ALBUM OF THE WEEK: FRIKYIWA COLLECTION 1, the first of two compilations rounding up the previous 12" output from Frederic Galliano's Frikyiwa label. Frenchman Galliano has long been working to fuse electronic music with traditional African musical forms. To inaugurate his new Frikyiwa label, Galliano selected several African artists from the vaults of Cobalt Records and offered their tracks to remixers such as Aqua Bassino, I.G. Culture, Chari Chari, Doctor L, and others. The result is a unique and varied collection that never fails to underscore the commonalities between African music and modern dance.

LIVE GIG OF THE WEEK: Peter Brotzmann's Chicago Tentet (+ 2!), live at the Great American Music Hall, San Francisco. Twelve of the fiercest players in contemporary jazz, together on one stage, in an ensemble performance that was just plain incendiary.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Amon Tobin's SUPERMODIFIED. Tobin's third full-length for Ninja Tune is even more eclectic and fascinating than his previous two. Beat-heavy but largely ignoring Tobin's drum'n'bass roots, SUPERMODIFIED layers sample upon sample into a complex but stimulating aural journey that continues to surprise all the way through.

MINI-SPECIAL: Tonight's show included a special half-hour segment featuring music and conversation with bedroom producer e:trinity. A veteran musician and SoCal resident, e:trinity borrows elements of Filipino traditional music for his unique electronic compositions.

Thanks to Zeljko Kerleta for unearthing the likes of Jiri Stivin, SHQ, Mahagon, and others we'd never have heard before THIRD EYE came along. May his Cosmic Sounds label live long and prosper.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: MAURICE FULTON PRESENTS...BOOF, or "Life is Water for Gerbadaisies When They Are Dancing." I have no idea what that means, but what it should mean to you is nine absolutely gorgeous house tracks from NY producer Maurice Fulton. An album rich with textures, as well as some unexpected twists and turns, this is what innovative house music is all about. On Spectrum Records (UK).

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: After some tantalizing guest appearances on compilations, as well as the soundtrack to "Next Stop Wonderland," Bebel Gilberto delivers her full-length debut, TANTO TEMPO. The daughter of bossa nova innovator Joao Gilberto and Brazilian singer Miucha, Bebel brings her inherited vocal talents and international worldview to bear on this smooth but sophisticated release. Co-produced by Suba, with guest appearances from the likes of Amon Tobin, Thievery Corporation, and Carlinhos Brown, TANTO TEMPO puts a modern perspective on the classic bossa nova sound. From Ziriguiboom/Six Degrees Records.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: TOURIST, the sophomore release from St. Germain. Five years ago, Parisian Ludovic Navarre set the standard for jazz/house hybrids with his classic debut, BOULEVARD, under the pseudonym of St. Germain. Now he's duplicated that success with TOURIST, an even jazzier effort released on Blue Note/France. Nice one!

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: CLOSE THE DOOR by German DJ/producer team Terranova. Although this album was apparently released in 1999, only recently has it become widely available in the States. Some fine downtempo trip hoppy-ness in the best Massive Attack style, featuring guest vocals (in English) by the likes of Rasco, Tricky, Cath Coffey (Stereo MC's), and a young lady named Coco. On Copasetik Records.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: DJ LOGIC Presents PROJECT LOGIC. The "fourth member" of Medeski, Martin, and Wood has amassed a staggering amount of downtown NYC talent on his debut CD. But despite the constantly shifting lineup, it sounds as cohesive as the best Bill Laswell fusion projects. From John Medeski's Hammond B3 workouts, to rap from the Anti-Pop Consortium, to the Eastern vibes of tabla master Karsh Kale, to go-go, trip hop, and Latin beats, the whole shebang is marvelously sewn together by the textural skitting and whizzing of turntablist Logic. A very impressive debut. On Ropeadope Records.

MOVIE OF THE WEEK: "Me, Myself, I," a delightfully THOUGHTFUL Australian comedy starring Rachel Griffiths.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: The GROOVE DISTRIBUTION CD SAMPLER 1.01. Normally, I probably wouldn't feature a promo-only release as "album of the week." But when Dirk and the gang at GrooveDis sent me extra copies to give away to my listeners, how could I refuse? ;-) Seriously, this compilation is a fine roundup of what's going on in the groove music scene these days: a little house, a little downtempo, a little broken beat, a little drum'n'bass, etc. With first-time-on-CD tracks by Everyday People, Hefner, and London Elektricity. And you can't beat the price! Big thanks to GrooveDis for the freebies.

