    GRAFFITI ART LAUNCH @ THE COBDEN CLUB
    15/3/2001. A one-off multi media event.
    Title: The Invisible
    Artist: Rough AKA Remi Morgan
    Venue: The Cobden Club
    Date March 15th, 2001
    Exhibition runs for one month.
    Remi Morgan AKA noted artist Rough, has been
    painting all his life and writing 'Graffiti for over 16
    years. He has a collective known as the Ikonoclast
    movement and has taken his medium to many
    different levels including fine art, graphic design,
    illustration, clothing, film and music. As well as a
    clothing range that has sold in both the UK and
    Japan, Remi's designs have been featured within
    Bond International's signature label. His illustrations
    have ranged from the Maharishi camouflage book
    to magazines such as Fat Boss, Lo-Down, Elle
    and Sleazenation. In his own words: 'I see Graffiti
    as a modern day rock'n'roll where writers are finally
    getting accepted by the media and utilised to their
    full capabilities whilst getting involved in many
    projects outside of the actual art form'.
    Clients include: The Arsonists, Nike, Jazz Fudge
    Records, Channel 4, Bond International, Elle
    Magazine, Big Dada Records, Fosters Ice
    Lo-Down, Board X and Blues & Soul amongst
    many others.
    Remi's works have been exhibited in the UK,
    Europe and Australia. 'The Invisible' is his first
    foray into the capital this year and presents a
    selection of brand new paintings with Slam City
    Skates coming on board (No pun intended) to
    provide snow and skate boards for Remi to
    customise. Charlie Dark of the band Attica
    Blues will perform a spoken word piece as a
    tribute based on the Graffiti genre. He will be
    Djing on the night with sidekick Acyde best
    known for his superb DJ & mic skills, (MC's
    at Blueprint Sessions at Plastic People,
    Scratch, ICA etc ) and his celebrated writing
    in press such as Spine.com, Level,
    Darkerthanblue.com and Straight
    No Chaser.
    The night will be attended by press, radio
    and various media. For more information
    and VIP tickets please contact Anna
    Goodman @ Abstrakt. The Cobden is
    a private club and in order to accommodate
    our guests on the night, please RSVP .

    This weeks chart #### This weeks chart #### This weeks chart

    1. Modaji - S/T (Laws of Motion) 2xLP
    21st century soul boy Dominic Jacobson finally delivers
    his first long player! He's come along way since the
    days of 'Starburst over Orion'. He's also matured into
    one of the finest producers and songwriters around.
    I'm feeling very proud to be charting this record
    number 1. Respect DHJ.

    2. Sepia - Age of Cool (Underground Evolution) CD-R
    Taking from the unreleased 'City of Strangers' album.
    This cuts the mustard in a similar vein to last years
    stunning 'Surrender' track that some many peeps missed
    out on! Sepia outta Chicago and one of the true secrets
    of the left hand lane!

    3. Afronaught - Transcend Me (Apollo) 12"
    Soon come! Soon come! Hold on boys and girls.
    Whites about so the finished article only days
    away! Get ready also for the O-Dawg album to
    compliment this excellent twelve.

    4. Vikter Duplaix - Manhood (Rima remix)(Groove Attack) CD-R
    Domu teaming up with the Volcov to produce an excellent
    twisted version of one of last years classics. Nuff said when
    you team these three together. Rima ready to roll!

    5. Koop - V/T (Diesel Music) 10"
    Nuff waltz and bossa bizniz going on here! 3 track sampler
    from the forthcoming album including last years blinding
    'Waltz for Koop'. Looking forwards to the Koop man at
    'Plastic People' this month too.

    6. V/A - Visions Sampler (Visions) 2x12"
    Alex Attias and friends give us an awesome double
    pack of future jazz licks. Featuring Jessica Lauren,
    Domu, Stephane Attias with Vanessa Freeman and
    the Volcov man gets serious too.

    7. Ray Mang & Pete 2 - Praia Do Londres (R&S) 12"
    Nice rolling percussive rhythms and with a certain deepness that
    brings a warmth and sincerity to the tune. Pitch it down a little and
    slip gently into modes of hypnotism too! If you enjoyed 'Chaser's'
    'Life in Loiasada' then check this.

    8. Jazztronik - Inner Flight (Counterpoint) 2xLP
    This not coming through Flower recordings but through
    Brighton's Counterpoint label. Japanese fusion exponents
    deliver a slice of new and some older sought after
    recordings on two mighty slices of vinyl.

    9. Kaidi Tatham - Betcha (Original/Son of Scientist mix)(Bitasweet) CD-R
    Kaidi letting loose with more mad West London side
    stepping! Forget two step, this is twenty two step!
    Check soon for more Bitasweet productions coming
    thorugh.

