Lyre Le Temps - Prohibition Swing album review

Lyre Le Temps - Prohibition Swing incorporates the ragtime jazz and swing of the 1920s and electro swing of the 2010s in one album. Jazz meets electronic on this album. Lyre Le Temps always comes in swinging with these beautiful jazz masterpieces.


The title track Prohibition Swing was written about illegally drinking alcohol during the Prohibition era. Alcoholic beverages were illegal during the 1920s since that was the Prohibition era. Prohibition was the prevention manufacturing and sale of alcohol by law, especially in the United States between 1920 and 1933.

The title track Prohibition Swing incorporates the ragtime jazz and swing of the 1920s and electro swing of the 2010s. The title track Prohibition Swing uses mixture of turntableism over a set of loud thunderous Timpani drums and horn stabs.

The moment is soon. I can bring you there. The round of the moon is out and about. This means the moon can be visibly seen. If you have nothing to declare, come in this room. You'll be free to drink inside.

Will you be strong enough to stay here until noon? Spending all your cash out looking for booze. I know a pub. Let's look inside. Keep up the mood. Just a shot. Stay a minute and then move. If you think your life is too rude, you'll be free to walk outside.

But on the inside of this pub, there turns out to be something you and me would never dreamed of. People seem so happy and I feel so right. All you and me see are smiles and beautiful faces. That’s how we swing and drink and stop by late at night. We're hiding out. Don't get caught because it's prohibition.

The pub is noisy and full. It's a mess everywhere inside of this pub as there are no rules. Mens are playing cards and girls play them as fools. The smoke in the room leaves a cloud upon our shoulders and soon. You will feel why that liquor is good. That's what you will see inside


The Mask is an upbeat horn driven electro swing song backed by a lively guitar over an upbeat tempo, rhythm, and pace. The Mask is a tribute to The Mask character Stanley Ipkiss. The song takes place in the summer of 1943.

Hey, look at that pachuco in the zoot suit! Police are gunning after The Mask character known as “The Mask”. Blue and white mean war tonight. And there's no place for him to hide.

Marie better grab his jack and zip gun for him. And he’ll face no shame because tonight's the night he diеs for their name. He knows the cops living down that side. That is what the lyrics “The other cats livin' down eastside” are a reference to. So that's not a place to hide. The man has come for him.

4/5****!

Lyre Le Temps - Lady Swing album review

Lyre Le Temps - Lady Swing incorporates the ragtime jazz and swing of the 1920s and electro swing of the 2010s in one album. Jazz meets electronic on this album. Lyre Le Temps always comes in swinging with these beautiful jazz masterpieces.


Hold The Night is an upbeat electro swing song that is interestingly backed by a fiddle. That fiddle gives the song a country vibe. Think about it. An electro swing song with a country vibe. Or a country electro swing song. Hold The Night is based on a 1941 song by Dickie Mcbride & The Village Boys called Tulsa Twist.

I hope that no one can be something about love and admiration. They know about the lack hypothesis. And they know about awareness that could. So come on. I cannot a Veilon you must be, so share. I cannot even feel like you.


About The Trauma Drum is just an expression Lyre Le Temps used when they felt the beat was banging. About The Trauma Drum is an interesting electro swing song with an interesting backstory.

The band claims there are no lyrics to the song. The band says they called that “making yogurt” in French. Here is how the band “made yogurt” in the French language. By “making yogurt”, they were faking the English language saying some random words. Interestingly however when the band plays About The Trauma Drum live, they use real lyrics. The rhythm emits a noise like a verbalized keyboard slam.

One can wonder how the brain can make out meaning out of scrambled words to this song. The band claims there are no lyrics to the song. However that is not the case. There are lyrics to this song in spite of what the band says.

You got out off the shrink down
Because the strong is not your own
And so is off your come
About the trauma drum
About the trauma drum
You win another so we are orders
But I'm so to counter saucers
Let it cancel let he from
About the trauma drum
You singing like the way you don't had
That song set the microphone that gonna's gone
About the trauma drum
About the trauma drum
About the trauma drum
You got me handles on
Yes on that tower on
Bad as the number rage's on
Cross the gross is you gotta made some for some
But the song it have its wrong
And you feel for me and does
About the trauma drum
Get on
Off your strong's back
And now
And oh
About the trauma drum

About the trauma drum
Spill you the hammer not confirm card
Let all through the microphone
From your car future that's on
And less than

About the trauma drum
That the drum is back
Don't miss
Don't miss
Don't

4/5****!

