Get ‘Em Mamis: Alpines Kickin’, Cold Summer, Soul Talk
From: Terawesome [Darkroom Productions, 2009]
Ok. Finally got a break and some time to get into what I started in January – ladies throwing down on the mic… thanks 2Shaney and E.Powers for the excellent suggestions; I’ve been digging on all the artists you mentioned. Let’s kick it [...]

Anyone else psyched about the return of the lovely Sade? [new album drops: 2.8.2010]
Sade: Soldier of Love
From: Soldier of Love [Epic, 2010]
I’m a long-time fan, and, the new single doesn’t disappoint. It retains her patented smooth and adds some nice trip hop elements. Pure class. Aging gracefully. Hard to believe she’s 50!
On a semi-related note: [...]

Talen (featuring Sizzla): The Vibes-A Sizzla Tale
From: Kingston Book [Mouthwatering Records, 2009]
After the positive Fela! experience, I’m trying to not ignore promo emails so much. I’m glad; otherwise I would have missed out on this fine jam – a wonderfully successful collaboration between Winterthur, Switzerland based production/DJ crew Talen Bass System and Dancehall legends Sizzla [...]
![Fela! On Broadway #2 [a Review]](http://dejiridoo.com/blog1/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Fela2.jpg)
For those interested, my good friend Deji Olukotun made his way to Eugene O’Neill Theater last week to experience Fela! On Broadway. Here is a brief sampling of his account:
… The story begins with the impending closure of The Shrine by the government. It’s as good of a starting point as any other. Fela, played [...]

Fela Kuti & Afrika 70 – Sorrow, Tears, & Blood

A few months ago, I received a PR email asking if I wanted to receive some “cool stuff” that might, perhaps, inspire Earfuzz to help spread the [...]

Cores: BabylonFrom: Babylon EP [Noom Records, 1997]
A few months ago, we had a nice Earfuzz email powwow to get our summer posting outlook sorted. Each of the writers chimed in with enthusiasm in favor of delivering a steady flow of posts throughout the coming lazy days. I know summer isn’t quite over yet, but, thanks [...]
Break ‘N Spin: Break ‘N Spin [Singh Records, 1984]
This track is definitely hitting the spot in the midst of busy muggy summer; enough bounce to get you up, and, enough chill to keep you steady. 1984… who knew it could be this good?… apparently RealFreshBlog (thanks for posting!).
[[Does anyone else find the intro similar to [...]

The New Mastersounds: Thermal BadFrom: Plug & Play [One Note, 2008]
On a boat! Rocks Off Cruise
In a nice moment of semi-synchronicity last night, I sat back after a busy busy long weekend to chill and enjoy Standing in the Shadows of Motown (a great film worthy of its own post). I left the film with [...]

Red Hot Chili Peppers: Jungleman, Nevermind, The Brother’s CupFrom: Freaky Styley [EMI, 1985]
I’d like to try something kinda new here on Earfuzz: spotlight the work of a major-label, multi-platinum, globe-trotting, model/actress-dating, Billboard Chart-topping, cash cow juggernaut of an artist – Red Hot Chili Peppers. I think most anyone (fans & haters alike) would agree that [...]
Some real nice music in the Earfuzz currents as of late. Kudos everyone. Great stuff!
My last post celebrated the joys of discovering early 90’s Jungle, Drum and Bass, and Breakbeat. Well, months later I’m still deep in the midst of absorbing this music. And, I’ve started picking up records. Man oh man, I’m spending way [...]
