The Genesis Era

The old days that started Chrome Music and YUM YUM. More producer than consumer. Everything fresh.

So not Disco Funk

My last week was pretty much amazing, great TOP FRIEND on Thursday and on Friday I got to know that I passed my graduation exams. So now, as I recovered from this heavy weekend-introduction and the days of celebration afterwards I’ll show you my 3 favourite Disco-Funk Tunes of the past week:

First here is the this lovely Disco song, which atually made it…pay attention to the words “think I like it”! My special cue for you: Think of the opposite of “Real” Blood (;

Next track. I doesn’t even know were I got it from but after a bit of research I realised that it must have been a huge dance track in the mid of the 90’s. So at that time I was small rug rat listening to my “Die Schlümpfe” cassetts, haha.

Last but not least, Jamiroquai, he’ll never die!

Cee Lo Green Mixtape “Stray Bullets”

Before his Solo Album drops Cee-Lo green drops a neat new mixtape, been all over the nets already but here you go: Download the full thing right here.

If the mixtape is an indicator of the abum it should be quite good.  Whats really worth noticing is that even an american big name made a cover version of Sokos “I kill her” , i think its so funny that this tune went so far. This tune has been a YUM YUM favourite for 2 years now and there seems to be no stopping to this song. Ps there is supposed to be a new Goodie Mob album coming out anytime soon. 2 tunes i pikced from the mixtape…

South Africa 2010

I know that the following track is pretty mainstream (somehow or other it has to be, since it’s the official theme song for the FIFA World Cup South Africa 2010), nevertheless I wanted to share it with you. To my mind it’s simply an indigenous, good song and it perfectly fits the mood of the current World Cup.
Consistent with the host of the FIFA World Cup 2010 I got you even more (mostly electronic) tunes with a nice African touch.

K’naan – Wavin Flag (Vanguards Remix)

Addendum: As you may realize, the Celebration Remix contains no political statements compared to the Vanguards Remix. The two versions differ almost entirely in lyrics. Obviously, the first version is solely meant to celebrate the World Cup (as you might guess from the title).

Have fun & feel free to comment/bash me for posting such a mainstream track.

A few fine dupstep tunes

The week was definitively too hot to look for good new music (around 30+ degrees most of the time – that’s pretty much for Munich), therefore I just made you a short summary of my favourite dubstep tunes right now (old & new ones).

For all our foreign visitors:  On the picture above, you can see the legendary “Eisbachwelle” @ “Englischer Garten”. If you are planning a trip to Munich, this spot is worth a visit!

Enough blabla, here are the tracks:
