This tune is from a six-track EP from Holland’s Jasper Boer, aka Jap Jap, in the form of ‘A Resonant Discovery’, including a remix by Dutch artist Morgenfish.
It seems to fit my mood at the moment, so I will post it.
Jap Jap - Coloured Cubes (Morgenfish Remix)
A tune from the Alexi Virta classic, Meets Tortsi at the Space Lounge. I haven't been around blogger to post recently so it is probably appropriate to go back to my netmusic roots to put up more Virta goodness.
This release is one of the most downloaded on archive.org and it is easy to see why. There hasn't been much in the way of follow-up from Alexi, but with this beauty out in the world we can be grateful.

A first I thought this was real, but I was talked down and now recognize it as ironic camp. I'm not sure when Bongolong posted this to archive.org, but the name of the release is A Bongolong Christmas 2004. (I'm pretty sure that it wasn't there before when I've put together past BSWChristmas shows).
Bongolong loves Christmas music!The more interesting or weirder the better!! It's always been a dream to make my own Christmas music, taking those familiar melodies and giving them my own special twist.
Almost sounds like a mission statement for BSWChristmas.
Bongolong - Jesus Christ is Comin to Town
Yep. On Wednesday, December 24 (Christmas Eve) at 1:00 pm Biotic and Subsystem will join for their third BSWChristmas. The playlist is coming together and promises to be very sweet, indeed. The show will be live on WBCR-lp, 97.7 FM in Great Barrington. The file will make it's way to this blog, promise.
Thanks to John Curley for the photo...
This tune is from a 12rec compilation of reworked adcbicycle songs. adcBicycle is Matt Chisholm from Ottawa, Canada. According to the liner notes he apparently decided not to release a album's worth of material and asked friends to remix the stuff. The results are pretty cool.
This compilation was released on archive.org on September 11 this year. Lot's of great stuff. This is the tune that sat well with me.
Nice being with you again.

BlocSonic is continuing to release their compilations of excellent net music. As we have mentioned in the past, the NetBloc releases are the complete package with art, music, variety and information. All for the downloading.
The most recent release is netBloc Volume 18 (frais, fresco, frisch, fresh… mmmmmmmmmmm… good).
When I want to sample the latest sweet sounding net releases, BlocSonic provides an excellent sampling. Including this number from Dub One on the iD.EOLOGY netlabel.
Dub One! - Wise Man’s Dub
Some sounds for New Zealand for your pleasure. This release comes via the netlabel, Lo-Kiwi. I found it on the hiddenplace music blog.
The release is called Tender Pecking.
Many songs about owls. I like owls.
There are some excellent tunes on the release. I'm looking forward to spending more time with Owltree and Lo-Kiwi.
Owltree - Daylight is Not for Owls
The excellent site, ReadWriteWeb is reporting that as the Yahoo Music Store exits the scene it will no longer support the Digital Rights Management (DRM) licensing that was embedded in tunes purchased from the service. This will serve as an excellent illustration of what DRM means in the marketplace. Technological obsolescence built into the digital file has significant implications on the longevity of that file.
ReadWriteWeb quotes an e-mail message from Yahoo! Music:
"Songs and albums that were purchased through the Yahoo! Music Unlimited Store are protected by a digital rights management system that requires a valid license key before they can be played on your computer.
After the Store closes, Yahoo! will no longer be able to support the retrieval of license keys for music purchased from Yahoo! Music Unlimited, and Yahoo! will no longer be able to authorize song playback on additional computers.
After September 30, 2008, you will not be able to transfer songs to unauthorized computers or re-license these songs after changing operating systems. Please note that your purchased tracks will generally continue to play on your existing authorized computers unless there is a change to the computer's operating system."
Consumers beware.
I said a boom, wakka chikka, wakka chikka, boom.
Oh, man is this a great track from ccMixter.org that was posted to the site on Friday.
Here at Camp BSWC, we are fond of our Sex and Space theme. This tune fits the bill on both accounts.
Starting with the very velvety guitar sample posted by Victor Fourstones, along with the luscious spoken words from Marika, aka essesq, Spinmeister pulls together an extremely sexy number that is so hot you might forget the summer humidity. At least I did. [Update 7/23/08: The preceding paragraph is in error. Marika is responsible for "imádlak" and essesq bringing the 'pella to the table. I regret the error.]
This selection should definitely be in consideration for the Wakka Chikka, Wakka Chikka, Porn Music for the Masses, vol. 3 (if one ever materializes).
