More "THAIMA"
SPUR OF THE MOMENT # 1 – THAIMA
After two long play albums – “Translations” (2007) and “Unfold” (2008) – HipHop producer Samon Kawamura is back with his “Spur of the Moment” series; a collection of impromptu beats, whose essence lies in their spontaneity. In this series, Kawamura acts on impulse, capturing raw experiences and fleeting moments of inspiration and building beats which embody them; anything from a flash of insight whilst in the studio to encounters whilst travelling the world. In order to preserve these transient moments as quickly as possible Kawamura headed straight to the drawing board and created sounds – “Spur of the Moment” is the result. Unrehearsed and true to Kawamura’s roots.
THAIMA is the first instalment of the series; 25 tracks inspired by vintage sounds from Thailand. Simply put, Kawamura has taken classics sounds from Bangkok’s street kitchens and infused them with his own HipHop flavours. Dinner is served.

Samon Kawamura & Aloe Blacc
Dear friends,
Nesola went to see Aloe Blacc on Wednesday in Berlin's Tausend Bar and it made us reminisce about the great collaboration between Aloe Blacc and our very own Samon Kawamura on the latter's "UNFOLD" album back in 2008..
Euer Nesola

OUTTAKES BERLIN VOL.1!
Happy new year! It's been awhile but I'm back on the blog ( in japan, we call these kind of boring jokes "oyaji-gag", means man of middle age making dull jokes...).
And I'm back with the promised second part of the Unfold rough instrumental outtakes.
It's a little confusing with the titles of those parts, but in the end it should be:
Tokyo Vol.1 and 2 and Berlin Vol.1 and 2...all in all 4parts.
It's free for download, so enjoy and spread the word!

After Verve Club
I tell you, I wouldn't have gone anywhere, if I didn't have to...it was one of these absolutely horrible cold and rainy days in Berlin. So I wasn't really mad at the people that didn't show up. But at some point there were quite few people in the bar enjoying their drinks. Götz Bühler (musicjournalist, recordcollector, DJ) and me have been talking about all the albums I had on itunes with me...anyway, it was a very relaxed evening and these are some of the things I played. From Kimiko Kasai to Flying Lotus... |

Just when you thought you lost it...
I just found this CD again! I think I lost it before my itunes era, that must be about six years ago...but I really missed this one. It's a live recording at Chicago'sCook County Jail on Friday the 13th, 1972. Jimmy McGriff, George Freeman, Odonel Levy, Lucky Thompson, Cedar Walton were the performers on that day. Especially Cedar Walton and Lucky Thompsons interpretation of Green Doplhin Street...A.T.C.Q. sampled that for "we got the jazz, we got the jazz, we got the jazz......";. Soul Jazz at it's finest!
You can get it here, if you are interested.
