For all you seekers out there

Featuring:

Florene & Miracles Club

A New Year begins, a New Year where 20jazzfunkgreats will continue treading the echoey halls deep in the heart of the rocky mountain where a wealth of holy grails rest, of all sizes and materials, overflowing with pristine water, scented wine and translucent liquids over which glittering fairies hover with an emerald twinkle in their…

Best of 2009 #5: No Face

Featuring:

Darkstar, Hyperdub, LHF & Subeena

Trying to figure out what the labyrinthine UK dance scene was all about this year was like trying to figure out what the man with no face might have looked like. Basically, an interesting diversion, but a rather pointless one nonetheless. More so than ever dubstep sounded like a hyperactive mutant techno hybrid, the Autonomic…

Best of 2009 #4: Love you bastards love…

Featuring:

Digits & Petit Mal

The beast that is 20JFG has always had one head with an abnormal taste for that which its other heads should conventional abhor.  Yet the 20JFGbeast cares not for convention.  And so it is then that we continue this end of year round up with a survey of that which could or most definitely should…

Pink Stallone-20jfg Mixtape

Featuring:

Pink Stallone – 20jfg Mixtape Recorded live at the reception of our unholy union to the cold blooded chicks of the summer, we lost the scroll containing the tracklist after a scuffle broke out between one of us and a rather unconvincing man in a lizard costume, who turned up claiming to be one of…

Best of 2009 #3: All is Love

In this post we celebrate the many savants of rhythm who look into the prism of the past, and see the future. In a year emulating the grotty and overcast economic climate of 70′s New York, where we were continually perused by a string of cosmetified gangs for a murder we did not commit, our…

Wrath of God

Featuring:

Mi Ami & Tense

//TENSE// travel to us via the ethereal medium of TommyBoy.  Hailing from what we can only surmise is an alternative concrete Texas permanently shrouded in a damp leather-black haze where all heat is absorbed by the giant solar panels used to drive the multitudes of synthesisers and drum machines slaving away underneath their blue silicone…

The Reunion Special

Hello. My name is Genuine Guy. One day, whilst lost in the dark forests of Neukölln I encountered a wise sage who entrusted me with a password. It was the password to a realm I once inhabited but had left behind, drawn away like a magpie, by the treasure of another. The treasure proved to…

Lightning Bolts of Truthful Beauty

In More Than Human Theodore Sturgeon posits the next stage of human evolution, one where those endowed with psychic powers blesh into each other in a Gestalt process where different capabilities become functions of a single living being: telekinesis for hands, telepathy for mind, teletransportation for legs, poltergeist for speech, Aspergers style awesome computational power…

Shrill House

Featuring:

Leno Lovecraft & MVSCLZ

Dance music was never supposed to be classy. Nevermind Italo. MVSCLZ’ music sounds as if, knowing everything he knows now, Michael Mann travelled in his Testarossa space machine back to 80s Miami, shacked up in a minimalistic condominium, left keys, wallet and pocket change configured in an esoteric arrangement over a mantelpiece of blinding white,…
