Antimix 14...

I'm guessing that everyone's had sufficient time to recover from Mr. Krum's £18 worth of super duty tough work that is/was ANTIMIX 13 (none of the records he used cost more than £1, apparently) to move onto the next in the series which has been compiled by no-one's favourite antisocial, balding, drunken DJ and beatmaker who talks about himself in the third person on a blog that nobody actually reads, Fish.

This one was put together during a particularly punishing schedule of getting drunk, smoking cigarettes, painting graffiti, scouring Facebook for things to reblog, scouring the hindernet for porn (for, ahem, research) and rearranging little bits of people's music for other people to do rapping over.

It's the usual reasonably subtle blend of old and new, drum heavy, sampled and sampleable jazzfunkpsycherocksoulandthat which I'm sure you've probably heard before but, it's not costing you anything -other than about 200mb of precious hard drive space which, let's be honest, you'd only fill with filthy pictures anyway - so, stop your complaining.

Unfortunately, the links for these compilations are becoming more and more difficult to keep live (home taping is killing music don't you know!) so you had probably better CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD NOW before it disappears into the ether forever...

Mr. Krum - Antimix 13...

The second of this month's low-budget themed ANTIMIX comes from Vinyl Veteran and graphic designer, Mr. KRUM who, as well as compiling a great selection of music, also found time to write a few lines about each of the featured tracks which you can check out (along with his work for independent labels such as SLICE-OF-SPICE, KING KONG HOLDING COMPANY, DIGGERS WITH GRATITUDE, BREAKIN BREAD, BLUNTED ASTRONAUT, PROJECT BLUE BOOK et al...)HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE .

Here's what the man himself had to say by way of introduction...

"OK, so I wanted to call this mix the 'Poundland Edition' as every record on here (bar one) cost me no more than one English pound.
Andy Westbury from Eldica in Dalston asked me the other day what's been my best charity shop/boot sale find, which is pretty much an impossible question to answer as most of my Soul, Funk, Jazz, Breaks, etc, has been picked up cheap over the years from these types of places so, I decided to sift through the collection and pull out some of my favourite/most memorable finds.
Instead of making choices based solely upon rarity, I've tried to put together a selection that, although not actually a mix as such, still has a fluency to it - that's the idea anyway! It's also given me the opportunity to include a lot of records I don't usually get a chance to play out, which is nice :)"

Antimix Eleven...

Yup! Yup! Yup! Mr Fish has returned with yet another sixty-something minutes of scratchy soul/funk/jazz/rock records (no MP3 or reissue business here...), inappropriate sound effects, distorted levels and big drums for your listening pleasure

Antimix Ten...

It's simple - it's not a podcast, there's no talking or rap shout-outs, just an hour or so of sampled/sampleable/plain-fucken-good records, played back to back, with no mixing or turntable trickery and it's available as a FREE DOWNLOAD. Couldn't be easier.

For this installment, the eternally miserable, misanthropic record collector, DJ, MC and sometime ANTISOCIAL contributor known as DOCTOR ZOOTS finally finds the time to share a selection of music from his deep crates with the ill-informed masses.

July...

Been listening to July a lot over the past couple of years. A really interesting Psychedelic group from Ealing who (as far as I know) only made one album in 1968 before splitting up a year later.

Out of the ashes of July came Jade Warrior, whose early work still had an edge of psychedelia. Their later music became more progressive and ambient over the years, light years away from the early July stuff but still an interesting listen.
