the vocalist from Phantogram, so I was all over that. That's followed up by the lumberjack soul of Miles Bonny, the future flight of Union, and a new cut from Torae produced by Marco Polo. Hard to believe that this is coming from Torae's debut album; it seems like he's been in the game forever at this point. A pair of tunes from the unconventional hymnal follow after that, featuring the ill poetics of Propaganda and the biblical funk of Andrew Wartts and the Gospel Storytellers.

Hanna & Beatr8's "Flowers" has been on constant repeat for me and it's another example of how Sweden has been unfairly blessed with an ample amount of talent. Drunken Monkey's a new find for me and "July" takes me right back to the good vibes of summer. Vocalist Chrys-Anthony sounds amazing on this cut. Had to follow that up with the opener from Robin Hannibal's Bobby E.P. - he is an absolutely amazing producer. We pick up the pace after that with a classic from Quantic & Nickodemus, which was heavily featured in an iPod advertisement a few years back. Dotmatic piggybacks beautifully on the Quantic cut, which leads neatly into a Colman Brothers/Q-Tip mashup.

Billy Drease Williams brings back that feelgood hip-hop and the mood gets kicked up a few notches with the Pure P & Melo Remix of SoulParlor (with Oddisee in great form as usual on the mic). Producer K-Def gets hold of a De La Soul classic and the results are head nod whiplash-inducing. After that, it's time for a little boogie revival courtesy of Toro Y Moi and Breakbot turning in a fabulous remix of a Matthew Dear cut. Two real big obsessions for me over the summer were Jonti and Thundercat. Hopefully the cuts featured from both artists will serve as great reasons why.

The show closes out big with two artists that should be familiar to most who listen to this show. Jamiroquai uploaded "Smile" to his Soundcloud page about six months ago as a free download and it went pretty fast. Jay Kay really needs to stop teasing us and put out a new album already. Last but certainly not least, Jazzanova strolls through with expected beauty, a cut from their latest compilation entitled Coming Home. Had a lot of fun putting this one together and I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I did putting it together.

BSOTS 116 - The Priority Shift.
Now Playing: random acts of musicology...
Topic: my podcasts

 

This might sound crazy to you, but I've been having this conversation with GOD about music and my place within it for almost a year now. (First time that I would have talked about any of this was on my tumblr blog.) I believe it's had a direct effect on the amount of shows that I have released this year through the BSOTS channel. I tried talking about this while recording voiceovers for the last "buckwild" episode, but after rambling on for almost 20 minutes, I knew no one would listen and I hadn't the foggiest notion of how I was going to edit that session down. It sat on a thumb drive for about a month before I revisited it. I suppose that it was time to do so: seems as if the music chosen for the show led me to picking just the right sound bites from that voiceover session.

As a result, this show is a strange mixture of my current musical obsessions and my constant drive towards finding out what my purpose is in life. I'm not certain if people will really get this show or not; all I know was that I had to do this one. It's part cinematic instrumentals, part slow motion house, part spoken word, part left-of-center hip-hop, part unconventional hymnal, and jazz and ambient selections as well. All this and my musings on GOD, music, and my attitude towards music at the end of last year that directly influenced my approach towards releasing new BSOTS episodes in 2011.

I hope all of this is presented in such a way that it makes sense to you. If not, feel free to let me know. Here's hoping that purpose has come around your way and made itself known to you. As for me, I'm still searching...

BSOTS 115 - In The Mix With South West Seven
Now Playing: Good Times (not the song from Chic, but the sitcom...)
Topic: my podcasts

In what will probably seem like a complete and total 180-degree turn from the unbridled chaos of the last episode, this show finds Camp Lo-Fi with its dancing shoes on, grooving to the sounds of Scope, one-half of DJ/production duo South West Seven. If you want to hear these tunes in an unmixed form, almost all of them are available at Beatport. Just check the buylinks below. We really ought to play more house music around these parts; Scope absolutely killed it. Respect due to Kahua Music for sending his mix our way.
