Cool and Strange Music Countdown – Jan. 29, 2015 – Oleg Kostrow, Jimmy Bo Horne & Kim Jung Un, Milky Edwards & the Chamberlings

2016年1月29日 / 4 Comments

We’re back to Cool & Strange Music for Jan. 29, 2016! And do I have some strange and cool stuff for you today.

First up, is Oleg Kostrow. Oleg Kostrow is a very prolific Russian synth & sample artist, and the member of the Messer Für Frau Müller duo, and Messer Chups. He mixes modern beats with cool & crazy samples.

#3) Oleg Kostrow – Bukva F https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldyZ-Pdo418

And speaking of people from the East, at #2 is also a guy from a faraway land. It seems that North Korea has (or hasn’t?) blown off a hydrogen bomb. That puts our #2 song in the news this week. North Korean military propaganda videos are very boring (as are all military propaganda). So the creator of this video took the footage and tried to sync it up with some delicious disco groove (Jimmy Bo Horne – Dance Across the Floor). It’s really funny in places where it looks like the editor had it almost in sync. It’s worth several laughs. Check it! The artillery firing off in unison with the trumpets towards the end is hilarious!

#2) North Korean People’s Army Funky Get Down Juche Party https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwoSFQb5HVk

Finally at #1, Milky Edwards & The Chamberlings. Did a a gospel group record an album of cover versions of all the songs on David Bowie’s “The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars” album in the 1970’s?

On YouTube you can find three videos of someone playing songs from this album (that doesn’t exist) being played on a record player (with record noise added for special effect). The videos were uploaded in early 2012 and recently they started to draw attention (you can also check out the very basic website: www.milkyedwards.com).

Milky Edwards and the Chamberlains

Milky Edwards and the Chamberlains. Track listing: Starman, Suffragette City, Moonage Daydream, Five Years, Soul Love, It Ain’t Easy, Lady Stardust, Star, Hang Onto Yourself, Ziggy Stardust, Rock N Roll Suicide.

Who created these songs (and videos) and why? No one seems to know. Whoever created them, did an excellent job. The recordings are top quality professional. The only thing I know for sure is that the album cover is definitely not from the 1970s because it uses Mojo Standard font (which didn’t exist until 1990!) The font is altered – easily done on a computer – I do it all the time. Besides that, there’s not much else. Oh, there is a rumor that this could be the hi-jinks of David Bowie with Luther Vandross from the Young Americans period. I have to admit that, yes, the singer does sound a bit like Luther Vandross. Check Luther Vandross and compare voices here, if you like (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmDxJrggie8)

#3) Milky Edwards & The Chamberlings – Soul Love https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GlsNSWDVdM

Heck, while we’re here, I’ll link to the other two existing videos!

Milky Edwards & the Chamberlings – Starman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y115_2h4a68

Milky Edwards & the Chamberlings – Moonage Daydream https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvXLuYXPL94

Well that’s it for Cool & Strange Music for this week. Have a great weekend! – Mike in Tokyo Rogers

Top 3 Videos for Jan. 25, 2016! Killmama, Dukes of Hamburg, Ginger Wildheart and Courtney Love, The Sleaze-Aholics!

2016年1月25日 / 1 Comment

Welcome back after a 3 week hiatus. I didn’t go on vacation. I felt that the Top 3 wasn’t important enough due the the death of David Bowie.I’ve read where some people complained that those of us who were grieving for Bowie were ‘overdoing it.’ I don’t think so at all. My dear friend Kona Cindy sent me an article entitled, “Don’t deride those who are mourning David Bowie – this grief is serious and rational.” That article summed it up nicely for me:

“I am not coping, to be honest. Nor are many other people I know. I have never felt like this about any other public death and doubt I will again. What if there is never anyone else like him? My sadness does not mean I don’t care about Madaya or Istanbul. But this grief is serious and rational. Bowie was incomparable. Leave us be with it. There is always one damn song that can make you break down and cry. I am sorry if you never heard it. Because I did.”

That says it all as to why I didn’t post anything for these 3 weeks… Like almost every other radio DJ I know; we were in mourning.

I did, though, write my tribute to Bowie along with my eulogy here: Cool and Strange Music Countdown – Jan. 14, 2015 – David Bowie Tribute! (robot55.jp/blog/cool-and-strange-music-countdown-jan-14-2015-david-bowie-tribute/) Please check it if you want to see what I thought were the best Bowie videos ever.

