Earlier this summer I went to the rather excellent Lovebox Weekender Festival in London, hosted by Groove Armada…
There were performances from Ben Westbeech, Coldcut, Norman Jay, Jamiroquai and Gilles Peterson to name but a few. And now, to bring back the happy memories, I’ve discovered some podcasts that were done for the Lovebox website.
They inlude mixes by the aforementioned Coldcut, X-Press 2 (whose track Lazy, is another of the tunes covered by Barefoot), Tom Findlay (of Groove Armada) and the excellent hip-hop/funk crew Breakin’s Bread. But the one that has really taken me is by Blacktronica which includes an excellent cover of As, by Stevie Wonder (the 2nd song at my wedding since you asked). But I have no idea who this Stevie cover is by and it’s driving me mad. Have a listen to the Blacktronica mix here, and if you recognise the cover of As, please let me know who it is!
