\"yearone_front1\"<\/p>\n

To celebrate the first anniversay of the Fat Planet radio show on FBi 94.5FM, I pulled together some of my favourite free downloads from the 2003-2004 period and compiled them into this mixtape.<\/p>\n

Underneath the track listing, you’ll also find a short breakout quote taken from the Fat Planet blog during that time. Interesting to find some early references to baile funk in there (via MC Vanesinha<\/strong>), which I noted as “music from garages” – obviously not quite having anything but a notional understanding of favela culture at this point. I still regularly return to the closer – the Sixtoo<\/strong> track featuring Damo Suzuki <\/strong>– a sensational piece of both respectful and revisionist krautrock from hip hop boy Vaughn Squires, now member of the Megasoid<\/strong> team.<\/p>\n

Burn a little silver disc and file it under ‘f’ for fat.<\/p>\n

Tracklisting:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. NO NAME NO FAME buena vista fight club [CROATIA]
\n“some great downbeat latin breaks straight out of croatia … no.1 for ten weeks in croatian radio 101’s independent chart”<\/p>\n

2. WAYNE & WAX a it dat (dj c it dat) [US: MASSACHUSETS]
\n“full of humour … a smart north american take on the contemporary jamaican sound”<\/p>\n

3. CUT COPY going nowhere zipped [AUSTRALIA]
\n“straight-up new wave, direct from the 80s, with a side-swerve to take in some daft punk funk”<\/p>\n

4. THINK TWICE under the bombs [FRANCE]
\n“awesome semi-spoken word vs punk funk track”<\/p>\n

5. NEUTRINO syupaman [JAPAN]
\n“great downtempo hip-hop … released on mush – fast becoming the leader in such sounds”<\/p>\n

6. THE ASTROGLIDES the man with the golden reverb [ISRAEL]
\n“damn fine surf tunes that hark back to a golden era”<\/p>\n

7. MC VANESINHA dance de peteca [BRAZIL]
\n“brazilian hip-hop … sourced from independent sellers – it’s music from garages, apparently”<\/p>\n

8. 2\/5 BZ bug\u00fcn eve i\u00e7ine kus geldi zipped [TURKEY]<\/p>\n

9. LARS HORNTVETH ticks [NORWAY]
\n“defies regular description, although if my life depended on it i’d go for someone between free jazz, downbeat breaks and electronica”<\/p>\n

10. ERIK LEVANDER bermond (bauri remix) [SWEDEN]
\n“echoing acoustic loops and a hint of far-off vocals are underlaid with a soft, crunchy rhythm track that is barely there”<\/p>\n

11. JUANA MOLINA quien? [ARGENTINA]
\n“a more balanced approach between vocal, acoustic guitar and electro atmospherics … reconcile the music with the fact that juana is also a comedian with one of the most popular TV comedy’s show in the spanish speaking world”<\/p>\n

12. OUMOU SANGARE nebife [MALI]
\n“without doubt my favourite african artist, simply because you’re unlikely to find a voice quite like this”<\/p>\n

\n“always a freakin’ relief to find something that stands heads and shoulders above everything else … a stunning piece of folktronica”<\/p>\n

14. COCOROSIE by your side [US: NEW YORK]
\n“traces of southern blues, jazz, downbeat hip-hop – and all the more remarkable considering this was recorded in paris”<\/p>\n

15. JAB MICA OCH EL caca biohjelm [DENMARK]
\n“cut-up alt.folk string together with some distorted breaks – for lovers of four tet, look no further”<\/p>\n

16. SIXTOO feat DAMO SUZUKI storm clouds & silver linings [CANADA]
\n“features damo suzuki on vocals, a founding member of krautrock legends, can … could have easily been taken from an early can recording session”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
