Waxing Deep--November 8, 2008
It's been over half a year since our last show! That is nothing short of a tragedy. We intend to compensate for our negligence with tonnes and tonnes of good music.
It's been over half a year since our last show! That is nothing short of a tragedy. We intend to compensate for our negligence with tonnes and tonnes of good music.
After eight years, Waxing Deep's presence on campus-community radio comes to a close. The show will continue largely unchanged as a podcast, but we thought we should use this last CHSR show to celebrate all the classic Waxing Deep cuts that defined us over the years.
Classic Waxing Deep
DJ Ferrari mixes South American psych and funk
Rich Haupt of Rockadelic Records selects nearly 90 minutes of psych heat
Two hours of the classic Waxing Deep mix-up!
This week we make up for two pre-emptions by playing as much music as we can fit into two hours and still meet our CRTC obligations
This week we explore some pre-revolutionary Cuban sounds, introduce a very rare and extremely choice Cuban version of "Vehicle"--destined for vol. 2 of "Si, Para Usted"--and enjoy Latin selections from Joe Tallarico.
Waxing Deep returns for 2008 with the regular mix-up
Tom Wieland shares some selections and a little Tribe jazz.
Adrian Leach generously provides another Happy Jazz session that we follow with a thirty minute cosmic excursion from the Unobstructed Universe.
Reynaldo shares an hour of bugalu and we showcase the infamous Matthew Larkin Cassell LP. The regular mix-up follows. Not to be missed.
Nothing more than as much good music as we can fit into two hours (including three tracks from the Dancer's Inferno LP
Japan’s Black Vinyl Junky shares a selection of his favourite “rare-grooves”—16 extremely rare, storied, and obscure tracks. It’s a master class in Japanese funk collecting and a treat for people interested in finally hearing the likes of Mike Taylor, Marvin Whoremonger, and the Sidewinders. We follow Black Vinyl Junky with some jazz, disco, bossa, and mpb, which is to say the regular Waxing Deep mix-up.
This week it's further explorations of recorded Canadiana, a jaw-dropping new Cuban funk discovery, some classics, and the regular Waxing Deep mix-up.
Paul Goncalves of Superfly Records shares “Nasara”, a mix of African, Central American, and Caribbean music. Check the track listing for more details. We follow with some quirky singles from Canada and abroad, including an infectious white label version of “Down by the River” by The Bells.
A four month hiatus means an embarrassing backlog of music to share! We start with selections from our favourite recent compilations, including offerings from the Numero Group, VampiSoul, and Votary. A tribute to the late Doug Riley follows and then jazz, some obligatory Cuban cuts, and the regular Waxing Deep mix-up. Enjoy!
It's classic Waxing Deep: two tracks of previously unreleased Webster Lewis (courtesy of the good people at Plastic Strip), fun with obscure Canadian singles, some excellent Israeli jazz by The Platina, and much more.
The infamous Reynaldo offers a glimpe into his Latin collection with an exclusive mix for Waxing Deep. With the remaining time we share a noteworthy cut from Ronnie April, a funky track from the storied Klute OST, and some bugalu.
DJ Bongohead aka Pablo Yglesias shares his "Las 4 Culturas" mix: selections of Latin funk, soul, bugalu, and psych. Heavy!
It's another two hours of classic Waxing Deep! Superb, sometimes overlooked music from the world over with a mini-feature on the productions of Ben McPeek.
Adrian Leach provides another Happy Jazz session, which we follow with a quirky mix-up of bossa, psych, funk, and jazz.
This week we bring a superb exclusive mix from DJ Yosaku filled with monster jazz and funk selections. We also commit to more timely updates to the podcast!
This week we meander through obscure Canadian prog, Italian jazz waltzes, Romanian scat vocals, island funk, a little Sussex fun, some disco, and a great deal more.
Paulo of superflyrecords.com brings a mix of funky obscurities during hour one. We follow as best we can with a selection Brazilian records that have been on the top of our ‘to play’ stack for much too long.
We celebrate the release of "Si, Para Usted", our compilation of Cuban Funk on Waxing Deep Records, with some heavy tracks from the album. Pysch, garage, jazz, and Brazilian music follow in classic Waxing Deep fashion.
Waxing Deep eases into 2007 with a mix from the talented DJ Catalist and our first ever, much anticipated playlist!
Last week we had so much fun keeping the entire show to ourselves that we decided to postpone General Eclectic's guest mix and do it again! And so we happily, if somewhat selfishly, present two eclectic hours of classic Waxing Deep.
As the pile of records we have yet to air towered above us, it seemed like a good time for a classic Waxing Deep. We shelved the guest mix for another week and settled down in the studio for two hours of good music. The selection is as eclectic as you’ve come to expect; we slide between jazz, funk, Brazilian, and fusion and had a blast doing it.
San Francisco’s DJ Ferrari, a Silicone Valley executive by day and über-collector by night, provides an outstanding Afro-Brazilian mix for the first hour and a half of the show. Even jaded Brazilian collectors will appreciate the intelligence and deftness of Ferrari’s mixing. Hour two--what there is of it--features eastern jazz, some funk, the obligatory Cuban track, and another brilliant cut from Augusto Martelli’s “Black Sounds From White People”.
