rolling Andy Votel and related thread (funky rock/prog/folk/soundtrack talk is ok)

I'm quite liking the "Well Hung" comp. Great funk and prog mix.

holy shit, apparently the dude behind the Yamasuki singers is Thomas Bangalter's dad?!

what is this "vampire thing"?

i like everything i've heard on this label. though i was a little put out having to pay over $20 for the galwad y mynydd thing (that's like a dollar+ a minute). but i'm cheap.

VAMPIRES OF DARTMOOR -
DRACULA'S MUSIC CABINET

Finders Keepers presents this uber-rare soundtrack to a film that never existed, performed by an imaginery pop-group. Incredible Polanski-inspired German hip-hop psychsploitation beats from 1969....

cover is ridiculous

Gawd, I am SO over those...

the new b-music comp (drive in, turn on, freak out) came in the mail the other day- basically same deal as first one--multi-contributor dj tag team. it's also really good, has the requisite handful of duplicate tracks that i recognized from somewhere else in the votel/Fkeepers stable.

the liner notes also tipped off two upcoming releases; one a pakistani film comp, other one from spain, not really any detail past that.

So what happened to that Vampires of Dartmoore thing? It looked interesting, but I can't find any info about it at all.

it's pretty great. my friend almost dropped $250 on it before it got reissued

One of the best tracks on the Finders Keepers compilation was by them.

it's pretty great. my friend almost dropped $250 on it before it got reissued

Reissued by whom, though? Can't find it anywhere, and there's no mention of it on Finders Keepers, Delay 68, B-Music et al's websites...

Telephone thing, check yr mail...

Thanks! Downloading now...

http://www.finderskeepersrecords.com/home.html

it's right on their homepage. coming soon, though

Finders Keepers will put out a Massiera comp soon - CAN'T WAIT.

...and the Vampires of Dartmoore will reissued in early 2009 too. Its going to be a good year.

so stoked on the Massiera comp. heard a few clips this morn of the single, but it's earlier sounding stuff http://www.finderskeepersrecords.com/discog_fkrhny.html still pretty sweet.

so that's like three massiera comps in three months. i guess that's cool, i hope there isn't a lot of crossover in their choice of songs.

"L'ivresse des profondeurs" is plain great.

I still have to investigate the other comps - now, if only someone put out again that Horrific Child lp...

what are the other comps?

this one

The Jean Pierre Massiera Thread : French Producer Extrardoinaire

need more discussion on this guy. so much stuff out there, the mind boggles

Picked up the "Anagram Jam" record, which is Andy Votel (and also Dom Thomas) doing re-edits sourced from the typical B-music-esque genre material. Pretty great summer jam possibilities and the reedit angle is nice for extending some of the juicier bits that normally blast by on the Votel mixes.

Downloading a digital copy of the "Science Fiction Dance Corporation" album right now, which is apparently the same guys as the "Vampires of Dartmoore," though even the Finders Keepers site is ruthlessly short on actual information

Shark Ridden Waters

SHARK ATTACK!

Help! A song in the form of a large silver shark was discovered yesterday off the west coast of Wales.

RECORDING

A mysterious recording was made of it as it swam aggressively past a miked up dilapidated wooden fishing trawler, like some old boat off Jaws.

ANDY VOTEL

The recording, that you can listen to up there in bottled form, goes under the name Shark Ridden Waters and is believed to bear all the sonic hallmarks of producer Andy Votel."

this sounds so ridiculously awesome

THAI? DAI! THE HEAVIER SIDE OF THE LUKTHUNG UNDERGROUND

Whoa they did the Jean Rollin soundtrack. Dammit! Want that poster.

i've never seen any of his movies, but apparently he just died last month

They're pretty awesome if you like weird shit. The early ones, anyway, lots of inexplicable "vampire" things happening, without any real reference to trad-vampire things. "Le Vampire Nue" is a good one to start with.

I didnt know Rollin died.
My favourite of his movies is probably Lèvres de sang/ Lips of Blood.
I have fond memories also of his first one (Le Viol du Vampire), if you like catatonic acting, beautiful cinematography and unintentionally comic '68 French pseudo-philosophy!

The first song on that Thai Dai comp is a mad cover of Sabbath's Iron Man... Also, Dom Thomas's latest Brutal Music mix 'Synthetic Soul' is reliably excellent.

can anyone ID the amazing opening track on this recent-ish Cherrystones psych, prog & garage mix?

(sorry if this has been covered elsewhere - there are a lot of Votel threads)

Votel's hip hop project is really enjoyable: https://hypocriticalbeatdown.bandcamp.com/album/violators-of-the-english-language

thought this bump was going to be about the return of djhistory.com with bill interviewing andy !

https://djhistory.com/read/andy-votel-digs-for-wrongness/

and yeah, have heard a few bits off the HB label, not this album yet though.
tis fun stuff, especially when he drops in samples/loops from the finders keepers catalogue.
