Possible Sounds of Early Cinema

For August, we have selected another ten records from the shelves of our friends at Two Side Records, this time with a focus on Soundway Records. Four records will introduce you to the Soundway's specific sound, while the rest of six will walk you through rhythms of jazz, hip hop, reggae, and soul.

Already a drummer for some time, Winston Williams, aka Horseman, made his MC debut back in 1985, on the Rusty International label. The UK’s premier reggae drummer, Horseman, worked with producers such as Mad Professor, Adrian Sherwood, Scientist, Jah Shaka, and Prince Fatty, to name a few.

Flexing their studio muscle with a whole host of new music, Submotion Orchestra are set to provide another production masterclass with their next single. Blend’ follows on from their cover of Robin S’ classic Show Me Love and reignites their summer plans after rescheduling a single and tour due to COVID-19.

Four years ago, when I first visited Israel, I had a special feeling. It was the young’s people energy surrounding the cities of Tel Aviv and Haifa. I was impressed about the vast music community and their love for sound system culture and Jamaican music. So, my exploration into the Israeli's sound system culture began with last year interview with Miss Red.

We are happy to announce our partnership with the Bucharest record shop, Two Side Records. Every month, we will recommend ten releases from the record shelves. From jazz and funk to world music, and from reggae to electronic, each selection will be divided into two parts.

The album is a work of progress and growth, a somewhat of a continuation of the sound hinted at in “Filament” (Amek, 2016) and Angel Simitchiev’s recent work with various side projects and collaborations.
