Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from June 18, 2020 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

not sure of it's part of that collection specifically, but the Channel also just added a bunch of jazz age shorts that are incredible – the Louis Armstrong short "A Rhapsody in Black and Blue" is incredibly funky, highly recommended; predicts aspects of Funkadelic and Sun Ra in a very interesting way and features an outrageous performance from Armstrong

weird. the track was identical otherwise. it's on an unmarked cd the person made it for me said was from a cassette and when the web came i tracked it down to the album "Lee "scratch" Perry meets Bullwackie".
...no voices.

Thousands of Jamaican records had the instrumental track on the flip...the "version"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:37pm
coelacanth∅:

of course. just the rest of the track listing matched that album.

@C: that seems pretty likely, dub often varies from release to release, they could have either added or subtracted those voices for a subsequent issuance
