Dennis Coffey – All Your Goodies Are Gone (Feat. Mayer Hawthorne) (Shigeto Remix)

denniscoffey

Guitarist Dennis Coffey is a legend. As a member of the Funk Brothers, Coffey played on countless classic tracks for the Motown label, The Temptations’ “Cloud Nine”, The Supremes “Someday Will Be Together” (my personal favorite Supremes’ tune), Edwin Starr’s “War”, etc. That is a serious resume. In April, the guitarist, as part of a self-titled LP, released “All Your Goodies Are Gone”, a collaboration with fellow Detroit-native (via Ann Arbor) and b3sci fav Mayer Hawthorne. Here on this remix of “Goodies” by another b3sci fav Shigeto, the track gets a future soul run, complete with spacey synth and vibed out rhythms; a remix we wouldn’t be surprised to hear turn up on an upcoming Gilles Peterson show. Stream the track below.

RAVE’S FAVES: Trent Reznor with Karen O – The Immigrant Song

girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-2011-movie-posters-1

This is in the trailer for the film “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo”. What a cool idea for them to cover this Zeppelin song, and what makes it even better is that it sounds just how you’d expect it to. Enjoy, and at 1:39 you just might have the time to put it on twice. Contributed by Bruce Rave

Big Troubles – Misery

bigtroubles2

Big Troubles, a New Jersey-based four piece, got jams. Big, distortion-heavy, AWESOME jams. “Misery” sets the pace with some great kick-snare four-on-the-floor, cool delay-pedaled guitar leads, and a nice crunchy 90s-esque sound.

Theophilus London – No Particular One / Wine & Chocolates

london2

Not one, but TWO Theo London jams for your Thursday. “No Particular One” is a cover of the great Jesse Boone soul track Mr. London recently cut with the Budos Band. Fresh. “Wine & Chocolates”, excerpted from the “Lover’s Holiday” EP from earlier this year, sounds as much Theo London 2011 as it does late 90’s alternaelectro. We’re hearing Soul Coughing! Timez Are Weird These Dayz is due July 19

Golden Glow – On My Own

goldenglow

More Manc post-punk flavor in yr ear. This time its British-Trinidadian/Mauritian Pierre Hall a/k/a Pierre Hall. “On My Own” is a pretty basic, minimal song; a simple drum beat glides underneath Hall’s spare melody and guitar jabs.

KING – Hey

king

Wow. Just floored by this. “Hey” by LA trio is beautiful, gorgeous, breathtaking, all that. An amazing track. ATCQ may have popularized the phrase “Electric Relaxation” and “Hey” is no doubt the definition of. Again, just wow.
