Basement Jaxx - Scars

瘋狂的節拍旋律，推倒五顏六色的染缸，大方地翻攪所有類型定義。來自英國倫敦的Basement Jaxx，對於電音迷而言，不啻是可供膜拜的Filter- House先鋒，更是永不退流行的派對巫師！Felix Buxton與Simon Ratcliffe自1999年的首張專輯《Remedy》開始，浩室舞曲除了性感與能量外，從此多了頑皮與野性。繼而在《Rooty》、《Kish Kash》、《Crazy Itch Radio》等專輯中，一步步地踩碎四四拍的浩室疆界，採集了許多原自非洲與東歐的民族音樂元素，再揉合靈魂與嘻哈／碎拍等流行曲風，並且愈來愈具故事性的歌曲鋪陳，讓專輯像是本探險小說或廣播節目般引人入勝，成為Basement Jaxx的獨門電音美學。

2009年Basement Jaxx終於推出這張睽違三年的全新力作《Scars》，再度強化了他們對於非洲打擊樂與黑人／放客音樂交互混血的迷戀。繽紛的節奏串聯此起彼落的逗趣音色，有點邪惡卻又充滿了趣味！首波主打〈Raindrops〉，團員Felix親自上陣演唱，在浩室節拍中融入歡愉如節慶般的旋律，相信馬上就要攻占全球各大舞池！〈Day of the Sunflowers (We March On)〉在約翰藍儂遺孀Yoko Ono巫婆般的唸唱下，魔幻且寓意深遠。此外，專輯更邀得Kelis、Santigold、Sam Sparro等意想不到的藝人，以及發跡於美國，在歐洲異軍突起的女性饒舌團體Yo Majesty! 跨刀助陣，如萬花筒的跳舞節拍，要你縱使有了傷疤，也要忘情繼續快樂迪斯可！(文章轉自映象唱片)

The Prodigy - Mashup Sessions Vol. 2

好久沒他們的消息，抱著很興奮的心情趕著來聽，一看歌單，我不曉得是該哭還是該笑，難過的是怎麼又是那幾條陳年賣座老歌，仔細看卻忍不住笑了出來，這擺明的就是要惡搞嘛！01 The Prodigy vs 2 Unlimited - Daft Bitch Is Smacking At My Limit這個組合和歌名是怎樣？08 The Prodigy vs Enya And Brit Spears - Enya Smacks My Brit Up！這又是怎樣？三位一體之大融合嗎？聽聽看他們如何將一些流行歌曲戲謔的融入Smack My Bitch Up、Voodoo People...等經典Big Beat中吧！哈～我真覺得他們是越老越瘋癲了...

Uberzone - Ideology

在Breakbeat、Big Beat和Electro的組合運用之下，誕生了這麼一片光怪陸離的強力電子舞曲專輯。Uberzone盡其所能的將所有音色以最化學、最冷冽的方式包裝呈現，營造出充滿前衛、科技感的奇幻感受。對於Uberzone，我打從心底佩服，我佩服他將自己自由、獨立的意念轉化為音符，絲毫沒有受到任何潮流風格的影響，聽起來就是屬於他自己的調調。

Junkie XL - Music From SSX Blur (2007)

電玩公司 Electronic Arts (EA Games) 推出2007年新遊戲 SSX Blur ，於是和音樂廠牌 Nettwerk Music Group 合作，並將配樂的製作交由荷蘭籍的電音界泰斗 - Junkie XL 處理，於是，誕生了這片可說是 Soundtrack 形態的Music From SSX Blur。

如果把它想成是一些逗趣的聲響組合，那也太看不起 Junkie XL 了。電玩中的愉快、開心的成份是有的，Jazz Funk, Rock..等元素在他操弄起來就如同自由自在的畫筆，盡情的揮灑塗抹出他的創意和精湛地拼貼技巧，當第14首歌出現時真是絕妙的時刻，整個愉悅的心情瞬間回歸到沈澱和內省的狀態，接續的King's Crown繼出他的招牌Big Beat做出Happy Ending。曾經聽過有人說他是位電音老頑童？之前不太能了解啥意思，聽過Music From SSX Blur後就很清楚明白了。

