Tom Hooker - Dove Andiamo
Smooth Boogie time! The title means something like “where we’re going”. Unfortunately the Italian for hooker also means hooker in English…* (I)

Francis Bebey - Coffee Cola Song I love songs about beverages. (I)

Mantronix - King of the Beats
The song of the day because we danced to it behind our desks and because it needs no words. (P)
Joy Division - Transmission
This is often the soundtrack to my late night bike rides, high speed through empty streets. It all sounds more depressing then it actually is. (P)
Aaliyah - We Need a Resolution
Speak your heart, don’t bite your tongue…
If you guess right who the other two in this Hilfiger ad are, I’ll bake you a cake. (I)

Rain, coffee, but a little energie packed in there, somewhere. (P)
Arthur Russell - Make 1, 2
I have a smile on my face. (P)
Liliental - Wattwurm
This band features Asmus Tietchens. Lately, everytime I have DJ Assaults ‘Ass ‘n’ Titties’ in my head, I imagine the lyrics being Asmus Tietchens in stead of Ass ‘n’ Titties.
Anyway…. enjoy. (I)

Max Roach - The Drum Also Waltzes
“Less is more”, a lot with little: both are not the same. Catch them unified. (T)
Dudley Perkins - Money
If you are going for some money you might as well do it funky, which makes it harder and more satisfying. (P)
Carl Craig - No More Words
(T)
Hype Williams - Get Choong and Look at the Sky
I like it when simple things like titles of songs leave you with questions. To answer the two questions you’re probably having regarding this title:
-No, this is another Hype Williams
-It means being buff or good looking
(I)
Julie Andrews - My Favorite Things
It’s good to be reminded, either by song or by the things themselves. (T)
Sylvi Foster - Hookey
One of the greatest italo tracks ever. Great tempo, dark synths and nonsense lyrics sung in a thick accent. And, FYI, the title means ‘an unjustifiable absence’. (I)
Jan Akkerman - Angel Watch
Like ‘live’ music a record must be played. How far will you take it? (T)
Black Sabbath - Planet Caravan
Music Television almost made us forget about the music. (P)
