Wassapnin' party people and yes this is another edition of the goodvibez and it's with great pleasure that I bring you my latest mix... Jazz Hop. I've been cooking up that compilation for a while and I must say that I'm happy with the results. There ate some very known names, some new comers but the mix is sucka free as always.

It was a difficult task as usual to choose my top 3, I put a lot of effort to choose the right tracks, make sure they go well together. I'll go with Check The Rhime '09 by QuEST & Nero two upcoming rhymers but damn they represent a cover of one of my all time favorite tracks. Push On by Surreal & The Sound Providers is the perfect definition of jazz hop, a nice bass line and Surreal just flowin' on the mic. Now last but not the least is a Canadian rapper by the name of Shad. I know right now Drake is blowin' up but he doesn't come close to Shad's lyrical ability. The track telephone will demonstrate what I'm talking about and his album TSOL is not to be slept on. Honorable mention to Gift of Gab with Flashback, Pat D & Lady Paradox with I Wanna Feel Days straight from the UK and a young producer by the name of Suff Daddy with Join the Club.

Much love to the goodvibez followers, keep in mind that I'm doing this strictly for the love of music and it's with great pleasure that I share this with all ya'll. The artwork is made by me check out more of my artwork here.

Max Tanonne's Mos Dub

I know, I know what you are all going to say, Mos Dub's been out for weeks if not a few months but i've posted Jaydiohead as well as Double Check Your Head (Beastie Boys, Check Your Head Blends) so I wasn't about to skip Mos Dub.

Picture this Mos Def's Black on Both Sides classic oh yeah i said it CLASSIC, that album made me believe once again in hip hop. SO merge Mos Def's lyrical genius to more classic material (reggae, dub samples) and tadaaaa ! Mos Dub but what makes this a bullseye is that the music flow naturally, like this was meat to be same as peanut butter and jelly.

I don't know if it's a trend but I've heard a few mash ups and most of them we're ...Ok at best but this my loyal readers, this takes the cake. So sit back, chillax indulge into your sin of choice (greenery or a nice beverage) and just let Max bring you on the Dub side.

ArtOfficial:The Payback

ArtOfficial/The Payback 2010 -Free Download

So here I am blogwalking and I was checking out Real hiphop's post and something caught my attention, now I remember seeing that post on a few other sites/blogs and i decided to give it a try. ArtOfficial from Miami and the free download: The Payback, hip hop band a la The Roots . It's a 12-track mixtape /street album consists of 2 emcees Newsense and Logics rhyming over the live instrumental tracks by musicians: Danny Perez, Manny Patino, Ralf Valencia and Keith Cooper, the recreation of classic instrumentals such as rock legend Jimi Hendrix (“Voodoo”) to jazz trio Medeski, Martin & Wood (title track “The Payback”) and one of my all time classic Don't Sweat The Technique.

Bottom line is this is just some good music, it has that boom-bap 90's feel to it, the sax player is mighty nice and it's just a cool album to vibe to and they will be featured in my future mixes for sure.

thegoodvibez presents: DJ Cam


I decided to introduce a little something new called the goodvibez presents, basically I will put together a compilation of some of my favorite artists and the first one is DJ Cam.

Dj Cam born Laurent Daumail is a french DJ and his style is a hybrid of hip hop and jazz. Last time I counted he had something like 13 albums under his belt starting from 1994 with Underground Vibes. Now how did i discover DJ Cam ? As you may or may not know, while in college, I had the coolest job, I was working in a music store, it was small and we mostly sold commercial stuff but it's still up to date one of my favorite jobs. Anyhow at a certain point, huge mega-stores started opening and needless to say it took a few months to shut us down. Even if I hated the huge mega stores I walked in and well I was amazed of the choice they had, imports, rare albums and their hip hop section had way more choices then i was accustomed to, on top of that you could ask to listen to an album which was amazing.

So there I was in that mega-store and by pure fluke I found DJ cam's the beat condoctor in the acid jazz section, I couldn't believe it they even had an acid jazz section. so here i am in line with a pile of cd's to listen to and as soon it started, '' Cuz I love hip hop like Madonna loves dick'' and I was hooked. Now within these 13 albums some are a little darker and more on the edge of trip hop like the loa project vol. 2. Then you have his later music like soulshine that you can tell by the title is more soul oriented but lately i rediscovered him with DJ Cam's Quartet ( Diggin' and Rebirth of cool) both of these albums are insane for any music lover. I can resume the last 2 albums jazz quartet with dj and a whole lotta groove and that how I rediscovered Dj Cam. Of course when an artist has sucha vaste repertoire it's not easy to choose 15 songs, so I choose my favorites but also i wanted to display his taste for different moods and ambiances.

