” Traveling Denim ” Recording color fade for two years from Takayuki Akachi on Vimeo.
This is a documentary film that a girl wearing denim traveled over 50 countries in two years.
The denim walks freely in the world, meets people, changes and fades.

Check back in the next couple of weeks. I have an interview with the man behind this (and international feel recordings) coming up.
Nice piece of kit they have produced here though…

Well, it is finally finished. Not that it took me a long time to do - only that it took me a long time to get started…
For the new and uninitiated; every so often I am fortunate enough to make it out to Tokyo for a spot of record digging. When I come back I put together a mixtape of the records I bought. Not necessarily Japanese records, or good records, or rare records, or well mixed. But all the same, records that I picked up in Japan, that I quite like.
Track list will be up soon.
Previous volumes are now on mixcloud here…

Came across this while digging the other day and I have taken a bit of a shine to it. Sly and Robbie on the riddim.
Vocal and Dub version back to back for extended listening pleasure. Should be worse than it is, but when the sun is at the right angle it sounds sweet.
End of the night vibes.

Cracking song and video from ex-Monkee, friend of Zappa, and all round dude Michael Nesmith. Kind of in that rock-disco mold.

There should be a newly completed mix up on test pressing soon, I will let you know when it drops. Just some summery tunes that I have been enjoying recently.
Other new release news, Don Froth’s 10,000 CCs has finally dropped on vinyl. You can pick it up exclusively at Phonica at the moment, before it is distributed more widely later in the month. Once the vinyl is gone digital versions will be available I’m told.
Vinyl is limited it 444 hand printed gems and the art work is something special.
Going back to 1991 for this track - one of the highlights of Toru’s set with DJ Nature back at Christmas time. Sounded so fresh on the Plastic People sound system. If this is your first time hearing the track, stick around to the seven minute mark for the Lil Louis style breakdown…say no more.
Classic.

One of the 12″s I picked up in Tokyo*…first came to a lot of people’s attention when Mark E edited it in a slow-mo/Moodymann/tripped out/stripped down style that has become his sonic trademark.
I felt the need to get the 12 and once I did I realise I like it more pitched up a bit to aid the boogie factor.

*Tokyo Drifter 3 is on the back-burner at the moment but I will get to it and put together some of the records I picked up on my last vinyl shopping trip. Keep believing…

A convergence of distractions at the moment, between starting a new job, the hot weather that has arrived, and the World Cup; the blog is on hiatus at the moment. England are still in there with a winner takes all game against Germany tomorrow.
Just wanted to get back online and post this: an edit that I found online that I had completely forgotten I had made. I think this is from 2005, a simple little cut and paste edit for a few DJ friends. Never got an official release, and after various computer melt-downs I am not sure I even have a copy.
Anyway, so here it is…
