Tangerine Dream: Probe 6-8

Tangerine Dream Probe 6-8 Kscope Over the last two months I have gone near full immersion into the world of Tangerine Dream. It wasn’t because there was a new album coming, it was because I knew the name and influence, I knew the ideas and sound and I’d heard several of the soundtracks – at […]

Myele Manzanza: A Love Requited – The Remixes EP

Myele Manzanza A Love Requited – The Remixes EP First World Records Maybe there’s something in the fact that Myele Manzanza is a drummer – I mean first and foremost (he’s a DJ, producer, beatmaker, bandleader…) – but there’s just something, outside of an accessibility, that lends his tunes to being remixed. So much so […]

V/A: Graceland – The Remixes

Various Artists: Graceland: The Remixes Sony Music Cmg Paul Simon approved this. He’s also approved far too many live albums, Simon & Garfunkel reunions and around 87 unnecessary Greatest Hits compilations. But let’s just be clear, those other mild transgressions are what happens when a gifted songwriter receives far too many orders and offers across […]

Prince: Purple Rain (Deluxe) [Expanded Edition]

Prince Purple Rain (Deluxe) [Expanded Edition] NPG Records/Warner Bros. This is the one people have been waiting for – particularly since the sad news last year.

V/A: Gilles Peterson presents No Deal Remixed

Melanie De Biasio + Various Artists: Gilles Peterson presents: No Deal Remixed Play It Again Sam Melanie De Biasio’s No Deal album was something lovely – and special. And so in that truly bogus way, and showing that Gilles Peterson is stuck in his ways, presenting some future-chic remix chicanery that now sounds (ironically) so […]

Sola Rosa: Low and Behold, High and Beyond – The Remixes

Sola Rosa Low and Behold, High and Beyond – The Remixes Sola Rosa/Rosa Recordings Ltd Trading As Way Up Recordings Sola Rosa turned from one-man-band to big-band, from bedsit electronica project to funk jams for the stage – and yet, in over a decade the sound – or the feeling behind that sound – hasn’t […]

The Vinyl Countdown # 1279

  The Cure, Mixed Up (1990) I like this album – always have. I imagine it probably wasn’t all that popular at the time – a few purists, big time fans of The Cure might have had a moan about it not being “the real thing” or some such. But it was probably quite a […]
