"Wake Up" by Craig Linke

Wake Up from Craig Linke on Vimeo.


Once Craig Linke, an Australian experimental film maker, made a request to us about using one of our tunes for a film. Of course we said Yes to it.
Then I realised after a couple of years I'd forgotten about it and wrote a mail about what happened.
He answered quickly: 


Hi,

I did make the film and I'm quite proud of it! I entered it into a
festival but wasn't selected.
After that it kind of got left which is a bit of a shame. But your
email prompted me to upload it to Vimeo. You can see it here:
https://vimeo.com/44452703
Enjoy and thanks again.  


And I just agree, enjoy. It reminds me of some short film I once saw that was made in the early 20th century by people such as Man Ray and Jean Cocteau.

Oax Pick - Don Ellis - Indian Lady (1968 footage)

I'm not much of a big band guy, but when hearing Don Ellis' band in the very early 70's, the "Tears of Joy" album, I was stuck. His albums from the late 60's, early 70's are some of the best and pointing forward big band albums from that era in my opinion. And Don Ellis electrified his trumpet and modulated it years before Miles did. And Miles is a huge personal hero!
There are very few vids from that time. Here's a wonderful piece recorded live in 1968, "Indian Lady", from the "Autumn" album.
And the time signatures are as always - odd.
Enjoy!

Oceans 11, 12, 13 and.......... 52

Yesterday when I took a walk along the river shore I did pass a bench on which a guy was sitting, holding a big, home-made kite in his hands. It was windy, a bit too windy for a big kite to fly. I saw it was mounted some kind of camera in the middle of the kite.
I stoped for a couple of seconds, nodded a "Hi!" to him, he nodded back.
"A bit too windy for this?" I said and pointed at the kite.
"Yeah", he said, "I'm waiting for it to calm a bit".
"Taking photos?" I said, looking in the direction of the camera.
"Do you have a computer?" he asked.
"Yes, of course"
"Check on You Tube, I'm Oceans52" he said.
His origin was from Crete, Greece, and that's why the Swedish and Greece flag are on the kite.
And I did. Nothing spectacular, but a bit funny to see the result of his work. It seems like the video shown here is taken about 5 km south from where we met, but, I'm not all sure.

Video-time!!! - Jerry Lewis Makes You Exhausted

Words for the karaoke sessions: I'm a little busy body though I know it's very shoddy, I insist on knowing what is going on with everybody, Cause I'm such a busy body Always prying always spying I'm defying anyone to try to hide the fact from me-- --Now Mrs. Jones is with the doctor and her pulse he's finally clocked her Suddenly she sees me peeking and to all her friends I'm shrieking, "Mrs. Jones' valve is leaking! a mechanic she is seeking cause the clutch needs overhauling and her motor's always stalling." Mrs. Jones, you lonesome gal, you finally lost your trade in value. Now we come to Mr. Clunk, He thinks that I'm a little punk! He's always keeping up with Jones, and while I tapped his telephone, I learned that they will disconnect if soon the bill they don't collect, the sheriff's gonna take it back-- his brand new shiny Cadillac. So now I pass the news around that "Mr. Clunk is bankrupt bound!" I'm ruining his credit and I know he won't forget it Though he thought I was a little punk that cabbage headed Mr. Clunk I got the bank to fume and fret! They took his home, and better yet they grabbed his television set because I'm such a busy body! I'm a little busy body! If you drink an extra Toddy I will spot it long before you thought it, I'll be pointing to your house and tellin' folks that you're a souse! So I admit I am a louse. It's so much fun to tell the neighbors that you're underneath the weather And they ought a get together Using you as an example to their kids of what a tramp'll do if he is off the wagon, now your reputation's draggin' Cause you took an extra Toddy. And I'm tellin' everybody that you're more than slightly dizzy Now I've got you in the tizzy Cause I'm such a very busy little busy body! I'm the death of every party. You should hear the things I say when Truth or Consequence we play! I state the age of Mrs. Done! I tell 'em she is sixty-one and that her face is lifted, and her cargo's slightly shifted. There are couples kissing in the dark. I use my flashlight for a lark. And Joan is hugging Mortimer, and she's engaged to Mr. Shore. I'm hiding in the cuspidor and flash the light upon their face while they are locked in fond embrace and Mr. Shore then wrecks the place. I'm such a busy body breaking up a lovely party! Mabel Smith is on the scale, and suddenly she's growing pale! For in a chorus, so endearing, I have got the neighbors cheering, "Darling what a lovely weight! You weigh One-hundred Eighty-Eight!" You lick the pattern off the plate And then you bleed for more to eat! You look just like a strange falloon that drifted to us from the moon And scientists much watch their step an' see if you're a secret weapon. That is how the gossip goes and all because I stick my nose in other peoples' dirty clothes a heavy winded guy am-- I don't need a breath to say good bye because I'm such a busy little busy bodyyy..... busy booody-- buuuuusy bodyyyy!!! Booody buss--- Gah--I haven't got any breath left!! I'm so-- BUsy bo-- Busy BOOOoodyyyyyy!!! I'm choking I *gags*..... *HUGE BREATH* I'm a little busy bodyyyyy!!!! *** *********** Heard this song some 30 or 40 years ago and it hasn't left me since. Say what you want about these all American guys (and there's a lot to say), but it's great entertainment. O'

Is this the number 1 video hit by Joxfield ProjeX?

