Style: Deep Downtempo / Cosmic Throb / Sensitive Soft Rock

Format: 12"

Label: When Doves Cry

Year: 2021

Condition: M/M

It’s a strange world we’re living in and these addictive cuts mirror it well.

Dancing all night in cheerful melancholy with two strictly limited edits.

The A-side renders gothic synth pop at cruising tempo, spinning a web of tape delay as your mind unravels. A bassline throbs, pistons hiss and a paranoia takes hold of an icy vocal. Lose yourself in the otherwhere.

We step into a pristine wilderness on the B-side, stately pads gliding over a supple rhythm section while tender chimes tug at your heartstrings. Emotion abounds on an instrumental which never was. Big boys do cry, and this dove’s weeping over broken wings…

Condition: M/M generic cover

I am obsessed with this record and it transformed me from a regular fan to a huge Ed Chamberlain fan. Last year I have been pestering all my friends trying to find that Ed to make a 3LP comp of his tracks, but nobody could provide a contact. Not even people who recorded or played with him 10 years ago. That Semantica dude didn't even answer my emails... but he repressed Ed's best record. Well at least something good happened.

Style: D.A.N.C.E.

Format: 12"
Label: Talking Drums

Year: 2021

Condition: M/M 

Talking Drums are back with a bang for 2021 taming another couple of unclassics, offering end of night emotion and druggy chug on this wavey wax. The A side looks skywards from the Mediterranean shore, waves of delay lapping its toes as Italo melancholy and Balearic sincerity go straight to its head. A lovelorn ragazza finds comfort in kalimba and 'Wicked Game' sobs softly from a nearby tabaccheria, signing off a postcard of this holiday romance. Things take a turn for the trippy on the flip as 'Close Orbit' shifts gears on a synth-pop standard in favour for a zero gravity throb. Packed with slap bass, slanky percussion and the faint hint of new beat, this Afro-cosmic stomper is a slow tempo, high energy heater.

WTF!?!

I just rediscovered this one whilst looking for electro jams for a mix. Listened to this with jaws somewhere near my belly button. Sick acidic electro plus sci-fi jazz workouts (Lisa Carbon is just another alias) and then these insane remixes!! My fave might be Herbert's underwater mix, but hearing Pooley again bridging the gap between Acid and Discohouse after all these years is real fun too.

Terry Keegans 2nd album. (Longtime followers of the bin will have seen the 1st one here 8 years ago) It's a bit harder to come by unfortunately. Maybe because people rather keep it. Maybe that is because the tunes - ranging from bewitching chants to drum machine danse - are really one of a kind. And what a kind that is ... (big fave at the Flanger Studio ;)

Style: Synth Funk / Fusion

Format: LP
Label: Supraphon

Year: 1981

Condition: NM/NM

Wooohoooo! I have no idea how these guys found each other in times of the cold war, but what a gift is this? Viklicky is czechoslovakia's #1 fusion keyboarder, Bill Frisell might be known to one or two freaks here (1981 was really at the start of his career), Kermit Driscoll (sorry I have never heard of him) on bass and uh, the Stark Reality percussion force Vinnie Johnson on drum. And what does it sound like? Well, it's funkier than RMO, trippy as Magma and soulful like George Duke's 70s work on MPS. Sounds like something Daniel Dumile would have sampled ...

Style: Electric Bebop

Format: LP
Label: Rockwerk (Private)

Year: 1988

Condition: NM/VG+

Excellent & prize-winning Fusion. With that special kind of Boogie influence which is significant for a few german synth-fusion productions from the late 80s. Hard to explain, but you might understand when you check the soundclip. Comes with a collection of xeroxed newspaper articles about the band, an A4 photo and a never seen before HUGE poster.

Style:  Fusion

Format: LP
Label: MPS Metronome

Year: 1975

Condition: VG+/VG+

George Duke's 70s albums on MPS belong to the finest fusion records of the genre. I Love The Blues, She Heard My Cry is no exception. From mellow funk in Sister Serene or Prepare Yourself (sampled by Madvillain) over some nitty gritty blues featuring Johnny Guitar Watson to awesome fusion fire in Giant Child Within You & Chariot - a feast for our ears!

Bass dominated Fusion from a guy who has almost seen it all. He played with Lindenberg on Free Orbit, was part of Achim Reichel's Machines, played for Guru Guru, Tomasz Stanko, etc etc. Reading all that you might guess hes on the righht path, eh? Verification below...

Ladies & gentlemen, strike your most curious pose and welcome WDC101 into your lives and living rooms. One gentle adjustment of a tunes that shoulda, woulda coulda been a hit if it weren’t for that horrible hook, overblown saxophone or depressing denouement.
