		Mecca Bodega is an explosive world-class percussion ensemble from New York City featuring a cultural collage of global drumming and melodic sensibilities.
		Their international sound has been tempered by the melting pot that is NYC, and the music is full of urban influences that play tug-of-war with the tribal atmosphere that is inherent to their instruments.
		The result is polyrhythmic trance music that owes as much to the subways and city streets of America as it does to the plains of Africa or the outback of Australia.

		The birth took place at Mecca, on or about August 20, 570 A.D. The child was nursed according to Meccan custom, not by his mother, but by a Bedouin woman, and was reared by her in the desert.
		The story that near Bostra, he made the acquaintance of a Christian monk, tarried with him, and returned under his charge to Mecca, may be true; but it occurs in the midst of such strange tales of incredible wonders that it cannot be accepted as a certain fact.
		They were the guardians of the sacred temple, and this heretical son was beginning to shake the fidelity of his countrymen to the ancestral faith, of which that temple was the visible shrine.

		The other two longer pieces ‘Subultan’ and ‘Nawab fanatic’ form a continuum with a rubbery beat and crackling interference which is modulated with the beat, both have the harmonium and are separated by the 23 seconds of ‘Dishdasha’.
		Fatah Guerrilla offers ‘Shisla nain royal bidjar’ a bass heavy beat with a flute playing over the top, and Izlamaphobia provides a sitar-loop rising and falling in tone as the sped is manipulated over flowing hollow drumming of ‘The sari of cholera’ to close the set with another mood.
		With this is a harmonium-like instrument, pulsing packets of melody over the rhythm, and later a keyboard adds some touches, before it fades back into the opening pulse.

	Music and CDs - Mecca Bodega
		Mecca Bodega's Skin is an example of the pre-iPod days, the centuries when music was played for religious, magical reasons, when rhythm was young, primal and percussive.
		Instruments as varied as trap kits, dumbeks, beer kegs, talking drums, lead djembes, tablas, didgeridoo and the hammered dulcimer are used to great effect to build one unified motif of expression.
		Mecca Bodega focuses exclusively this time out on the richly textured, acoustic exotica element of their sound.

		Om Lounge Started from the San Francisco club night thrown by Om Records, focusing on the mid tempo atmospherics of dub, funk, hip-hop and jazz, this group of five collections, has had a massive influence on the state of electronic music.
		Focusing on exposing great talent in the chill-out genre, these albums move away from the four on the floor beats of house, and shift into lounge mode.
		Following it up is the harder edged "Umpire." This one brings a rawer feel, with its rough beats, rugged piano and "double edge triple edge" slicing lyrics.

	The Leonard Feather Scrapbooks - Charlie Parker
		The Savoy, once regarded as a jazz mecca and nicknamed "the home of happy feet," was the New York pied-a-terre of such bands as Teddy Hill's, Benny Carter's and the late Chick Webb's great swing group in the late 1930's.
		The phrasing was more involved, the tone a little more strident, and the pulse of each performance had a manner of swing tht seemed to owe nothing to any source.
		His use of grace notes and certain dynamic inflections were different from anything that had been heard on the alto, or on any other instrument.

		Atlanta police officers have used excessive force, including unjustified shootings and severe beatings, and have otherwise abused their power without coming before external civilian review and without punishment through internal department procedures, such that in Atlanta the performance of the police is now a controversial and divisive issue.
		The unusual aspect of this case is that the alleged beating was videotaped by cameras mounted on the police vehicles.
		One of the deputies eventually came forward to report the beating by Swansey, who, according to a Georgia Bureau of Investigations spokesperson, was known to have a serious drinking problem.

		Come, my friend, into the warm pulse of the bottom end of the pool, as two new releases of bass exploration – one a five-star reggae classic from 1980, and the other a nu-funk slammer – are the perfect antidote to the winter blues.
		I must admit that my heart skipped a beat recently, to see that Goldenlane Records was poised to release a deluxe CD re-issue of Lee "Scratch" Perry’s mind altering Return of the Super Ape, one of the most fundamentally groundbreaking albums of reggae.
		Later, in the 1970s, Perry’s backup band, The Upsetters, and his Black Ark studio forged the mothership mecca of deep vibrations, kin to the punk do-it-yourself scene of the same period, recording magical moments that are hard to fathom emanating from a twelve by twelve foot room of primitive equipment.

	TWAS 401: Christine Fellows, Mecca Normal, Tuuli
		Mecca Normal albums have always seemed to me to deliberately court this fate, song after song of Jean's grating voice and David's abstract guitar, but at the last minute they've always broken down and granted me one or two rock songs to rescue it.
		Ten songs on this album, couldn't they spare one for me? I've bought nine Mecca Normal albums, and I can't yet fill a single CDR with the songs that make me claim they're one of rock's most important bands.
		The Family Swan and Sleater-Kinney's One Beat came out on the same day, on the same label, and I wanted to be able to say that this is the bass-less, blade-voiced punk album every critic should be compelled to listen to.

		A skinny twentysomething artist dressed as Oedipus, eyes smeared with fake blood, and a bald woman, cigarette butts glued to her head, mingle with Tommy Hilfigered teenagers wearing exponentially oversized pants.
		The essence of the compositional technique is to take drum samples digitally lifted from jazz, funk, and hip-hop records, speed them up, rearrange them with computer editing tools, and lay them over sinewy bass lines moving at half the tempo.
		But even within that small scene, differences are evolving: Toneburst and Sessionz, for instance, are distinct enough in atmosphere and sound that they could be considered the two faces of Boston drum 'n' bass.

	Jihad Watch: How U.S. could be beat
		"These electromagnetic pulses propagate from the burst point of the nuclear weapon to the line of sight on the Earth's horizon, potentially covering a vast geographic region in doing so simultaneously, moreover, at the speed of light," said Dr. Lowell Wood, acting chairman of the commission appo9inted by Congress to study the threat.
		The commission, in its work over a period of several years, found that EMP is one of a small number of threats that has the potential to hold American society seriously at risk and that might also result in the defeat of U.S. military forces.
		The electromagnetic field pulses produced by weapons designed and deployed with the intent to produce EMP have a high likelihood of damaging electrical power systems, electronics and information systems upon which any reasonably advanced society, most specifically including our own, depend vitally," Wood said.

		Leadoff track “The Hours” begins with chunky muted guitar, but the xylophone and singing saw hold forth the promise of something in the vein of pscyh-country shoegazers Mercury Rev. Seventeen seconds in, though, the drums come crashing through, and that’s when their real M.O. becomes apparent.
		I’ve slowly regained the use of my legs after days spent in recovery from the 35 hours of car time logged between Austin and Minneapolis, where I learned, among other important revelations, that Alabama’s “Dixieland Delight” is hands down the best road song of all time and that sleeping is vastly overrated.