The Chemical Brothers - We Are The Night (2007)

老實說，前面幾首我真有點聽不太懂，他們花了太多心思在研究音色的創造了，相形之下，旋律的表現顯得有點薄弱。真正讓我眼睛亮起來是Saturate這首，低頻的電挫音色搭配著狂野的搖滾鼓點，竟然也能如此協調。Das Spiegel也是一首佳作，層層堆疊的音效露出了一些化學兄弟風格。最讓我納悶的是Battle Scars，不懂他們為何要收這首歌？我直接去聽David Bowie還比較原汁原味，這絕不是我想聽的The Chemical Brothers ! 還好11, 12首的優質表現讓原本Down到冰點的期望稍微回溫了一些.....

Groove Armada

Chill Out 音樂天王代表，第一張超級精選，首週空降英國專輯排行第六名！收錄12首橫掃舞池超猛勁曲，包括流線胖小子重新混音新曲I See You Baby(舞曲榜#3,流行榜#11)，知名樂評家小樹掛保證推薦，重溫GA的黃金年代！

人稱「King Of Chill-Out」的Groove Armada，其威名遠播，早已不需贅言。98年的首張專輯《Northern Star》便被舞國指標月刊Muzik封為最佳新進藝人專輯、憑著了得的第二張專輯《Vertigo》，又是入圍全英音樂獎最佳新進藝人、又是拿了舞國雜誌Ministry頒發的最佳Chill-Out專輯，同時深得前輩Elton John的歡心，為大老所主持的名流派對坐鎮；於是Madonna也找上門來提出邀約為"Music"作單曲混音。而錦上添花的事永遠不嫌多，連HBO當紅影集[Sex & The City]都來湊個熱鬧，請他們為原聲帶特製一首主題曲混音。至於那已成經典的代表作"At The River"則被收進無以計數(初估是19次)—以Ibiza沙灘、美、咖啡館或Lounge Bar為封面—的合輯，讓他們紅翻英美。提到Groove Armada，幕後其實是Tom Findlay 與Andy Cato這兩位英倫青年，後者出身管樂手，曾獲年度青年爵士音樂家大獎，由此便不難推想《Vertigo》中總是洋溢著大量銅管樂的出處。他與曾任Nike公關人員的前者於倫敦相識後，以70年代的Disco派對之夜Groove Armada為名，辦了自己的派對並展開他們的創作生涯。

Groove Armada曾公開表示：我們是英國樂團，就是要呈現出大不列顛的英式活力與文化融合！而《Vertigo》正是這些年既騷靈且深遂、最叫人聽而忘憂的傑作之一！但並非人人在這權力慾薰心的世界都急著想稱王，Groove Armada就是例外；或者應該這麼說：起碼他們不想當什麼「King Of Chill-Out」，第三張專輯《Goodbye Country (Hello Nightclub)》便是他們離開既有的成功軌跡，另起風格闖天下的起點，比方輯中那首震翻舞國的雷鬼碎拍饒舌大融合金曲〈Superstyling〉，簡直是Groove Armada新形象的指標。然而另一曲請出民謠老將Richie Havens獻唱、充滿靈性回歸的抒情精品"Little By Little"，卻又是溫暖入心的情感流露。近期的新作《Lovebox》的名稱來自他們新的夜店派對，再度貢獻出滿溢放克搖滾精神、但跟吉米漢垂克斯完全沒關係的"Purple Haze"及洋溢Ska風情的"But I Feel Good"的單曲。如今這些經典代表作全數收錄在這張《The Best Of》，並追加一曲Fatboy Slim用其標準熱鬧Funk-Soul Brothers風格改造的"I See You Baby"，與全球樂迷齊心見證Groove Armada的輝煌年代！(SONYBMG)
