Yeah, we're comin, we comin. Let's invade the Amazon, The world needs to step down, And come back home, We're holding on, no life support. Spanish bombs in Andalucia, Too many resorts that shouldn't be there. There's no profit in an endless desert, Peace will come when we all remember. One fish, two fish, blue fish, no fish, Our dead junkie soul. And my home, your home, our home, no home, Will soon be no more. Don't wait another day, We can't afford delay, There really is no other way, Let's Invade The Amazon. Let's Invade The Amazon, Let's Invade The Amazon, Let's Invade The Amazon. Let's Invade The Amazon, Let's Invade The Amazon, Let's Invade The Amazon. Pale splash of blue, light up our souls, show us that you are the answer. Cause we need you, we need you. Big car, gas car, blue car, fast car Speeding in the wrong direction. Trawlers, traffic, smoke stacks, coal power, It's time, extinction, rebellion. Let's invade the Amazon, We're coming we coming. The dry and dusty sands of time, Are no longer on our side. Those overheated lies, are darkening the skies. If we know where we came from, We can start to come back home. Accept that we're neighbours, In the only place we can call our own. Don't wait another day, we can't afford delay. There really is no other way, Let's invade the Amazon! Let's invade the Amazon, Let's invade the Amazon. Let's invade the Amazon Let's invade the Amazon, Let's invade the Amazon Invade the Amazon.... There's a day and it's coming, It's coming soon. There's no time like the present, There's no one like you. Dream of the world as it ought to be, Don't stop, don't give up. There's no time like the present, There's no one like you, There's a day and it's coming, Coming soon. Don't wait another day, We can't afford delay, There really is no other way, Let's Invade The Amazon! Let's Invade The Amazon, Let's Invade The Amazon, Let's Invade the Amazon, Invade the Amazon. We must believe. Searching for empathy, Just hoping for air to breathe.

about

Oli Stewart is Casbah 73. American-born, Madrid-based DJ, producer, vinyl collector and selector extraordinaire with several decades of experience under his belt.
Classic soul, funk and disco at its finest, with releases on mainstay outlets such as Glitterbox and Lovemonk, we’re extremely proud to have him in the Boogie Angst record bins.

Casbah 73’s Boogie Angst debut is a two-sided live band funk workout reminiscent of early 70’s acts and labels such as 24 Carat Black, Black Heat and Strata East, but also connects to the current sounds of Black Jazz Chronicles, Sault and Nu Genea.

Let’s Invade the Amazon is a highly grooved piece of live musical wizardry, with vocal performances to match. Beautifully extended and ongoing, the steady backbone interplay with funky electric pianos, with the occasional synth riff popping up for a breath of fresh air. And in the words of Casbah himself: “Quite possibly - no, definitely, the only soul-disco track ever to be inspired by Michael Mann's book “The New Climate War”, The Clash, Sun Ra... and Dr Seuss”.

On the B-side we find Pale Splash of Blue; some top shelf live Moog-, Rhodes- and Hammond featuring jazz funk. Punchy organs stab away alongside Casbah 73’s signature electric piano sprinkles, bouncing around his unique rhythmic groove. All resulting in a driving pace and attractive up-tempo moment; more than worthy of that evening beach club get-together.

Casbah 73’s sound is a clear amalgamation of his broad range of influences, and the two songs on this release are a definite showcase of his love for funk, soul and disco.

With some excellent remixes on their way, keep an eye out for the upcoming limited edition vinyl release.
