Flashie Musician Archive
December 2006 | The Teddy Bears
October - November 2006 | Stewart Price
August - September 2006 | Jenny Wilson
The Flashbaggie were first introduced to the illuminating (and captivating) Ms. Wilson in the spring of 2004 whilst driving up the California coast en route to the magical port destination of San Francisco. We will never forget that magical time of days past; the "Nerves" Cd on constant repeat in the compact disc player, the winding PCH highway spiraling endlessly into infinity, aqua-green waves crashing into the magestic cliffs below the road, and the mesmerizing sound of the First Floor Power and Jenny Wilson sweetly seducing the Flashbaggie's heart. Jenny hails from Stockholm, Sweden and is currently featured on the The Knife's record label, Rabid Records. Visit iTunes to learn more.
July 2006 | Tiga
The featured song is "The Ballad of Sexor" by Montreal-based DJ/Producer/Prophet Tiga. Tiga entered the Montreal dance scene in the early 90s, after taking an inspirational tour of the late 1980s Goa club scene in India. Tiga is a man of many faces and he shape-shifts as quickly and easily as any X-Man mutant. From his cover of "Hott in Here" by Nelly, to his re-interpretation of the Corey Hart hit "Sunglasses at Night", to his most recent work on the album "Welcome to Planet Sexor", Tiga continuously confounds, confuses, and creates dancefloor chaos with his infectious beats and bottomless well of imagination. Only Tiga could inspire a die-hard disco pundit like myself to write endless run-on sentences in an attempt to describe the well spring of love that pours from my heart whenever I hear "Far From Home" or "You Gonna Want Me". As Tiga says, "The citizen may take a bride, but it is the rifleman who takes a lover. Ultimately we all must choose either the myth or the mountain.”. Visit Tiga's website or go directly to iTunes.com to purchase the MP3s for your life-long enjoyment.

Tom Gandey, aka, Caged Baby, hails from the foggy beaches of lovely Brighton, and has blessed the worldwide dance community with his nostalgic, yet rump-shaking brand of electro-pop.
