Loden - Valeen Hope

Mush Records

Loden - Valeen Hope

Welcome, my fellow employees, to the glitch factory that is Loden! In "Valeen Hope", the Belgian producer crafts electronic icicles that are poised to hit the dance floor. Written between Amsterdam and Brussels, and originally released by the Dutch label Eat This Records in 2005, this album introduces shoegazing to the club-oriented partygoers.

Some years ago, the Newark, NJ-based hip-hop crew Dälek began their path as metal-rap-shoegazers. Now, it's time to once again read from My Bloody Valentine's dusty manuals and take the nebulous heritage a little higher. Loden's is a subliminal work, but one that skillfully pushes the listener to the depths of his lonesome "Tears For the Thirsty" or to the invigorating flights on his "Ideal Skies".

Either way, the wizard is as hypnotic as a pendulum swinging back and forth, and the journey as dizzy as a circular racing track. And yet, you feel moved by joints like the fuzzed-out, self-revealing "A Star On Your Shoulder", and the guitar-driven title track.

The whole experience is a slow-burning take on pre-sound cinema, snaking its way through the wide unknown of modern art. Scary and conciliatory as it is, "Our Exploding Lives" serves as a suitable soundtrack for late night driving, while the closing track, "KNKK", goes back to that dreamy glimpse of snail-racing comets.

Popular wisdom states that staying away from temptation is the best way to keep one from falling into it. The motto suits Loden's first venture just fine because of its highly addictive features. But it's better to take a bite out of the forbidden apple than to die without knowing what it tastes like.

Far Out - Swinging Bachelor Pad Music

Water Music Records

Far Out - Swinging Bachelor Pad Music

This is a record for the chronically impatient lounge archeologist, as it pays homage to the roots of a sound that has been shaking our collective butts for quite some time. "Swinging Bachelor Pad Music" is a 16-track collection that lands as lightly as a cat, but has the potential to serve as a very effective boredom-repellent in any party.

It kicks off somehow shyly with "Anamaria (Tito Valdez Mix)", a Latin-soaked number by the Key Tronics Ensemble, only to pick up steam a few minutes later on the deranged "Ass Enchillada", by Hammond Express. The latter is an organ-driven track that would only leave someone with dried out cement in their veins untouched.

But if classics are your thing, you should definitely check out the psychedelic reworking of "The Odd Couple", as delivered by Capiozzo & Mecco in a so-called party version. Challenger provides a dramatic take on "Be Bop a Lula" that pulverizes the original into chalky powder. It's the kind of extreme treatment that prevents history from repeating itself, because all you can do is mix up the powder and pour it into a completely new mould.

On the other hand, this record allows lounge history to drag itself out of the swamp in tiny little chapters that may or may not wear make-up to salute the new audiences. In less than three minutes, Black Mighty Wax's "Dona Flor" manages to make all detractors, always ready to eschew lounge music as purely ornamental, sink like heavy stones.

Sure many of the artists featured here make meager livings selling records, but the effort put into making this music for us, the common mortals, to dance to, is priceless. If played in cemeteries, "Mad Atari", as cut by DJ Rodriguez, could easily raise the dead, or at least come close to awakening the spirits of the numb.

Speaking of spirits, no lounge record would be complete without a deliberate liquor reference, and this "Swinging Bachelor Pad Music" has at least two. Montefiori Cocktail's "Tequila Bum Bum", a fetishist sonic water color where downtempo rubs shoulders with jazz, as the party goes on with the serving of "Whisky a Go-Go" by the aforementioned duo Capiozzo & Mecco.

With the conclusion of the record within spitting distance, there come the mind-consuming Tommy Bass's "Bow Wow", and the second resurfacing of "The Odd Couple", now in a vocal version. This is the kind of stuff that makes your foot keep moving way after the party is over and you are profoundly asleep.
