Okay as pointed out, 2005 is over! Time for Electrohouse Bobbins 2006!

― Anko Painting (Anko2), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 04:43 (nineteen years ago)

I posted this on last years thread but here it is again;

I saw Tiefschwarz on Saturday.. I recognised;
3 Channels - 2 Dancing Rabbits
Duoteque - Drug Queen
Freeform 5 - No More Conversations (alter ego remix)
Buy Now - For Sale

There were a few MONSTER tracks they dropped - one with a really wobbly bassline and one that was menacing in a similar way to Frank Martiniq - A Boost (Misc Remix).

If anyone has an idea of what these could be, please tell me!

― Anko Painting (Anko2), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 04:48 (nineteen years ago)

I'm rather behind but both the Ewan Pearson and DJ Naughty mix-CDs are awesome.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 06:58 (nineteen years ago)

Does anyone know where/when the Tiefschwarz remix of Missy Elliott's "Teary Eyed" will be released?

― JoB (JoB), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 09:48 (nineteen years ago)

1st entry for me this year has to be cut copy getting the remix makeover for their 'getting nowhere' track
digitalism : hard and angry distorted electro gubbins with lots of acid
whitey : all smooth and nice
there is also a sabastian remix but that one passes me by.

― mark e (mark e), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 09:48 (nineteen years ago)

My first entry would be Ulysses & Nicklcat's "Make You Feel Good", a cute acid pop record on My Best Friend.

The awesomest record right now is probably the Martinez' remix of Rui da Silva's "Lixuneanos". I know Da Slva is a well-know Portugese dj/producer but his records have always passed me by so far. His original mix (about ten minutes long) isn't half bad either. It has a corny spoken word sample (?) of a teacher explaining to his female student that the exam will be something like 20% oral and 40% anal.

― JoB (JoB), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 09:52 (nineteen years ago)

Gus Gus have a version of their new single 'Need In Me' called 'Need In Detroit'. (This is probably the only contribution I will make to this thread this year ha ha).

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 10:33 (nineteen years ago)

ada's 'i love asphalt' is incredible.

Does anyone know where/when the Tiefschwarz remix of Missy Elliott's "Teary Eyed" will be released?

WOAH!

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 12:47 (nineteen years ago)

think I posted this in the 2005 pt 2 thread, but it's technically 2006:

Water Lilly - Dissidance

Pretty great micro/electro track with fantastic Tomas Andersson remix

― Dominique (dleone), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 13:11 (nineteen years ago)

Mylo-Muscle Cars-Tiga Remix, is pretty good, and an actual 06 bobbin!

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 13:56 (nineteen years ago)

aint the cut copy remixes a 06 bobbin then ronan, release date implies it is ? (Jan 23rd)

will probably get the cd single for that mylo/tiga mix ..

― mark e (mark e), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 14:31 (nineteen years ago)

oh maybe! I saw the Digitalism one as a promo last year on Phonica so that makes sense.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 14:42 (nineteen years ago)

if you like the glitterstomp of goldfrapp then you are going to love this lots new stuff :

http://www.product01.co.uk

hot trap : moonstomp mix, and the acid overloaded electrovox mix are very good.

― mark e (mark e), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 15:49 (nineteen years ago)

dapayk people dapayk! you really should hear him!

plus mylo alex smoke rmx is aces.

― nebbesh (nebbesh), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 16:16 (nineteen years ago)

Happy new year!

― adamrl (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 16:18 (nineteen years ago)

I thought the dapayk and padberg "dirty white" single from last year was pretty good

― Dominique (dleone), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 16:18 (nineteen years ago)

I can't get into Dapayk really. Very dry minimal stuff kind of turns me off tho

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 16:20 (nineteen years ago)

I had the same issues with him before I heard Marek & Das Polenpony. That record is amazing, especially Polenpony.

― Jena (JenaP), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 17:22 (nineteen years ago)

Dapayk is the one who did "Emergency" right? Love that one.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 17:37 (nineteen years ago)

Drama Society's remix of Ellen Allien's "Down" is all I need to get by right now. Morgan Geist's remix of "Good as Gold" is just about as great.

That Naughty mix has so much promise and goodness going on (JM Silk!), but is ruined by incessant chatter. Note to Naughty: SHUT UP.

― Richj (Rich), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 18:18 (nineteen years ago)

"Perfume" is a great new Dapayk track on Resopal. Other than that, I only have the Semaphore EP by Dapayk & Padberg from '03, which contains the beautiful track "Soul Back".

― JoB (JoB), Tuesday, 10 January 2006 18:36 (nineteen years ago)

I really like the chatter on the DJ Naughty mix!

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Saturday, 14 January 2006 04:36 (nineteen years ago)

Daft Punk Guy-Man After All (Justice mix) and the Digitalism mix of Technologic have got me abusrdly excited at the moment and I haven't even heard them in all their glory.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Saturday, 14 January 2006 13:31 (nineteen years ago)

Also I'm presuming this is different to the Human After All Justice mix that came out last year that I still haven't heard.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Saturday, 14 January 2006 13:35 (nineteen years ago)

Justice's "One Minute to Midnight" (on the Toxic comp that I think has something to do with Ed Banger) is pretty great- still up at To Here Knows When.

― telephone thing, Saturday, 14 January 2006 21:13 (nineteen years ago)

i like that dapayk single on resopal too! it's not so dry, and there are definitely (micro-ish) electro bobbins elements in it. the bass hooks could be from a derrick may or blake baxter record.

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Saturday, 14 January 2006 22:46 (nineteen years ago)

Kavinsky - 'Testerossa Autodrive'
is very, very, very cool, it was out in europe last year, but hey, it's just out in blighty

― benedict x, Monday, 16 January 2006 20:33 (nineteen years ago)

is dapayk and padberg's 'soul back' really from 2003? i only just heard it and am loving it. i think some of his stuff is very dry and minimal but a lot of it would also fit in this thread, especially a lot of his album with padberg.

― stirmonster (stirmonster), Monday, 16 January 2006 21:50 (nineteen years ago)

I bought Triple R's "Selection 4" mix CD today, and it's just as solid as earlier editions. Oliver Hacke's "7.03" is stunning, as is the Alex Smoke remix of Alex Under's "Las Bicicletas Son Para el Verano". Anyone else heard this?

― paulhw (paulhw), Monday, 16 January 2006 22:08 (nineteen years ago)

― deej.. (deej..), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 08:37 (nineteen years ago)

the new Gabriel Ananda single, "Ihre Personliche Glucksmelodie" is one of the best electrohouse bobbins in many moons. I guess it's also a minimal bobbin, but it is pretty anthemic.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 12:03 (nineteen years ago)

that's a great track, but I think 2005 bobbins!

― Dominique (dleone), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 13:19 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah Ronan, wasn't that a huge track from last year? (it's on Kreucht & Fleucht and The Sound of the Sixth Season, and moved Mixmag to pronounce Ananda the most melodic man in minimal or some such thing)

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 13:24 (nineteen years ago)

it came out on a one sided vinyl on karmarouge like, a month ago according to discogs but in reality I think it only became available this week or last week. is the version I refer to (below) a slightly different version?

http://www.discogs.com/release/590958

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 13:45 (nineteen years ago)

Ah yes I remember reading about this version, it's mixed live and goes on for longer or something, as per standard ketamine house practice? Don't know how different it is substantively to the (awesome) original. I love the bassline in this track, the way it just starts whirring ridiculously at the end, like a robot gurgling ice cream.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 13:49 (nineteen years ago)

Florent 12-inch on K2 is nice, and kind of cosmic too ("G-Net")

― Dominique (dleone), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 20:11 (nineteen years ago)

I'm in two minds about "Ihre Personliche Glucksmelodie", it's heading slightly too much into melodic trance sounds for me. On the other hand I can't imagine arguing with that bassline if I was dancing to it.

― Bn1 (Bn1), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 21:04 (nineteen years ago)

is dapayk and padberg's 'soul back' really from 2003?

December, but yeah! Anyway, I would like to know of Rui da Silva has done anything besides "Lixuneanos" that I should know about... (i.e. not trance).

― JoB (JoB), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 21:33 (nineteen years ago)

omg mark broom 'rock n roller' omg!

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 07:42 (nineteen years ago)

Is that even Electro-house though?

(disclaimer: I haven't actually heard the full track, but it was kinda old-school intelligent-but-stompy techno, with a bit of schaffelyness?... maybe I should go slsk... also, when is that bloody Kiki mix coming out and have you heard it Mr. Lex?)

― fandango (fandango), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 07:46 (nineteen years ago)

wow... whatever character I used there swallowed my entire alternative description! eh... kinda hard techno with a schaffely twist that one?

― fandango (fandango), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 07:47 (nineteen years ago)

I can't even read my own posts ;_;

― fandango (fandango), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 07:51 (nineteen years ago)

it fits into the 'bobbins' bit of 'electrohouse bobbins'! everything on the from london with love single is pretty ace actually.

the kiki mix is in my bag but i haven't listened to it yet. it looks amazing, it's coming out on 30 jan...

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 07:55 (nineteen years ago)

I love the I love asphalt too. The monolake sleeparchive remix is minimal but would go well with electrohouse too (cos the drums have lots of bite and it has chiming).

― Jacob (Jacob), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 08:51 (nineteen years ago)

has anyone heard the new Gigolo mix, American Gigolo II? i havent, but the tracklist looks very appealing. (bartz! carretta! more bartz! more carretta! fixmer! ok actually it looks a bit one-sided)

― Yawn (Wintermute), Thursday, 19 January 2006 18:38 (nineteen years ago)

has anyone heard the new Gigolo mix

I haven't either, but this must ROCK!!!

(nice surprise though I didn't know they were doing a second one...)

― Omar (Omar), Thursday, 19 January 2006 21:41 (nineteen years ago)

Foremost Poets!!

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Friday, 20 January 2006 01:24 (nineteen years ago)

Giorgio Gigli - I Can't Breathe (+great remix by Lee Van Dowski)

synthy, almost ilalo-esque track, but crisp, quick. remix is very pretty, and a totally different character

― Dominique (dleone), Friday, 20 January 2006 21:42 (nineteen years ago)

jeepers, Mylo is on the cover of Billboard

― Lukas (lukas), Saturday, 21 January 2006 23:03 (nineteen years ago)

has anyone has heard Go Commando With James Fucking Friedman? looks like I might like it buuuuut .... maybe a little too indie-remixy. (first track is a rapture remix of annie, ugh)

― Renard (Renard), Sunday, 22 January 2006 04:02 (nineteen years ago)

I've been listening to Audiomatique Vol.1...surely destined to get some love around these parts. Very good, elegant bobbins, although the beat gets boring after awhile. Extra points though for not including any of those godawful Trentemoller vocal rmx's.

