Dusk Dubs returns with another incredible journey through sounds. As always, our guest provides us with music that has a special place in their memories and in their souls. Music that moves them, that invokes images of sunrises, sunsets, good times and good people. We then play each record, in full, giving it breathing space and allowing it to shine.

This week we invite Havoc to the DuskDubs Family.

Hailing from Belgium, Jim has been a vinyl collector since the mid 90s - loving all things old school jungle, hardcore, breakbeat and early drum & bass, alongside a keen exploration with all kinds of electronica, jazz, soundtracks, downtempo, instrumentals, ambient and everything in between.

"First I would like to thank the Dusk Dubs crew for inviting me. My selection contains 21 tracks, first half will be dedicated to Belgian bands and producers from back in the days until now. Expect a beautiful mess of jazz rock fusion funk but also electronics ambient soundtrack and instrumentals or library stuff.

Hope you enjoy it."

Tracklisting

Mad love for instrumental tracks, this one is taken from the legendary jazz-funk LP “Funky Tramway” released in 1975.

2) Stuff. - Java
Cutting edge fusion jazz from Belgium, experimenting with synths, beats and jazz - go see them live.

3) Elko B - Cochon Torrero
Very surprising debut and solo album by Belgian jazz guitarist Elko - Blijweert, Combining synths, weird soundscapes, ambient and bitter sweetness.

4) Condor Gruppe - Saraba
Straight from Belgium, Ennio Morricone on guitar - very soundtrack minded, new stuff from 2018.

5) Warhaus - Beaches
Instrumental track by this Belgian indie rock band - credits to Max Berlin.

World famous latin funk band from Belgium, slow swing covered with horney vocals.

7) Peter Laine and his Musical Sound - Tiger Walk
Peter Laine, Belgian composer and orchestra leader releasing stuff late 60’s.

8) Nordmann - No Holy Feet
Belgian jazz rock band with heavy sax, this tune ends in organised chaos.

9) Marc Moulin - From
Belgian composer and founder of Placebo with an ambient track of his fusion breed “Sam Suffy” - stuff from ’75!

10) Melanie De Biasio - With Love
This time with the absence of Melanie’s silk voice, pure instrumental jazz from Charleroi, Belgium’s darkest and industrial city n°1 - must love

11) Normdann - Jumanga
Stunning track from their first experiments in jazz rock on “Alarm!”.

12) Georges Hayes And Philarpopic Orchestra - Concerto For Right Foot And Orchestra

Instrumental funk song, this will blow you away - Belgian stuff from the 70’s.

16) Youssef Kamaal - Black Focus
Incredible opening track of the Black Focus album from the UK Jazz scene.

17) Wagon Christ - Perkission
Typical Luke Vibert track combining breakbeats, downtempo, jazz and samples like only he can. 2001 boys and girls, this might be the most dance floor inspired track of the selection.

18) Hidden Orchestra - Strange
Taken from Night Walks and long time sold out - cinematic jazz in the vain of The Cinematic Orchestra, UK !

19) Nonkeen - Back and forth
German friends picked up old recordings and started experimenting again, released on the Belgian R&S label, experiments in ambient, soundscapes and downtempo - highly recommended (both albums by the way).

20) Massive Suits Quartet - Pigeon and swan
Spaced out, slow burn jazz from France.

21) The Heliocentrics - Pretitle
Lo-Fi track by the legendary Heliocentrics, taken from the documentary about the American drug-counter culture “The Sunshine Makers”. Trippy downtempo !!