Anyway, on to the Top 3… First up is a duo named “Killmama” from Florida with Rob and Sophie. They call themselves a “Garage, Blues” band. Here’s their Facebook: (https://www.facebook.com/dontkillmama/)

#3) Killmama – Bad Rep https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHgUdnVTwEU

At #2 is a band turned onto to me by the leader of Japan’s best Beat Band, Mr. Pan of the Neatbeats! This is the Dukes of Hamburg who bill themselves as “Germany’s #1 Beat Band!” Check them on FB: (https://www.facebook.com/DukesofHamburg/?fref=ts)

#2) The Dukes of Hamburg – “Sorry” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm12TEjNuqw

At #1 is Ginger Wildheart from the Wildhearts. This is really cool and it features Courtney Love of all people! Wow! Ginger Wildheart is coming to Japan in April and has asked to be a guest on my radio show “WTF?” (What the Funday?) on InterFM Sundays 8 am ~ 11 am. You kiddin’ me? Of course! This song is called “Honour” and it is the first single from his next album! Here is Ginger’s FB page (It’s new!) (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ginger-musician/124288874280920)

#1) Ginger Wildheart & Courtney Love – Honour (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrDtG_PMisk)

Finally our spotlight artist! Today’s artist is the Sleaze-aholics. They are a Hillbilly Punk Metal Southern Rock Sleaze trio from Indiana. They were introduced to me by the world famous Ron E. Fast who, despite rumors, did NOT die in the desert in Nevada. Formerly stories were swirling around that Ron had died and the police had yet to find his body, but they did find his abandoned car in the desert full of soiled women’s panties. In spite of that, Ron E. Fast assures me that he is, indeed, still alive and introduced us to this fine band as evidence. Here are the Sleaze-Aholics with their soon to be classic, “I Don’t Wanna Fight. I Wanna Fuck.”

The Sleaze-aholics? This shit is wild! Check them on FB here: (https://www.facebook.com/thesleazeaholics/?fref=ts)

Cool and Strange Music Countdown – Jan. 14, 2015 – David Bowie Tribute!

2016年1月14日 / 3 Comments

Welcome friends! It’s time once again for the Cool & Strange Music Countdown! It’s been a sad week this week due to the passing of one of the greatest stars of the 20th and 21st centuries. You all know I am talking about the death of David Bowie.

Bowie so influenced my life. When I was a teenager, David Bowie was just about all I ever listened to. I did listen to other music, of course, but no one ever touched my life or enthralled me like Bowie did. I wanted to be like him and even look like him.

He taught me that it was OK to be different and that everyone is special. I got high with him, laughed and screamed with him, sang with him and dreamed with him…

And, on Jan. 11, 2016, Bowie made me remember how to cry again.

This is the Cool & Strange Music countdown. And what could be cooler than David Bowie or stranger than he? Today, I want to share with you some of David Bowie’s music, art, fashions and some of the really fantastic and bizarre videos he made.

There’s so many great Bowie videos that I couldn’t possibly list them all. This first video is a great start as it has an interesting story. It was 1972 and David Bowie was breaking big in England. David Bowie was the first rock star of the seventies. Before him, all the bands were remainders from the sixties and the Vietnam War and the Hippie movement. Bowie came out with outrageous red hair, and androgynous look and spandex clothes. He looked totally different from all other rock stars. He appeared on “Top of the Pops” with the Spiders from Mars (His band from “Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars”). This was the moment the Bowie became a superstar. Watch carefully as he captured an entire nation of British girls when he points at the camera (at about 1:35) and sings, “I had to phone someone so I picked on you-u-u-u!” Every girl in the UK fell in love with him at that very moment because he was talking directly to them. A heart-throb not seen since the likes of silent film superstar Rudolph Valentino was born.

#4) David Bowie – Starman  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B5zmDz4vR4

In the late eighties, I was programming the music videos for a TV show here in Japan. When I received the list of possible videos that I could select from, I found this official version of “Jean Genie.” I inserted it into the playlist. Later, I would receive complaints from some people at the station for “playing too many old videos.” I also received massive accolades (mostly from women viewers) about this video and how, even after all those years, Bowie was still so fashionable and cool. I was redeemed. It’s still way cool now! Check it

#3) David Bowie – Jean Genie https://vimeo.com/61137000

Many Bowie videos were so artistically done that they belong in a category by themselves. Here is a classic Bowie track with the bizarre video that looks like something out of a dream. Pay special attention to the characters in this video. Who are they? Why are they there? What does it all mean? I especially was floored by the appearance of his “mom”(?) at about 3:12. It seems like an experience we all had in our lives; our mothers trying to convince us to change our ways. Or, maybe in Bowie’s case, she is trying to convince him to “come back to earth.” Wow! What an imagination!

