Cadence Revolution – Show 74

July 26, 2008

Don’t ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

We warm things up with the aural travelogue of emotions and feelings that Jay Della Valle creates with his music and then slide into the bluesy Buddy Holly sound of world traveling Derek James.

Closing the warm up is New York based Tara Leigh Cobble who when she isn’t creating music is busily writing books and articles and running her own indie empire.

French masters of military pop Derniere Volonte crank things up, as we then follow up with Inca Maya who like to channel Led Zeppelin and The Allman Brothers with funky grooves and big hooks that will make you want to shake your money maker.

Mr. De’ keeps things shaking with the sound of his hometown of Detroit and funks up the tempo for something that is labeled ‘Ghettotech’, as we then glide into another new sound.

‘Nortec’ is what you get when you fuse the sounds of accordion and horns of Northern Mexico (Norteño) with the energy of electronic beats, and Bostich and Fussible give it a more organic sound, putting extra emphasis on acoustics.

Keeping this in the Nortec vibe is Panóptica, founded by Roberto Mendoza one of the main figures in the Mexican electronic scene since the late 80s.

Next up is the collaborative efforts of Ananda Project, with their eclectic and sensuous sounds that meld euphoric soulful house with contemplative R&B, spiritually-minded cosmic jazz-fusion, organic Balearic grooves, supple electronic textures and percussive Afro-Latin rhythms, and Frankie Feliciano known for his love of dark jazz, and Brazilian songwriters.

With their debut album ‘Bringing Down Goliath’ now out, Second Dan get to show off their mixture of lyrics that will make you think and hook laden music that makes it hard to sit still.

We close the work out with songs form two UK based groups, The Black Ghosts, Theo Keating and Simon Lord, are an electro musical duo describe their style as “perverse, personal pop music”, while The Charlatans return with their latests release that shows these kings of indie rock have a tight grip on the crown and aren’t about to let go.

We cool things down with the multi-media artist Antony Raijekov who has been turning his unique blend of cool electronica since 2003, before we dial things down a little bit more with the Dub sounds from Volfoniq vs Trema and then close this weeks show out with another track from Tokyo 507 who dial down their usual lazzy jazzy groove to a molasses like flow.
