Researcher Rusty David, of St. Louis, suggests that while the details of the current ballad support the Frankie Baker/Allen Britt story, in fact the ballad predates this murder, and describes a killing that took place in the same red-light district of St. Louis sometime around 1865-70. When the Baker/Britt killing took place, according to David,…

(Image by Ian Miller) In our own special way, we recreate the cliché of the lone resuscitant marooned in a post-apocalyptic scenario– the current affairs perceptual chasm explained by a Purification Festival where we retreat to the innermost vaults of our manor and listen to hermetic discographies for months, we flip tarot cards too, disconnected…
Its been a while since we received correspondance from the fictive archaeologists at Dramatic records, so it is with great joy that we present a swansong tale from their Endless House archives. The track below is taken from the final chapter in the elaborate construct known as the Endless House which, if you are lucky enough to have not…
Another xxjfg blatant no mixing skills garageband compilation tape, it’s been a while. 20jazzfunkgreats – All watched over by machines of loving grace jones There is no tracklisting available, but you readers can crowdsource it in the comments box yeh?
Ghostly drums straight out of Lovecraft’s xenophobic nightmares open up a aural landscape already indistinct, shrouded with a smokey flicker straight from Limbo. Bashmore’s 2009 remix of the middle child from Deadboy’s already seminal U Cheated 12″, Heartbreaker, plays with the future or Future Garage. A Future that came and went, a future that now…

Here at 20JFG we like dance music. You may have noticed. We like many forms of dance music, many of which you’d have a hard time dancing to. Which is probably why it’s not a good catch-all…although it’s no more or less descriptive than Bass. But I digress: Legowelt’s latest arrives via Greek label…
Gaia’s sister is made of concrete and chrome, and she has two faces. One face has a name, its name is Jane of the mixed use and the vibrant neighbourhood. The other face doesn’t have a name, it has many names (which is the same thing), you will see them graffitied in cul-de-sacs and tattooed…

Where we resolve the information paradox (i.e. causality potentially being messed up by the scrambling effects of black holes) by describing a process where quantitative information loss in one part of the galaxy is compensated with qualitative information gain in a different part, thanks to the wilful arts of creativity, artistry and intellectual achievement of…
20jazzfunkgreats has, over its seven years of operation, groomed a ‘mole’ in the offices of CENTRAL, the super-intelligence group that delivers total awesomeness to the attuned few. Our sneaky spy has lain dormant, waiting for a moment of desperation where his services (and indeed, his life) may be required. That moment is now. {Note that…
Our first delivery from Parker’s Choro-Flora arrived promptly in it’s greasy wooden crate sometime before 8am. It’s sides straining with the weight of soil and soundproof packing material. We’d spent nearly all of our accumulated Altered Zones money (which had lain dormant in a Swiss account for just such an occasion) on this particular plant…