Smokey Joe & The Kid - Nasty Tricks album review

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s Smokey Joe & the Kid! The Smokey Joe & The Kid - Nasty Tricks album is electro swing with hip hop flavor and techno soundscapes. The duo stay true to the jazz roots on songs such as Trippin’, Zazou, Marcluche, and Prohibition.


Trippin’ is an original song with production and vocals from Big Brown and the Puppetmastaz. This is the original gangster Big Brown representing the Puppetmastaz thing collaboration with Smokey Joe and the Kid.

About 20 years ago way down in New Orleans. A group of fellers found a new kind of music and they decided to call it... jazz! No other sound has what this music has. Before they knew it, jazz was whizzing around the world. The world was ready for a new blue kind of music.

These lyrics explain where the origins of jazz originated from.

'Bout twenty years ago way down in New Orleans, (that's right)
A group of fellers found a new kind of music (mm mm...)
An' they decided to call it... jazz! (ha ha ha)
No other sound has what this music has (yeah...)

Everything seems so cool when Smokey Joe stepped in the scene out West. But everyone is walking when an asshole is for breakfast. So Smokey Joe has gotta call him in this place sweet jackass. This is the cream of the crap. That's right. Watch your steps because showtime's over.

The Kid is aware of his mental instincts. His thoughts are so clear. So he can go to sleep with a clear conscience. He forgot that feeling that got him aggravated and loaded with stress.


Smokey Joe & The Kid sing about how Prohibition frustrating is and was on their song Prohibition. Prohibition was written about illegally drinking alcohol during the Prohibition era. Alcoholic beverages were illegal during the 1920s since that was the Prohibition era. Prohibition was the prevention manufacturing and sale of alcohol by law, especially in the United States between 1920 and 1933.

There may be famine and war. We can go back to the Stone Age. We can take the nuclear bomb. I’m ready to suffer all the misery. But the only thing that pisses me off is Prohibition. The only thing that pisses “some people” off is Prohibition. Follow Smokey Joe’s motto that accompanies him on Earth. "Life is so much better after two drinks"

The song gets sexually explicit with these lyrics: “As long as I end up in the breasts of a fat woman/The Arctic can melt with its Huskies/“I dab it as long as there's ice in my Whiskey”

Smokey Joe & The Kid pay homage, tribute, and respect to fellow pioneer electro group Caravan Palace with these lyrics. “I’m going to make you "Pouêt-Pouêt"/And to put you on electro without a clash/I would puke in the Caravan Palace/We'll see who the kings of frills are/When in your freezer I'm going to come to do "Glug-glug"/We'll see who the Fox-Trot Kings are/When I come without panties return your trailer!”

They also get in touch with their religious side and spiritual side with these lyrics. Notice how the lyrics make reference to the Islamic religion and religion of Christianity.

God is Muslim
I convert tomorrow
If he lets me do the American Ramadan
And if he is a Christian
I would go say the Offices
Kneel on the Cross
To siphon the blood of Christ

Smokey Joe & The Kid come clever and witty with their virtuoso rhymes with these lyrics: “As long as I end up in the breasts of a fat woman/The Arctic can melt with its Huskies/I dab it as long as there's ice in my Whiskey”

You want worms under glasses
And see behind the scenes
be upside down
Still square


Smokey Joe & The Kid give us the glorious opportunity for them to show their love, fixation, and appreciation for swing music on the song called Zazou. That Zazou Zaz came to town when Smokey Joe came into town. The song is blessed with modern electronically produced beats.

One thing that makes this song very disturbing, eyebrow raising, and interesting is the disclaimer by the BBC which is: The BBC would like to announce that the next scene is not consider suitable for family viewing. It contains scenes of violence involving peoples heads and arms getting chopped off. Their ears nailed to trees and their toenails pulled out in slow motion. There are also scenes of naked women with floppy breasts.

Smokey Joe & The Kid had to come back with another bang and express their love for swing music. They recognize talent.

