As a spoken word artist, Cherrie Amour has taken her name to heart, speaking on matters of love in all of its facets, so it’s no surprise that her followup to her debut, Love’s Journey would be called ilovemesomewords.  A celebration of her inspiration, the 4 track ep is available on RPD via iTunes, beatport, nuloop, amazon, emusic

Check out the promo featuring the track, “I Choose”, and go to her myspace page and let her know what you think!

Little White Earbuds, one of the blog sites to reference for all that is worthy of your attention, has rated Mr. Parker’s musical tribute as the top reissue of 2009!  The ep was done in tribute to the late great Ken Collier, a Detroit DJ that many a “famous techno/house person” owe a great deal to.  His legendary club, Heaven, was a must for those in the know and to this day he remains a large figure in Detroit club music.  Who else made the list and why???  Click here and find out!

Yes folks, there’s no more famous quote concerning techno music than Derrick May’s “techno is like Kraftwerk and George Clinton stuck together in an elevator.”  And Kraftwerk has had a longstanding relationship with the Motor City, so when the New York Times thought to do a piece on the iconic electronic band, it only made sense to get some words of praise from the likes of Juan Atkins and Mad Mike Banks!  Click here for the full article (and it’s a two-pager, so make sure to click for the second part as well!).

Title: DJ Dex @ Hysteria, Public Assembly, Brooklyn, New York
Location: New York
Description: “Hysteria” comes to Brooklyn as former UR mc and producer Robert Hood swings by the Apple to blow minds, while current UR Fugitive DJ Dex jumps on board to bring his own flavor of damage to the scene! The two powerhouses are joined by the NY techno vanguard in the form of THE Adam X!  I’m hysterical just writing about this…!!!!!  Time Out New York says…

And all we can say is…they’re HOT!

…and wait ’till you see them live…!!!

Yes, the cosmopolitan DJ, (posing here with Taiwan’s DJ Chicano) one of the more under exposed members of the UR crew, recently did an interview with Waakao, a blog dedicated to all things Taiwanese.  In his interview, each answer is punctuated with a video and while you won’t learn how to break the DaVinci Code, you WILL get a sense of why he’s one of UR’s more interesting characters!