Rob Acid's 'Lidia' is the one I like best at the moment.

― Omar (Omar), Sunday, 22 January 2006 21:59 (nineteen years ago)

That "Audiomatique" comp looks ace. I think I love Trentemoller's "Prana" - totally weird, but not in his usual "weird" way, more astral-mystic weird.

But Omar how could you hate on his vocal rmxs?

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 23 January 2006 09:26 (nineteen years ago)

I just hate the voices esp. the one with the Knife witch (IIRC). The Unai mix only gets good when he concentrates all the ecstasy of rave, ever, into that 2 minute bit.

― Omar (Omar), Monday, 23 January 2006 11:46 (nineteen years ago)

What about the Yoshimoto mix?

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 23 January 2006 11:53 (nineteen years ago)

Can't remember but I think I liked that one best...I'll try to find it again.

― Omar (Omar), Monday, 23 January 2006 12:00 (nineteen years ago)

The Yoshimoto mix is great but I think I've burnt out on it cos I really played it all the time at the end of last year. I keep meaning to buy the Unai and Vernis ones and play them constantly and finally phase out the Schafhauser/Yoshimoto/Royksopp ones. They've had a hard life now and are tired.

The new Boxer Sport is like some kind of LCD Soundsystem meets Boxer bobbin, it's amazing.

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 23 January 2006 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

boomkat got me again.

― cheshire05, Monday, 23 January 2006 22:09 (nineteen years ago)

I've probably said this before at some stage but i love mixing the yoshimoto remix into warning siren (sped up a bit). The basslines are nearly inverse.

The Unai mix is the only trentemoller mix where i think the original is actually better.

hopefully i'll get to checkout that Audiomatique comp before Australia Day!

― Anko Painting (Anko2), Monday, 23 January 2006 23:22 (nineteen years ago)

the audiomatique comp is great, and seconded on that new 12" on boxer (the shock?) it's fucking fantastic, both sides!! especially the original mix, which weaves in and out of electrohouse and schaffel quite nicely.

bought yesterday, if memory serves:

hugg & pepp remixes (thomas andersson ROCKS it - house music to get super fucked up to)
jona on get physical, exceptional & detailed.
new chelonis on physical, excellent dj hell remix
robag wruhme remixing tanzmann on moon harbor, kinda schizophrenic but good
audiomatique comp 3 track sampler
burnski on morris audio with maetrik/martinez remixes - martinez trying to out-trentemoller trentemoller
new joakim on versatile, not electrohouse bobbins but some nice electrodisco...
jeff samuel - bork on trapez - samuel in melodic mode, very nice
dj fex - beautiful on systematic, even better once i got it home...
ibn al-khamiya on out of orbit -- awesome 3 tracker includes a real nice funky midtempo thing

anyone heard this:
SONTEC *R BABICZ*
LOCKO TRAIN (PAR)
apparently the babicz remix is killer.

― something less threatening (heywood), Monday, 23 January 2006 23:48 (nineteen years ago)

Am I the only one who really dislikes Martinez? He never comes close to Trentemoller for me cos even when he tries to make a crazy track it still sounds so politely proggy. To be honest Déssous/Audiomatique and a great deal of Pokerflat are totally cursed with that same vapid electronic deep house thing. I dunno if this is what Vahid complains about!

A typical example is Martinez's remix of "The Sky Was Pink", I mean talk about missing the point, it's like "let's add a huge thumping beat to the a track which is the best example of less is more in the history of electrohouse". It's like he takes the peaks and troughs from the original and decides to ration them out a morsel at a time over and over and over for 10 minutes.

Other than that I agree with alot of your suggestions something!

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 19:21 (nineteen years ago)

tomas andersson is on a roll right now - his remixes are sounding great

― Dominique (dleone), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 19:34 (nineteen years ago)

what are some of the remixes? I''ve been looking for more by him since Washing Up, but I didn't like Hip Date ....

it's not really electrohouse but the only track I can think to recommend right now is the new Headman, "Balearica" (with vocals from the Rapture dude)

― Renard (Renard), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 19:44 (nineteen years ago)

i met him in a shop. he looks like boris johnson. he seemed nice though, he gave me a cd, despite me looking blankly when he mentioned who he was and out of orbit records. little did i know that i would subsequently spend an entire very hot day looking round all record shops in london looking for out of orbit tunes on vinyl.

im split between ordering all these tracks or as much as i can find, and just not bothering - i wont actualyl ever play any of it out, so sometimes i wonder why i just accumulate all this heavy plastic...

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 19:45 (nineteen years ago)

Carbon in Urban Outfitters in Kensington probably carry Out of Orbit, at least we always do and we're their Dublin branch.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 20:00 (nineteen years ago)

actually, just thinking about the hug ep and his mix for water lilly's dissidance. I like these more than I like washing up, though washing is good too. the remixes just seem more sleek (and definitely more minimal)

― Dominique (dleone), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 20:08 (nineteen years ago)

out of orbit is one of the labels that i will not necessarily buy on sight, but it's always in the listen pile. i only passed on the cantrip people 12" because of funds. it was not exactly what i was looking for - decent dubby techhouse sounding a bit force inc. - not bad at all, but i wasn't sure what i'd do with it. that said i'll probably buy it next week just to listen to. it's robert leiner, who i saw do a live ambient/idm set at this past year's chillits campout in northern california. you can download his set in its entirety here: http://www.cloudfactory.org/music/chillits05.html
my own set is on there as well.
also gave the audiomatique comp another listen last night and the second track in -- adultnapper i think it is -- is killer. according to the liner notes all the exclusive tracks are going to be released on 12", part one out now with part two coming soon. sooner than later i hope, this track is fucking dope! which is strange as i wasn't into his mule release or another release i heard on a US label whose name escapes me.

To be honest Déssous/Audiomatique and a great deal of Pokerflat are totally cursed with that same vapid electronic deep house thing.

ronan OTM. audiomatique and pokerflat are hit-and-miss and i avoid dessous altogether. although listening to the mark & john 12" on the audiomatique comp makes me wish i hadn't passed on it. :)

i love martinez though. :) a sucker, i guess.
what's up with border community - do they not repress? been trying to get that stuff in the shop for AGES...

― something less threatening (heywood), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah I mean I do always check Out of Orbit too, it's kind of functional and sometimes good. I like the Willie Graff and Kyle Erisson one alot.

I think Border Community use weird distributors, at least over here they do and so you never see them anywhere.

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 09:50 (nineteen years ago)

Solieb - Respell / Angular Momentum (aka Solieb goes electro-house!)

― Dominique (dleone), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 14:37 (nineteen years ago)

― Yawn (Wintermute), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 15:27 (nineteen years ago)

I haven't been much of a fan of The Knife, really, but I'm listening to the "Silent Shout" single and Williams' "Acidic Circuits Remix" ain't half bad. Sort of what you'd expect, but it's long and epic and I can see it going over very well in a big room towards peaktime.

Also in the druggy acid vein, a few of the tracks off of Billy Dalessandro's new LP on Resopal sound pretty dope on first listen.

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 15:32 (nineteen years ago)

From a bit upthread, I am in the same boat ambrose. I have a very, very strongly burning desire to aquire much of this stuff but I have to order most all of it online, and I loved to hold and feel the vinyl but it's not entirely practical. Most of my listenings are at work or in the car, and there is no chance I will play any of it out so I'm always torn and usually just hope it will end up being compiled somewhere (thank you Total X, Famous When Dead X, etc.), try to get electronic copies somehow (thank you blogs), or buying mixes on cd instead (maybe that's better anyway). But, still, deep down the collector side of me (it started with Matchbox cars, went to Baseball Cards, and has now stopped for a lifetime on music) really wants the real, real shiny plastic things.

― matt2 (matt2), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 15:47 (nineteen years ago)

a lot of times I have the mp3's for months before I wind up finding this stuff in the stores in new york

at least then I have heard the songs and know what I like ...

but why people don't stock certain labels, Get Physical in particular, is beyond me. you can find the CDs at Tower but the vinyl is impossible ... unless someone wants to clue me in that I'm going to the wrong stores ....

PS- Takes a bit to dowload....

― Giles Manius (jsoulja), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 22:11 (nineteen years ago)

ronan, as border comunity is run by 3 beat it does go through really weird distributors. the only place i ever see the records is hmv! btw, they do repress all the time. and yes, that martinez 'sky is pink' remix is a classic example of completely missing the point of the track. nathan fake live is pretty good but he didn't play 'the sky is pink' the time i heard him. bah!

― stirmonster (stirmonster), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 22:13 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah I think it's Amato distribution, tho we deal alot with them for a certain Tom Middleton CD, haha! I think they have a habit of not coming through for us when we do order BC stuff, I guess they look after their bigger vinyl customers. We've the same problems with Intergroove sometimes, they declined to give us "Mandarine Girl" at any point last year.

I think Fake should be a good gig, really looking forward to it now, it's in a venue with a really good soundsystem plus I'll be glad to get a chance to play a bit deeper than at Backlash.

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 22:17 (nineteen years ago)

god, that's beautiful. one of the greatest music videos i've ever seen. pleix are amazingly talented.

xxpost

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 22:22 (nineteen years ago)

Does anyone know anything more about pleix?

― Giles Manius (jsoulja), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 22:37 (nineteen years ago)

what are some of the remixes?

There was a Sharam Jey one as well, and Trick & Kubic's "Orbital Dance Machine". First time I heard Tomas Andersson was a remix for Hell's "Keep on Waiting" (2003).

Anyway, my bobbin of the week is "I Don't Care (Version 101)" by Tim Deluxe (he used to be in Double 99 and runs his new label with the one who wasn't Jonny L from True Steppers! I didn't know that - speed-garage-electro-house surely be just around the corner.) I believe this is a dub mix of a vocal tune with lots of bleeps and some breathing in it.

