Ivan Tchijevsky - Smile Brothers (MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2010-03-14 The life of hip-hop in the USSR era started with the rise of street breakdancing and festivals which took place all over the country. The first wave came around 1985 but the information on the movement and music was really rare, and the ones which were available became the platform for imitation. A lot of the upcoming breakdance crews slowly started to reform in to hip-hop collectives and the b-boys started to put toghether their own rap bands. This mix represents the hip-hop band, creators of which just happened to be the first wave of b-boys in the USSR. The members roots come from the 80s hip-hop. Member Skalya was a b-boy in Stop and Tetraider crews which later became Bad Balance. While other member was breakdancing in crew like Black and White (which was quite popular on tours and videoclips under the name Blanche & Noir, which took place in France) and Malchishnik. Later on, the guys formed a rap band named DETSO in the mid 90s. Consequently, the band was called Smile brothers and got quite popular with their videoclips and concerts being heavily rotated on MTV Russia (The image ad Bzzz on MTV, soundtracks for films: Don't even think, Sex and the city), and also had some releases: 1997 – DETSO I'm here, Kolya, 2000 – Smile brothers Julia loves, 2001 – Smile brothers Funkpositive, 2004 – Smile brothers Here is not there and also the internet release of Smile brothers – The Best (Remastered 2008). These days, the band is finishing recording their 6th album Old School and is working on its own antiart movie named The zombies here are wild. The Given compositions were released on labels: Krem Records, Stil Records, CD Land, Real Records, Souz and Mamapapa. Tracklisting : 01. Voulez-Vou 02. Zurich 03. Hurrah! 04. Barrymore 05.

Paris DJs Soundsystem - Who Is Molesting Laura ? (part 7) (MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2009-08-22 T.I.M.E.C. honchos Grant Phabao and Djouls have recorded at least half a dozen more Molesting Laura episodes for this podcast series of the Paris DJs Soundsystem. This new one is centered around instrumental interpretations of famous hits and classics. Once again, please leave a comment on the the Paris DJs blog if you want us to stop molesting the dear Laura. If on the other hand you enjoy the tasty selection of covers the Paris DJs Soundsystem are gathering every month... Then just leave a message of hope that we'll keep Molesting Laura on and on and on and on (and on)... Tracklisting : 01. Robert Walter - Rivers of Babylon (from 'Cure All' album, 2008 / Palmetto Records) Rare jazz-lounge cover of The Melodians classic. more info on parisdjs.com 02. Certain Lions and Tigers - Fever (from 'El Soul Condor' album, 1970 / Polydor) Fantastic cover of the Little Willie John classic popularized by Peggy Lee, recently reissued on Peter Herbolzheimer's Big Band Man (4xCD boxset). more info on dustygroove.com 03.

Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra - My Favorite Things (from 'A Very Ping Pong Christmas' album, 2007 / Ubiquity Records) Richard Rodgers wrote this standard for the 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The Sound of Music, then Herb Alpert and The Tijuana Brass made a big hit with it in 1968 and the song became a jazz standard for John Coltrane and many others. Shawn Lee's version... well it's Shawn Lee and you should be a fan like we are! more info on parisdjs.com or on wikipedia.org 06. Ultimate Breaks and Beats - Think(About It) (James Brown cover, from 'Ultimate Breaks and Beats' album, 2008 / Traffic Entertainment) The 'instrumental covers of famous breakbeats' concept album doesn't work well over one hour, even with Leon Michels and friends playing, but most tracks picked in there independently are neo-classics just like this James Brown cover so don't even hesitate. more info on parisdjs.com 07. Hot Fingers Jackson and The Soul Organ-Isation - Ode To Billy Joe (from 'Hammond Explosion' album, 1968 / Columbia) One may wonder why Bobby Gentry's original from 1967 became such a huge hit, but won't guess as to why we've chosen this groovy lounge instrumental cover by German organist Dieter Reith (under a pseudonym). more info on wikipedia.com 08. The Quantic Soul Orchestra - Get A Move On (Alternate Mix) (from 'Tru Thoughts Covers' compilation, 2009 / Tru Thoughts Recordings) Once more, this is NOT a Mr Scruff cover since his Get a Move On is really a remix of Moondog's Bird Lament. The Quantic Soul Orchestra alternate take, from Tru Thoughts' recent collection of covers, definitively rocks, though. more info on parisdjs.com 09. Cookin' On 3 Burners - Cars (Gary Numan cover, from 'Soul Messin' album, 2009 / Freestyle Records) The Bamboos's guitarist Lance Ferguson also plays in this Australian hammond trio, steaming funk recordings since 1997. Their cover of Gary Numan's 80s synth-pop hit tears the roof off in style: 21st century caffeine funk, tight like a virgin's ass! more info on parisdjs.com 10. Dojo Cuts feat. Roxie Ray - Uptight (Stevie Wonder cover, from 'Dojo Cuts feat. Roxie Ray' album, 2009 / Record Kicks) We conclude this mix with another Australian funk band and their raw, live and still soulful take on Stevie Wonder's classic. more info on parisdjs.com Original record artworks are available on the Paris DJs blog Credits : Selected and mixed by the Paris DJs Soundsystem (myspace.com/parisdjs) Audio mastering by Grant Phabao (grantphabao.com) Artwork by Djouls (djouls.com) using Anything But Saintly by Richard Deming pocket book artwork
