Groovement Presents Mondo Solar

Groovement Presents Mondo Solar

Groovement proudly presents its first show for Samurai FM - a blissed out collection of moods from Favourite Records' Sau Paulo contingent: Modo Solar!

Exploring jazz-funk and soul electrified by Brazilian rhythms, Modo Solar is comprised of composers, instrumentalists, producers and singers Gian Paolo La Barbera and Fabricio DiMonaco. Their first EP was released in 2008 on Favourite Records and contained massive dancefloor-fillers 'Sunshine Love' and 'Natural', including remixes from Patchworks.

"We write songs", explains DiMonaco. Keeping clear of samplers, and critical of the modus operandi of modern creative processes that privilege production instead of composition, the duo, influenced today by the jazz-funk, funk, and soul of North Americans (Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder), Africans (Hugh Masekela, Letta Mbulu), and Brazilians (Robson Jorge & Lincoln Olivetti, Tim Maia, Marcos Valle, Deodato, and João Donato), have recorded their own material with the collaboration of percussionists Juninho and Marcos Banana, and flautist Gabriela Machado.
Kick back: enjoy the sunshine love.

Presented by Agent J – this is the first show NOT on Unity Radio since Groovement started in October 2007 (three years ago exactly, numbers fans). Big plans are afoot for Phase Two of Groovement Radio, plans where Groovement can continue to support the thriving and inspirational music scene in Manchester and beyond, something which we would not have been able to do to our desired standard had we stuck within the restrictions of a proto-commercial FM licence. It also means we can bring the focus back onto Manchester at an international rather than solely local level, through podcasting.


For now, though, it’s back to basics.
GROOVEMENT // HOYA HOYA TAKEOVER JULY 2010
KUTMAH X JAMES T COTTON X JONNY DUB X ILLUM SPHERE
Presented by Agent J

KUTMAH is free. Released from holding two weeks previous to the show, he’s not allowed back to his home of Los Angeles and is currently resident in Manchester, UK. Here he talks a little about his experiences plus drops a bomb of a set. JAMES T COTTON aka Dabrye amongst other aliases was also in town and shares the love with a few exclusives.

JONNY DUB and ILLUM SPHERE hold down Hoya Hoya in Manchester, and regularly bring guests of the highest calibre through to the Groovement show.

Hosted by Agent J, Groovement broadcasts every Sunday on Unity Radio. Tracklist follows below!

Originally broadcast on www.UnityRadio.fm Sunday, 18th July 2010.
Groovement was blessed with the presence of Qool DJ Marv this session, after he flew in from New York to play at the launch of the new Trus’me album, In The Red, at Band on the Wall.

Marv has been playing the Friends and Family/Fat City parties in Manchester for many a year, even taking the vibe to New York for the Turntables on the Hudson party. Some interesting chat on his history with Manchester and his musical journey accompanies an impeccable choice of tunes for this podcast.

Qool DJ Marv is known worldwide for his unpretentious and open-armed approach to playing a set: have a listen to a grand list of mixes over at the Qool DJ Marv podcast site: www.djqoolmarvsounds.podomatic.com

Thank you Marv for jumping on board!