― JoB (JoB), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 22:57 (nineteen years ago)

new Gabriel Ananda is v.good, b-side "Take Off" sneaks up in a similar way as "Ihre Personliche Glucksmelodie", tho doesn't stay in ecstasy zone as long. but still really lovely sounding

― Dominique (dleone), Thursday, 2 February 2006 19:12 (nineteen years ago)

new tomas andersson track (Copy Cat) popped up in the ysi thread yesterday

pretty cool. a lot of the same tricks as Washing Up but more subtle.

JoB - i'll pay that tim deluxe track :) thanks

anyone know any more electro rock in the style of the tiefschwarz vocal mix of chikiniki's "something more"?

also i'd love some of that 2004/2005 style electro HOUSE like freeform muscle cars and stuff.. at the moment my sets are way too dark for the start of a night.

― Anko Painting (Anko2), Friday, 3 February 2006 06:11 (nineteen years ago)

OMG! This is gonna be great, even though I already know most of the tracks.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 27 February 2006 05:25 (nineteen years ago)

Damn it Tim, I was expecting you to say "OMG" 4 hours ago!

Nitpicking - The only other tracks I'd like to see included would be "Picadilly Circuits," "Rising," "Pleasure Seeker," and maybe the original "Jah." Other than that, nearly all of the tracks sound better than they do as standalones.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Monday, 27 February 2006 05:42 (nineteen years ago)

ooh, that looks a bit of alright. (I have finally clicked with the get physical stuff, this looks like my ideal catch-up comp.)

― armalite roffle (haitch), Monday, 27 February 2006 05:54 (nineteen years ago)

What on earth is Fuckpony - "Dave Brubeck"?

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 27 February 2006 07:55 (nineteen years ago)

Only info I know about them is that they should have a release on Get Physical coming up as well as another on one of Jay Haze's labels. The Brubeck tune is a great vocal throwback to GP's earlier deep housey days.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Monday, 27 February 2006 08:17 (nineteen years ago)

Ahhhh most anticipated.

― deej.. (deej..), Monday, 27 February 2006 08:18 (nineteen years ago)

zwicker on get physical! hooray!

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 27 February 2006 11:50 (nineteen years ago)

I love the way they keep Starbucksing good artists

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 27 February 2006 11:50 (nineteen years ago)

fuckpony are jay haze and samim, who releases on haze´s labels (textone.org the netlabel and tuning spork).

(they are also bearback and release on the tuning spork sublabel tuning spork family affair but i have never heard anything of it)

really looking foward to the compilation

― luk, Monday, 27 February 2006 13:21 (nineteen years ago)

i'm about to have my first listen to get physical volume 2... pretty excited! although yeah, no picadilly circuits/rising is a bit of a suprise.

― toby (tsg20), Monday, 27 February 2006 14:20 (nineteen years ago)

well, unsurprisingly, it's great. have they changed any of the tracks? eg "na na na" doesn't sound at all how i remember it (although perhaps i never heard it enough).

― toby (tsg20), Monday, 27 February 2006 15:56 (nineteen years ago)

Piccadilly Circuits was on Body Language tho!

The Tuning Spork Family Affairs are way better than Tuning Spork proper, in my opinion.

Nobody ever seems to mention Tuning Spork in these parts though!

When is the new GPM comp out then?

The new Teka tune on Players Paradise (normally not a great label) is brilliant, almost Get Physical standard.

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 27 February 2006 23:36 (nineteen years ago)

Yes, but "Body Language" and "Mandarine Girl" were on BL and here they are again.

Release date is April I think.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Monday, 27 February 2006 23:49 (nineteen years ago)

to the soulseek machine!

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 28 February 2006 00:00 (nineteen years ago)

"Yes, but "Body Language" and "Mandarine Girl" were on BL and here they are again."

I almost wish there wasn't any overlap with Body Language at all, but considering that these two have been far and away the labels biggest hits it would probably be somewhat odd to leave them off.

(was "Philly" as big? Perhaps, but I suspect that a lot of people got into "Philly" via the Naked Music 'Lost on Arrival' sampler 12" rather than via the Get Physical 12")

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 28 February 2006 00:08 (nineteen years ago)

ok who's heard M.A.N.D.Y.'s cover of 'o superman'? :-0 . oh and ronan, if you read this EMAIL ME!!!

― danny invincible (michael w.), Friday, 3 March 2006 18:20 (nineteen years ago)

Tim, I think "Freemind" was Get Physical's biggest seller for a long time.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Friday, 3 March 2006 22:29 (nineteen years ago)

yeah that makes sense. It's such a classic! I still think it's my favourite Get Physical track, or maybe "Our World (Our Music)". Although now "In White Rooms" maybe!?!?

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Sunday, 5 March 2006 11:29 (nineteen years ago)

"No Stoppin'" is sometimes my favourite, just for the intro really, I don't like the vocal much, but those kind of xylophone noises in the intro are amazing.

― Ronan (Ronan), Sunday, 5 March 2006 13:53 (nineteen years ago)

I mailed you btw Michael/Danny, let me know if you didn't get it.

― Ronan (Ronan), Sunday, 5 March 2006 14:10 (nineteen years ago)

Grr I still haven't heard "No Stoppin".

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Sunday, 5 March 2006 14:57 (nineteen years ago)

I'd YSI but don't have an mp3.

nope, didn't get it :(

― danny invincible (michael w.), Monday, 6 March 2006 19:51 (nineteen years ago)

shit, that's weird, will try again now.

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 6 March 2006 21:22 (nineteen years ago)

Tim ...

"In White Rooms" ... yeah, you might be right. this track is amazing. the whole "Planet Earth" (Duran Duran) melody, and the way they exercise so much restraint in the presentation ... but still keep it rockin' ... it's really, really fantastic.

Almost instantly became one of my favorites.

― Cameron Octigan (Cameron Octigan), Monday, 6 March 2006 21:29 (nineteen years ago)

x-post replied to your mail there, did you get it? (sorry for derailing this thread but I have paid my dues to ilm electrohouse bobbins)

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 6 March 2006 21:42 (nineteen years ago)

Thanks for "No Stopping"! It's good but I'll have to listen to it more in order to understand why it's Ronan's favourite.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 03:07 (nineteen years ago)

I hope my view is not tainted by the fact that it wasn't on the compilation which for a time I played every day in work for a few months. Though I think it isn't, it is still a big one for me.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 13:01 (nineteen years ago)

holy shit, I just realized that I'm going to be in Paris for the Get Physical Night (since I live in Toronto, this is a big deal). Does anyone know anything about this? Tickets, etc?

― jackl (jackl), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 21:35 (nineteen years ago)

What is the name of this: M.A.N.D.Y.'s cover of 'o superman ? I heard it in a live set and have been searching for it.

― Jacobs (LolVStein), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 23:22 (nineteen years ago)

Jacobs, this is the one you're after: http://www.discogs.com/release/403597

― superbadger (superbadger), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 00:01 (nineteen years ago)

Thanks superbadger, I bought all of his 12" hoping one would have that song, and I had come to the conclusion it was a live edit.

― Jacobs (LolVStein), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 00:26 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, didn't realise it had been out so long when i mentioned it upthread. so it's pretty much impossible to get hold of? bummer

― danny invincible (michael w.), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 14:17 (nineteen years ago)

impossible???

found one in rub a dub in glasgow last year, it can't be that hard?

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

I really like "yellowstone" on that new mix. has it been released elsewhere? I don't see it on discogs or anywhere..

― jackl (jackl), Thursday, 9 March 2006 04:47 (nineteen years ago)

..actually, never mind, I just saw on Jona's site (http://www.jona-web.be/) that "yellowstone" is previously unreleased.

Can someone who has heard the Moonbootica album please report back?

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Sunday, 12 March 2006 23:08 (nineteen years ago)

It's been a while, wasn't that impressed, bought one track on Beatport: "Big Intro".

― JoB (JoB), Sunday, 12 March 2006 23:25 (nineteen years ago)

The CD version of the Moonbootica album has like 18 or 19 tracks, it seemed like they were trying to crossover by throwing out everything they had and seeing what sticks. I never heard the vinyl version though, which had extended versions of the album tracks.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Monday, 13 March 2006 01:44 (nineteen years ago)

I thought this would be a good place to ask.
Sorry if it's too cheesy!
What is the elctro house tune that samples Snoop Dog "Smoke Weed Everyday" please?

P.S.
I take it James Holden is the only person who really sounds like James Holden. He's just kind of his own with his wigged out stuff isn't he?

OMG Trentemoller live OMG... It was amazing! Very close to matching Schaeben & Voss live! Slamming psychedelic and ravey techno! "Beta Boy" with "Work It" over the top! OMG!

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Friday, 24 March 2006 17:32 (nineteen years ago)

aaargh, trentemoller's played london twice this year and the first time the crew decided on tomas andersson instead (which was ace) and the second time i was ill :(

― The Lex (The Lex), Friday, 24 March 2006 17:52 (nineteen years ago)

― ambrose (ambrose), Sunday, 26 March 2006 12:18 (nineteen years ago)

My electro-goth bobbins of the year so far is probably "Loosing Touch" by Sasse & Kiki.

Also, I'm surprised how well and sleek the Jesper Dahlback mix of Robyn's "Who's That Girl" is. He did a good job toughening it up.

the new rex the dog remix of royskopp rocks--the dude is back in good form! it sounds a lot like rex and only a little bit like royksopp, which is a good thing.

― joseph (joseph), Wednesday, 29 March 2006 08:00 (nineteen years ago)

v keen to hear new Rex the Dog remixes. apparently MANDY were outstanding in Miami, playing one of the better sets in kind of an all-star electro-house line up. them and booka will be a sweet gig. especially good to see booka with live drums and new visuals.

― rchinn (rchinn), Wednesday, 29 March 2006 08:12 (nineteen years ago)

booka shade live in nyc tonight = GRATE. shame they had to deal with their venue being moved TWICE (it is rumored), and happy valley's basement is teeny-tiny but it was still fantastic. "mandarine girl" a treasure as always, they also did "cha!" and the cover of "o superman," and i haven't spent enough time yet with the new album to recognize any recent material but i'm pretty positive they did "night falls" also.

