Bach, baile, Boulette Russe etc

In between CDs I have been listening again to some of the downloads I’ve enjoyed recently. Here are some thoughts.

J S Bach – Violin Partita No 3 – music of grace, joy and no little sensuality.

La Boulette Russe – Pas Cher! –How can something so musically ramshackle and incompetent can be so enjoyable? Best track is “Les Mechants”. There is a version of “Leo” on YouTube, but it’s rubbish and not worth bothering with.

Carioca Funk Club – “Inside Flaming Hotz” – Life-affirming and totally barking (literally, in one place). This is what I listen to if I need cheering up.

Mutamassik – “Doun Doun” and “BCH GYP” from That Which Death Cannot Destroy – intriguing, but I’m finding it a bit elusive at the moment.

Sorry about the lack of links: Blogger won’t let me add them at the moment.
