A-T-4 009 Adrian Sherwood Remixes
Tumblr media
In 1984 Adrian Sherwood starts using his talents to remix artists outside his On-U Sound stable. Bristol's Y Records go under in 1983 and Y artists Shriekback sign with Arista, they have Paul "Groucho" Smykle co-producing and get Adrian Sherwood in to remix their singles
Skriekback - Cloud Of Nails (Pump Up A Storm) this is a version of Hand On My Heart which almost made it into the UK top 40. The Adrian Sherwood mix is reserved for a second 12" (which has a Paul "Groucho" Smykle remix on the a-side) as it's gloriously nuts but slides into the track effortlessly
youtube
Skriekback - Mistah Linn He Dead Mr Linn Drum is dead? is also on Shriekback's Hand On My Heart (Remixes) 12" but it first appears on their 12" EP Knowledge, Power, Truth And Sex, it's another remix of Hand On My Heart but taken further from the original. What do you think a little like African Head Charge but a bit harder than Drastic Season? Defo proto-Tackhead. I think it's great, remember this is before digi-dub
youtube
This is a slightly better quality copy of Mistah Linn He Dead, it's Chapter 6 if it don't come up straight away
youtube
On the bandcamp page for this Atmosfear remix I think it said something about Andy Sojka and Adrian Sherwood being a strange collaboration but I can totally see it. They're both involved in black music scenes in London from the late 70s, they both start record labels, both are pulling talent from the pot, lovers artists are recording soul and boogie records and vice versa. Surely you'd hear On-U Sound and Elite tracks on the same night at a Wild Bunch or Soul II Soul doo? Anyway this gem is released as...
Atmosfear - When Tonight Is Over (US Thunder Mix)
Depeche Mode - Are People People? The second of Adrian Sherwood's remixes of Depeche Mode's People Are People, this one is found on the limited edition embossed yellow Master And Servant 12" L12 Bong 6, the first is the On-U Sound Mix on the limited edition People Are People 12" L12 Bong 5. Sherwood was the first person asked to remix Depeche Mode
youtube
The original Science Fiction Dance Hall Classic is a remix of Master And Servant. It's different from what Art Of Noise are doing. There beats, synths, and samples are so clean and clear and this pushes up the noise and feedback

African Head Charge — A Trip To Bolatanga (On U Sound)
Tumblr media
A Trip To Bolgatanga by African Head Charge
The name of African Head Charge’s first album, My Life in a Hole in the Ground, was both a poke at David Byrne and Brian Eno’s My Life in the Bush of Ghosts, and an acknowledgement of their relative circumstances. The two endeavors actually had this much in common; both were investigating combinations of spiritually charged, sampled sounds and newly recorded grooves nourished by the African diaspora. However, 42 years later, only one is a going concern. A Trip to Bolatanga is the first new work in 12 years by chanter and hand drummer Bonjo Iyabinghi Noah, producer Adrian Sherwood and a host of newer and older associates.
The album’s title references a town in Ghana, which has been the Jamaican-born Noah’s base country since the mid-1990s, which gotten some attention for another musical phenomenon. In 2016, Sahel Sounds and Makkum Records collaborated on the release of an album called This Is Kologo Power! Kologo is a variant of West African music named after the two-stringed lute that is used to play it, and one of that compilation’s standout artists, King Ayisoba, guests on A Trip To Bolatanga. In fact, his insistently plucked strings and gravely cackle kick the record off with a bit of English-language advice: “A bad attitude is like a flat tire. You can’t go anywhere until you change it.” Near the record’s end, he dispenses more advice. “Never regret a day in your life. Good days give you happiness, bad days give you experience, worst days give you a lesson, and best days give you memories.” It’s fair to say that African Head Charge has cornered the market on African-informed, polyrhythmic self-help jams.
Sherwood and Noah have always been a bit of a juggling act, tossing ancient and contemporary beats into the air and making them spin in time with each other. Some prior attempts have not aged that well, but if you evaluate music in terms of its moment, A Trip to Bolatanga is on strong ground. The combination of nyabinghi hand drumming, booming kick drum, funky guitar, house-ready piano accents and bobbing clarinet on “Accra Electronica” sounding simultaneously of this time and timeless, and there’s no denying the beats’ substantial bang, which both demands and rewards volume deals.

African Head Charge - A Trip To Bolgatanga - the long-awaited new album is out today!
African Head Charge return to On-U Sound with their first new album in twelve years. Titled A Trip To Bolgatanga, the recordings are led by founder member Bonjo Iyabinghi Noah, with close friend and co-conspirator Adrian Sherwood once again at the controls. A Trip to Bolgatanga is a stunning return, bringing together the talents of two masters who, after a hiatus, have created a rich album brimming with ideas and executed with finesse. A Trip To Bolgatanga is a musical journey to Bonjo’s current hometown in north Ghana. A psychedelic travelogue across the landscape featuring their trademark hand percussion and group chanting augmented with rumbling bass, mutated horns, dubbed out effects, wild wah-wah, haunted voodoo dancehall, synthetic swells, disco congas, tumbling layers of electronic effects, blues-inflected woodwind, and funky organ. As with every On-U Sound production, each repeated listen reveals fresh detail, and its power won’t be really understood until heard on a big system, when it’ll reduce all competition to rubble.

‘Round About Midnight: A Conversation With Adrian Sherwood
We caught up with legendary producer Adrian Sherwood on the heels of his latest effort behind the boards: Horace Andy’s new album, Midnight Scorchers.
“I’m just very, very proud of it. We didn’t rush it. We spent two years making it. We started it before lockdown. And we kept improving it, so I was sending Horace back and forth to Jamaica. Let’s do this better. Let’s do this again.”