― joseph (joseph), Sunday, 2 April 2006 09:23 (nineteen years ago)

please help!

the tune on the 4th anniversary get physical cd is listed as chelonis r jones - le bateau ivre (fairy dub). however, this tune bears no relation to the clips i have heard of that version of the same tune on the 12" of le bateau ivre. is this a misprint on the cd? or is it the same thing, and the bit on the cd comes in quite a long way after the beginning (ie the clip isbnt long enough to hear it all)? if this is a different mix of le bateau ivre, what is it?
im talking about track 10 btw

thanks!

― ambrose (ambrose), Monday, 3 April 2006 20:43 (nineteen years ago)

happy valley's basement is teeny-tiny but it was still fantastic.

it wasn't at Avalon? I was gonna go but changed my mind. what / where is Happy Valley?

― Renard (Renard), Monday, 3 April 2006 20:49 (nineteen years ago)

it was supposed to be but then avalon (and a couple of other clubs, like splash bar) were shut down that night as part of a big drug bust lockdown (which, coincidentally, i've heard or read nothing about). i texted phil-two and he kindly re-directed me to HV (27th bw 5th/madison - the upstairs was a hip-hop club, and the germans were downstairs). not many people were there, obviously, and a few people must have just straggled in unawares. which ended up being nice, since like i said, the basement wasn't terribly spacious.

weirdly enough, the sign on avalon said "THE ORB SHOW TONIGHT has been cancelled" - i know nothing about this, they definitely didn't perform with the get physical people. also DJ T bowed out for reasons unknown and was last-minute replaced with DJ hell.

― joseph (joseph), Monday, 3 April 2006 22:26 (nineteen years ago)

er, spoke too soon. gothamist reported on it, as did wnbc.

― joseph (joseph), Monday, 3 April 2006 22:31 (nineteen years ago)

I'd hardly classify Arto Mwambe as minimal, so I thing you're safe. And can I point out I love Hagelstein's new release on Careless.

Coburn: Give Me Love (Lützenkirchen remix)
feels like an electrohouse pizza with everything (I Feel Love + Human After All + Rex The Dog + etcetc) but its anthem material nonetheless!

― fez, Monday, 10 April 2006 15:06 (nineteen years ago)

Lutzenkirchen's new track under the name Tabula Rasa is pretty great.

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 10 April 2006 15:07 (nineteen years ago)

The MFA's instrumental remix of Duoteque's "Daki Theta" is really great, like some weird Jekyll/Hyde Black Strobe/Daft Punk thing.

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 10 April 2006 19:42 (nineteen years ago)

feels like an electrohouse pizza with everything

an electro-house pizza with everything will always taste better than minimal pasta!

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 10 April 2006 20:30 (nineteen years ago)

killer sauce is the secret to both, no?

― andrew m. (andrewmorgan), Monday, 10 April 2006 21:02 (nineteen years ago)

it depends on how minimal the pasta is, i guess. does minimal pasta have sauce?

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 10 April 2006 21:04 (nineteen years ago)

i guess olive oil counts as sauce!

i used to live with a friend from italy who was fond of making the following minimal pasta dish when he was broke and didn't have time to go grocery shopping--he would cook a few cloves of garlic in olive oil and then throw away the garlic. then he'd toss very al dente spaghetti in the garlic-scented olive oil with a few shreds of fresh parsley and some crumbled hot red pepper. minimalicious.

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 10 April 2006 21:13 (nineteen years ago)

more minimal - parmesan and butter. + basil if theres any about. if you have good quality pasta you barely need anything on it i think

― ambrose (ambrose), Monday, 10 April 2006 22:00 (nineteen years ago)

Speaking of pasta ... I am enjoying a lot Pasta Boys - Inspiration (Mano Calda)
Great release.

― nocure, Tuesday, 11 April 2006 09:36 (nineteen years ago)

I still make that, and would continue to make it even if I could buy an entire supermarket full of groceries! I cook some dried pepers together with the garlic though and throw them away before adding the oil to the spaghetti. Then I continue with a piece of (expensive ;-)) meat and some vegetables.

― willem -- (willem), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 12:02 (nineteen years ago)

man, the get physical 4th anniversary mix rules. i finally heard it. starts off smoother and slower than the 2nd anniversary mix did, with fewer hit-you-over-the-head moments like "philly" or "freemind" in the 2nd anniversary mix, but it's so fucking good. what a consistent label!

i think my "yeah dude this is good" response this time around (as opposed to my "OMG best thing ever!" response in 2004 with the 2nd anniversary mix) might be because because with the 2nd anniversary mix, none of us knew all that much about get physical, and so the 2nd anniversary mix was like this rosetta stone to this hidden world that we hadn't yet explored. it made every moment seem more shocking and revelatory i think.

also jona - "yellowstone" -- what a weird tune. and tell me more about zwicker. zwicker rocks!

― geeta (geeta), Friday, 14 April 2006 17:43 (nineteen years ago)

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Friday, 14 April 2006 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

Jona's 'Full Pool' is a track I love, and one that seems to have all the elements needed to be endlessly remixable, ala safari.

The Fuckpony is pretty addictive and poppy, hard to believe Jay Haze was involved in it!

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Friday, 14 April 2006 19:43 (nineteen years ago)

The new GPM comp is very good, I only got it yesterday. A great flow to it again, forgot what a brilliant track "Time Out" was, the Jona track is brilliant, another victory for Get Physical!

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 14 April 2006 22:15 (nineteen years ago)

ok.

by some strange reason i have got the new damian lazarus/matthew styles 2 cd mix - get lost - thats out on crosstown rebels.

its rather nice stuff i must say, but cannot find the tracklisting anywhere online .. sorry.

my question is : what is this classed as ? i read all threads re these musics and seeing as i dont get out to clubs and such, i dont get to hear the subbtle varieties that are broken down in various places, so i'd love to know what i'm enjoying !

― mark e (mark e), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 14:25 (nineteen years ago)

Damian Lazarus's other mixes tend to veer between electro-house and minimal.

Didn't know this was coming out!

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 14:32 (nineteen years ago)

yep was rocking the 4th anniversary mix yesterday, got a lot of love for the snax and ioneq tune, yellowstone and a heap of others.

but

is it just my copy or does "migracion" cut short., followed by a longish pause before the williams tune comes in at the end? this always kinda freaks me out cos im really getting into the lopazz at that point

any news about body language 2 yet?

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 14:36 (nineteen years ago)

what do people think of the upcoming booka shade full-length album, Movements? i think it's fabulous! less experimental than Memento was, but just as exploratory in a more up-front, more danceable way. those drum sounds! it sounds so good!

― geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 15:02 (nineteen years ago)

i received a copy of Movements! but forgot! i will listen to it tonight!

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 15:03 (nineteen years ago)

geeta, discussion here (scroll down).

― jackl (jackl), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 15:05 (nineteen years ago)

Movements is great, even (especially?) the track that sounds like Sigur Ros!

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 16:11 (nineteen years ago)

Listening to it I have to say Tim F was totally correct when he said that Booka Shade need to do a film soundtrack.

Or alternatively someone needs to decide to use Movements as a soundtrack and write a film thusly.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 16:12 (nineteen years ago)

a quote heard in dublin on saturday night - ronan has gone all minimal lately.

― stirmonster (stirmonster), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 17:39 (nineteen years ago)

Especially the Fuckpony 12, so poppy!

This one sounds super hot.

movements still isnt out???

man....

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 17:54 (nineteen years ago)

Movements is technically out may 12 i think, unless you're like most people on ILM who live in the future and apparently listened to the whole thing in late february! i just listened to it in full for the first time yesterday.

― geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:00 (nineteen years ago)

it's out today on CD in the US, not sure about the vinyl...

― something less threatening (heywood), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:00 (nineteen years ago)

there you go--april! see, i don't even know what month it is.

― geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:02 (nineteen years ago)

there is less of me than ever. I cook everything with a sieve and eat everything with a fork, never a maximalist spoon.

was that alex, stirmonster? he should know I've always been minimal!

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:15 (nineteen years ago)

i was trying to devise a "minimal house salad" yesterday at dinner.

― geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:19 (nineteen years ago)

ronan, it was your cohort and all round good bloke jon averill.

― stirmonster (stirmonster), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:20 (nineteen years ago)

I cook everything with a sieve and eat everything with a fork, never a maximalist spoon.

Surely the spoon is more minimal, what with those 3 or 4 prongs on the fork rather than the simplicity of the spoon. In fact the spork might be more minimal, it obviates the need for two utensils while still performing the duties of both.

― jimnaseum (jimnaseum), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:22 (nineteen years ago)

Ah right I thought it was Alex cos he emailed me today saying he met you guys.

It's funny, at our night, everyone always thinks I play minimal and I always think I play electrohouse, I guess it's relative.

But if Jon said it, then it must be true!

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:24 (nineteen years ago)

any kind of utensil is a frou-frou accoutrement, though, right? eating with your hands = minimal house; hands-free, utensil-free non-eating = minimal techno

― geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:27 (nineteen years ago)

eating with your hands is not minimal, it's downright bad manners.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 18:28 (nineteen years ago)

Okay okay, before you guys start getting all philisophical on me, I'm really digging the last 2 Duoteque releases.

Anyone heard the i feel space remixes?

― Anko Painting (Anko2), Tuesday, 18 April 2006 22:42 (nineteen years ago)

Anyone heard the i feel space remixes?

yeah, the Tiefschwarz one, not an improvement (but I don't see why you should remix this thing, it's perfect to begin with.)

That Get Physical compilation was released like a thief in the night, I was expecting at least 6 months of pre-release discussion on ILM with a mid-period backlash. :)

― Omar (Omar), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 07:09 (nineteen years ago)

duoteque are on fire. the mfa remix of their "Daki Theta" is also amazing.

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 07:51 (nineteen years ago)

maybe if i post about SOLID GROOVE on this thread, people will be up for talking about it?

― DEEDS NOT WORDS (vahid), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 14:52 (nineteen years ago)

The Freeform remix of 'I Feel Space' makes it into more of a conventional electro-house tune and injects lots of breathy female vocals. I don't like it at all, but I know lots of people who do.

― geeta (geeta), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 15:36 (nineteen years ago)

ditto w/ the MANDY remix of I Feel Space, it's fine but it didn't seem like an improvement. more pared down I guess, slightly less retro?

other than This Is Sick, what has Solid Groove got out there? there are tons of tracks listed on Discogs but I haven't heard any of em. Oh yeah there's also Got To Get Up and that Din Da Da remix (which is cool). Is he really doing a Fabric mix or were you wishing / joking?

