Kpop Devils

Let’s have a little Girls Generation in the morning. This is somewhat better than coffee as pretty girls are always better than coffee. No idea if this song means anything as I don’t speak Korean.

Sensual Love Song

Of course, the slow tempo hardly makes this ska, but the backing horns section and the syncopation hints towards it.

Whine and grind. A cool, cool stroker.

The Ska Flames

Why are Japanese ska bands so ridiculous? Is this how ska would’ve sound like if everyone still loved listening to it?

S.N.S.D FTW

Because CapitolSwell didn’t come back with some Kpop, I’m left to scavenge youtube for some SNSD. Here’s a song on their latest foray into the Japanese market, “Run, Devil, Run.” Unfortunately, it doesn’t highlight their legs.

Mash It Up

There’s a hole in your pocket! Paralyzer! Paralyzer!

Yes. This is the tune! If this don’t move you, I don’t know what to say. You may be dead. Get thee to a hospital then. Get two aspirins, call me in the morning, and we’ll get some Bloody Marys. It was a hard night. Last night. Feel so broke up today.

I Feel So Broke Up Today

Prince Buster! Prince Buster y’all. If you ain’t feeling this groove, then I feel sorry for you.

I first heard this tune as a cover on the Trojan Ska box set by the Specials/Beat. That’s a great box set and a great tune if you can purchase, purchase. That is all.

But don’t forget to get up and dance!

Just A Guy

Roots reggae goes beyond Bob Marley. I need to learn who, what, where, and why. The when is now! Damn. This is a clever groove. I am feeling it. Wish it were with the girls of my dreams.

Better Get Ready. Rock Steady!

It’s not always dub music here on my blog. You’ll occasionally get some rock steady. Now I can’t tell to much the difference between rock steady and ska. Don’t they sound a like? The riddim? Very, very close. Just trying to understand what the riddims are doing.

If you’re in your cube: Get up! Get up! GET UP! GET UP! You just have to move your body to the rock steady.

F yeah!
