The Genesis Era

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

Rockin Wednesday # 5: Roxy Music

Another band you ought to know is Roxy Music. They were founded in London in the early 70’s and became popular for their special artrock sound. Due to their controversial record covers, they got criticized by a plenty of conservative groups which finally even achieved the censorship in the USA, Spain and the Netherlands.

This is simply hilarious

Recently we received a mail from Atlantic Records to remove a song from the upcoming album of B.o.B. which goes by the name “The Adventures Of Bobby Ray”.

This morning I received a mail from whitelabel.net. For all of you who don’t know whitelabel.net: this is a Serato DJ pool. Basically record companies send you digital tracks instead of real vinyl test pressings with a white label on it because the finished product isn’t available yet. Anyway – I’m getting off topic here…

To cut a long story short: you can download the whole album over at whitelabel.net (ATTENTION: you need Serato to play back the files in full 320 kbps though!).

Now that’s what I call clever. It’s 2010… like a good friend of mine always says: wake up!!

Hot Chip – I Feel Bonnie feat. Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy

I simply fell for this mix. I felt the original song always a little bit ‘too much’. I don’t know a better way to put this. Anyway – check this lovely mix. Way more on point.

the Great Lake Swimmers

Ever since i heard “Everythings moving so fast” i have been in love with this canadian band. in my humble opinion their greatest tune. but i have come to appreciate everything they have to offer. really enjoy their music and every now and then a band comes along where you don’t buy the music to own it, cause you legally never do – you just own the mechanical cd in your hands, but to support this band – so get it via amazon as long as we don’t have a  better system. Heck if i knew they money was going straight to them – i’d wire them 20 bucks right away just for the great music they have given me.

both tracks from their superb album: “lost channels”
