Keyrings from Technics & Berlesque Design

Written By 3 - July 29 2010

We recently received two batches of keyrings in from Technics & Berlesque Design, pictures below with links to the website.

Technics Headshell Bottle Opener Available Here

Alphabet Keyrings Available Here

alphabetkeychainbr1inch_large_image8_4840

Mike Davis' alphabet poster took off and caught the eye of the folks over at Kidrobot. They produced an entire alphabet of vinyl keychain which double as zipper pulls. All 26 letters are represented here as well as color variations of 4 letters.

These are sold in blind box, meaning we don't know which letter we are sending you and you won't know which letter you have until you open the box!

Bulljun - Bulljun & Funky Presidents 2029 2LP (FLAT ROCK)

Written By 3 - July 29 2010

Available here on 2LP

Bulljun is a member of Japanese hip hop / breakbeats creator team, A.Y.B. Force. His 17-track 2nd album was created entirely on the MPC 2000 XL with plenty of his impressions of the connection between the Japanese hip hop scene and NYC, and the respect they show to 90s US hip hop.

We all know that the Japanese are some of the top record nerds in the world, so expect 17 instrumentals of mellow, galactic beats, devoted to 90s hip hop / breakbeats, and composed by using only sampling sources from his personal record collection.

Track Listing:

01 Bulljun World War Intro clip
02 Bulljun 2nd Ep Outro clip
03 Bulljun New President 2009 clip
04 Bulljun Cold Stone Jazz clip
05 Bulljun Soul Bound clip

Various - The World Ends 2xCD/2 x 3LP (SOUNDWAY)

Written By 3 - July 28 2010

Available here - 2xCD / 3LP (Part 1) / 3LP (Part 2)

The World Ends is the latest title from Soundway Records showcasing a wave of guitar driven and psychedelic groups that sprung up in Nigeria during the early 1970s. Featuring 32 electrifying and funk laden grooves, this is the sound of a generation attempting to pick up the pieces after the devastation of the Nigerian civil war.

Spread over 2 CDs and 2 triple gatefold LPs, this bumper collection is brimming with youthful exuberance, fuzzed out guitar and cosmic organ vibes and owes much to the psychedelic sounds of Jim Morrison, Santana, Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane and James Brown.

As the summer of love was blossoming in London and San Francisco, Nigeria was imploding into civil war. Also known as the Biafran war of 1967, it was a grisly conflict taking over three million lives yet at the same time as the country was being pulled apart there was a new world beginning. The tracks featured represent a forgotten chapter in Nigeria’s musical history when the youth threw their varied morsels into the pot from hard rock to psychedelic soul when guitars were cherished instruments, symbolic of a new movement, when highlife and Afrobeat played second fiddle to ‘the beat’.
