STEVIE WONDER - Happy Birthday (12'' version)

Heute feiere ich meinen 45. Geburtstag und mein music.blog seinen 5. Jahrestag seit seinem Bestehen. Schon richtig, dass das erste Posting erst im Februar dieses Jahres stattgefunden hat; das wird natuerlich gesondert gefeiert.
Aber was waere ein Geburtstag ohne Geburtstagslied, und das Folgende ist wohl das Beste, was man finden kann. Ich jedenfalls wuensche mir weiterhin viele Besucher hier im blog und viel mehr Rueckmeldungen als bisher. In diesem Sinne wuensche ich allen noch sehr viel Spass mit meinem music.blog fuer die Zukunft!

Today I celebrate my birthday no. 45 and my music.blog the anniversary no. 5 since establishing. It's right that the first posting was made in February; this of course will celebrated seperately.
But what is a birthday without a birthday song? Nothing. And this one is the best one I was able to find. So I wish myself furthermore many visitors of this blog and much more comments than yet. In this spirit I wish you all much fun with my music.blog in the future!

cheers,

Floyd Anderson.

SÉBASTIEN TELLIER - La Ritournelle (chronovisor edit)

Hello all!

Isn't it wonderful to present music on 11 of 11 in 11? :-)

And here we go.

Recently I rediscovered the music from an outstanding French singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. This did happen because I browsed in the www for movie soundtracks, and there I found 'Narco', a french movie from 2004.

And I also am a fan of the music of FELA KUTI. But what relationship do have FELA and the today's artist I want to present you? It's the presence of the 'funky drummer' TONY ALLEN, who founded the real 'Afro Beat' in the 70s.

In the 70s and 80s he was the drummer in FELA's band, and in the today's tune his play fits perfect to the melancholic sounds of this French genius I introduce you today. I combined the session version from 2006 with the studio version from 2004 into a 'collage of sounds' I would call it.

ENJOY! Floyd Anderson.

XANADU & SWEET LADY - Rockers Choice (chronovisor mix)

A sweet hello from the again warmer getting Australia!

Today I present you one of the first ever released femal rap tunes. Luckily I found this fantastic one when I browsed the www about the history of rap.

As far as I know this 12", which is produced by the legerdary JOE GIBBS, yet is not released digitally, and will perhaps never be.

Of course it's a Jamaican version of SUGARHILL GANG'S 'Rappers Delight'. I combined the vocal and the instrumental verson to a typical conservative 'chronovisor mix'.

ENJOY! Floyd Anderson.

50 CENT - In Da Club (chronovisor mix)

Hi out there!

After a longer absence I present you today a Hip-Hop song from 2003 which reached top rankings almost everywhere in the world. It's very nice produced but unfortunately no 12" version ever was released.

I simply combined the vocal version and the instrumental version, and the result was a proper long version edit made of the tradion way of 'chronovisor mixes'.

ENJOY! Floyd Anderson.

GILBERT O'SULLIVAN - Alone Again (Naturally) (T2MM Edit)

Hello!

Today I again have the pleasure to present you an outstanding mix-version of a very successful song of the 70s. From time to time, when I fly through the www, I find stuff like this, and then I think, this must be posted, it is too good to be ignored.

This version of the today's tune was mixed by The Two Mamarrachos, and folks, it's worth it to have a listen. I promise, you'll like it, as I do.

Floyd Anderson.

Golden Years (Cygnet Extended Mix)


"..in walked luck and you looked in time. Never look back, walk tall, act fine..."

Yes. Another mix of Golden Years.
My Bowie fanaticism knows no end.

This mix features only the original version which I extended to 6:26 minutes. I made use of the remix stems recently made available in an iphone app – but not using an iphone… or the app.

Golden Years is well known enough, no need to go into any description about the song I believe, as it features on almost all best of Bowie compilations.

One interesting note though is that a few folks actually did cover this song. Reason I mention this is that it tends to be a Bowie song that isn't chosen very often. Wonder why... probably singing "Angel" in a falsetto places it in the too-hard-basket for most. That reason ofcourse didn't stop young Marilyn Manson creating his own alternative improvised mistake.

The two better covers are by Loose Ends (1986) and Mascara (1979).

Anyway, here is a mix I’m a little proud of. Enjoy!

ICEHOUSE - Hey Little Girl (chronovisor mix)

Hi there music.blog.lovers!

These days I spotted a peace of music in the www I was looking for ages. And I must say, that without other people's fantastic work bringing up these little gems in a perfect quality, my results wouldn't be as good as they are. So, thank you everyone who makes these things possible! ;-)

Now, the today's track is one of the classical pop songs of the 80s, made from a very successful Australian band and hey, I live in Australia, so... ;-)

So, all I did was combining the vocal version with the dub version creating a 'chronovisor mix' with my best intentions to make it the most easy listening for you.

P.S.: This mix is dedicated to my beloved wife who I met today three years ago, and I thought by myself: 'Hey little girl...' ;-)

ENJOY! Floyd Anderson.

Here Comes The Man (Cygnet Mix)


For those who were young in the 80s in South Africa...
Boom Boom Room was a very short-lived pop band from the UK who had little success, except for this single which became very successful in South Africa in 1986.
It was also used in a TV commercial for Storm deodorant at that time and this is where I heard it the first time...and then never again until a few years back on Youtube. I extended the original 12" version to be longer for this mix.

chronovisor mix series vol. 3

Hi music.blog.lovers!

Today I present you the second and perhaps last part of a miniseries about the canadian DJ and music producer JOEL THOMAS ZIMMERMAN.

I found enough material which he produced since 2005, and I was able to mix a second tribute CD you can find here.

A tracklist of this CD again is tagged into the file and very easy to spot.

I am finished with it, and I will focus on different acoustic episodes in the future.

But for now let the fun continue and ENJOY! Floyd Anderson.

chronovisor mix series vol. 2

Hello music.blog.lovers!

About 175 weeks ago I started with this mix series not knowing, if I ever would continue, and I almost didn't.

But recently I literally fell with my listening-ears on the Canadian based disc jockey and music producer JOEL THOMAS ZIMMERMAN, who started releasing progressive house music and trance tracks and also remixes in 2005.

His very DJ-friendly productions helped me a lots mixing myself a tribute CD to honour this guy, who really is 'the killer of the dancefloors of the world' to me these days.

A tracklist of this CD is tagged into the file and very easy to spot.

I obviously can't get to old for this type of dance music, which I am very glad for.

So, let the fun begin and ENJOY! Floyd Anderson.

a-ha - "The Living Daylights" (808's Licence to Kill Mix)


"The Living Daylights" was a revolutionary installment in the James Bond movie franchise. This 1987 movie was most notable, in that it was the first to star actor Timothy Dalton in the role of James Bond. And of course, the score by composer John Barry is, as always, memorable.

Continuing on from 1983's "A View to a Kill", in which Barry enlisted British new wave band Duran Duran to do the title song, here it is the Norway pop group a-ha who contributes the movie's title theme. While this song is memorable, and powerful in it's own right, a-ha themselves recorded what I thought was a far superior version of this song for their 1988 album "Stay On These Roads". This version always seemed to me to be more focussed, and powerful.

So, for this extended mix, while I did use some parts from the original song, and also the 12" extended mix based from that mix, I relied most heavily on the (in my view) far superior album cut. At various parts throughout the song, and especially during the overly bombastic beginning and ending of this mix, I made use of John Barry's orchestral version of this song as well. The result is an extended mix which I think truly captures the James Bond spirit.

This mix clocks in at a leisurely 9 minutes and 40 seconds
