I'm always cruising around the interweb, looking for interesting music on various blogs. I'll see or hear something out there that sets me on a path, a new musical journey.
This is the second time I've been prompted by myvinyldreams. I was prompted by them the second time this series appeared, here. At My Vinyl Dreams you'll mostly find 80s/90s vinyl (usually singles & EPs) with all the extra tracks & remixes that come with the singles releases.
DJjedredy (Primary School teacher in Manchester. Vinyl junkie & 80s nostalgia freak) posted several Faithless remix releases. Get them here & here.
I used to listen to Faithless a great deal in the late 90s/early 00s. As oft times happens, my listening pleasures changed. This great crew fell to the wayside only because of my lack of attention & shortness of memory. Eternally grateful for the prompt.
Faithless was, at its core: Maxwell Fraser, better known by his stage name Maxi Jazz, a British musician, rapper, singer, songwriter, & DJ (he died December 23, 2022 R.I.P.); along with Rowland Constantine O'Malley Armstrong known musically as Rollo; & Ayalah Deborah Bentovim, best known by her stage name Sister Bliss, a British keyboardist, record producer, DJ, & songwriter. In the studio, she & Rollo make up the production duo Rollo & Sister Bliss.
The group's first release, 1995s Reverence was a minor underground classic but failed to break into the mass consciousness. That changed with their next release, 1998s Sunday 8PM with it's break-out hit "God is a DJ".

ReplyDeleteHave you heard the sad news that Jah Shaka has passed away?
The No Roots instrumentals are an excellent alternative from Faithless, for sure.
ReplyDeleteAs to Jah Shaka, see next post. Thanks for everything.
