Bar Kuka tomorrow

Tomorrow we play tasty records at Kuka again. It's Wednesday night so the emphasis will be on moody, atmospheric records. No disco or house on board, but loads of interesting records nevertheless. Indie, electronic, pop, guitar stuff, Finnish versions - you name it. I'll take the famed dj phone with me, too.

Here's a quick top 10 of what I've been feeling lately:
Shuggie Otis - Aht Uh Mi Hed
Todd Rundgren - Be Nice To Me
G.A.N.G. - Incantations
Mike Simonetti - Third Of The Storms [feat. Sam Sparro]
Double - Woman Of The World
John Legend Vs Adele - Rolling In The Deep (DJ Moodz Booty)
Clubfeet - Count Your Lovers (Eli Escobar Mix)
Geoff Bastow - Communique (Arsenii Edit)
The Cure - Lullaby
Lambchop - Paperback Bible

Hope to see you tomorrow,

Feel good hits of the summer

Just a post summarizing the big hits of summer 09.



By the combined force of A-Trak & Armand van Helden, which equals to Duck Sauce. Even if this one is still waiting to be released in a vinyl format, it's already huge. I've heard it played in so many dj sets around here. Disco sample muscled and sped up for the dance floor is such a winning recipe.

The other big disco song has been this Eli Escobar remix of an old Stevie Nicks classic. Check the video here. Such a meaningful tune with emotional singing performance by Nicks. Stands out real good from the usual disco lyrics, which are pretty upbeat but a bit tacky.

The last one is an old one that has been dug up this summer, first by Swedish dj's, then a few tastemaking Helsinki dj's and later by everybody else. It's Magnus Uggla's Sommertid.



By the way, all of the above have been spotted from blogs/forums a good while back. It's the internet-age, baby.