At least it's the most viewed Joxfield ProjeX video so far of a nice tune from the "Numbers & Letters" album.
Made by AltRev - Thanks a lot!

Oax Pick - Ian Paice

Gillan, yeahyeahyeah, BlackmoreGloverLord, yeahyeahyeah.
BUT, the driving thunderous power force of the band was Ian Paice's drumming. Glorious and send down from the gods. A hard rock heavy metal percussion genius.
Now it was said!!!

We were happy to see the band playing live 4th of February 1973 in Gothenburg during their haydays.

Setlist:

Highway Star
Smoke on the Water
Strange Kind of Woman
Child in Time
Mary Long
Lazy
Space Truckin'

Encore:
Speed King
Lucille
(Little Richard cover)

I use to talk about this concert with my kids, remembering Ian Gillan saying "We're gonna play s song from our new album Machine Head, it's called Smoke on the Water". Those were the days.

Holy Shit!!!! A Rarity!! Ola & The Jugglers - The Video!!!!

Holy Shit! Holy Cow!! Holy, Holy Whatever!!!!
Here's the video for the extended, previously unreleased, original "Ola & The Jugglers" track.
All of it. 25 plus minutes. A true rarity - never seen or heard like this before.
It's made by our favourite, psychedelic video-maker AltRev, alias György. It was ordered by me 'n' Yan late summer 2010 to use on a private release-party with TC3 to celebrate some new recordings we've made.
Some of these recordings ended up on "Voxluxrabax", our latest release, so far (but, don't worry, there will be more....). On the album is an edited version of Ola where the first 10 minutes of guitar banging terror is missing.
But, here's all of it! Only for you!!
The video begins with 20 seconds of silence, and then...... oh, Mah God!!!!
If your loudspeakers will shiver and shake, just nail them to the floor.
And dance!!!!!!

ThanX a lot, György!!!!

Swedish Azz & Gunnar Lindgren & Gilbert Holmström - Nefertiti 2012-03-02

Mighty Mighty Mighty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Two days ago Oax n Yan, the infamous duo of JoxProX + MCN, the official president of the unofficial JoxProX fan club + Wolf, ehhr, The Wolf, took our long legs in direction to the legendary jazz-blues-freeform-whatever club Nefertiti to watch and listen to Swedish Azz, Mats G's and Per Åke H's band who pays and plays tribute to known and unknown treasures from the Swedish jazz scene of mainly the 50's and 60's and put it into context of today. This night they were guested by Gunnar Lindgren and Gilbert Holmström, two legends!
The concert lasted for maybe 2 hours, probably one of the 10 best concerts we've ever been at (and I'm talking about loads of concerts over the last 40 years).
The track above is the encore.

Below you'll find Gilbert's composition 'Fåglarna' (The Birds), here played for the second time ever (the first time was on Swedish national radio 1966). An abstract, wonderful composition.



The vids shot by some DaniOost (thanX for this cultural deed) who we didn't notice, but from the angle point of view it could have been us, because it seems to be exactly from the position where we sat...

Beware! Be Aware! - colonel XS's Enters the Room

Beware! Be Aware! Yes, that's right, that's the secret words for tonight.
This gentleman, colonel XS, might be heard in a collaboration with Joxfield ProjeX in a future near you.
We're leaving the glimmering surf pop music and enters the dark side of the sun shouting in choir: What about ME! What about ME!
And no-one understands. That's ok for us.
Be Aware! Watch Out! New music's in the pipe-line.

Pedantic Pedestrian / Joxfield ProjeX - Peace Bit XIV Video

Pedantic Pedestrian / Joxfield ProjeX - Peace Bit XIV

This is a video of a couple of years of age. I thought it had appeared on this blog before, but I'm probably wrong, so here it is.
It's made by our old friend Pedantic Pedestrian from a remake/remix of some Bits & Pieces tracks he once did and here he explains the video himself:

"This piece of music is assembled from samples of "Bits & Pieces #1-13" (hence the title) by Scandinavian friends Joxfield ProjeX. The accompanying video is likewise constructed from readymade stock footage (from the MAGIX concern), subjected to various treatments"
