21/03/07

is what one calls a Vinyl Junkie. A haunted freak to the psychedelic beat, the discovery channel of forgotten platters that somehow never really mattered. His furious DJ sets and mixes definitely set a world on fire. Hipster labels like Twisted Nerve, 13 Amp, Poptones and Whatever We Want Records all grabbed for a piece of the Cherrystones cake. And releases either his mixes or his own, totally freaked out otherworldly prodcutions under the moniker Godsy.

Which song do you listen to when…
you wake up?
The Wipers - Over The Edge. Classic punk rock with a sentiment stronger and more rewarding than an espresso.

you drive a car late at night?
German Oak - German Oak (LP). Perfect late night backdrop especially through the countryside.

you make love?
Big Black - Songs About Fucking. The title says it all.

you prepare a candle light dinner?
Embryo - Dreaming Girls. One of my favourite krautrock bands – good textures and themes that allow “focus”. Good food takes concentration!

you sit in the subway?
Writing On The Wall - Power Of The Picts. Good sixties psych from Scotland. Maintaining the underground theme!

you sit in a plane?
Mostly the Blues channel or any mediocre TV that is showing. I like channel skipping in this situation!

you have to spend a night in a spooky hotel?
Popol Vuh - In Den Gärten Pharaohs. Beautiful and haunting.

you go to a club?
EPMD - Scratch Bring It Back (Part 2 Mic Doc). Classic hip hop that still cuts the mustard.

you are in a depressive mood?
Jackson C Frank. Anything by him helps!

you feel bitchy?
Alternative TV- Action Time Vision or Another Coke. Great punk with intelligent sarcasm. Or: Shellac - Prayer To God.

you prepare for a real important date?
Glenn Branca - Lesson No 1. Good pace-thoughtful reflective and inspiring positive music!

you relax on a beach?
Relatively Clean Rivers - Hello Sunshine. It’s a hot song with a cool feeling.

you want to disturb your neighbors?
Sunn O))) - White Two. Full volume! It works.

you jump out of a plane with a parachute?
Aphrodite’s Child - Air. Just working to your theme.

you take a bubble bath?
Can - Future Days. Perfect Relaxtion.