My first post of the new decade and here is another goodvibez mix that I'm sharing with you guys, after my indie phase (podcast 19 & 21) here is a nice chilled out electronica mix. I also added a little mp3 player to my blog, the songs are taken from the latest podcast you can use it to preview the songs before downloading. My favorite tracks we hard to choose as always but here we go and they are not in any particular order. The High Road by Broken Bells which consists of DJ Danger Mouse and James Mercer. I've been a fan of Danger Mouse since the days of the Grey Album and he never stopped to surprise me, he worked with Ceee-Lo (Gnarles Barkley) MF Doom to name a few and now he choose a new direction Broken Bell's sound is folky the album should come out later this year. Next is Stylo (Ft. Mos Def & Bobby Womack) by Gorillaz is one of my favorite groups and the characters are well crafted, I've been waiting for the album for a while now and word around the web is that it should come out later on this year as well. I was never able to label Gorillaz because the jump from one style to another but the music is always solid. Juicy Grub (feat Yousif) by Pat D & Lady Paradox is a hip hop group from the UK, it's some straight jazz-hop think british Digable Planets, I love how the Brits take hip hop and add their own twist. The rest of the songs are as great but I have a soft spot for these choices.

I noticed more followers on the blog, thanks a lot it's much appreciated please, comments and feedback are always welcomed. My next post will be thegoodvibez present, basically I will take an artist and compile some songs from all their albums and the first one will be DJ Cam and it will be posted real soon on this note I hope you will enjoy this mix that I've cooked for all y'all and keep in mind I do this blog because i just love sharing that great music with you.

Well this is my last post for 2009, I just blasted my blog today with 3 posts and my 2009 in music is ready to be downloaded. It was a very interesting year musically, the indie movement is at an all time high and I also notice that the electro sound is becoming very commercial however good music will always be good music no matter what trend is going on.

Let's jump to my favorite tracks since this is a favorite of 09 I'll pick 5 instead of my usual 3. The opening track The Music Scene by Blockhead is a nice instrumental groove on the jazz tip, I was happy when I found out the Blockhead had a new album out being a fan and all even though it's not his strongest release it's still a solid effort. Then I'll go with Quicksand (Boy 8-Bit Remix) by La Roux and this track's been playing in clubs for a while I cannot deny how effective this track is, it's catchy, dancy but most of all damn good. Now Fading In & Out (Kid Cudi x DJ Class Mash-Up) by The Kickdrums is the perfect example that hip hop still has a few words to say and these words are not about rims, guns and pimpslappin'. Humdrum Town by Theophilus London was my discovery of the year is just straight up fresh and new, mixing electro and hip hop and give it an indie feel and you got a kick ass concept, I just love that song. Sweet Sixteen by Think About Life, this Montreal based band is outstanding I cannot really describe the music it's an amalgamation of so many musical styles (Indie Rock mixed with Electro and Hip Hop) one thing I can say for sure is this track is amazing and I can't wait to hear more from them. Well I said 5 but my favorite album of 2009 is with no doubt Phoenix's Wolfgang Amadeus it's dancy, retro rock the melodies are sweet, the lyrics poetic it's just a gem of an album. as I was writing this post I realised the Lust for Life by Girls needs a shout as well and last but not least (I promise) I Karen O & The Kids with All Is Love from the Where The Wild Things Are Soundtrack (my 2nd favorite album of 2009).

Battalion Armour x Apple Juice Kid – Beautiful Warriors 2 (Louis Armstrong Remixed)

Earlier this year, The Apple juice Kid dropped Miles Davis remixed, it was a great project and I still listen to it regularly. I taught I was dreaming but nope another Apple Juice kid project (this DJ/Producer/Drummer) is going for the gold with Louis Armstrong Remixed. The concept is very simple take 11 old L. Armstrong songs and update them. Some have a hip hop feel, others are more electronic well in this day of mashing up styles who cares right ? The question remains is it any good ? You bet'cha it's damn good. Now I have to tell you that I still prefer Miles Remixed but the Armstrong Remixed is a breeze to listen to specially around the Holiday no one can hate on an updated version of Wonderful World.

This is something you can sit back, relax and enjoy with you girl, your family even you Grandfather is going to enjoy this one. This project just makes me wonder what is the Apple juice Kid is going to tackle afterwards ? how about some remixed Coltrane now that would be a trip.created by

Enjoy!