#2) David Bowie – Ashes To Ashes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMThz7eQ6K0

Last night, as I lay in bed. I could hear my son practicing piano upstairs. He won second place in the All-Japan Piano Finals so he is no slouch on the keyboard. He will be playing at Japan’s version of Carnegie Hall in March. You can imagine the tears I shed when I heard him playing this next song and singing. He only plays classical piano, but I think, someday, it will matter that the first rock song he has ever played on the piano in his life is Bowie’s “Life on Mars.”

“Life on Mars” was directed by the world famous photographer, Mick Rock. I guess I can say that the closest I ever came to Bowie was that Mick Rock’s wife, Sheila Rock, a famous photographer in her own right, has also taken my photo! I think if there ever just one Bowie song I could take to heaven, it would be this. What style and fashion! What great lyrics and what a touching song.

#1) David Bowie – Life On Mars https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEgfckymRjY

Thank you David Bowie! I love you! Even in your death, you are with me and a guiding light to do greater things than myself.

See you next week!

Top 3 Videos for Dec. 27, 2015! John No Arms, Sunflower Bean, St. Tropez, The Neatbeats!

2015年12月29日 / 3 Comments

Time once again for the Top 3 Video Countdown! The Top 3 Indies Artists videos for Dec. 26, 2015.

But first, here’s a word from our sponsor (us): If you like this countdown every week, please come “Like” our Robot55 Facebook page (or friend us on Twitter or subscribe to our Youtube page). Thanks!

First up today is a “Heavy Rock Punk Metal” band from Brazil. Wait! What? “What is Heavy Rock Punk Metal from Brazil? Well, you are about to find out. The lead singer, Renato sent this to me and I thought “WTF?” Alright! A band member who actually sent me their music! OK! I’ll play it! Hats off to Brazilian Heavy Rock Punk Metal! Go “Like” their Facebook page or they might haunt your dreams: https://www.facebook.com/jxnxax/

#3) John No Arms – ”This Guy Is a Black Metal Maniac” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZAl0OFRKRc

At #2 is a band we’ve been playing on our Sunday radio show quite a lot! They are called Sunflower Bean. They are a trio from Long Island/Manhattan (I guess that’s somewhere close to New York City). They describe themselves as “Night Music.” I think this is way cool!  Go “Like” their Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/SunflowerBean/

#2) Sunflower Bean – Wall Watcher  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RplDJ08s8Y)

This week’s #1 is a band from Amsterdam named, “St. Tropez.” DIY magazine says, “…they give a glam touch to straight-up rock ‘n roll, mixing talk of being “unbelievers” with religion-shunning hedonism. Like previous efforts, the track comes mixed by Spring King’s Tarek Musa – the surest seal of approval required for amped-up goodness these days.”

#1) St. Tropez – Son of God https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mltdFjSPK1A

SPOTLIGHT ARTIST! The Neatbeats! The Neatbeats are one of, if not thee, best rock and roll bands in Japan! They are called the “Japanese Beatles” in some circles and douchebags think that is simply a cover for a copy band, but no way with these guys. The Netabeats are what the Betales would have been if they didn’t become hippies and drop too much acid.

The Neatbeats - Japan's Best Rock and Roll Band?

The Neatbeats – Japan’s Best Rock and Roll Band?

The Neatbeats just returned from a tour of Spain and they have fans all over Europe! Of course, their shows in Japan get sold out consistently! The Neatbeats will star in an independent Rock and Roll Horror film in Japan in 2016 (A Japanese Rock N Roll Ghost Story) so they are happening! I love this band! And they are all nice guys and are totally Indie and have the true Rock N Roll Heart! Come and “Like” their Facebook page! (https://www.facebook.com/theneatbeats/?fref=ts)

SPOTLIGHT ARTIST! THE NEATBEATS 黒いジャンパー (Black Jacket) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIP6AQuqNSM

2015年12月29日 / 3 Comments

It’s the last Cool & Strange Music Countdown for 2015! Welcome! I promise you that you will laugh and dig today’s tunes BIG TIME! (If you like this countdown every week, please come “Like” our Robot55 Facebook page (or friend us on Twitter or subscribe to our Youtube page). Thanks!)

Today’s first video is a sidesplitting number done by American comedian Eddie Murphy. This was a skit of Saturday Night Live whereby he parodies James Brown – and does a hilarious job of it too! It’s James Brown’s Celebrity Hot Tub Party! And now, here he is – the Godfather of Soul, and hot tub man number one – Jaaaaaaaaaaames Brown!

