We Are Back (Peddling The Same Cosmic Bollocks We Always Have)
Lindstrom & Solale – Baby I Can’t Stop (Aeroplane Remix)
As the previous 8 month old post attests to, everything has been changing in 2009. Mark is making a name for himself selling fancy gingham from Sri Lanka, Chris is about to embark on the next chapter of whatever the hell he’s planning, and I’ve been [...]
With A Glimmer Of Hope
Rheingold – Dreiklangsdimensionen (MP3)
 Chicago – I’m A Man (Rub ‘n’ Tug Edit) (MP3)
A night so good it takes you a week to get over it? Last Thursday saw The Glimmers (née Twins) take over a dank Manchester basement to give us a taste of the music they love to eat. It was all part of [...]
So That Was 2007 Part I
Talking Drums – Courage (MP3)
And we had it all planned out: clever categories, highlights from a year’s worth of only-amusing-to-us musical anecdotes, celebrity contributions and oh so much more. It was going to be amazing, it was going to be the Best Foot Forward End Of Year Round-Up. But all the down-time, and the down-time-induced [...]
A Great Song With A Lonnnnng Name
Vastkustska Ryggdunkarsallskape – Town Out Of Order (MP3)
As I’m writing this post, I’m wondering whether such a huge artist title will break our fresh and so far untested blog template. We can only hope it can withstand the constant constanant onslaught from a mystery swede. This is a stomping balearock track, and the bearded brainboxes [...]
Lets do the voodoo…
Lonnie Liston Smith & The Cosmic Echoes – Voodoo Woman (MP3)
What we have here is some super smooth jazz-funk, courtesy of Lonnie Liston Smith & The Cosmic Echoes. Available on the 1975 ‘Expansions‘ lp, ‘Voodoo Woman’ probably doesn’t get as much airplay as it should, due to most people playing the self titled ‘Expansions’ track [...]
D-percussion invasion…
venus gang – love to fly (mp3)
most of our manchester based readers should know that it’s the wonderful d-percussion festival over the weekend – the last one ever apparently…
anyway, our good friend and occasional bff contributor, mr ryan hunn, has invited the bff dj team (me and kev) to play down on the sketch [...]
Cosmic disco powers…
If you head on over to our friends at cosmic disco, you will find 5 hours worth of musical downloads (yes a whole 5 hours) from saturday’s best foot forward v’s cosmic disco showdown. here at bff, we would like to thank all three of the cosmic fraternity for coming down, in what was a [...]
In the beginning there was the machine…
automat – the rise, the advance, the genus (mp3)
back in 1978 romano musumarra and claudio gizzi concieved, arranged and played all the music on their self titled ‘automat’ album. using a mcs-70 synthesiser, the album was created around the concept of the ‘machine’, and the dependency of the human on such machines. a little [...]
Outer space woman…
la belle epoque – miss broadway (mp3)
herman’s rocket – space woman (mp3)
picked up ‘miss hollywood’ earlier today from my local cancer research boutique. my la belle epoque knowledge is pretty minimal – it means ‘the beautiful era’ in french – but any sleeve that has the words ‘discoteca’ on the front will always [...]
He flutes, he scores…
pierre dalmon – jungle melody (mp3)
due to a severe lack of activity over the last few days, i thought i had better rectify this with a quick track…
‘jungle melody’ is a smooth jazz flute tune courtesy of your main man pierre dalmon. appearing on his self titled lp from 1977, monsieur dalmon calls in pierre-alain [...]
