I LOVE IT !!!! AHHHHH!!!!!! DOPENEZZZ3000

Peven Everett has been an inspiration since I’ve got my first record of his at Goya Distribution on Kensal Road around 2002. After the Soul Tempura “Runaround/Good Lovin” 12inch on Diaspora I couldn’t get enough of his music. There’s just so many amazing songs of his. What a unique voice, musician and artist. ♥

I usually don’t do this, but I couldn’t resist in getting that pic! Dreams can come true: Beeing able to finally bring Omar and his lovely band over surely was that. Since a kid I love his voice, melodies and music. Thank you Omar – Music is life.

Guess I’m addicted to them hidden treasures.

What can I say…!!! Classic. Thank you Dim for putting it on your amazing Stones Throw Podcast.

Love his music. Tried to book him for a Patchwork Night at Stadtmusik Festival in Basel last summer, but it unfortunately didn’t work out in the end…
Watch out for his stuff!!!

Feeling his work a lot! “Got the Hearts In Home” 7inch from Dim that time. Tissues is so bittersweet and I loved playing it in some quiet sets or at home.
Check out his new record: No Need To Run (EP). I love it!!!

When I was in London this April, I missed Badu DJing at East Village, because it was sold out. A little consolation was the Worldwide Show featuring her.
Just when I was finishing Onra’s Jacket, I was listening to the show sewing and it made me feel real good. What a lovely journey.
It has been a while since I last took the time to listen to a Worldwide Show and it made me remember that Gilles Peterson has been an inspiration for a long time. With the Talking Loud Label, his night at Bar Rumba and of course the Worldwide Shows. Before my digital times, when I heard the new music strictly in the record shops, clubs, radioshows, MTV Yo Raps or MTV Soul, you surely could catch me writing down artists or track titels listening to the Worldwide Radio Show. Of course I would travel to the Worldwide Nights at Montreux Jazz Festival. Big inspiration right there. Always seeking for quality music. Very big inspiration for me to have a vision for my Patchwork Nights. Trusting my taste of music and believing in it. He showed me it’s possible!

Last weekend I ran into LEXX. He was exited and mentioned, that Gilles twittered the link to my blogg. As bad as I am at Twitter, I didn’t even see it for about 1 week! Thanks for letting me know mate! Of course this right here put a biiiig smile on my face! Glad you like Mr. Peterson et MERCI!

Here some lovely Sassy J Treasure’s I found the last 2 days on my fleamarket tours! The old russian Kelim is part of it too!! Silk foulard with such lovely colours, old ashtray for a little smoke, a wooden house, Inka Stone Head Talisman, South African Necklace, open mint plastic ballerinas and a lovely 30ies fantasy animal broche…. Never ending story….To be continued!

GQ live – What can I say? As my homies from Soul Sociedad would say: LA NASTRE!!! Check the dance moves of Keith “Sabu” Crier on the Bass! UUU you just want to get up and shake your thing! Steve Adorno on the drums is in A MAZE!!! Check him out…HAA!!! At 2:47 to 2:56 or at 3:14, heavy! Dark Gable on the key grooovin, Mr.Q at 1:15 …ahhh….Thank you Ben for showing me! ???

Thank you Tony for showing me this track – loooove it!!!

Just 1 week after having master teacher Moodymann at Patchwork Night, ONRA blessed us on the intimate Patchwork PopUp Session at Sous Soul Club!!! Playing a GREAT DJ Set, taking the Patchwork Crew on a dope musical journey: a truly original ONRA Selection making us all dance, whistle, scream and shout … !!! Thank you to all the lovely fam that came down yesturday, Sous Soul Crew and Arno for the DOPE set & playing back2back!!!

Thank you Moodymann for your amazing DJ Set!!! Steady bringing a killer selection and mixes. Simply mindblowing and sooo original. Dachstock Crew for your great work and support, Beryll for the sound, Miriam for the light, Cat for driving forth and back, Sabine for all your work, Fabien for your help with the Moody-Stage-Logo, Rotary Mixer & the warm up, Zukie for the intro, Bea for all the lovely fotos, PATCHWORK CREW for coming down – you know who you are!!! Patchwork Night was super packed and we all had such an amazing night! One love!

This wonderful lady inspired me with her shop at camden market. I walked in there maybe 12 years or longer ago. The smell of her incense & the steve wonder cover in there, her selection of clothes and the very special golden and silver sandals I’ve bought there over and over again. The other day at portobello market I was doing my thursday vintage shopping before heading to honest jons records. Suddendly I saw these lovely eyes of her and immediately remembered this Lady. I just had to take a picture for my blogg! Merci Chantal!

UUUU! What a sexy groove!!!

I looooooooooooove!!!! Kathy Rose’s work! Of course I was immediately blown away by her early video’s and animated films and her unique, pioneering performance work combining dance with film in the 1980-90’s. This is pure inspiration. Wow. Such a talented lady!!! Dont sleep on her!
