heavy üsker chart

heavy üsker plays out in various clubs in madrid as well as broadcasting radio madrid which reaches a truly worldwide audience (usa, uk, japan, brasil, china and even belize). radio madrid is now recorded and broadcast live on radio círculo 100.4 fm, saturdays from 22:00-00:00.

this chart also appears in enlace funk (spain's only magazine dedicated to the funk)

1. wookie - after all (white)
beautiful "broken" vocal tune. i never go anywhere without this in my box!

2. mighty bop featuring duncan roy - i go crazy (yellow france)
if frank sinatra was alive today i like to think that this is what he would be doing

3. pieter k - la angel (palette)
er, nu flamenco anyone?

4. strike boys - music's in the air (stereo deluxe)
some reggae undertones to this one - i drop this from about halfway through the track

5. oreja - vazilando (papa records)
seiji from bugs in the attic went to peru to as a broken beat missionary and converted these guys to the cause. i hope we see more collaborations of this kind!

6. trüby trio - high jazz (nicola conte remix) (compost)
nicola conte works his bossa magic and turns out another killer. i always thought that the clave sounded a bit weird on the original mix - now it makes sense

7. nathan haines - right by your side (chillifunk)
catchy vocal house with nice horn section

8. martin solveig - i'm a good man (mixture sterephonic)
lee fields sounding as ever like james brown

9. calexico - crystal frontier (buscemi remix)
hard to describe this one - some mexican elements, a samba groove and a hypnotic vocal

10. solid groove - soul provider (solid groove)
simple but effective cut up jazz guitar over a house beat
