if you know him you are probably extremely sick of this but roger bong is the best name
been hearing a lot lately about the massive amounts of $$ dudes are starting to drop on hawaiian records, i think it's obviously always been a 'thing' but w/in record collecting circles it's been getting a lot of attention lately

Heh, that's his given name. Yeah, Roger's the best digger of this genre that I know, and this is all he's trying o play... J Rocc was out here in the islands for the a few weeks back and I heard he spent a grip at the Hungry Ear record shop in Kailua. I didn't know it was so hype tho.

idk i've only heard about it from a few people i guess, but there was a little movie featurette on xlr8r that someone shared with me (featuring mr bong) recently, and i guess the psychemagik guys are getting into it (the steve and teresa track "catching a wave" is on the magik sunrise mix/comp)

Oh, very cool! Thanks for linking that video. That's my friend / Roger's GF Leimomi digging at the thrift shop. :)
Psychemagik is pretty rad I always like their stuff.

Trying to think where I know that Mackey Feary Band track from.

the thought of "Lihue" getting a psychemagik edit makes me nervous and excited

"The Real Thang", released by Tony Joe White on Casablanca Records in 1980. Was torn between posting this here or on the balearic beach thread, but I feel like it's got much more of a beardo edge - would be surprised if there haven't already been edits. It's a pretty great album, he manages to fuse his swampy country persona with Disco sheen in a very organic way.
