MP3s

Here’s some music MP3s, in hopes that you keep coming back!

LEXIE MOUNTAIN BOYS – RRemix
The Lexie Mountain Boys are a Baltimore institution at this point. This is the RickRab faux-Gamelan remix for their 2009 European tour CD.

LATE SUMMER MP3
This is a Ricky/FoodForAnimals sleeper that was posted last year, but is such a lovely hazy (non-rap) sound that it begs to be heard every summer.

BEAUTIFUL SWIMMERS is MaxD (aka VultureV from FoodForAnimals) and the wonderful AriG, rescuing boogie obscurities from their massive collections.  “Lifeguards for the Vibe!”  Mouth-to-mouth Resuscitation, for sure.  Their debut 12″ is out now on FutureTimes records (VV’s dancefloor-friendly label). The video is by NY’s-finest Aurora and friends. Highly recommended.  Pick up a copy asap!

City

We met this rapper Bleubird in Berlin last year and played a few shows with him. He has a good attitude. Better than most people making music.
From wikipedia: “Bleubird is a rap artist originally from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA. He is known for his rapid-fire delivery, comic relief, lyrical wit, and freestyle ability.”
He’s tour now.
We’ve got a powerful new synthersizer and he requested the remix. So its bubbling synths everywhere.

THIS YEAR

Everyone around here is excited that Mi-Ami is coming through!
A year ago (can it be so long?) we FoodForAnimals were traveling all around the US with SanFrancisco rhythm-masters Mi-Ami. Only year later, and they’ve put out so many good records, on so many good labels, going for it.
If you havent heard their magic yet: find and listen asap!

LAST YEAR

Here’s a MI-AMI remix I did in preparation for last year’s (2008) tour.  This is one of my favorite remixes I have ever participated in, so download without caution or fear because this is straight-fire!  There is a fucking guitar solo!

Mi Ami – African Rhythms (Ricky Remix)

Oh, and also here is a fun flier I found in my archives (unused because Pissed Jeans canceled this show). This is from last year, so don’t go to Floristree on Valentine’s Day because that shit already happened!

From 2008

This is from 2008, I just wanted to show my skills in 2009.
