Andrea Parker's contribution to Studio !K7's long-running mix series DJ-Kicks is, expectedly, heavy on electro past and present. The set's timing was market-driven; electro's periodic "revivals" are almost as predictable as the scores of second-rate tracks full of preset 808 beats and overzealous vocoders that inevitably follow. !K7 at least had the sense to call in someone with the knowledge and skill to put an interesting set together; Parker's DJ-Kicks also does double duty as a peek behind the curtain of her own fascinating, still-developing sound. The mixing is adequate, but Parker's set is ultimately about track selection, and most of what's on offer here is excellent, including classics like 69's "Desire," Model 500's "Night Drive," Man Parrish's "Hip Hop Be Bop (Don't Stop)," and C.O.D.'s "In the Bottle," as well as relative newcomers like Drexciya, Dopplereffekt, Voigt Kampff, and Gescom (aka Autechre). ~ Sean Cooper
Andrea Parker's rendition of DJ-Kicks is a deep grooving mixed phantasm melting hip hop, old school electro, breakbeats, & classic tracks into an amazing trip through the history of electro. She opens the CD with her remix of Depeche Mode's 'It's No Good' & features expertly mixed, stellar tracks by electronic music pioneers Renegade Soundwave, Carl Craig, Dr. Octagon, Model 500 (Juan Atkins), Afrika Bambaata, Drexciya, & Andrea Parker herself. Other track highlights include Man Parrish's 'Hip Hop Be Bop' & COD's 'In The Bottle'. Besides the embedded musical brilliance, Andrea Parker 'DJ-Kicks' is an essential record for every electronic music aficionado's collection.

DJ Kicks songs

Invigorating head music done Rastafarian style by Cymande. "Zion I" is a spiritual chant put to music, setting the mood for Cymande. A laid-back "One More" lulls you into subliminal meditation before "Getting It Back" jolts you into some scintillating Jamaican funk-fusion. There's a message in many of Cymande's cuts, with "Listen," and "Bra" (a recognition of the women's lib movement), the most inspiring. Both are sung with passion, and are skillfully executed; the former is slow and painstaking in its message, while "Bra" slaps you upside the head with a stirring sax solo and bass-fueled vamp. An air of supreme coolness permeates Cymande, unusual for a first effort written by members of the band. Cymande sound like they have done this before; nowhere is this more evident than on the beautiful "Dove," a gorgeous concoction of lead guitar, tambourines, haunting backing vocals, and percussion, with the horns used as sparingly as table-seasoning on a gourmet dish.

| | Renaissance CD (1969)
DJ Kicks album
$22.85 
The original group's debut album was a then-groundbreaking meld of progressive rock with classical and jazz influences. The album is a little clunky by today's standards, and far druggier than the later group in its ambience (cofounders Keith Relf and Jim McCarty were the heavily psychedelic half of the final lineup of the Yardbirds, which made ...

| | Scratch Perverts Fabric Live 22 CD (2005)
DJ Kicks music CDs
$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 a smart party and you'd have to go bootleg to acquire anything more mashed up and exciting. ~ David Jeffries

DJ Kicks songs
$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 ...

DJ Kicks CD music
$16.45
"Dennis McGregor is a clever, captivating, crackerjacksongwriter with a keen wit and a keen ear. Hissweetly sardonic, ruefully wry observations on thehuman condition make me laugh, ache, think, and singalong. "Arden EatonMonterey Bay DJ and Television ProducerKPIG, Arden's Garden-Dennis McGregor's "Front Porch To The Moon""Dennis McGregor walked into the KPIG studios and won the entire crew over with his first song. We love him!" -Sleepy John, KPIG"A few years ago, Dennis picked up the guitarand songs started pouring out of him - songs thatrevealed a large and deep world churning insidethe calm exterior of this tall, quiet man. The songsrange from heartfelt and poignant to... well, not justoff the wall, but off a wacky wall that may exist inanother universe. If you can appreciate depth of thought,sly humor and a quiet, modest, down to earth genius, come enjoy a unique and rare American treasure." - Matt Kramer, Frogsong From pretty island rhythms, to raw blues, to pure country, to simple stories of small town life that no one has ever told before (“It ain't easy bein' married to a cop…”, e.g.), there's no way to compare Dennis McGregor to anyone else. You could try. You could call him a cross between Greg Brown and Jimmy Buffet, for instance, but that wouldn't get at the heart of the kinds of songs he writes, the way he sings them, or what he's really about. What is he about? It seems to me that what sets McGregor apart is his penchant for keeping a detailed, ...