The revolution will not be televised. Throw a party right beside your soul. It’s practically guaranteed when Smokey Joe has the microphone. Smokey Joe reckons getting drunk is defiantly not a bad thing. He is about to hit the bar inside the club and you brought cash too. So buy a drink and grab a girl until she's staring at you. Then let her know your about to show her how to do the Zazou. And I think we all know what that's like.

So now you’re thinking what's a Zazou? Here is what a Zazou is. It's a man and a woman and the moment that describes you. At first you feel aside like that awful kind of bashful. You can't control this urge but just feels like your body has to close contact tied by the waist. Two bodies, one motion. No one can do the Zazou quite like the Sage.

Bare happy people with smiles on their face. Theres a girl in there that Smokey Joe likes. He has got his eyes on her waist. They bust a groove until they see the light of the day.

Everything is dandy. Fuck it. Buy the girl another round. If you think she's banging, just make sure you don't wake up regretting that you’re slammed it. But that’s then. This is about living in the moment now. Living in the now.

Girls are swinging their sexy hips. Guys are swinging their shoulders. We could party on for days. Never thinking it’s over. We'll see the sun move again and drink until we're sober. Our intel says it’s over. We'll believe it when it’s told. At least until the speakers overload.

No one knows how to do the Zazou.
You just feel it in your bones.
It gets your blood boiling.
Even in the freezing cold.
It's the best feeling in the planet people know.
That why it's been an honour.
Been

These lyrics to the song are about living in the moment.

Everything is dandy
Fuck it buy the girl another
If you think she's banging
Just make sure you don't wake up
Regretting that you’re slammed it
But that’s then
This is now living the moment
Girls swinging their sexy hips
Guys swinging their shoulders
We could party on for days
Never thinking it’s over
We'll see the sun move again
And drink till we're sober
Our intel says it’s over
We'll believe it when it’s told
No one knows how to do the Zazou
You just feel it in your bones
It gets your blood boiling
Even in the freezing cold
It's the best feeling
In the planet people know
That why it's been an honour
Standing here to hold my own
Been blessed with the beats
Until the speakers overload

5/5*****!!

Smokey Joe & The Kid - Running To The Moon album review

Smokey Joe & The Kid - Running To The Moon album has a similar vibe and sound you would expect to hear from Frank Sinatra. Jazzy, snazzy, and laid back. The Kid - Running To The Moon album is electro swing with hip hop flavor and techno soundscapes.


So Sexy is about this sexy lady who has beautiful facial features and an exquisite physical appearance. Her body features are exquisite.

This sexy lady has them lips that Smokey Joe is itchin' to kiss. She got a lotta love that she's willing give. She got a good sense of what Smokey Joe is talking about. She got a little thing about Smokey Joe making up sounds. This sexy lady has an ass Smokey Joe would like to touch. That is why the term “booga wooga” means.

This sexy lady has got a little grin that be making him think that she has got friend there too that is willing to play. (And possibly a threesome.) She has got a big smile that makes him laugh. She has a cool style that she can rock on the block. She’s got a wild thing going with her hair. It’s the best.

Her skin is so smooth. Her legs are long. She got legs so long. He likes to see her cross her legs. He watches he when she makes moves. You know he loves watching her move. The way she walks is so cute. He wants to hold her hand because he wants to be her man. She got a way to get men attracted to her. She makes his so crazy because she is so sexy. She is lookin' so sexy.

Oh my. There's just so many choices. He can't just simply choose one they all got something about them that he loves so much. She makes moves in a killer way. She got him thinking things that he never have thought of. She got him in a strange way messin' him up.


Prohibition 2 revisits the song “Prohibition” from their Nasty Tricks album. Smokey Joe & The Kid sing about how Prohibition frustrating is and was on their song Prohibition 2. Prohibition was written about illegally drinking alcohol during the Prohibition era. Alcoholic beverages were illegal during the 1920s since that was the Prohibition era. Prohibition was the prevention manufacturing and sale of alcohol by law, especially in the United States between 1920 and 1933.

There may be famine and war. We can go back to the Stone Age. We can take the nuclear bomb. I’m ready to suffer all the misery. But the only thing that pisses me off is Prohibition. The only thing that pisses “some people” off is Prohibition. Follow Smokey Joe’s motto that accompanies him on Earth. "Life is so much better after two drinks"


Smokid All Stars is a posse cut with The Smokid All Stars which are Youthstar, Chill Bump, Charles X, Pigeon John, NON Genetic, ASM (A State of Mind), Waahli, DJ Netik, and Blake Worrell. And you know who Smokey Joe & The Kid are. Better hold onto your heinies.

