While entering The 5 Boro Ice Lounge find a seat, walk around, or even
take the subway to enjoy the chill of the NYC environment, all packed
tightly into this world of ice music.
The 5 Boro Ice Lounge Track Listing:
- Lifesavas: "A Serpent's Love" (Feat. Ish of Digable Planets) -
hopefully this will mean Digable Planets are gearing up for a third
classic...if not, it's great to hear Butterfly's smooth flow again
after his horrible output in his early 2000s Black Cherry album.
- DJ Greyboy: "Genevieve" - DJ Zeph and Azeem sample this music in their latest album, Alpha Zeta
- Bonobo: "Ketto" - Ninja Tune greats
- Karsh Kale: "Hole In The Sky"- along with Talvin Singh, Karsh
Kale (pronounced Kursh Kah-ray) these two classically trained tabla
players from England and NYC have taken their studies into the electronica
fusion, and Mr. Kale, also is absolutely solid behind the acoustic kit.
- Max Sedgley: "Slowly" - hit lounge song from his album From The Roots To The Shoots.
- Cujo: "The Sighting" - Amon Tobin's moniker before signing to Ninja Tune.
- Spaceheater: "Sighting" - nice little jazzy electronica from album The Record
- General Elektriks: "Central Park" - from Quannum Projects (Los
Angeles underground hip hop label), General Elecktriks from Paris
brings an interesting production to his album Cliquety Kliqk.
- Peder: "The Sour" (Feat. Dean Bowman) - so "Sour" you can feel the chills down your backside.
- The Black Keys: "Lies" - This song, as well as the entire album,
features production from hip-hop producer extraordinaire, DJ
Dangermouse.
- Lifesavas: "Gutterfly" (Feat. Camp Lo) - couldn't help but to put
another solid track from the Gutterfly Soundtrack by these hip-hop
Starskies...also, one of my personal favorites, Camp Lo, resurrecting
their career in 2007.
- Apparat: "Hailin From The Edge" - German electronic musician...check out this album, Walls...very interesting stuff.
- Elbow: "One Day Like This" - from their newest epic album The Seldom Seen Kid
- Cold War Kids: "Hang Me Up To Dry" - watch out for these young men, they'll blow up any time now.
- Sissy: "Start Again" - reminds me of early Portishead...speaking
of Portishead, they will be releasing their Third shortly after you
read this...
- DJ Shadow: "Midnight In A Perfect World" - from the classic
Endtroducing... album that earned this man the acknowledgment of being
one of the greatest DJs our planet has heard