GIG OF THE WEEK: Once again, Femi Kuti tore it up at Bimbo's in San Francisco, to a sold-out house. The man's energy level is amazing! Nice to hear him do an encore of "Water No Get Enemy," as well.

MOVIE OF THE WEEK: James Toback's BLACK AND WHITE. An original, almost documentary-like narrative exploring race relations, with some equally interesting casting choices. Catch this one quickly, because it's too offbeat to stick around for long, I suspect.

CO-HOST OF THE WEEK: Joining me this week, and for the next several weeks, is new KFJC DJ-in-training Tom Foolery, who will be experiencing firsthand the joys and agonies of live radio. Good luck, Tom!

And last but not least, it's the PLAYLIST OF THE WEEK:

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Remix albums are often patchy affairs. Not so with the Joakim Lone Octet's TIGER SUSHI REMIXED. While the original album was an intriguing experiment in modern jazz fusion, this remix album betters it by retaining the jazz flavor but adding even more diversity in the beat department. The stellar cast of remixers includes: Sci-Clone, Catalyst, Dego, Seiji, Restless Soul, and more. Easily the most satisfying remix collection since Airto's REVENGE OF THE KILLER BEES. On Future Talk/Versatile.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: CITY WATCHING, the debut album from Two Banks of Four. Rob Gallagher (Galliano) and Dill Harris (Young Disciples), two veterans of that practically embalmed genre known as "acid jazz," form the core of this exciting new project that synthesizes many influences to chart a unique path through dancefloor jazz culture. Anyone who's been following the hard-to-pigeonhole "broken beat" artists (Neon Phusion, Modaji, etc.) should check these guys, too. On Sirkus Records.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: EARPRINTS by Conjoint. The second album from David Moufang's ambient jazz ensemble features Karl Berger on vibraphone and Gunther Ruit Kraus on guitar, along with Jamie Hodge and David Moufang on a variety of electronics. Residing somewhere between electric Miles and Mixmaster Morris, Conjoint have crafted an impressionistic album full of atmosphere and rhythm. Guest musicians fill out the sound with horns and reeds, but it is clearly the combination of Berger's vibes with Moufang's spacey electronics that make this project shine. On Source Records.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: SOUNDTRACK FOR LIFE by A:xus. The first single- artist album release from Chicago's Guidance label, after 60-plus 12"s and a half-dozen compilations, is the debut album from Austin Bascom, aka Abacus, now recording as A:xus. It features the familiar vocal tracks "Baghdad Cafe" and "When I Fall," as well as an eclectic selection of new, and mostly instrumental, material. Rooted in the classic techno sound of Derrick May, but incorporating elements of house, drum'n'bass, hip hop, and more, A:xus' lush and beautiful debut is indeed a fitting "soundtrack for life."

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: THE FUTURE AIN'T THE SAME AS IT USED 2 B... according to Neon Phusion, who've released the first full-length album from the burgeoning West London scene. Kaidi Tatham, Orin Walters, and Alex Phountzi have created an exciting new hybrid soul music that gains momentum throughout the course of the album, suggesting that there are yet more avenues to explore before this "broken beat/house not house" style has run its course. A great introduction to the West London sound, on the Laws of Motion label.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: More downtempo brilliance from Vienna's G-Stone posse; this time it's SUZUKI by Tosca. Richard Dorfmeister and Rupert Huber's second full-length (not counting remixes) is every bit the equal of their debut, OPERA. No real surprises here, just more extremely chilled-out and dubby grooves to induce some serious bouts of head-nodding. It amazes me how consistently good the G-Stone label has been, though. Long may they chill.

Another fine release in a whole catalog of fine releases from Mr. Bongo.

"Jazzadelica" with Rocky Rococo
Playlist for 1/2/00, 10pm-2am

Webcasting 24-7 at www.kfjc.org

This week's edition of "Jazzadelica" was an all-Brazilian show, highlighting some recent releases, some essential labels and compilations, and a few scattered curiosities. No "album of the week" per se, but the most essential record for this week's show was undoubtedly TRIP TO BRAZIL 2, the latest compilation from Brazilian jazz producer and journalist Arnaldo DeSouteiro, on the Motor label. Subtitled "Bossa and Beyond," TRIP TO BRAZIL 2 includes several rare and/or unreleased tracks, as well as many classics, and fascinating liner notes. It's expensive, but worth it.
