The Black Booby re-edit of the Young Americans track ‘Right’ is well-chosen and nice, as is the epic Funkadelic re-edit by Moodymann and Psychemagik’s re-edit of Stanley Shaw ‘Groovy Beat’. These tracks are in good company with lots of other re-edits by some of my favorite artists and labels. Winner!

The first hour is a mostly-rock show, with a Stones cover by Pagans, then soon-after ‘Ode To a Stone’ from the Soul Jazz comp ‘Inner City Beat! Detective Themes, Spy Music And Imaginary Thrillers’. O’ Level and Jook keep us on track before we switch genres with the excellent Quad Throw Salchow track. The second hour is an electronic show. The second hour starts off with African artist but then moves to Quilla’s magical track in the Ricardo Villalobos remix form. I especially like the Solid State track near the end.

This originally aired as a pledge show on WZBC. It is a rock show in the beginning, a hip hop show at the end. The show starts with 1980 Don Christensen (drummer in The Contortions) as ImpLOG, then 1967 David Bowie covering Velvet Underground. James Williamson covers a 1977 Stooges gem with Austin TX artist Carolyn Wonderland, then two NYC bands come next. In the second hour, 7″s from the Originals label are sandwiched by an Athens Of The North 7″ at the start and the 1983 Bileo track at the end.

1976 disco produced by Tom Moulton by the band Touch starts off this show on good feet. That feeling is continued in the next two tracks, when Floating Points take us in a new broken beat direction. We return on a disco/re-edit track with Riccio, before Ruf Dug gets a bit abstract and Pat Les Stache breaks out the wah-wah petal. The African sound flirted with by Pat Les Stache blooms in Auntie Flo (and several others in part 2), then we get lost deep in the jungle with Jose Manuel in the most pleasing way he does. Listen to part 2 and make your own summary – be assured it fits in exactly with the feel of part 1.
