Very nice item with extracts from 32 tracks of the MP2000 catalogue! With music by JANCO NILOVIC, JJ PERREY, GERARD LEVECQUE, GUY BOYER, ERIC FRAMOND, SILVANO SANTORIO, YAN TREGGER, RENE COSTY.... Check the MP3, the first 3 tracks are mixed like this on the record, so you can have an idea. All the extracts are between 30s and 1min. A very nice collector item for your Library section or your crib decoration.
Spelbounding orchestral sound, luscious arrangement and killer drums and bass on the beautiful "Canadian Colours" and its various parts. Between DAVID AXELROD and AIR first works!! With also "Colorado Sunrise" and "Cycles".
The master of sleazy euro funk (Le Mariage Collectif and countless soft or hard porn OST) on his own name here, delivers some tough hammond, moog, synth and various electric pianos groove on the always hard-to-find Bagatelle label. The growing climax of "Ebony Bonheur", "White Power", "Concerto For My Lady", "Sing A Radja Raga", the brutal samba of "Karinya", "Gold Fever"...one of the most innovative play in the lib game. One needle jump on the -uninteresting- first track.
THE ROGER MORRIS BAND – Light And Strong Beat (IM)
Big band funk bombs for days with the ninth release on the mythical Eddie Warner label. "Knock It", "Side Car", "Hard Labour" and more. No cover, giveaway price!
D.PERIAN / A.BALDAN – Happy And Crazy Music (Chappell)
Monster groove LP on this in-demand Chappell sub-division. Constant jerk action and huge pile of breaks for your sampler folders: "Pillot Crazy Drum", "Sentimental Crazy", "Happy Moonlight", "Crazy Love In Minor", "Happy Heart", "Crazy Baby Love" or "Last Pop Tango".
Ultra rare alternative cover version of this classic Janco set! Not sure if it's a commecial issue or just another version of the library press. Anyway... beautiful music + killer and rare cover art = a must have for any library collector!
Y. OUAZANA / JP FESTI – April Orchestra Vol.1 (CBS)
The mythical ans super rare very first April release! The dynamic duo OUAZANA/FESTI (Lucifer & Co, Hi fi Performance, Supsonic) kills again with the massive groovy scat tune "Exciting Mrs Brown". Check also "Bossa De La Place Balard", the excellent "Le Fil De Ver" sounding like a JC Vannier production! or "Direction L'Aventure". Glossy stock copy!
Super cult library for the real hardcore lib collectors. One of the rarer French label, here with the third release with this time the tough breakbeat groove of “Affric Heatsco”, and the cosmic disco funk “Disco Pour Aurelie”, “Oscar Star” and “Cheveux Bleus”. I would bet a couple of euros JC PIERRIC is behind this very new-boysesque LP.
Another ultra rare Musax references! Wicked jazz funk in a harlem pop trotters style. Listen to "Trois Caros", "High Funk Road", "A Step In The Void", "Stuffy", the killer fender rhodes led "Peter" and "The Loners", or my favourite track of the LP, the jazz funk female scat "Open Sylvania"!!
You know the deal with the title! Great bass-line based tracks with "Bara Bass", sampled by KID KOALA. And the equally good "Bass-ouka", the drummy "Bass-cule" and countless other sampling opportunities. Beautiful stock copy!
Rare April release by the Arpadys crew (Roland Romanelli and Jannick Top). The master of french cosmic sound are in command, and it can't be more catchy than this. Endless wicked synth vibes over trashy electro beats, with one of my favourite cosmic tune, "Astro Choeurs"!
"Interpol", the tremendous "Foot Down", "Police Car", the open drumbreak of "Transit", "Unknowing Surveillance", "Funky Pusher", "The Heist", "Malice", "Maniac"... simply one of the best drama funk lib out there! Record is lightly warped but it doesn't affect the music.