I wasn't gonna let my hip hop heads out to dry, I didn't post much in 09 ans I was more in the Indie and electro vibe but I wasn't about to forget my first love so here it is, something to get down to during the holidays.

I'm gonna jump to my favorite tracks right away, Auditiorium Ft. Slick Rick by Mos Def is a solid track with Madlib on production and I just remember having a good time on a certain Saturday afternoon with two of my friends and we we're just humming the melody on and on so this one goes out to Double U & T. Nebulosa by DJ Cam Quartet, Cam's been out there since the 90's putting out amazing instrumental (mostly) albums. He stirs hip hop and jazz and serves you up with a delectable musical cocktail. Diggin' was one of my favorite albums of 2009 i know you gonna dig this one. It's also interesting to see how hip hop is treated overseas, The Key by Speech Debelle is an example this Londoner just rips the mic on a jazzy beat and the potent English accent just gives it more personality.

I notices two more followers on the blog, thanks a lot it's much appreciated. I still got a few tricks up my sleeve before the year ends on this note I hope you will enjoy this hip hop mix that I've cooked for all y'all.

I’m gonna jump right to my favorite tracks, Walking On A Dream by Empire of the Sun now that track sounds like David Bowie and Prince I’m just loving that 80’s vibe. Then we have Population Control (Ruckazoid! Megawave Remix) by Exile, now I know it’s an Exile track but Ruckazoid! Is a DJ / Producer that you have to check out, that heavy synth sound is amazing last but not least we have Hidaway by Karen O And The Kids from the Where The Wild Things Are soundtrack. Karen O, the lead signer for the New York based band The Yeah Yeah Yeahs is a sweet indie track that I know you gonna dig.

Max Tannone's Double Check Your Head by the Beastie Boys

A few weeks ago maybe a month while browsing the net I found Max Tannone's Double Check Your Head by the Beastie Boys.

Now the Beasties need no introduction but Max Tannonne (Formely Minty Fresh Beats) is a producer that released Jaydiohead which was a Jay-Z and Radiohead mashup. Now with Double Check you Head, he took lyrics and instrumental tracks from the classic Beasties album Check Your Head and the results is well... Imagine mashing up all that classic material.

When you listen to these songs they feel current, considering Check Your Head came out in 1992. This 7 song remix album is out of this world, the remixes are tight the production sounds crisp most of all all of these song has an individual twist to them, little sounds that we're not part of the instrumental tracks and there's even a new song in there featuring Nas.

You must check it out and if you only heard post 90's Beastie's stuff it's nothing compared to their first 4 albums and my all time favorite is Paul's Boutique (if you want to know)

Ruckazoid!

Man oh man it's been almost two months since my last post, I was neck deep in my graphic design thing but as always I gotta come back to music. Food feeds the belly but music (amongst other things) feeds the soul.

As I was preparing my next mix (that will be posted within the next week or so) I discovered this dude called Ruckazoid!. This Los Angeles based DJ/Producer is just insane, I mean you gotta check it for your self. He stacks synthytisers (6 of them to be axact) and actually constructed his own turntables this guy is serious about his music. I would descibe his sounds as pure 80's breakbeat but he's no one trick cat, he produced from Lil' Wayne, Drake and he's coming out with a new album under the name Ruckazoid and the humans.

You know what I think the best thing is for you to check him out:



I'm sure we will hear from Ruckazoid! in the near future as for thegoodvibez I got two new original mixes that will be posted soon, I'm also going to redesign the blog.

Enjoy!

Rahi High

You never know when you are going to discover good music, in this case good music bumped into me.

Here I am rushing to class after having dinner with my sweetheart and I hear a melodic acoustic guitare and a rhasby voiced brother with mad soul. Of course I took a few minutes to just listen to this soul brother. He sang Rome and I also caught Bernadette. I actually purchased a cd and I'm listening to it on the regular but also I make other people listen to him to get that sound around. I don't understand that we can have 12 Chris Brown clones or what ever flavor of the month pop artist that's out there and this brother cannot get a record deal !

Anyways back to my story, I was on the corner of Ste-Catherine and Guy and I told Rahi the he needs to go on the plateau hopefully he listened but he was sucha nice guy, down to earth and I wish him all the succes and love in the world. Here are a few links if you wanna check him out:

Various Artists - Jazzy Kozmonaut (2009)

DJ Nophrills - Living Legends vol.1

In Montreal, one of the biggest cultural cities we are saturated with Festivals. The biggest one is The Montreal Jazz Festival and Stevie Wonder was closing the festival. Of course I missed it but I heard it was a good show and he did an homage to MJ who had just passed away at the time. I was touched by that so I pulled out my old Stevie Wonder cds (imagine nowadays CD's are considered old technology).