― Renard (Renard), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 15:41 (nineteen years ago)

i'm thinkin about going to see fform 5 dj on saturday @ hiro - has anyone seen them mix records together before?

― Tracey Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 16:07 (nineteen years ago)

dude on saturday let's go see rob hood at avalon! techno!!!!

― geeta (geeta), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 16:09 (nineteen years ago)

I like the MANDY remix of "I Feel Space" actually. It works really well on the dancefloor to have this deep spacy minimal track that gradually morphs into (what is basically the original) "I Feel Space", and MANDY have simply saved DJs the tasks of working out some tricky segue.

Seeing them (MANDY) again on Tuesday arvo, can't wait!

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 16:10 (nineteen years ago)

yeah but geeta hiro is free!

― Tracey Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 17:17 (nineteen years ago)

> "The MFA's instrumental remix of Duoteque's "Daki Theta" is really great, like some weird Jekyll/Hyde Black Strobe/Daft Punk thing."

Ronan OTM.

But I'm also pretty partial to the aw-aw-awkward lyrics. Duoteque is really hitting it well lately (with Planet Juno just a few weeks ago)

― natedey (ndeyoung), Thursday, 20 April 2006 16:00 (nineteen years ago)

I almost feel bad for short changing the MFA to a one trick pony (or one trick trance poney) but the original is just asking for an amazing remix.

― natedey (ndeyoung), Thursday, 20 April 2006 16:01 (nineteen years ago)

i am now starting to think i need to see robert hood.

― Tracey Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 20 April 2006 16:07 (nineteen years ago)

i went to see robert hood with gareth and it was so fast an intense i sat down and wanted to spew

so my advice is: go to robert hood

not feeling the duoteque vocals but the tracks are killer. i wish they were instrumentals. the one instrumental track on the daki 12" is the reason i bought it!

― something less threatening (heywood), Friday, 21 April 2006 17:22 (nineteen years ago)

really good, but isn't there also going to be a Fabric mix soon?

― Omar (Omar), Friday, 21 April 2006 18:51 (nineteen years ago)

looks good but a little bit...predictable?

― geeta (geeta), Friday, 21 April 2006 18:52 (nineteen years ago)

yup, the duoteque vocals were a deal breaker for me.

― stirmonster (stirmonster), Friday, 21 April 2006 19:01 (nineteen years ago)

"looks good but a little bit...predictable? "

Yeah but I don't know how Tiefschwarz could make a non-predictable mix now without overhauling their style completely. On the other hand I've only heard 4 of the tracks on there and one of them is "LFO".

ha! one of my graphic designer pals was the person who had to airbrush the photos of the models in the "Ultra. Trance" and "Ultra. Electro" and "Ultra" whatever ads that you see on the subway and on those album covers. according to him, there is a LOT of airbrushing/photoshop wizardry that goes on in making those women look the way they do.

don't really know what to call this, but Ost & Kjex's "Kjexterminate" is the shit. Kind of leftfield house, cool droopy vocal, cool African-percussion sounding synth hook. Haven't really heard much like this

― Dominique (dleone), Sunday, 23 April 2006 22:38 (nineteen years ago)

The Ost & Klex full length from a year or two back is pretty wild/leftfield stuff, although not as a dancefloor oriented. It has probably the most demented non-novelty cover of "Puttin On The Ritz" ever.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Sunday, 23 April 2006 23:17 (nineteen years ago)

don't know if this is appropriate, but... i doubt anyone will mind a plug like this.
i'm in the process of prepping a first release for the label i'm starting... this will hopefully be out in august, though that depends on when we get the remixes back. i can't mention names just yet, but the producers we got for the mixes are really really exciting for us, as we didn't think we'd be able to afford them, but they liked the track enough to do it for a bargain. just wanted to know what you thought of it. the first release will be the first track on here:

Okay 2005 bobbins but i love love love the Linus Loves remix of Lazyboy's "Police Dogs Bonfire" - so pretty! Backed with the Reverso 68 remix that 12" is a total winner.

― lf (lfam), Monday, 24 April 2006 20:57 (nineteen years ago)

glad you like it, ronan! and re: the picture there... the track is called 'doublefisted' and that's also one of the night's we do at the bar where the label (which is called 19th Street, btw) started and some of do various nights.

― firstworldman (firstworldman), Monday, 24 April 2006 23:08 (nineteen years ago)

I should have guessed that the awesome track I was trying to i.d. in the middle of Jay Haze's Resident Advisor podcast (which sounded like Paris the Black Fu fronting a Bearback track) would turn out to be the new Fuckpony 12" on Get Physical - "Ride The Monkey". It's fabulous, utterly fabulous.

I saw one of the guys from M.A.N.D.Y. DJ last night. He was very good, except that it was supposed to be an afternoon party and he didn't come on until about 11.30pm, and we all had early starts today, and had been at the club drinking for about 8 hours and lost most of our energy and all of our voices. The same applied to everyone else there: we left before he finished playing (about 1am) and so had everyone else, he was playing to an empty floor, whereas if he'd come on like 6pm like last year it would have been great. Let that be a lesson!

Anyway, he played Jona's "Full Pool" which is lovely, and DJ T vs Freestyle Man's "Beat The Street" which i haven't heard played out since I was in Berlin last year, and Booka Shade's "Night Falls" which sounds great over a loud system. And some track which combines the spectral murmers from "In White Rooms" with that dinky little descending synth riff in the original "Body Language".

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 25 April 2006 23:56 (nineteen years ago)

I should have posted all that to the Get Physical thread I guess but the search function is being very slow today.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 25 April 2006 23:58 (nineteen years ago)

Yo the guy on the right in that pic looks like his nickname is "Ratsy." GREAT!

― trees (treesessplode), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 00:13 (nineteen years ago)

that track is cool ... what's your label gonna be called?

― Renard (Renard), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 00:22 (nineteen years ago)

Bodzin & Huntemann - "Black Ice"
reminds me of Bpitch Control stuff, very sharp, pretty hard beats, but still minimal. I love this sound, not sure if there is a specific name for it other than references above (I think I read someone dissing Tomas Andersson as being a Vogel ripoff, but Vogel isn't usually so succinct as what I'm talking about)

― Dominique (dleone), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 01:05 (nineteen years ago)

i've been digging bodzin lately, his rekorder tracks and recent ones for systematic have got me checking his stuff out more often. i got rekorder #5 (i think?) recently and it's really kickin stuff, some driving, funky electrohouse with swinging, boompty boomp tech-house on the flip. any recommendations of his earlier work? i tend to move away from "electroclash"-y sounding stuff...

― something less threatening (heywood), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 01:53 (nineteen years ago)

the new-ish poni hoax single 'she's on the radio' is free to download from their website. I wonder if it is as good as 'budapest'.

― lil' merzbow wow (haitch), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 11:29 (nineteen years ago)

I don't think Tomas Andersson is remotely Vogelish (it's not obtuse, just straight up hooky electro-dance). I do think he's chasing the formula which he got a hit with much too hard with the stuff he's done since "Washing Up" though and it's kind of annoying me now.

― fandango (fandango), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:16 (nineteen years ago)

I wonder if it is as good as 'budapest'

not even close

I do like that analog sounding remix of their other new song, "L.A. Murder Motel" ... can't remember who did the mix though

― Renard (Renard), Thursday, 27 April 2006 21:38 (nineteen years ago)

speaking of Bodzin, i love rekorder 3.1. silly and gothy with a deep satifying kick.

― Good Dog (Good Dog), Thursday, 27 April 2006 22:10 (nineteen years ago)

glad you like the track, renard. the label is called 19th Street. There's a bar on 19th St. here (Costa Mesa, CA) that we (me and the guy that i'm starting the label with and a few of the artists involved) do a few nights at, and just general goings-on in the area seem to revolve around there. my partner's got a website up that details facets and connections and stuff if you're curious: http://fistfull.net/index.cfm .

― firstworldman (firstworldman), Thursday, 27 April 2006 22:59 (nineteen years ago)

ha yes, it's quite disappointing now that I've heard it. that remix is decent, tho.

Pom Pom 23? Anyone?

― trees (treesessplode), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 00:08 (nineteen years ago)

I never heard 22!

― Dominique (dleone), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 00:09 (nineteen years ago)

Okay maybe electro-hip-hop or something, but i can't get "Uffie - ready to uff" out of my head.

What's going on in france at the moment? It's like an electro-revolution or something.. but whatever it is, it's good.

― Anko Painting (Anko2), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 09:16 (nineteen years ago)

Pom Pom 22 through 25 are all excellent. he/she/they seem to be back on track after a couple of lackluster releases in the 10s. id say Pom Pom is pre-Kompakt cologne minimalism with extra dreaminess rather than electro-house though

― fez (fez), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 10:39 (nineteen years ago)

I mean, I wouldn't call it electro-house either, fez. BUT-- I think that much of how Pom Pom could be categorized varies from release to release, so I wasn't sure whether to put it in 'minimal' or 'electro'. Pom Pom 23 is definitely more along the lines you've laid out-- hell, it's among Villalobos' top ten at the moment, apparently.

― trees (treesessplode), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 15:20 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, but so is a dubstep cut by shackleton, so that's not exactly saying much.

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 23:22 (nineteen years ago)

Come to think of it, Chandler, Sydenham & co. already tried doing trancey minimal techno a couple of years ago and few people cared apparently (or expected it from them). Maybe Mayer will rerelease them on the upcoming Kompakt AfroLatino label.

yes crazy Maurice. also an original TRAD house producer

oh noes, piece from local music magazine:

"There will always be those who look with a degree of disgust at the very idea of 'dance' music, and reserve particular scorn for the star DJ and the writhing masses who go to sweat uncontrollably in a dank room with overpriced drinks.
I guess I'm guilty of that attitude, from time to time, because the art of dance is so bedevilled by the mundane and the superficial. It makes it difficult to imagine an elevated idea of what dance music could be . . . indeed, what it should be.
And then a double CD compiled and mixed by a chap with the humble name of James Holden arrives. The cover design doesn't bode well, and neither does the title: At The Controls.
It totally slays me. This is my dream dance disc, where many of the fine points about electronica discussed in column after column of Sonic Futures in this very magazine are taken and somehow worked into a set that really does make you want to dance despite the fact that it doesn't treat you like a dork, it's not 'uplifting' in the conventional sense of just a series of shuddering 'funky' rhythms you can get down to."

