Hi, I'm Nobu and these are some of my favorite songs~a never ending mixtape. Dance, slam, chill...hell, click your fingers while kickin' back in the futon, if that's what you're into. And, YES, buy the music! Support the band! Liner notes, record jackets and smokey clubs ARE cool!

Emerald, Sapphire and Gold



ESG
Erase You
A South Bronx Story CD (buy from Forced Exposure)
Universal Sound 2001

The four Scroggins sister plus cousin Tito. Sparse, minimalist funk. This song is from 1991's self titled 2nd LP, parts of which are compiled with their more well known earlier releases on the Universal Sound CD. Are still together, they put out a CD on Soul Jazz a few years ago.

When's the last time you liked a song with a guy barking like a dog?

Bonus song!
To commemorate !!!'s first Tokyo show tomorrow, here's a song from their debut 7".



!!!
The Dis-Ease
The Dis-Ease/The Funky Branca 7"
Hopscotch 1998

You can still hear their punk/hardcore roots. Doubt they'll be playing this one tomorrow.

Endnotes
1. Check out Something I Learned Today... Great stuff focusing on punk/garage/hardcore. Christ On A Crutch! Haven't heard that name in ages.

2. Finally updated the links. Thanks again.
