Solex (lyrics, jazz, albums, quote, songs)

I searched and didn't see a thread about her. Anyone else dig her music?

If you've never heard her before, she's a Dutch record shop owner who started making music out of samples from old albums she couldn't sell. Her music has a dusty, dirty, jazzy feel to it with a 60s-ish vocal sound and the kind of lyrics you could only come up with if you were writing in your second language.

Never heard of her. Linkage please?

Hehe, sounds brilliant! Linkage is definitely needed.

Ask and ye shall receive. Here's a link to download her song "Not a Hoot" from the album Low Kick and Hard Bop. Let me know what you think!

This the kind of music Tarantino creams over. Which is a good thing!

Yeah, I could definitely see that with the song I posted. For a little variation, here's another one, "Solex All Licketysplit" from Solex vs. the Hitmeister.
