Deep House Music: Schmoov! – Exchanges

March 62010

The Cosmic Lounge presents Deep House Music: ‘Exchanges’ by Schmoov!.

“A group of Nottingham residents who met back in 1997 whilst playing in a funk band and decided that they wanted to combine the live performance aspect of a band with the sounds that house music incorporated. Their debut album ‘While You Wait’ was released in October 2001, around the time that they were supporting on Groove Armada’s UK tour. They are probably best known for their single “Destination” on DiY Diversions and their remix of A Million Sons’ “Misty Blu”.

They are currently involved in the running of the Winding Road Records label.

Trip-Hop Music: Thievery Corporation – Until The Morning

December 212009

The Cosmic Lounge presents Trip-Hop Music: ‘Until The Morning’ by Thievery Corporation, feat. Emiliana Torrini.

“Thievery Corporation is a Washington DC-based production and DJ duo consisting of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton and their supporting artists.

Their music can be characterized as downtempo/electronica with influences of dub, acid jazz, indian classical and brazilian styles fused together with a lounge aesthetic.

Thievery Corporation is on the Eighteenth Street Lounge record label named after the swank DC club owned by Eric Hilton, but several of their singles and EP’s appear on the 4AD and !K7 labels.

In 2002, they released The Richest Man in Babylon on their ESL label. This fifteen track album is similar in sound and timbre to The Mirror Conspiracy and features performances by vocalists Emiliana Torrini, Pam Bricker, and LouLou.

Indra, the third track from The Mirror Conspiracy, was featured in the opening shots of The West Wing season five episode Gaza and in an MTV(India) promo for the programme Non Stop Hits.

The group also received support from Scrubs star, Zach Braff, when Braff used the title track on ‘Lebanese Blonde (1998) on the soundtrack of his film Garden State. This resulted in boosted sales for the group after the film’s release.”
