Igor Goes To Hollywood.

"Igor Goes to Hollywood" is the featured track from the newest Hess Is More EP, "Democracy". Hess Is More is a danish trio led by mad man Mikkel Hess who came together to create three tracks of mutant disco jazz.

Appropriately titled, "Igor Goes to Hollywood" clocks in at ten and half minutes, and feels like a mega budget film score run amok - a brilliant combination of sounds and genres encompassing disco, jazz, folk and techno. Have a listen for yourself, and feel free to check out the whole Democracy EP and other releases on our Soundcloud page.

Another stellar release from Mikkel Hess!

mix01: Small Pyramids

This year I'm going to start sharing mixes from people I like. Some will come from djs; while others may come from musicians or producers or both. I may even throw in a chef or two. The point is - all mixes will come from forward thinking artists I respect and admire. Sounds nice, right?

If you're a regular reader of the blog, my first guest should come as no surprise. Really diggin' this mix of new hits, a few old ones and even some originals from a super talented dude who's been featured on here before; Small Pyramids.

Funky Spaniards.

Sorry for the lag in posting ... I've been record shopping! Does that count as a legitimate excuse?

Here's a gem I found for two bucks - a killer price for an album that often goes for much, much more.

Enjoy some psychedelic latin jazz disco funk from Barrabas.

An extremely interesting blurb about the band can be found here.

The more I read about these guys the more albums I want! (I now own two by the way,hehe.)