Eddie Murphy – James Brown’s Celebrity Hot Tub Party https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAJnpaFRrlw

Next up is an artist that also charted on my year end, “Mike (in Tokyo) Rogers’ Top 50 Best Songs of 2015 (With Music Videos!)” modernmarketingjapan.blogspot.jp/2015/12/mike-rogers-top-50-best-songs-of-2015.html It’s Messer Chups from St. Petersburg Russia!

#2) Messer Chups – Sex Euro And Evils Pop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLPBo3ItZ8g

On last week’s Cool & Strange Music Countdown, we got rave reviews for the hilarious video about Vladimir Putin! Thanks! But fear not comrades! This week we have another mind-bender about our favorite hero! This is pretty funny and some people might think I like bashing Putin so watch out for the surprise ending!

#1) PUTIN IS NUMBER ONE GREATEST PRESIDENT SONG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbBaSfgNJnE

Well that’s it for this week! Happy New Year and may all your dreams come true in 2016! See you next week! – Mike (in Tokyo) Rogers

Cool and Strange Music Countdown – Dec. 21, 2015 – Bennie Melwin, Cambodian Space Project, The Rebel Scumbags

2015年12月21日 / 3 Comments

We’re back to the “Cool & Strange Music Countdown.” Welcome one and all! If you like this countdown every week, please come “Like” our Robot55 Facebook page (or friend us on Twitter or subscribe to our Youtube page). Thanks!

Today’s countdown has a decidedly Rock and Roll edge to it. First up is an animation that is completely made up from still photos. This might be the best adaptation yet to Electric Six’s “Gay Bar” from 2003. In the Electric Six original, Abraham Lincoln was the hero of the video, but in today’s, Bennie Melwin has updated us quite a bit and uses Vladamir Putin! The creepiness, as well as the quality of the animation, just make it perfect.

#3) Bennie Melwin – Putin Depardieu Love Story https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORSgkBz09-Q

Next up is a fab band from Cambodia of all places. This band has several really good videos but I picked this one today because of all the foreigners in it. It reminds me (and inspires me) of all the great foreign bands we have in Japan. Srey Thy, lead singer of The Cambodian Space Project, was recently appointed as a Good Will Ambassador for UNiTE, a campaign to stop violence against women worldwide.

#2) The Cambodian Space Project — Have Visa No Have Rice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1oG4x2Y_HE

Finally, just in time for Star Wars is a band from Los Angeles that has been making waves and been getting airplay on the world-famous KROQ! The band is called “The Rebel Scumbags” and they describe themselves as a “Geek n Roll” band.This song is hot and funny! Just released on December 14, so it’s hot off the presses! Thanks once again to Kona Cindy for the hot tip!

#1) THE REBEL SCUMBAGS – I LOVE YOU (I KNOW) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99Xt_a_OqNA

Well that’s it for this week! May the farce be with you! – Mike (in Tokyo) Rogers

Time once again for the Top 3 Video Countdown! My favorite new Top 3 Indies artist’s discoveries for the week of Dec. 18, 2015.

At #3 is a new artist from Florence, Alabama. The group has six members that includes an accordion and glockenspiel and they make quite a delightful and interesting sound. Their Facebook page says, “We’re creepy…but in a good way.” Check it out. This is hot!

#3) Clara Belle and the Creeps – I Just Wanna Dance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbnLQecM0bY

At #2 is Ringo Deathstarr. They appeared on my radio show last week! Thanks!

And finally, our spotlight artist of the week! It’s our fave group from Osaka, the 50 Kaitenz (in English “The 50 Rotations”). “Where the heck have these badboys been on our countdowns recently?” you ask? Well, judging from this video, I guess they were in China! The 50 Kaitenz never cease to amaze me (as well as crack me up!) Confucius say, “You go ‘Like’ Facebook page now! Right now! Go!” (https://www.facebook.com/the50kaitenz/?fref=ts)

Cool and Strange Music Countdown – Dec. 15, 2015 – Hexstatic, Stan Freberg, Mary Schneider, The Fancs Brothers!

2015年12月15日 / 5 Comments

Welcome friends! It’s time once again for the Cool & Strange Music Countdown!

Today, first up is a song that is definitely on the “Cool” category. It is Hexstatic. Hexstatic is an English electronic music duo that formed in 1997, that consists of Stuart Warren Hill and Robin Brunson. Hexstatic specializes in creating “quirky audio visual electro.” This is MOST definitely quirky. I think this is brilliant art! We will have more from these two in coming episodes!

#3) Hexstatic – Auto  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPrT0Fzzwsg

Next up is a “Cool and Strange Music” classic. It’s by a guy named Stan Freberg. Stan Freberg passed away earlier this year on April 7, 2015. Stan was an American author, recording artist, animation voice actor, comedian, radio personality, puppeteer and advertising creative director, whose career began in 1944. He remained active in the industry into his late 80s, more than 70 years after entering it.

