Err.... Fish?

Couple of great tracks here, in honour of a tasty bit of monkfish I had last night.



The first is by Jahcoozi. I know nothing about them, and i've forgotten how to speak German... fortunately Google is here to help!



Jahcoozi/Fish abstract one electronic Beats from the frontiers of Ragga, BlipHop and Electronica with a feeling for Groove and the unexpected mark the TRACKS of the citizens of Berlin volume Jahcoozi. The ironical English texts of the female MCs Sasha Perera (original from London) lend the electronic Beatkonstrukten of Robot cook (Berlin) an unusual and charmingly diagonal Touch. They are supported live by Oren Gerlitz (Tel Aviv) at the bass. The compositions and productions develop in the classical volume group. All three Jahcoozis gained, work experience with various other music projects world-wide however since 2002 intensively on the common thing, which forms itself more and more to a strong Live act and imagines with "Fish" now the Vinylfreunden. Club fitness proves a Dance mixing of Natascha to that. Behind this beautiful name hide themselves equal three WMFler, which together-found themselves nearly coincidental in the WMF Natascha bar to a creative Workshop and since that time at TRACKS to tinker regular. That Highfish, Dominik Sprungala of center Karaoke and Fritz Zander would not have to do not also different one - to present, arises, makes light for example. A second Jahcoozi TRACK, Kaleidoscope, is as Remix of beige (aka Burnt Friedman, Nonplace), in order to along-present the experimental Frickelfreude of the Jahcoozis. All that knows and likes Jahcoozi. And still many more! Jahcoozi are represented with "wallpaper change" on the "Electric Pop" Compilation (new clay/tone) together with 2Raum dwelling, T.Raumschmiere, MaertiniBroes and other artists. A Remix of Jahcoozi appears simultaneous on the "Fiery Creatures EP" by panorama (Hamton Recordings). In addition "Kaleidoscope" will be on the "Bread & butter" Compilation.
I like the idea of a 'Charmingly Diagonal Touch'!

This track appeared on the 'Rebel Futurism' mix CD last year. The full version here is taken from one of the sampler 12"s that accompanied that album. It's on the Crosstown Rebels label, which replaced the legendary City Rockers when that folded.

It starts off pleasantly enough, but soon the growling bass starts... then the 'French Kiss'-esque piano stabs begin.. and it turns into a real hands-in-the-air crowd pleaser. Yeah, this is right up my autobahn. I love it.


JAHCOOZI - FISH (TEAM NATASCHA MIX)

There is a new installment of 'Rebel Futurism' out now (a bargain £7.99 from Amazon). I've not heard it yet however if it's anywhere near the quality of the previous three it's an essential purchase.


Since we're on a fish theme, I have just the thing for desert.

I doubt you need to hear anything about Mr Scruff. Tea lover. Doodler. Superstar DJ. He likes fish as well.