― etc, Friday, 12 May 2006 03:42 (eighteen years ago)

i don't find it surprising that the indie rock textures in At the Controls would appeal to a non-dance music person. maybe i'm missing the point. should I be laughing at him because he's reviewing something out of his genre?

critics are so lazy. every review of holden at the controls that I've read has mentioned krautrock. isn't there a harmonia track in the mix for, like, 50 seconds or something??

― lil' merzbow wow (haitch), Friday, 12 May 2006 05:27 (eighteen years ago)

hell, it's among Villalobos' top ten at the moment, apparently.

Dammit. I believe I meant this list:

DOMINIK EULBERG
1. Dettmann & Klock – - Dawning
2. Dominik Eulberg & Gabriel Ananda – - Schierker Kreisel
3. Jeremias Werner – - Five Woodpeckers
4. Fusiphorm – - Am I?
5. Douglas Greed – - Delicate (Hemmann & Kaden Remix)
6. Adapator – - Meteor
7. Panasonic – - Muuntaja
8. Stewart Walker – - After This I’ll Never Sleep
9. Error Error – x) - Your Everlasting Breath (Paul Kalkbrenner Remi
10. Pom Pom – - Pom Pom 23

Pretty good, nonetheless.

The Ed Laliq track on the new F.U.N. compilation is quite bizarre, a bit like Simple Minds' "Love Song" but with slight faux-crunk affectations.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Friday, 12 May 2006 06:31 (eighteen years ago)

oh my god, that soundhack remix of autorepeat is fucking MENTAL.... it's like a single chord progression looped over and over and over and over and over and over and over (you get the idea), overlaid w/ vinyl hiss that sounds like the record's actually fucked and totally skipping - i'm sure it will cause great confusion in a club - and it just builds and builds and builds and builds and BUILDS.... .absolutely genius and massive.

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Friday, 12 May 2006 10:09 (eighteen years ago)

― FLOWING STRAIGHT FROM THE SURVIVAL SCROLL (vahid), Saturday, 13 May 2006 16:30 (eighteen years ago)

what annoys me about a track like soundhack's remix of "auto disco" is that it ISN'T any smarter than "psychic bounty killaz" or anything on crydamoure or especially ian pooley's remix of funk d'void's "herbie on rhodes" (very U+K if we're talking about filterdisco as noize-annoys) ... it just adds that "record skipping" noise as an extremely redundant level of "hey look at what i'm doing here DO YOU SEE" and that just grates.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Sunday, 14 May 2006 17:24 (eighteen years ago)

it ISN'T any smarter than "psychic bounty killaz"

does it think it is? i don't think so. besides elin aka autorepeat already used that 'record skipping' trick years ago. his early 12"s were huge with sneak who remixed 'needle damage' by auto repeat in '95 and took the idea to 'psychic bounty killaz' in '96. what goes round.....

― stirmonster (stirmonster), Sunday, 14 May 2006 17:48 (eighteen years ago)

phil, you're better than that. stir, i don't share the idea that autorepeat's best work has anything to do with record skipping noises (see: dreary coldcut-esque turntablist new media crap vs "we have samplers, deal with it") and anyway as big of a fan of the whole cheap records axis as i am, i hardly think autorepeat was a big influence on dj sneak. can you back that up? he also remixed "bombscare", you know...

― FLOWING STRAIGHT FROM THE SURVIVAL SCROLL (vahid), Sunday, 14 May 2006 18:24 (eighteen years ago)

can you back that up?

firstly, i never said anything about his 'best work'. i merely said he had used the record skipping trick many moons ago. i also never said elin was a big influence on sneak, merely that sneak caned those autorepeat 12"s. i know this because i heard him play them on a few occasions and remember him charting them. back then i was pretty good mates with pulsinger and tunakan and i remember them saying that sneak had specifically asked to remix 'needle damage' (sluts n' strings and 909 did a remix on the same 12"). there was briefly a bit of a chi-town, cheap, force inc. mutual admiration thing going on at that time and imo, ideas were definitley being traded.

― stirmonster (stirmonster), Sunday, 14 May 2006 18:49 (eighteen years ago)

i'm just teasing, vahid. we both know that you slagging a german who may be doing something similar to US/UK producers (who may well have done something similar first) is as predictable as me bigging up the germans (and often being ignorant of the UK/US axis in any case). we are yin and yang, and without us the entire trans-atlantic dance music detente would rip to shreds completely.

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Monday, 15 May 2006 08:35 (eighteen years ago)

well, i have to admit you're onto something about the chicago / force inc connection. those dj tonka comps! but to be honest i always got the sense that it was more of a one-way thing, w/ germans taking ideas from relief (and associated labels) and not giving a whole lot back (at that point).

trentemoller Nam Nam ep is really nice - kind of low key for what I was expecting, but also kind of better than I was expecting. last track is schaffel (!) that uses a live bass sample, and subtly distorts the track gradually as it goes on. all 3 tracks very interesting sounding, lotsa detail

― Dominique (dleone), Monday, 15 May 2006 20:00 (eighteen years ago)

it is good.

I think Mr Trentemoller only does garish crazy electro on his remixes.

I do like the new one alot tho, it's nice for him to have two styles, and "Killer Kat" is probably the closest thing to a bridge between the two yet.

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 15 May 2006 20:06 (eighteen years ago)

Ronan did you ever hear "Beta Boy"?

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 16 May 2006 08:38 (eighteen years ago)

not yet I don't think....tho it's likely I might hear it and recognise. I tried to find samples there but it's sold out.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 16 May 2006 09:15 (eighteen years ago)

The Gabriel Ananda remix of Marco Bailey's "Bollocks" is huuuge.

But the Dominik Eulberg remix of "Ihre Personliche Glucksmelodie" is kinda disappointing. I guess it's just impossible to make that tune any bigger (well, unless you're Ananda himself and you just make a bigger live edit)

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 11:47 (eighteen years ago)

ok, have now heard pom pom 24 & 25, and the b-sides are as spacey and cosmic (or lunar anyway) as anything out there. how have these people remained anonymous? pretty consistently good to great releases

― fez (fez), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 13:03 (eighteen years ago)

Speaking of "Beta Boy", has anyone heard this Delon and Dalcan mix-cd? It looks pretty good from the tracklisting - plus it has the Trentemoller mix of Vernis's "Bubble Bath", the pyrotechnics of which provide further grist for the "I prefer his remixes" mill.

― Dominique (dleone), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 17:43 (eighteen years ago)

Part of the reason, I think, is that all of his (because it is a he) releases are white label. But that doesn't stop us, now, does it?

― trees (treesessplode), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 17:47 (eighteen years ago)

"Nah. I didn't like the original that much but this remix is fun, goes on too long but I love how it goes cheesy at the end. "

a) how could you not like the original that much?

b) I agree about the marvellous pop-trance ending, and the rest of it is good too, it's just that it sounds too obviously like Eulberg cut out half the original tune's sounds and replaced them with his standard first-five-minutes-of-a-remix-trickery (all those slamming cupboard sounds etc.). I was hoping for a sound overload along the lines of the "Follow You" or "Isssst" remixes, only more so because the original tune is much bigger than either of those tunes. It's hard not to read "Gabriel Ananda - [insert track name here] (Dominik Eulberg Remix)" and not allow your expectations to exceed whatever could actually happen in reality.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 21:47 (eighteen years ago)

how could you not like the original that much?

Ha, I don't know, these things happen. :) Somehow it didn't click like it was supposed to. Happens from time to time, I have the same thing with 'Girl From Botany Bay'...I play it over & over again and then decide I prefer the b-side.

― Omar (Omar), Thursday, 18 May 2006 07:30 (eighteen years ago)

Although "Girl" totally clicks with me the B-side does give it some competition. The wash of noise sounded a bit harsh when I first heard it, but I've grown to like it and I bet it kills when played out.

Can any Get Physical people tell me more about Jona? I feel like I'm reaching the end of my journey from being underwhelmed by GPR to really loving almost everything (except the faux-Prince ones). Obviously this journey is set to come to its glorious conclusion when DJ T, MANDY and Booka Shade play Fabric in a fortnight :)

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 10:37 (eighteen years ago)

But yeah, the three Jona tracks I've heard make me think there's potential for a really great album there, provided they avoid the vocal trap.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 10:38 (eighteen years ago)

Jona's done a remix for Soffy O's new solo single "Everybody's Darling" which is even more Jaxx like, tho still in that kind of shimmering Get Physical style.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 12:48 (eighteen years ago)

― jergins (jergins), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 07:06 (eighteen years ago)

"Can any Get Physical people tell me more about Jona?"

He also recently had an excellent 12" single on Fumakilla called "Tapstroke" - closer to the muscular 'n' messy sound of the "The Learnings" than the garagy feel of "Yellowstone" or the warm soft "Full Pool". Still very much with that overstuffed, impossibly detailed aesthetic, but the connection to the Jaxx is mediated via Dominik Eulberg, if that makes sense...

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 07:10 (eighteen years ago)

I'm excited to hear this as well

On which subject, SURELY, SURELY the Fuckpony album is the record which will bring Vahid back to Get Physical. I mean it's total Classic records style, sense of humour, great grooves, real US sounds.

I am kind of shocked how good it is, tho I have liked lots of Jay Haze stuff, but him and Samim seems a perfect combination.

i didn't care much for "memento" but i am still checking for "movements" ... it hasn't really made it stateside, yet.

also i've seen "GPM comp #2" everywhere but it seems like people on ILM were lukewarm towards it, so i skipped it.

i am DEF going to grab "body language vol 2" as soon as i see it, though. it looks GREAT, maybe almost along the same lines as that awesome tiefschwarz dj mix that came out so long ago.

― renegade bear shot by cops on frat row (vahid), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 22:02 (eighteen years ago)

myths pt II + III (esp "deer in the headlights") is EASILY the best thing i've heard this year.

― renegade bear shot by cops on frat row (vahid), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 22:05 (eighteen years ago)

Which awesome tiefschwarz mix vahid? With A Little Help From Our Friends?

GPM Comp 2 is definitely worth getting (if only for Jona's "Yellowstone"!), just not as consistent as the first comp. I think the problem was sequencing more than anything else - like the Tiefschwarz Misch Masch mix most of the tracks are excellent but the whole thing hangs together oddly.