It's the arrival of the caravan. Touchscreen... SHAZAM! Waahli is looking super dapper. Plus he is more than just a rapper. Watch him pause like a comma. Erase your face with a paper chase. Never placid like the lake. It's time to spot the polyglot!

Punks jump up. Bad boys move in silence. Smokid All Stars don't get angry. They just get violent. Money don't make or break NON Genetic. But don't mistake NON Genetic.The hunt is on. Forget about the season. Loyalty is number one. Loose lips is treason.

Smokid All Stars will never stop fighting until the fighting is done. Until the last person is standing and you know who won. NON Genetic kills more with a few words than you can with gun. So bring a lot of ammo so you don't have to run.

ASM (A State of Mind) hurls liters of murderous word vomit with the speed of comet on top of this here beat. It's the mark of the mad genius. He feeds the competition nothing but the hard cold dose. 3 CCs of reality. Face the mirror. You crumble at your own lack of abilities. Too many MCs cramp up the cipher like they're giving peeps free Dilla beats. That's why he needs a ton of weed. To drown out this onslaught of wannabes that follow him.

Word is bond like Sean Connery. ASM is born to shape the youths of today like it's pottery. The honesty is seeping through the pores. Sleep speaking on the shores. A multi-lingual thesaurus. Forrest Gumping through life and thumping your wife twice. Cooler than a bucket of ice. Splice the mainbrace and pass it on to the right.

He had burst time with the first line using the ensuing confusion inflicting numerous contusions of the frontal lobe. From dub speaker rack blast distraction. Last master craftsman brew with artisans in Japan. He has scorned battle scars like Partisans in Iran.

He saw a man extend his hand to the grand design clutching at shadows. That was the puppet of the pantomime. An amplified Gibson 61 and rip drums to rip raw shreds and flesh colored lumps on.
A strict analog demagogue, dog. You could hardly spar if this was volleyball.

ASM is the one who will secretly feed you your own semen, intravenously remove your spleen, and feed that to your grandma with her evening tea. Enjoy the scenery while he stabs you repeatedly beneath the trees.

Youthstar is back at it to bat it with a bad attitude. He is here to cause static. The bars are on automatic. Youthstar is shooting off this planet with Smokey Joe and the Kid. Yo mans a rap addict. You fucking maggots are bum bandits. Quit trying to act like you're the worst but you are phony. Your style smells like an ass crack. He will still fuck your corpse in the morgue.

Blake Worrell had to heat and fry the lyrics to this rhyme skillet to the point that he might finish you quicker than one minute. So listen.

He is in the business stirring up all this incredible heat. Cooking up things to making think you ain't nothin' in this game of rap kings like him. You’re sheep in the heap of weak ones roaming the land of the dead. Look who talks too much mess. So big that he has to rip the jaw off to slice it. He pulls the tongue out with a wrench and a pair of clips. Let it dry for a few days and then he’s back with some scissors.

Just in case you missed the name well it's Mr. Dangerous AKA Miscellaneous. Kids claim that Mr. Dangerous AKA Miscellaneous is lame. Correction. He’s got bars off the chain like a nunchuck collection and punches on deck, He ain't feeling your reaches. He brings that heat and piles up bodies like Tunisian beaches. A lyrical genius is what he is.


Bank Holiday is about Smokey Joe missing the lady he loves. At last it's summer. Smokey Joe has returned to gather the aquatic flowers. Stumbling over the same polished pebbles where they had tread together. He was alone. Her image was close. He confesses that he misses the lady he loves.  He is crying soft tears even though his heart is happy. His heart is happy. It will be his secret. Tender in silence.

5/5*****!

DJ Rasoul - Down 4 U EP review

DJ Rasoul - Down 4 U is one of the best underrated EP from DJ Rasoul. He produced the best hi-hats on songs to this EP. This is one of his deeper houses releases with a funky sound and is one of his best EPs. The hi-hats on Down 4 U fit in well with the static of the production and shakers. Those chords are what make the song sublime. Something is perfect for a laid back lounge set. The chill vibes will get you in the zone. Movin On is another classic Rasoul banger with rhythmic bongos and drums.

5/5*****!!
