Музыка и песни Luscious Jackson / Luscious Jackson

Baby DJ is the first and only Luscious Jackson album for kids under 8. It was written and recorded in Brooklyn, NY. When Luscious Jackson members became parents, the band decided to create an album for kids that would also be listenable for parents (yes, they found a lot of kids music cloying and annoying). It contains nine songs with the same New York City groove you may know from their hits Naked Eye and Ladyfingers from the 1990's. Songs like Freeze Dance and Baby DJ are party anthems, while Coconut Icee is a walk through the city on a summer day Record Label: City Sound Style: Independent

The band's self-released new album on their own NY City Song label! This is the band first release in 14 years. Luscious Jackson's unique and streetwise blend of punk, funk, and the various musical and cultural styles of its native NYC emerged via Beastie Boys' Grand Royal label with the 1992 Village Voice Pazz & Jop Best EP winner In Search Of Manny. Debut album Natural Ingredients was released on Grand Royal/Capitol in 1994, as the band embarked on that year's Lollapalooza tour as well as an arena tour with R.E.M, saw the record's single "Here" featured in the film and soundtrack Clueless, and appeared on Saturday Night Live. Produced by Daniel Lanois, Luscious Jackson's sophomore album Fever In Fever Out dropped in 1996. Featuring the smash hit "Naked Eye," it went gold and established the band as a household name everywhere from Gap ads to Jeopardy! questions. Keyboardist Vivian Trimble left the band following the conclusion of a world tour supporting Fever. making album number three, 1999's Electric Honey (featuring the single "Ladyfingers" and its Tamra Davis-directed video), the band's first as a trio and last before they called it a day in 2000. The hiatus was first broken in 2006, but it wasn't until early 2012 that the first music from Magic Hour was unveiled in the form of the track "Are You Ready?" "When we were making the new album," Jill commented, "we felt like we did when we were making our first demos. We were just smiling and laughing all the time because we rediscovered a musical connection we all really loved and missed." Reports of Luscious Jackson's reunion and the forthcoming album were confirmed when the band decided to gauge public demand for a new record by partnering with PledgeMusic.com-offering fans the opportunity to fund the sessions via pledges ranging from a basic $10 album download to a $10,000 house concert. Response was fast and furious, with pledges surpassing 100% of the band's goal within 48 hours Record Label: City Sound Style: Independent