Not surprising really - when I first got the first Get Physical Comp I had a hard time working out the difference between the style of a DJ T track and that of a M.A.N.D.Y. track... you'd never have that problem now, everyone's gone off in such pronounced directions, and the addition of other acts like Electrochemie and Fuckpony just compounds the sense of fragmentation.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 22:06 (eighteen years ago)

wait...Fuckpony *album*? The single was brilliant.

― jeffery (jeffery), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 22:22 (eighteen years ago)

It's got a track-by-track review by one of Chelonis' friends ("Chelonis pours it on the curb with this song. Punky.

Based on the tracklisting i'd go with the Cream one.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Thursday, 15 June 2006 07:06 (eighteen years ago)

I notice Body Language 2 has THE BEST AND LEAST MENTIONED TRACK EVER. (or maybe from this year, at least)

So note carefully.

Tensnake-Around The House (Mirau) is one of those perfect records that you keep coming back to.

Going back to Fuckpony, it's like really lo fi noises but most of it is kind of deeper than the single suggests. The opener "Children Of Love" sets the tone for the kind of cosmic woozy deeper shades of techno with porno lyrics vibe, lovely choppy snares.

Alot of it reminds me of Marshall Jefferson "Mushrooms" except with a slightly more screwball thing going on all the time.

It's sort of the pinnacle of what's been going on at Tuning Spork from these dudes, but probably a good bit better. Alot of the tracks are kind of clichéd in a good way, like one with a sort of weird slightly electronic woman going "it's only music baby, get down.......I went to a club a guy was like 'i ain't into all this hiphop', it's only music baby, just dance, don't be so uptight'.

this one goes into a huge almost French Kiss style build up, then these awful (great) lo fi synths come in in the outro, that sound like a child trying to play "Promised Land" or some other Chicago classic.

And so forth. It is sort of refreshing to hear such familiar stuff in house, and it's still done really deftly and with great grooves. all of it still feels very minimal while still being lots of fun and very erm "funky".

also despite it being so lo-fi there are some really great build/release parts, every tune made me think "hmm could play this in the 12.30-1.30 zone"

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 15 June 2006 08:37 (eighteen years ago)

Tho I don't know why I'm surprised, they did this white label called Fuckaponydelic which is one of the singles of the year.

― michael wells (michael w.), Thursday, 15 June 2006 21:24 (eighteen years ago)

It did get mentioned on the kompakt thread and yeah, it's great.

Does the high-end of 'Arquipelago' do weird things to anyone else's ears? I love the song but that sound, sadly, makes me fast-forward. There's another Boratto that did the same thing to me.

― jergins (jergins), Thursday, 15 June 2006 21:46 (eighteen years ago)

Is it just me or does "sun & ice" (the track, not the whole release) sound like Star Guitar?

― mike h. (mike h.), Friday, 16 June 2006 00:17 (eighteen years ago)

not in the mp3 i have! i don't have the vinyl, though.

― geeta (geeta), Friday, 16 June 2006 00:42 (eighteen years ago)

There's no great glitch in mine, but there have been couple of times when I've thought, 'Wait, is this skipping?' The word trance is so loaded but the only way I can think to desribe 'Sun & Ice' is to call it trance-inducing. And deeply druggy. The moments when I wonder if they've pushed the repetition too far are my favorites, because of the way it then changes in not so obvious ways. I'd love to hear it out.

Istedgade (A2) sounds even more like it's skipping.

― jergins (jergins), Friday, 16 June 2006 01:20 (eighteen years ago)

NO WAIT I WAS TALKING ABOUT 'OVER THE ICE' AND YES 'SUN AND ICE' DOES HAVE A MASSIVE GLITCH IN IT.

on mp3. could that possibly be intentional?

― jergins (jergins), Friday, 16 June 2006 01:34 (eighteen years ago)

the glitch is on the one i bought from the kompaktmp3 store. so...

i thought ronan was repping for sozinho, but if he's not i'll claim his ticket. 'like you' is good too, but it tries too hard for the summer athem (at least the supermayer mix - the original's grain works so much better than the tightly wound kompakt-o-mix).

I had a similar problem with glitches in a tune I bought on Kompakt; they're pretty helpful if you just drop them an email and tell them about it.

― jeffery (jeffery), Friday, 16 June 2006 03:19 (eighteen years ago)

just realised the particular track i meant is "over the ice" but that whole ep is great.

― michael wells (michael w.), Friday, 16 June 2006 14:58 (eighteen years ago)

Sozinho is brilliant yeah.

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 16 June 2006 17:12 (eighteen years ago)

I'm pretty sure the glitch is intentional since The Field has done the start/stop/static and stuttering thing before. Either that or everything I've listened to has been similarly flawed.

― mike h. (mike h.), Friday, 16 June 2006 17:39 (eighteen years ago)

The kopmakt glitch that always bothered me was the one in the loop that ends Superpitcher's "Even Angels." I mean, if you are going to loop it for like 8 minutes - at least make it a clean sounding loop!

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Friday, 16 June 2006 20:51 (eighteen years ago)

ahh come on. i've been thinking it for a while but, having just listened to them back to back, domino is totally eve by day. if i was patrick chadronnet i would be so pissed off. am i missing something?

― michael wells (michael w.), Friday, 16 June 2006 23:51 (eighteen years ago)

I don't think anyone has missed that similarity! It's almost like Chardronnet wouldn't license it for a Kompakt release so they just made their own version.

I'd like to see a DJ do a mini-mix with Domino, Eve By Day, Mandarine Girl, and In White Rooms all next to each other. All 4 track are quite similar melodically!

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Saturday, 17 June 2006 03:21 (eighteen years ago)

i am still loving "night falls".

and that fuckaponydelic single is crazy! it's like jay haze meets maurice fulton not that they are so far off stylistically to begin with.

what does everyone think about k2 13? heard the promo and liked the a-side a lot. the original version of "like you" is very nice too.

i bought that field single, but haven't listened to it yet. i bet the glitch is intentional though. didn't the first field single also have a glitch in it?

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Saturday, 17 June 2006 15:50 (eighteen years ago)

new Riton 12-inch is pretty cool, and the tracks all sound very different. First is a droney thing that is kind of similar to some of the Elettronica Romana stuff from this year (Modern Heads, Gigli esp), second is w/vocals and reminds me of a poppier take on the Ark single from last year w/Jamie Lidell, third is a great remix of the second with new bass and live-sounding drums and all cut up and stuff.

― Dominique (dleone), Friday, 30 June 2006 16:43 (eighteen years ago)

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 11 July 2006 07:51 (eighteen years ago)

If the Ricardo Villalobos remix of Senor Coconut's "Behind The Mask" wasn't enough to make you buy that 12 inch (and it should be, it's one of the best things he's done and one of my absolute favourites this year), then the Al Usher remix on the flip should seal the deal - it's big and sparkly and beautiful, somewhat reminiscent of the better stuff on the Ewan Pearson Sci-Fi Hi-Fi mix.

Just listening to Silversurfer feat. Kiki, "Ace of Spades" b/w "Dirty Dishes" (Crosstown Rebels 028), and I gotta say it sounds incredibly tossed-off.... like a parody Speicher, it's just a single hook, but neither the sound design nor the filtering/fx have any particular interest to them. There's almost no to the thing, save the decelerating breakdown--which, to my ears, is marred by aliasing. Bass is nonexistent and rhythms are rudimentary at best. The b-side, slightly more electro, is no better. Maybe my soundsystem is missing something, but this sounds like it was knocked out in Garageband to my ears.

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Monday, 17 July 2006 11:54 (eighteen years ago)

Kiki as a producer is almost always disappointing.

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 17 July 2006 12:10 (eighteen years ago)

He's has some good remixes lately, and his Boogybytes mix will probably be one of my faves of the year. I don't think I've liked any track he's done with Silversurfer besides "Wasp."

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Monday, 17 July 2006 18:08 (eighteen years ago)

I really liked the Kiki Sirius 12" from last year, both sides, but haven't heard anything else by him

― Dominique (dleone), Monday, 17 July 2006 18:11 (eighteen years ago)

Luv Sikk (the whole damn e.p.) + Wasp + Atomic + "My Body Is Your Body (Kiki Body Trip Remix)" + The End Of The World (Remix)!!

= some of my favourite bobbins ever!

Can't defend his album though. I hope he can get that right next time around (less smoooth plz) because that was genuinely dissapointing.

― fandango (fandango), Monday, 17 July 2006 18:19 (eighteen years ago)

Peeps are forgetting the awesome K+SS remix of "Safari", which about half the time I like even more than the Holden mix.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 17 July 2006 22:43 (eighteen years ago)

the alex smoke remix of that track licks em both IMO.

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Tuesday, 18 July 2006 03:53 (eighteen years ago)

in fact i'd argue that it's only recently like that labels like mobilee and connaisseur have caught up to the smoke remix meaning that they have been really pushing the bass pressure while keeping it all filigreed on top and in 3D. more more more please.

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Tuesday, 18 July 2006 03:56 (eighteen years ago)

new rekleiner 12" on connaisseur, "the state of things" is ace, as is the hemmann & kaden remix.... more big-room, bass-heavy, ultra-melodic, border comm-style stuff. they should patent their formula.

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Tuesday, 18 July 2006 07:40 (eighteen years ago)

Kiki's 'Motorized' is really elegant & big sounding, you hataz. :)

― Omar (Omar), Tuesday, 18 July 2006 10:01 (eighteen years ago)

"the alex smoke remix of that track licks em both IMO. "

I love the alex smoke mix too Tricky! That evil bass! Actually I think it's probably one of the absolute best things he's done. I still haven't heard Paradolia yet but I'm not terribly keen on the hyper-minimal direction Smoke seems to have taken on other recent tracks and remixes. More melody and bass and beats plz.

Although you should listen to that Safari remix back to back with the Sascha Funke remix of Commercial Breakup's "My Garden" - they are the same track!

(the Pier Bucci mix of "Safari" was great too - weird that)

Apart from his great DJ mixes, I think Sami Koivikko now seems very ahead of his time - I was listening to the Kat Pulatin (or whatever it's called) 12 inch from 2001, and if it came out today on Connaisseur (who, yes, are getting very good) or Vakant or any of the other currently hot labels, everyone would be snapping it up.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 01:23 (eighteen years ago)

One of the things I really like about parts of the Stephan Bodzin DJ mix I posted about on the Kompakt thread (link to the mix here) is how slow parts of it are. There are a couple of tracks in the first half which verge on a disco strut, like a gothic Metro Area... Actually if someone could ID the track at about 25min mark (sounds like a melancholy remix of DJ T's "Freemind") and the track immediately after it I would love them forever.