Today’s pick is a Freberg classic. He had a knack for doing quirky and insanely funny TV commercials as well as music. In today’s pick up track, Stan Freberg does both voices of a couple in love who go through difficult times and tragedy as well as making up again…. All with ONLY Stan doing all the dialogue for both our lovers, John and Marsha, AND with only saying names only, he goes through and entire conversation of love, betrayal and reconciliation! The engineers who recorded this when Stan Freberg was in the studio must have either laughed hysterically or thought they were witnessing an insane man. It’s hilarious. Check it out. Listen carefully!

#2) Stan Freberg – John and Marsha https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkfwmB8jeSU

At #1 today is yodeler, Mary Schneider. Mary Schneider is an Australian singer, songwriter and performer, who is a master at the classic Swiss Alpine style, she is best known for yodelling the works of various standards by many a classic composer. Listen to this. There are parts of her yodel where I wonder how it is humanly possible to do this and still breathe? (Especially check at 1:49 and 2:15 and 3:12!)

‪#1) Mary Schneider – Yodelling Overtures https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awp3-7EVM0Q

Incredible!!!!! I’m gasping for air just listening to it.

Today we have a freebie for Cool and Strange Music! It’s two guys known as the “Fancs Brothers.” This is an incredible story. These two guys are NOT professional musicians but they work at an internet company! They just decided one day, “Hey! Let’s make some songs!” and so they did. This video production is by us at Robot55 (Ken Nishikawa did the work… I was snoring on the sofa in the studio!) It blows my mind that two guys, who aren’t musicians, can make such a great (and amusing song)…. Just goes to show how far “just having fun” really can take an artist or a band, no?

If you love Shibuya in Tokyo, you will love this!

Spotlight: The Fancs Brothers – Welcome to Shibuya  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjdrHWGUoR8

Well, that’s it for today! Hope you have a great rest of the week and hope you stay Cool and Strange! – Mike Rogers

Top 3 Videos for Dec. 12, 2015! Messer Chups, Lazyeye, Ringo Deathstarr and Su Ko D Koi!

2015年12月12日 / 6 Comments

Time once again for the Top 3 Video Countdown! The Top 3 Indies Artists videos for Dec. 12, 2015.

First up is a band from St. Petersburg, Russia. One of the few bands that can crossover from the Top 3 Videos Countdown to the Cool and Strange Music Charts: Messur Chups (formerly known as Messur fur Frau Muller). This is Messer Chups with Chupacabra Twist. Here is their Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/messerchups/?fref=ts

#3) Messer Chups – Chupacabra Twist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Cn_5XimO2I

At #2 is a band from the Midlands in the UK, called Lazyeye. They were introduced to us by Peter118. Thanks Peter. Their FB pages says they “Usually respond within an hour” so go write something to them and see if that’s true. Oh, and don’t bother checking the URL they have listed for the band, it doesn’t work. Here’s the Lazyeye FB: https://www.facebook.com/Lazyeyeonline/info/?tab=page_info

#2) LazyEye – Heartbeat Know https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQD7nGxafgs

Finally, at #1 is Ringo Deathstarr. Tomorrow they will appear as guests on my weekly radio show tomorrow: “What the Funday?” (WTF?) Please come like our FB page here:(https://www.facebook.com/whatthefunday76.1)

Wikipedia says, “Ringo Deathstarr is an alternative rock band from Austin, Texas, which channels such diverse influences as Fugazi, The Cure, The Smiths, My Bloody Valentine, and The Velvet Underground.” Ringo Deathstarr are currently touring Europe and Japan! Here’s their FB page: https://www.facebook.com/ringodeathstarr/?fref=ts

#1) Ringo Deathstarr – Rip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQ187y5sH3E

While we’re at it with the female fronted groups, we’re finally to this week’s Spotlight Artist and it’s my favorite all-girl Japanese Punk trio: Su Ko D Koi (also featured last week!)  They just released their second album on Nov. 11, 2015 and have been performing at “In-Store” record shop events all over the place. I love this band! They need more FB likes! https://www.facebook.com/ssttddkk/?fref=ts

This is a classic of theirs from their former album. Both albums are fantastic! This is a video Ken Nishikawa and I made. Scroll down below the video to see the English lyrics! But it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand the lyrics! These girls are awesome!

FREEBIE! Su凸ko D凹koi – Busu (Ugly) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SE0s_D8G5hc

Well, that’s it for today! See you next week!!!!! Have a great weekend! – Mike (in Tokyo) Rogers
