Magnavox is a producer duo (Ju + Mr.Ropper) formed not so long ago in a place called Spain. Recently they released the Through the Fire Demo which we talked about a little earlier. They return with another drop entitled Bamboleo. It’s very fresh. Magnavox are apart of Le Vedu, which you can catch here! What a sound!

Salad is a Canadian DJ from Ottawa who has been producing music for the last two years or so now on his current stuff, he has been Dj’n for the past four. Within that little time frame he has perfected some great jazz-based disco that plays right up our alley. The two beats he tossed us tend to start off with something seemingly simple, but then the combination of electro, funk, disco, and jazz come together to create something quite more abstract than I could have ever expected. The sound is something serious and the killer of course is the light jazzy keys. They give each track that added boost that could brighten anyone’s day.
- Whether it’s performing his Greek, fruit and Mediterranean salad mixes as a dj, or performing his originals with his gang of cronies, The Disco Vikings, Salad’s objective is to liven up the party and such objective is never disappointed.
Watch out for his latest EP, set to release late August. Check here for that. Until then, enjoy Pushing’ Pressure and Chicago, two tracks to be featured on the album.

Stumbled into a bundle of hot new remixes to Cullen’s Easily Impressed. Both of these are crazy hot and brought to you by no one other than Calling In Sick & Redial. It’ll be a coin toss to see which one gets played more. Calling In Sick uses a few sporadic samples while changing the tempo throughout to give the song a bit of a boost here and there so it’s hard not to dig it. But Redial brings in a little dark flavour that accents the entire track so well. I think his funky bassline takes the cake for me. So I will give it the slight edge and asterisk it… but what do you think?
As always props goes out to the blogs that hear these sick tracks before us. This time our shout-out goes to dodselectro. Tobias and the crew are consistent at delivering the goods. Here is further proof -> Check them out here…& just for interest sake, Tobias chose the Calling In Sick Remix as his favourite.

I absolutely love the vocals in BudNubac’s I’m Going to Follow. It’s sultry latin-loungey rhumba at its finest. I don’t really like the breakdown that happens 4.5 mins-in as the track begins the fade-out, but other than that it’s amazing. I love retro lounge stuff like this. BudNubac (aka Robin Taylor-Firth – Nightmares on Wax, Olive, Subma Chena), Rawle Bruce (Subma Chena), Sara Garvey (Nightmares on Wax), Shovell (M-People), and many others all appear to lend a helping hand to the project. Find more wonderful music from them here.

Alright so a friend of mine came across what she depicted as ‘Electric Swing’. Whatever it is, it’s fucking mint.
The problem is (and I must admit it is a pretty big problem), and that is we have no idea who is behind any of this. These tracks are a rip off a ‘chain’ CD that somehow was passed through the reigns until it landed onto us. Plus, it’s a burnt copy with no CD information and I don’t have an iphone with handy gadgets that tell me how the universe goes ’round, or more specifically, tell me who is behind these next few tracks. So I digress from my rant and apologize if you want to know more! As do I.
Hopefully one of you out there reading this can take a listen and instantly tell me who this is. I even recognize a couple samples within (or think I do), not sure if they’re originals or what and it’s killllllling me! I am amazed at your talentedness. Talentedness… it’ll catch.
Below you will find a few samples from the album.
♫‘ Parov Stelar – Catgroove’ *****
♫ ‘Mr. Scruff – Get A Move On’
♫ ‘G-Swing feat. Le Major Melon – La Voix Humaine’
Please tell me the artist name, album name, or track titles if you know them! I would love to fill in the blanks.

Eddie C (shown on the right) brings us some rare funk vibes today. I can’t get enough of Hold On right now, but what initially caught my eye was the delicious track You’re Welcome. The Canadian West-Coast native generally mixes experimental funk beats. If you’re like me and love these, then follow up here for more beats.

Henrik Schwarz changes things up on here with a lil funky jazz edit to Bill Withers Who Is He. This track is dirty. If you like real chillin’ rhythm and laid-back vocals or something new with a funk-dub twist, then look no further. Schwarz is here and hails from Germany. He regular dips into the house/jazz scene, so if you like this there’s more available at his myspace including a list of upcoming shows you should definitely hit. I just stumbled across him this past week so this song below is the first track that hooked me. It’s great. I hope you enjoy it.
