when i said i hadn’t posted any folk music lately, what i meant was that i haven’t posted any DANCEHALL lately. this riddim is so crazy, reminds me of 80s movie synths or boards of canada or something. i don’t know how to describe except as really palatable. think about that…..

vinyl shotz - timba riddim (zshare .zip)

there’s the whole thing. it has bunji garlin and busy signal, and two instrumental versions. here, i’ll put my favorite one up so you can sample before you download it all. i guess this is a remix of fire now from the murda riddim? i get the impression that all these are technically remixes over the timba jawn

bunji garlin - fire now (zshare)

first i thought this was by vinyl shakerz, the guys who did ‘one night in bangkok’ and i was like wtffffff, but it is by vinyl SHOTZ, who are still from western europe. his/their myspace has some interesting remix videos (watch dem roll, voicemail’s crazy)

the cansecos’ new album came out a little bit ago. here’s what i said about them one time before:

the cansecos (myspace) have been one of my favorite indie-type groups since their self-titled in 2003. theyre on the pretty good upper class recs w/ russian futurists & cadence weapon — both worth checking — but it always seemed like their distribution was nonexistent. theyve got a fairly unique sound, like a cross between magnetic fields & postal service, in a good way. a lot of synths and mildly glitchy beats, the guy talk sings more than anything… i dont want to post any of their old stuff but its def worth a look (itunes store)

anyways you should have bought their new album by now (itunes) but if you didn’t, here is my favorite song from it

the cansecos - raised by wolves (zshare)

and here is a remix of it that isn’t as good as the original, but a remix nonetheless
