Rocket up your ass



No Restless Funk this week as I'm ill. However I'd been meaning to throw together some Ra stuff for a while, so here you go...






I really love everything about Sun Ra, the craziness, the attention to details, the artwork, the DIY nature of a lot of his work, the discipline, hell, even the music!





This is imagery and music I've picked up along the way, when you start it becomes kind of an addiction within an addiction...









If you're starting out, your best bet is the Art Yard reissues for vinyl unless you have a rich benefactor who doesn't think original press vinyl is a crazy investment. There's a lot out there in terms of reissues to be had for cheap though.




When you talk about labels, El Saturn is king. There's discographies out there, but none of them has it all. Geerken's "Omniverse" looks pretty terrific, but at about £1000 for the book, I'll stick with Campbell & Trent at 900 odd pages.








There's not enough Ra label porn out there, I've been meaning to put something together from my own stash but I'm not so fast with photoshop so I've just slung this together:



Oh, and the music?

It's not something, right?

The number of registered space cadets in the village is stratospheric but it's been a while since I went anywhere near full biscuit round here. I had a bit of time and although I didn't quite reach the full psychosis intended (a quiet, sunny Sunday afternoon doesn't lend itself) I'm glad I pressed "record"...

School Daze

I've not had my mind blown by music for a very long time. Crazy then that it turns out to be a gay porn soundtrack from the 70's which manages to blow most modern music out of the water that sizzles my neurons with the most alien and futuristic score that has more in common with krautrock and new wave than the hi-NRG it's composer is most known for, noting that the dude was still in school when dreaming this stuff up. Go figure.

Two's up

Whilst skivving off work I read two excellent and entertaining articles, the first a piece written by Dr Rob (of testpressing.org fame) is a city guide to Tokyo - however in Rob's inimitable way it turns into a description of the high's and low's of record nerds the world over...


The second article is an interview with the lovely Eddie Ruscha aka Secret Circuit involved in other projects too numerous to mention. I make no secret of the fact that I'm a fanboy of people like Eddie and Harvey but it's not that I am really into their music, productions or DJ sets, more just into their vibe, envious of their lifestyle and wish to be as totally chilled and dude-like as they appear to be. Plus this interview made me want to go and buy a million records which is probably a very bad thing (in a very good way). Funnily enough he's interviewed here by Dr Rob:

I Do.



I read once that sometimes you step away from the disco. Occasionally I step away, but generally remember that I need to disco once in a while. It's good for the soul, said Walter. You either do disco or you don't said Thomas. What is Disco, like balearic it's kinda hard to define as for some it's the philly sound, for some it's Berghain, monday AM. For others it's sweat dripping off the ceiling onto an Art Blakey record through an apricot haze or late 60's rock blasting out over the altar. I'm undecided, but I know that I do Disco, oh yeah, I do.

There's a party in the village this friday night (19th July), at CB2 (just off east road) called "The Love Below". It's from 8pm - 12am so get there early, they're just trying to make it nice, seen?