    10. Mum - Miss Defied (Baby Mammoth remix)(Klein) 12"
    Part one of a new Klein series of twleves and we plump
    for the excellent Baby Mammoth re work of 'Miss Defied'.
    Hip hop with the continental twist. More coffee and
    sachertorte please.

    11. DJ Zinc - Casino Royale (True Playerz) Acetate
    Premier jazzified DnB tune doing the rounds. Uplifting
    cordial beats with soundtrack feel and energy. A
    proper roller!

    12. Ne Grove - Let it Ride (House mix)(Pure Filth) 12"
    Leroy, Marcus and the crew give us a West London
    classic with new house vibes! Super dance floor
    friendly and with new vocals by Mr Begg. Silk
    production as always with 'soul' as the source.

    13. P'taah - Flying High (unreleased mix)(Ubiquity) 2xLP
    The original album was killa and the remix 'De'Compressed'
    project follows the same path. All the excellent remix's from
    the Ubiquitous set of twelve's and three new tracks including
    a great rework of 'Flying High' by the man himself.

    14. Wai Wan & Loretta Heywood - Feelin' Me Feelin' You (Earth Project) 12"
    Earth Project going the same way as 'People' records!
    Basically from strength to strength. Excellent package in
    EP004 including a awesome Atjazz remix. Ms Heywood
    as ever, delivering super strong vocals.

    15. Dennis Ferrer & Jehlaz - Jehlaz (Ibadan) 2xLP
    Deep and soulful house excursion from a excellent
    Ibadan compilation by Kerri Chandler and Jerome
    Syndrome called 'Saturday'. Jehlaz the deepest cut
    and worth the price tag alone.

    16. Yesterday's New Quintet - EP (Stones Throw) 12"
    More Madlib mayhem! Excellent Lo-Fi hip hop from Quasi
    producer. Doing my head in with the riffs and samples used!
    Clocked the Tom Browne 'Herbal Scent' one but need help
    with the others.

    17. Zero Crossing - Missed Torsion (Remixes)(Spinning Wheel) 12"
    Well, I had a listen to the flip and Gorden Bennet, There's a
    Domu broken beat biscuit to contend with the TAOS A side!
    I need to listen to my records more closely! Respect
    Spinning Wheel, respect Mr Stanton.

    18. Les Gammas meets Clare Fischer - Descarga Yema Ya (Mojo) 2xLP
    Choice cut from the Mojo club remix album number two and
    really nice to finally get it on plastic. The rest of the album
    misses the mark but hey Clare Fischer vs Les Gammas!

    19. Two Banks of Four - Homegirl (Sirkus) CD-R
    Proper song, proper production! Beautifully sung by Valerie
    Ettiene. A story told indeed! If you enjoyed 'Sweet Lullabies'
    and 'The Birds Sing' then you need to look out for this. Get
    ready for 'Moving' track too!

    20. Breakestra - Remember who you are (Stones Throw) 12"
    Stones Throw showing diversity with this slice of real
    retro soul! We check the flip side for some serious
    kick ass husky voc's and wicked horn stabs!

    21. Difusion - Illusive Angel (Solaria) CD-R
    Venom and Uncle get it done with this deep and vibrating
    sound off! Somewhere between Drum n Bass and West
    London broken beats! A bunch of Viper/Venom stuff
    sounding off very soon!

    22. Hipnotic - Naima (Original & Ian O'Brien mixes)(Laws of Motion) 12"
    Over 2 years in the CD player but now in vinyl format! Long
    awaited Fleming Brothers interpretation of Coltranes classic.
    Chunky eleven min remix from Mr O'B too. Lets hope we
    don't have to wait another two years for the follow up!

    23. Sequel - Upsolid EP (Straight Ahead) 12"
    Really enjoying this one! Vocals on 'Why' by Ms
    Shoney White are sublime! Rest of the EP delivers
    too. Broken beat outta Switzerland! Aiight!

    24. London Elektricity - Round the Corner (Landslide rmx)(Hospital) CD-R
    Tim Land always delivers the best two step action! This no
    exception! Forthcoming remix for a great song that still gets
    regular outings in my sets!

    25. Cruel-L Grand Orchestra - We Live for Life (Recloose rmx)(Cruel-L) 12"
    Oh my god! Another outrageous Recloose remix this time for
    Japan's Cruel-L imprint. This man has a sound! Recloose big
    in 2001! For sure! Detroit back on the map! Recloose definitely
    doing his thing in London very soon. Plastic People the venue.

    Coffee compliment this week.
    Chico Hamilton - The Dealer (Impulse AS-9130, 1966)
