Furious Styles Radio. DJ BBQ, Ethiopian Jazz, and loads more.

This week on the Furious Styles show, I had a chat with DJ BBQ, aka Christian Stevenson. The man with "the beats and the meats" dropped in to talk about "12 Records That Changed My Life". I also played three tunes from the golden era of Ethiopian music, a break to the beat linking Barry White with Jay-Z, and a few more random bits and pieces. 

Check the show here or press play below. 

DJ Tayo's Furious Styles - 12/11/2014 by Soho Radio on Mixcloud

Next week I have "El Amata" aka Leo Walton stopping in to talk music, his new pub venture and the 12 Records That Changed His Life. We won't talk  football though - he supports Sp*rs, alas. 

Check the show, leave a comment, and oh yes - enjoy.

Furious Styles Radio: November 5th.

Norman Jay used to open his "Original Rare Groove Show" on the radio with Carl Davis & The Chi Sound Orchestra's "Windy City". the drum break at the beginning, the guitar lick then those strings meant two hours of heaven. I started last night's Furious Styles Show the same way in tribute. Coldcut's legendary Kiss shows used to have that "mash up your speakers with the broadest selection" was another one that got me excited. It got me thinking about what *my* signature tune should be? 

I mentioned this on Twitter yesterday and got some interesting suggestions. Keep them coming over the next few weeks. 

Last night's show right here - two break to the beat excursions, featuring Dennis Edwards and Betty Wright, a new one from DJ Haus, John Morales' mix of Marvin, some Wiley, and my new favourite record from a duo called Aanbrecken, amongst other things. Enjoy and spread the word like butter. 

Shout out to Mike Cuban / Michael Nice (pictured) for dropping in. I've got DJ BBQ on the show next week with the "12 Records That Changed His Life".

Chatting to DJ Harvey on Bestival Radio.

Amongst the amazing four days of radio we broadcast this year at Bestival, a personal highlight was chatting away to Harvey. He was loquacious and  entertaining, whizzing through some of the key periods in his life that helped to build the legend.  And of course he played some pretty exceptional music as well.

As Jackson couldn’t fluently play any instruments, he would sing and beatbox out how he wanted his songs to sound by himself on tape, layering the vocals, harmonies and rhythm before having instrumentalists come in to complete the songs.

One of his engineers Robmix on how Jackson worked: “One morning MJ came in with a new song he had written overnight. We called in a guitar player, and Michael sang every note of every chord to him. “here’s the first chord first note, second note, third note. Here’s the second chord first note, second note, third note”, etc., etc. We then witnessed him giving the most heartfelt and profound vocal performance, live in the control room through an SM57. He would sing us an entire string arrangement, every part. Steve Porcaro once told me he witnessed MJ doing that with the string section in the room. Had it all in his head, harmony and everything. Not just little eight bar loop ideas. he would actually sing the entire arrangement into a micro-cassette recorder complete with stops and fills.”

Reasons why I laugh when people say he wasn’t a real musician.

Michael Jackson being fantastic.
