Uh,danas postoji toliko stilova i podstilova glazbe da čovjek više ne zna kamo što svrstati. Nerijetko se desi da je današnjim,mladim generacijama sinonim za house glazbu ona glazba koju rade D.Guetta,Tiesto i sl. Za njih osim housa,postoji i techno (to je ono što se vrti na partijima,kuiš ne).I to je to.
A u stvarnosti stilova ima masa.I svi su aktivni,imaju svoju publiku,svoje zvijezde.Jedino im fali eksponiranje u javnosti.Široj javnosti.Drugim riječima,ne spadaju u “mainstream”.
Od danas cemo Vam jednom tjedno predstavljati jedan (pod)stil house glazbe (uskoro još neki stilovi).Većina ga zove Jackin House.
Ne mješati sa “jackin’-om” iz 80ih,iz doba acid housa(ples,glazba,stil DJ-iranja).
Radi se o stilu koji isprepliće mocan bassline i elemente jazza,swinga,soula,diska,funka and hip hopa.
Za današnju,prvu “epizodu” Jackin 5,predstavljam Vam 5 pjesama u kojima su korišteni sample-ovi poznatih pjesama (80te i 90te). Slijedeće izdanje će predstaviti nešto “mracnije” pjesme inspirirane disco & funk glazbom.

 1. 1200 – 1200 Winehouse (1200 Milty Mix)
2. Crussen – Bag It Up
3. The French Connection – Hot Steppa
4. Da Sunlounge & Andy Inland Knights – Pop
5. d-t3ch – Swing and a Miss

Čudnog li naslova za članak,zar ne? Vjerujem da su stari perverznjaci odmah pomislili na filmove za odrasle proizvedene u dragoj Švedskoj. Mmm.. da. Ali ne.

Istina da ćemo spomenuti koke iz Švedske,ali samo zato jer rade odličnu, “pomaknutu” glazbu.

Icona Pop novo je ime koje nam dolazi iz Skandinavije, točnije iz Švedske. Aino Jawo i Caroline Hjelt stvorile su svoj melodican elektro-pop zvuk u koji su ubacile dubstep i synthove i oblikovale ga u “Nights Like This EP”.

”What grabs you first is that voice, a delicately sandpapered, yearning instrument that recalls Bill Withers over a shuffling, breezy funk rhythm.”
LA TIMES

Michael Kiwanuka je 23-godišnji soul izvođač, čiju glazbu usporeduju s glazbom legendi kao što su Bill Withers, Otis Redding, Van Morrison i Temptations, a opisuju je kao vintage kombinaciju soula, jazza i bluesa, popraćenu zvukom akustične gitare.

Nakon objavljena dva EP izdanja – “I’m Getting Ready” i “Tell me A Tale”, mladi Michael singlom “Home Again” najavljuje i izlazak istoimenog albuma prvijenca, koji nas očekuje u ožujku 2012.

Takoder, početkom prosinca nominiran je za BBC Sound of 2012, u sklopu kojeg su prošle godine bili nominirani fenomenalni Jamie Woon, James Blake, Jessie J i Clare Maguire. Pobjednik BBC Sound of 2012 bit će objavljen u siječnju ove godine.

Uživajte uz novo ime soul glazbe!

Biography With Michael Kiwanuka, it’s all about the voice. A voice that he describes as “hitting straight through to the core” with direct, emotional songs about love, yearning, comfort and belonging. It’s a voice that built him a following via MySpace and small London gigs, and led Paul Butler from The Bees to invite him to the band’s Isle of Wight studio to lay down these introductory tracks from what promises to be a major new British singer/songwriter. Which makes it all the more strange, really, that what Michael originally set out to be was a session guitarist who maybe wrote the odd song for other people. Growing up in North London, he struggled at times to see where he fitted in.  An avid England and Spurs fan, he found it hard to imagine a day when a name like Kiwanuka could sit comfortably on the back of a football shirt here. Nonetheless, when his parents took him and his brother back to Uganda to visit family, he and his brother were immediately recognised as British tourists. Like most of his schoolmates, he liked bands like Nirvana, Radiohead, Offspring and Blur, but it was only when he discovered that Jimi Hendrix was black that he understood he had a place playing rock guitar. In his teens, two other icons helped him find his voice. A friend gave him a Bob Dylan box set, and Michael was bowled over by the power of a well-crafted song, delivered with just urgent vocals and an acoustic guitar. Later, he was playing the free CD that came with a music magazine and heard an out-take of ‘Sitting on the Dock of the Bay’ in which Otis Redding was talking to the studio engineer. It made the soul icon seem more human, more accessible, and though there were later to be other influences from Bill Withers and Terry Callier to John Martyn and Laura Marling, it was Dylan and Redding who laid the foundations for Michael’s own rootsy, folk-inflected modern soul. He played in rock bands at school, and when he was 16 went east to Hackney in search of other musicians to work with. He began hanging out with Tiny Tempah collaborator Labrinth at his studio, played contemporary R&B, soul and jazz-funk at small jam sessions, and did some session guitar for the likes of Tottenham rapper Chipmunk. “It was fun and I learned loads, but I still felt like I didn’t quite fit in.  I couldn’t express the side of me that had played in rock bands, or listened to Dylan or Nirvana.” He began writing his own songs quietly at home, just for fun. They weren’t meant for other people to hear – at least not at first. “No one would give me a gig playing the kind of music I loved, so I had to write my own. It was more to keep my passion in music alive, just something to do to keep my soul warm, you know. It didn’t fit into what was in the charts at the time!” Eventually, he recorded demos of a few songs, hoping to give them to others to perform. But he was surprised to find that people loved his voice, and began encouraging him to play small shows. And finally, he found his place in the world.  “I love singing live, the feeling when you really connect with an audience, when suddenly there’s a hush and you can feel it in the air. It doesn’t happen all the time, but when it does, it’s really special.” This debut EP was produced by Paul Butler of The Bees, in the band’s Isle of Wight studio. “I’d just been playing my songs with an acoustic guitar, and that will always be the core, the thing I come back to. But Paul also encouraged me to mix in the kind of music I was playing when I was hanging out in Hackney, so I got to play a bit more electric, and a bit of bass, and it turned out to be quite a soulful record. It’s got folk things there but also influences like Shuggie Otis and Curtis Mayfield. I really enjoyed making it.” Tell Me A Tale, I Need Your Company and Worry Walks Beside Me are timeless songs that could only have come from Britain in 2011. Real, raw and achingly beautiful, they are just a taste of what is to come. *************************************** EP: ‘Tell Me A Tale’ The Isle of Wight Sessions Release Date: 13th June 2011 Label: Communion Records

The Drapers – Yakety Yak

Nakon mora obrada pjesama iz 80ih i 90ih(u velikom broju slučajeva LOŠIH),u novije vrijeme je trend hapanje prastarih hitova iz 50ih,60ih,70ih, te njihovo oskvrnjavanje (najblaže rečeno).
Yolanda Be Cool vs.Renato Carosone,Milk&Sugar vs.Vaya Con Dios,Bob Sinclar & Raffaella Carra i sl.
Evo  “obrade” pjesme grupe The Coasters “Yakety Yak” iz 1958.
