It's the Supersound

Back again with another glistening Waves for all you beach sluts and wave whores alike.  The weather outside is sun-kissed and teetering around 75, pretty good for early spring in Socal.  So grab your ghetto blaster, head down to ze beach, and play this 14-song flowing ‘Tropicool’ theme as you get baked with the sand beneath your toes. This installment actually doubles as baby making music, so if the test comes up positive, don’t say i didn’t warn you!

“The waves ≠ raves consists of hand-picked gems that inspire us, tickling and tempting our creative juices. Some are old, some are new, but it is what we are listening to now. They are groovey, flowing, and sun-kissed just like that perfect wave. They are uplifting and guaranteed to put a smile on your face. They sound the best with a babe in one hand, a cold brewski in the other, and the sand beneath your feet. Stay Dreamy.”

And as always, brought to you with our friends over at The Ampal Creative

All files Zipped —> HERE <—- Kick off your shoes and simmer in the sunlight.  And always remember, keep it casual.

There are very few artists that I will simply say YES to no matter what time or what consequence. One is the grand funkatronics of George Clinton; the other, the velvet lined licks of Lady Miss Kier, most notably remembered for her work with Deee-Lite. So to find out that the two are somewhat, kind of, although not really paired together, well we just nod and start writing.

Ray Mang, the alias of UK master-producer, Raj Gupta, stole the basic formula for Clinton’s track, Bulletproof. And by formula, I mean he’s reworked and refreshed it for modern ears, by lacing a wet and wobbly bass and synth line with the distinct tongue of Kier.

What more can I say about this? Not a lot, because I’m 100% preoccupied with dancing around like a damn fool to this.

Get in on the fun below.