While in this Wonderful mood, I was browsing a few of my favorite blogs and I fell upon DJ Nophrills Living Legends vol.1 a compilation featuring Stevie Wonder, Prince, Al Green, Shakah Khan and a few more. I knew most of the songs (late 70's early 80's Funk, Soul and Pop) but it's just nice to have then all mixed together.

This mixtape is perfect for a in-house social gathering and it's a booty shaker guaranteed. Here it is for free, T, this one's for you and stop complaining that I post too much hip hop. I promise my next post is all about Fantasia 2009.

Man oh man, I know this is no Fantasia post, thing is Fantasia is not all that this year, I saw a few good movies but nothing special... yet I hope the best is yet to come. I will be doing a post strictly on Fantasia.

Ok I've been mad crazy lately, workin' for da man, freelancin' but nuff said peep this free downlaod:Slum Village - Remember The Classics (Free Mixtape Download). The late J Dilla's group this is well the title says it classic Slum Village material, nicely mixed by Dj Supa and hosted by Big Nat (who just won't shut up throughtout the whole mixtape).

If you can overlook Big Nat screaming his lungs off it's all good, as for me the screaming or hosting like it's presented, hosteing, SHUT UP and let the music play.

Would of been genius but Big Nat ruined it for me.

Fantasia 2009

Here it is, here it is, the art work for Fantasia 2009. If you don’t know, the Fantasia Film Festival is a unique experience, people go for the movies but come back for the atmosphere waitinging in line for a flick is an awesome experience. Fantasia’s been around since 1996 and it's by far the most exciting, innovative example of international genre cinema. The amphasis is on films that are rarely seen in North America. It ‘s very popular in Montreal and part of oh so many festivals that we have.

You like horror Fantasia will hook you up, you need a fix for bizarre documentaries Fantasia’s got’cha. Outlandish freakish gothic cinema is your thing, check out Fantasia. There's anime (Manga) old kung fu flicks even laugh out loud comedies.

Hopefully I will be able to attend this year, I’ve heard rumors that it was very difficult to finance fantasia in 2009 simply because Prime Minister Harper (a G W. Bush clone gone bad) decided to cut on cultural budgeting but they are back and hopefully this year is going to be as good if not better then the previous year. I will do my best to cover as much material possible.

It’s time for another original thegoodvibez mix. So for this chapter, I concocted a mix of Chilled out vibes that includes some jazzy hip-hop, some downtempo electronica, and some silky smooth soul. Sometimes I like to raise the roof however that mix will put babies to sleep. My favorite track we’re very hard to choose as usual but the opening track: Poetry ft. Q-Tip, Erykah Badu & MeShell N'degeocello by Roy Hargrove from the album The RH Factor: Hard Groove is simply majestic, Roy Hargrove is the horn of our generation and if you are not into jazz look him he’s worth it and he’s definitely not your grandpa’s jazzman. Then I have to show love to Misteur Valaire with the track Press 2 from the album Friterday Night. These cats are just doing their thing; their music is an amalgamation of jazz, techno and hip-hop. Their album is free but I would of gladly paid for their music. Last but not least is This Beat by The Jazzual Suspects part of the mushroom jazz series mixed by DJ Mark Farina from OM Records and I’ve been following that series since the beginning (late 90’s) I have all the volumes and Farina never ceases to amaze me.

Cates&dpL - Sunday Roast Free Mix Download

I always enjoyed the Label OM Records, I discovered them in the late 90’s early 2000 during the electronic music explosion. They even had a strong hip hop group called People Under The Stairs. My favorite artists from that Label are DJ Mark Farina famous for his Mushroom Jazz series, Kaskade, Samantha James, and DJ Collette. The Last purchase I made was OM Lounge: 15 Year Anniversary and it was some sweet chilled out vibes. Anyways while browsing on their site… at work, I found out they do podcasts and I found a sweet one, strictly downtempo electronica so you can smooth it out some.

This is the newest downtempo mix from OM Records recording artist Cates&dpL. Fresh off the release of Through the Weekend, the duo keeps it moving with this moody yet uplifting downtempo set featuring Thievery Corporation, Asad Rizvi and a couple of their own productions.