Speaking of DJ T, his mix of "Animal Magic" is in the same ballpark, and that's a big part of why I love it so much. There's a voluptuous thickness to this sort of thing which I really like, it's a nice change from all that Hawtin-championed itty-bitty brittleness which dominates minimal a bit too much these days.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 01:33 (eighteen years ago)

"the state of things" and the ripperton single "folks and flakes" are two of my favorite singles from this year. electro-minimal. it's amazing to me that tunes that are so wide-screen could be considered minimal, but there you go. still not sure what i think about the "eve by day" remixes.

xpost, haha tim, i still listen to koivikko's "brthye" all of the time! oh the guitar in that track...disco minimal! and his album was really good.

i'm all for more voluptuous thickness.

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 01:39 (eighteen years ago)

I only heard the original "Eve By Day" recently and was slightly disappointed actually, after all the hype. It's certainly epic but I think maybe it's not emo enough for me.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 01:47 (eighteen years ago)

you should hear when i mix it with cajmere! ;-)

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 01:52 (eighteen years ago)

another one that sounds similar to his "safari" remix is "ditto" from incommunicado although it's less of a single and more of an album track. i am unsure of paradolia because his first album was so good.

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 02:03 (eighteen years ago)

no idea what the tunes in that bodzin mix are. the first one is indeed excellent though. in addition to the dj t / metro area references there's a bit of putsch 79 in there too.

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 02:23 (eighteen years ago)

Tricky did you ever hear Smoke's dub of Envoy's "Moving On"? (I may have asked you this before) Still my favourite thing by him.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 02:32 (eighteen years ago)

no, but it looks pretty u+k what with the steve bug remix on the flip.

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 02:37 (eighteen years ago)

It's his most gothic moment. On the Matt Coleridge mix I have it on it's mixed out of Misc's "Momentum", which gives you a bit of an idea of the ballpark. Evil flashing lasers and menacing undead vocoders!

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 02:38 (eighteen years ago)

one would think that since it's an alex smoke remix there would be something tempering the lasers and vocoders. true/false? i his stuff the most when it's either spacey/epic/melodic ("don't see the point") or twisted like the "safari" remix.

― breakfast pants (disco stu), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 02:50 (eighteen years ago)

ha! i randomly listened to the original "eve by day" today too, for the first time in a while. tim mindmeld!! i was pretty nonplussed by it.

― geeta (geeta), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 03:11 (eighteen years ago)

the first bodzin track is Stephan Bodzin - Caligula [Systematic]. I would like to ID the track 25 mins in but I'm having realplayer nightmares!

The 'Eve by Day' remixes aren't that different. Ripperton mix has a slight Border Community feel but I don't know why he bothered.

I can understand the nonplussedness though 'bout the original now. Made me happy when I first heard it though, and maybe that's enough.

― Good Dog (Good Dog), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 04:01 (eighteen years ago)

"one would think that since it's an alex smoke remix there would be something tempering the lasers and vocoders. true/false? i his stuff the most when it's either spacey/epic/melodic ("don't see the point") or twisted like the "safari" remix. "

It's definitely spacey/epic/melodic, but it has more of a straightforward electrohouse feel than a lot of his stuff - would sit kind of well with Black Strobe etc. actually. I like it b/c it's unusually goth-pop and groovy for him but still has the amazing production that you'd expect, some of the sonics have this dark sparkly quality, not so much lasers perhaps as a negative photograph of lasers - black light...

I wish I had it in standalone form. I would put it on so many comp CDs for people.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 19 July 2006 04:43 (eighteen years ago)

like Gabriel Ananda "AC/DC". seems like he's put out a ton of stuff this year, and somehow most of it ends up good (and often very different sounding). like "Bassic" by Touane because it sounds like cool TV music

new Atom Heart (which I'm not sure what style to call, post-acid?) is good. seems to fit in a little w/elettronica romana stuff a bit, as is very trancey, minimal, but also a little psychedelic sounding

― Dominique (dleone), Monday, 24 July 2006 14:50 (eighteen years ago)

I really like the new Tiefschwarz Fabric mix, it's a subdued, monochrome kind of bobbins. Lots of minor chords, it seems. With a bit of dashing neotrance by Riton and a couple of promising tracks from the Schwarz' new Souvenir label.

SURELY, SURELY the Fuckpony album is the record which will bring Vahid back to Get Physical. I mean it's total Classic records style, sense of humour, great grooves, real US sounds.
I am kind of shocked how good it is, tho I have liked lots of Jay Haze stuff, but him and Samim seems a perfect combination.

Marc Romboy vs. Stephan Bodzin - Atlas / Hyperion on systematic, nice and weepy. Melody that reminds me of something off of Castlevania, only more subdued (geekiest analogy of the year).

― jimnaseum - formalist rigour! (jimnaseum), Friday, 25 August 2006 16:10 (eighteen years ago)

Holger Zilske & Dave DK 'Midi Shower' on Playhouse - amazing.

One track off the Trentemoller Essential Mix which is not on the tracklist - nice. Can anyone identify it? http://www.sendspace.com/file/bbbjdi

Omar that tune is Knight Moves by Lutzenkirchen, nice tune.

I wasn't mad on "Midi Shower", I did buy it tho, I'll check it out again.

two new booka shade mixes of 'just like we (breakdown)' by hot chip - vocal and dub - on that 'over and over' re-release. anyone heard them?

― H2-H4 (H2-H4), Tuesday, 17 October 2006 23:02 (eighteen years ago)

Soul In A Bottle is surprisingly good, although I'd say its practically a deep house bobbin.

i like the sven mix a lot, but...uh...maybe i'm being very particular, but i tend to listen to mixes because they're a) bangin and b) are good learning tools. it's bangin, sure, but kind of dull on the education front. as in, there;s nothing unexpected or new in it.

― trees (treesessplode), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 03:03 (eighteen years ago)

but you like it a lot, right?

me too.

― HUNTA-V (vahid), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 03:17 (eighteen years ago)

yeah, i like it, but i wouldn't say a lot. i mean, give me 15 minutes and i could put together the first 40 minutes of that mix myself, in a similar fashion. i think that's what i wanted to say.

― trees (treesessplode), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 03:28 (eighteen years ago)

it's a covermount CD for a major magazine and costs like $6 and succeeds spectacularly at something that import CD sets generally don't (being bangin)

― HUNTA-V (vahid), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 03:31 (eighteen years ago)

and please don't tell me that "get physical vol 2" or "holden: at the controls" or "fabric 29: tiefschwarz" was a "learning tool"

― HUNTA-V (vahid), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 03:36 (eighteen years ago)

learning how to suck maybe

HAR HAR

― HUNTA-V (vahid), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 03:36 (eighteen years ago)

What mixes have been learning tools this year? The only ones I can think that might qualify (for myself at any rate) have all been internet sets.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 04:02 (eighteen years ago)

What's the track with the vocals "Come on and follow me, we'll have some fun. I'll make you come all night long"? One hears it everywhere these days. Love the bass and the sonar pings.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 04:51 (eighteen years ago)

well, as per the "electrohouse = recombination, refinement and distillation of all things good in house, techno and trance" the idea of a "learning experience" sounds sort of shoddy

― HUNTA-V (vahid), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 04:56 (eighteen years ago)

Come on and follow me, we'll have some fun. I'll make you come all night long

It's "Kitchen" by Noze, was released on Trapez last year. There was also a remix single of it that came out this summer.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 05:39 (eighteen years ago)

Noze's "Kitchen" is getting played out in Melbourne now? Waaah . . . the edit of it used in the video = demented pop grebtness.

PLANK SVEN needs to incorporate SYSTEMS THINKING into sets for greater learning! MATTY TAYLOR for next covermount! MIXMAG ARE YOU WATCHING

― H2-H4 (H2-H4), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 22:24 (eighteen years ago)

I GET THE FUCKIN PICTURE. i know it's a goddamn magazine, and for that, the mix is pretty good. but taken as a mix, it's a bit tame. so fuck off.

― trees (treesessplode), Thursday, 19 October 2006 18:12 (eighteen years ago)

Paul Nazca's new 12 on Bpitch is amazing, absolutely took the roof off when I played it last night.

Also perhaps techno bobbins, but Pascal Feos's "Timeless" is incredibly, huge epic techno with a ridiculously long breakdown, it builds to this huge false buildup.....then goes on for another 3 minutes minus the bass, people were actually screaming "BRING IT BACK" by the end, then it does the same huge static buildup again and comes back in.

Makes people go crazy.

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 20 October 2006 10:39 (eighteen years ago)

Also in last night's DJing discovery.....people now singing along to Doppelwhipper!

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 20 October 2006 10:40 (eighteen years ago)

also like the Nazca, particularly the b-side

― Dominique (dleone), Friday, 20 October 2006 14:14 (eighteen years ago)

i must re-listen to teh nazca... though i think i'm with you, d. b-side is bettah

― trees (treesessplode), Friday, 20 October 2006 16:45 (eighteen years ago)

the a reminds me of "transparenza" except more fun...

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 20 October 2006 17:08 (eighteen years ago)

people now singing along to Doppelwhipper!

I need to live in a city where people sing along to Doppelwhipper.

― jergins (jergins), Saturday, 21 October 2006 23:23 (eighteen years ago)

that line made me jealous too

― Jena (JenaP), Saturday, 21 October 2006 23:30 (eighteen years ago)

trentemoller's remix of moby's "go" is an anti-minimal giant, and so good i just about forgive him for the painfully dull album. and i'm pretty sure it's "haircut house" too.

― jermaine (jnoble), Thursday, 26 October 2006 07:24 (eighteen years ago)

I think "Doppelwhipper" being so big here is kind of a watershed for minimal having become popular. As in, other tracks were big but in work and at the club people are like "have you got that Doppelwhatever track????", "can you play Doppelwhipper???".

Quite an achievement for such a GOOD record!

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 26 October 2006 08:09 (eighteen years ago)

"Doppelwhipper" reminds me of the Timo Maas of "Doom's Night" in some ways - the way in which it's so hooky and yet not hyper-simple.
