WAX MUSEUM JAM FIRST BIRTHDAY FEAT KON

We have the first birthday of our monthly Wax Museum Records Jam coming up on August 28th. To celebrate we have Kon (Kon & Amir) coming out from NYC to headline with a bangin' line up! Plus we are also the official launch party for the AIAIAI TMA-1 DJ Headphones with a few lucky people to win a pair on the night.

On the Jam tip we've got a new separate blog happening now for it where we'll host all of our podcasts, gig info, mailing list and giveaways!

Make sure you add WAXMUSEUMJAM.WORDPRESS.COM to your RSS feeds. It's a work in progress but will be fully going soon. Also if you are on facebook join the new page here!

KON & AMIR - OFF TRACK VOL 3: BROOKLYN MIX

Kon & Amir - Off Track Vol. Iii: Brooklyn (Mix) by Moovmnt on Mixcloud

Off Track III finds the New York/Boston-based pair shining light on another diverse array of underexposed vinyl. The eclectic African disco and soul cuts Amir highlights on his disc are Americanized by style but inherently authentic in feel, demonstrating the very best of the region’s dance music from the period following Fela Kuti’s mid-70s creative peak. Some standouts: Tee Mac’s 1980’s insistently catchy ‘Living Everyday’; Effi Duke’s percussive masterpiece ‘The Time Is Come’; and Christy Essien’s glorious ‘You Can’t Change’, which features famed bandleader Geraldo Pino’s Show Train outfit. Also in the mix are a couple of cuts from unsung Nigerian star Dizzy K. Falola aimed at sophisticated dancefloors.
