Flavour of the Month goes Garage Soul: Sky Dee and the Demons, Good Times 5.12.2013

skydee

A new month and a new Flavour of the Month. Sky Dee and the Demons & Good Times will share the stage at Pikku-Torre, Turku on thursday 5th of December. See you there. Below is the Finnish lesson of the month. I also want to thank FOTM’s marketing department for giving me a DJ name. I didn’t have one. Along with Chips Pussy and Kolibri Kasino that looks a bit like that legendary black metal line-up Saergh, Blaerah ja Seppo.

Joulukuun Flavour of the Month-ilta järjestetään poikkeuksellisesti torstaina, eli itsenäisyyspäivän aattona 5.12. Tuolloin klubin livevieraaksi saapuu helsinkiläinen Sky Dee and the Demons, joka hämmentää tyylikästä, uruilla ryyditettyä autotallirock-soul-keitosta. Bändi on julkaissut Stupido Recordsilla peräti kolme CD-EP:tä ja vihdoin aiemmin tänä vuonna myös täyspitkän albumin Just Like That.

Illan avaa Flavour of the Monthin epävirallinen housebändi, klubin järjestäjäportaasta siinnyt The Good Times. Kvartetin musiikkilinjaus liikkuu linjalla 60-luvun beat-vanha rytmiblues-garagerock.

Illan teemaan sopivasta levymusiikista vastaavat DJ:t Vesa Lautamäki, Chips Pussy ja Kolibri Kasino.

The Wonderminers album coming out 16th of January

wonderminers

Warning! Pop monster on the horizon. But don’t get scared. I think this monster will be kind and warmhearted. The Wonderminers album These Fell Off The Shelf will be released 16th of January and I’m almost 100% sure that it’s going to a wonderful pop album. After all, it’s Petri Nakari and pretty much all Finnish pop fans already know that this man is more than capable of writing the loveliest pop songs. Midnight Winter’s Dream is the first outtake from the forthcoming album and this beautiful song goes like this.

Stereo 8000 – Magnet

stereo8000

New Stereo 8000 album will hit the stores and our hearts in early 2014, but they are giving an early taste of things to come with a brand new music video. Duel by Anssi 8000 & Maria Stereo was a huge favourite of mine back in 2008. Therefore I’m really excited about the upcoming album. Magnet is just one song, but based on this gorgeous tune the forthcoming album is going to be another great one. The new album is out on Bone Voyage Recording Company in early 2014. Magnet goes like this.

Jim Guthrie – Takes Time

guthrie

I’m not sure why I waited this long. I listened to this when it came out in the spring and liked what I heard, but I didn’t end up buying it back then. Now I finally did and oh my.. this is a thing of beauty. Toronto-based Jim Guthrie has created a heavenly piece of pop music. I suppose I can understand if someone finds this boring, but to me this kind of music is the sweetest work of art and Takes Time sounds so wonderful. Canadians just seem to make my favourite pop music this year. This Jim Guthrie album, The Heavy Blinkers’ Health and Corner Of The Eye by Marine Dreams are all fabulous pop albums. And also Woodpigeon and so much more. This is The Rest is Yet To Come by Jim Guthrie.
