(1 Customer Review)
Part of the German label Studio !K7's DJ series, Stacey Pullen's DJ-Kicks gives one a sense of the kind of mix the second-generation Detroit techno artist might create at one of his many international club appearances. As with other DJs in the series, Pullen took a live studio mix and cleaned it up with some digital editing. The resulting sound is in the compact yet warm-sounding techno vein Pullen favors (a style formed in response to the colder, primitive-sounding mixes of techno originator and mentor Derrick May). Pullen expertly blends original material (under aliases like Kosmic Messenger and Silent Phase) with a variety of contemporary cuts by the likes of Cristian Vogel, Acid Jesus, and Kenny Larkin and in the process produces a seamless mélange of acid house, garage, disco, and, of course, techno. Pullen ignores the vogue for tribal, drum'n'bass, and trance sounds, instead creating a focused and innovative marriage of Giorgio Moroder's expansive disco sound and Kraftwerk's machine music. One of just a few releases from Pullen in the last decade and certainly essential for techno fans. ~ Stephen Cook

| | Scratch Perverts Fabriclive.22 CD (2005)
DJ-Kicks album
$14.49 Fierce scratching, U.K. and U.S. hip-hop, and electro-flavored beats all figure into the turntable crew Scratch Perverts' entry into the Fabriclive series. Arguably the most fun disc in the risk-taking series, Fabriclive.22 goes from brash U.K. hip-hopper Skinnyman to introspective rockers Radiohead and ends with five tracks of fierce jungle. It's no small feat that the flow is seamless, but these crafty perverts go that extra mile and drop some of their own remixes into the whole shebang. The Ian Brown number is an official Scratch Perverts excursion, but many of the other tracks get messed up and funked up enough they could be labeled as such. Cuts like the Roots at their most reggae and Dead Prez at their most electro span genres themselves, but everything is inspired rather than clever and concise instead of cluttered. This isn't history in the making, but it's ...
| | Deep Dish George Is On CDs (2005)
DJ-Kicks CD music
$13.69 Initial release includes an enhanced bonus disc. Enhancements include videos for "Say Hello" and "Flashdance."
Seven years after their last album of original productions and eight long months after the leadoff single "Flashdance" stormed the clubs, Deep Dish returned with George Is On. A slicker, more extroverted effort than their 1998 effort Junk Science, George Is On finds that album's main vocalist/lyricist Richard Morel back with the duo. The guitar-heavy "Sacramento" is one of the best cuts yet to come from the relationship, with the more laid-back and foggy "Everybody's Wearing My Head" running a close second. Besides Morel, plenty of hypnotic, nocturnal instrumentals recall the duo's well-respected debut, but the flippant, cheeky "Flashdance" and a cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" with Stevie Nicks guesting explore the worlds of anthems and ...
| | Carter The Unstoppable Sex Mach Straw Donkey: The Singles CD (1995)
DJ-Kicks music CDs
$11.65 Although it's a solid recapitulation, in order, of all of the singles Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine released through 1995's Worry Bomb, there's something kind of unsatisfying about Straw Donkey. Part of it is that the duo's singles were not necessarily its best songs (although the group's ...
| | Mills Brothers Chronological Vol. 4: 1935-37 CD (2001)
DJ-Kicks songs
$22.09 Recorded between 1935 and 1937. Includes liner notes by Geoff Milne.
It is ironic that the Mills Brothers are chiefly remembered for being a middle-of-the-road pop vocal group that sang conservative music in the 1940's and 50's for they started out as an innovative jazz band. Up until the early 1940's the Mills Brothers brilliantly imitated instruments, sounding like a full ensemble even though the only "real" instrument they used was an acoustic guitar. Vol. 4 out of the six very valuable CD's compiled by the English JSP label finds the Brothers dealing with a very traumatic experience, the death of John Mills, Jr. (in early 1936) ...

DJ-Kicks CD music
$15.95 The Creaking Tree String Quartet is the product of four adept and accomplished musicians, dedicated to performing unique and exciting material that raises the bar for instrumental acoustic music. This ensemble, made up of violinist John Showman, guitarist Brad Keller, mandolinist Andrew Collins and bassist Brian Kobayakawa, has a distinct sound that lives in the cracks between idioms. It's acoustic roots music that combines intricate phrasing with imaginative rhythms. Too outside for bluegrass, but too driving for jazz; too free to be chamber music, but ...
