"Jungle Exotica" series

thanks to the "Rockin' Bandit" folks for this set.

i have no idea what the compiler thot the theme of this comp was supposed be. it seems to be a combo of surf, garage band, strip joint and pool hall music. [*grin*] some are novelty songs that i wish weren't there, but most are enjoyable if you want some rather rowdy background music for your next bull session.

as far as i can tell there are only these two.

Jungle Exotica, Vol. 1
Jungle Exotica, Vol. 2

"Las Vegas Grind" series

thanks again to the folks at "Rock It!".

a collection of las vegas stripper music. some of the album covers are pretty good pokes at the stereotypical guy who attends strip joints [*grin*] while the others are stripper pics. the music is classic for the venue. about 20% is instro and about 10% is noticeably noisy.

enjoyable stuff if you like the style. i do! [*grin*]

"Bump Jump Jive" series

thanks for these go to the folks at "Rock It!'.

a really fun series of jive/r&b/swing/jump blues/whatever-ya-wanna-call-it music. [*grin*] i think of it as swing since that what i enjoy most. it's pro'ly better to think of it as r&b, tho. dance music with a beat to dance WITH someone instead of AT someone.

french "Instrumental Guitar" series

this one it thanks to the folks at the "ROCK IT!" blog.

an odd but enjoyable set of french instrumental tunes. mostly guitar oriented but a few that are more focused on other instruments - drums for instance. there is at least one NON-instro tune. [*grin*] some are surf-ish but most are more of the pop style in my opinion. fun stuff!

thanks to Kogar for this series.

the series is comps of songs mentioned by lux & ivy [the cramps] in books and interviews. they are being re-done by the original comp-er with better sound and better artwork. the series is at 15 and there are apparently gonna be more - he's already posted a preview of the artwork for #16. [*grin*]

the volumes on the wfmu site are the original versions. the ones on kogar's site are [i think] the reworked versions.
