Inside Clubbing puts the spotlight on club culture - in all its sweaty, visceral and seductive glory. Moving from hip-hop clubs to fetish events and beyond, the author guides us through the huge spectrum of the contemporary club experience. Drawing on interviews with clubbers from a variety of backgrounds, the author dispels myths and offers new insight into the clubbing scene. Contrary to popular perception, for example, clubbing is not just for youths. The clubbers in Inside Clubbing range from mid-twenties to mid-fifties. Many have been on the scene for years and offer a historical perspective on changes over the last decade. The range of clubs and clubbers discussed also demonstrates the diversity of club culture its more than just an ecstasy-fuelled dance scene. Taking us into queer, trance, Asian, techno, drum n bass, and sex clubs - among others - Inside Clubbing explores the real practice of clubbing. It looks at what people experience and how it affects them, as well as their values and concerns - from friendship and community to drugs, the body, and life outside the clubbing space. This book breaks new ground in offering us the most balanced and sophisticated understanding of the club scene to date

FREE Download - Hotdrop - Dis[Cover] Showcase

February 22nd, 2010 by 'little rascal'

More awesome dub from our friends in Spain - oh so good..If ya love dub, start downloading!

Hotdrop - Dis[Cover] Showcase

Hotdrop - Dis[Cover] Showcase,

Greetings! Good news in the reggae-dub planet with Hotdrop’s new release ‘Dis[cover] Showcase’ a delightful selection of powerful covers that aim straight to the heart of Jamaican rhythm lovers.

‘Dis[cover]’ will rock you with its authentic showcase format, each track has a first vocal part which later gives way to a totally atmospheric ‘Hotdroppic’ dub.

On this occasion, the Spanish band leaves its mark with a unique covers compilation, often played live by Hotdrop, which renders tribute to souls classics (William Devaughn, The Spinners) and legendary late 70s reggae singles (Matumbi, Dennis Brown, Inner Circle).

Entirely recorded in Madrid city and mixed analogically in a 8 track device, ‘Dis[cover]’ works as a time machine that brings us these vintage scented unique covers, never loosing Hotdrop’s refreshing sound.

The record travels from soul grounds with the mellow ‘Be Thankful’, passing the rhythmic soulful-reggae with ‘Bluebeat & Ska’ and the indomitable ‘I’ll be around’, to end up flowing into the wild Caribbean sound of ‘Should I’ and ‘Reggae Thing’, culminating this musical trip in ‘Straight to the Greencat’s head’, dubwise from the caverns.

Hotdrop - Dis[Cover] Showcase

Tracklist:
1.- Be thankful extended version
2.- Bluebeat & ska discomix
3.- I’ll be there
4.- I’ll be there pt.2
5.- Should i ft. Carlos Alonso
6.- Drum & bass version
7.- Reggae thing ft. Quique Vaz
8.- Straight to the greencat’s head

Mixed by Puppashan @ discoinferno.
Masterized by Nick Litwin at Mastering Mansion Madrid.

Police & Thieves [Bonus Tracks] (1977)

by Junior Murvin

About this title: This is one of those albums that winds up on just about every list of essential reggae recordings, and with good reason. Like Max Romeo’s War Ina Babylon (which is equally essential, and can be considered a companion to this one), it was recorded under the auspices of Lee “Scratch” Perry at his legendary Black Ark studio, and is saturated with Perry’s trademark dense, murky sound. Murvin sings in a fierce and beautiful falsetto, a voice that lends a unique weight to such dark masterpieces as “Lucifer,” “Roots Train,” and the title track (which was later recorded by the Clash). Perry surrounds Murvin’s voice with great washes of echo and reverb and keeps the tempos slow and intense, giving the album an almost Biblical feel. Ignore the goofy album art on the CD reissue — there is nothing lighthearted about any of these songs, nor is there a single wrong note or misplaced effect. There may be eight or ten perfect reggae albums in existence, and this is certainly one of them. [The 2003 reissue of Police & Thieves adds expanded liner notes, photos, and five tracks to the original running order. “Childhood Sweetheart” and a cover of Curtis Mayfield’s “People Get Ready, ” retitled here “Rasta Get Ready,” are previously unreleased. “Memories” is the B-side of the “Police & Thieves” single. Also included are extended mixes of “Bad Weed” and “Roots Train,” which features additional vocals by Dillinger.] ~ Rick Anderson, All Music Guide

Its cool what rarities, bargains and savings you can find when diggn around the internet…
