Download part one, featuring Loïc Boyer, mp3, 45 minutes.
Tracklisting and info from our guest, Loïc Boyer:
Electric Callas, Winner (untitled EP 1981)
Electric Callas was a late 70s french punk band, but when it was time to record their second (and last) single, they turned to this supercool Amanda Lear-esque white funk.
The Glove, Perfect Murder (Blue Sunshine LP 1983)
The one and only recording from Robert Smith and Steve severin's side project. Rare and beautiful.
Yoko Ono, Let The Tears Dry (My Man 7' 1982)
Strange beatbox-meets-gospel track, haunted by the death of the loved one.
The Royal Family & the Poor, Art On 45 (Toxic LP 2005)
Originally a 1981 Factory Records EP, re-issued on the fantastic Toxic compilation by freaks Uncle O & Solo. Punk + P-Funk = P-Punk?
Morplay, Check Your Pulse (Electroclash LP 2002)
Perfect fake old school electro hip-hop. Not much clash in this electro, but it's alright this way.
Station Rose, Eclipse (Live @ Home 2 EP 1999)
I met the "best multimedia band in the world" (their words) while I was supporting their act one night. They gave me that record after beeing so amazed by the fact that I could play Psychic TV in an electro set. They sound quite Chris & Cosey themselves, don't they?
Freeez, I Dub U (I O U 7" 1983)
One day, latin hip-hop will rule the world again. All praises due to Arthur Baker and Jellybean Benitez.
Fantastic 5 MC's live (Hip-Hop Funk Dance Classics vol.1 LP 1991)
This is not a record, this is history!!
Buggles, I Am a Camera (I Am a Camera EP 1981)
To be honest I bought this one for the cover, and was a bit disappointed by the music the first time I listened to it. But by now it's one of my favorites, with its epileptic bassline, and its cold cold mood…
Konk, Elephant (The Sound of Konk LP 2004)
Another band who got their first recording issued by 99 Records, like Y Pants, Liquid Liquid, or ESG. The hell of a scene!!
Guillaume Fédou, Ce Job Est Pour Moi (Ce Job Est Pour Moi 7" 2003)
Damn! I'll never understand why this track never became a hit, remixed by a bunch of hip producers, etc. But I guess it's not too late!!
Castle D., Just Saying Fresh Rhymes (The Best Of B-Boy Records LP 2002)
I used to love this track, even when I hadn't seen Assault On Precint 13 yet. John Carpenter rules!
Psychic TV, New Sexuality (A pagan Day LP 25th december 1986)
A grrrreat album, filled with marvelous songs. I play it as soon as I can, in any set, there's always a song that can match the mood. Thanks to Olivier Hahn who bought plenty of Psychic TV records at the right time, and who gave 'em to me when he turned to eighteenth century music.
Big thanks to Loïc Boyer of Rouen, France for two things: First we can thank him for the new look of this website. He designed the banner and really made the radiozeroradio page look fresh. And second he has recently published a fantastic limited edition book called Rythmes Magnétiques: Dessins, Signes et Icônes Rassemblés Subjectivement wich means something like Magnetic Rythms: Drawings, Signs and Icons Subjectively Gathered. It's a visual universe inspired by the music you can hear on this mix. Totally early '80s with the reminisence of Vivienne Westwood. And in addition to this book he has put together this awesome mix which out-radiozeros me! I'm gonna have to get another job and buy up all these records now.
This is the A side of his mix tape (that is actually available on cassette tape!). It's like the introduction to an amazing art party. I'm listenting to this expecting Jean-Michel Basquiat to ring me up and tell me that he and Bowie are dropping by in an hour. But that's a ghost story for another time...
The book is limited to 100 copies, and 20 pieces will be sold with the mix on a vintage BASF tape M. Boyer found at the flea market the other sunday. The price for the book is 4€ for the regular edition, 5€ for the limited edition with the original cassette tape mix. Yeah you have the mix on your computer now, but what about the real thing? The hard copy.
