Stoner/Druggy House

Just listened to Moodymann's "I Can't Kick This Feelin' When It Hits" again and I realized this track would be awesome to listen to when you're "in the zone." With its locked, repetitive groove and sleazy cut up vocals. Anyone knows other house tracks that sound like this? Another example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzPOzO-VDRU

h8 this trend

My bad, both examples you cited are dope. This thread title just made me think of Benoit & Sergio/Art Department/whoever and they can suck my nuts.

haha yeah, please don't post trendy druggy house. thanks.

Whenever I hear ""I Can't Kick This Feelin' When It Hits" played out it sounds pretty amazing in exactly this way, though it also sounds more upbeat than I would have expected from home listening.

Can't see what your second example is, but leaving aside Moodymann/Theo Parrish stuff the following immediately spring to mind as fitting yr description (albeit in different ways):

Marshall Jefferson vs Noosa Heads - Mushrooms (Salt City Orchestra Remix)

Jonny L - This Time (Carl Craig Remix) ("there's no need to climb the mountain high-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh...")

Steve Barnes - Cosmic Sandwich

Problem Kids - I Will Lead (Hollway & Eastwick Remix)

Also, it may seem like an odd link to draw but I reckon that a lot of Basement Jaxx's late 90s loop-to-infinity harder tracks ("Same Old Show", "All You Crazies" etc.) fit this mould too, though in a more thuggish, less "deep" manner.

Thanks. Can you tell me Theo's tracks that sound like this? I only know "Falling Up." That's a jam.

Haha lots and lots! To simpify hugely, Theo's watching brief is basically "stoner Moodymann".

It ranges all over the places but you need to hear the Parallel Dimensions first and foremost.

Here's an example of appropriate Theo, Durr - "Took Me All The Way Back", an early classic:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w1JB5YpHYE&feature=related

i don't think of any of this as stoner house and would like it not to be tainted by being classed as such

weed really is such a pointless drug

i would say worst but things like mephedrone and speed exist so

I don't smoke weed. Never had. It's just a name I came up with.

Here's an example of appropriate Theo, Durr - "Took Me All The Way Back", an early classic:

Ha this is the first thing I thought of when I saw the title.

weed really is such a pointless drug

Have we ever polled the most relevant drugs?

Marshall Jefferson vs Noosa Heads - Mushrooms (Salt City Orchestra Remix)

This is the first tune I thought of, you can feel the humidity rising when you listen to it. Pretty much the only time I smoke weed now is in the summer if I'm in the park with friends who have some, and this is the tune I'd want to hear.

i don't think of any of this as stoner house and would like it not to be tainted by being classed as such

Cos yes, no house producers have ever smoked weed.

also... deep dish, leftfield

weed >>>>>>>> lex

Ronan have you ever heard drum club? I feel they're way overdue for critical reevaluation on the grounds you set out above. "trippy" ought not be a dirty word.

lotta ground covered here:

stoner/psychedelic dance music youtube thread for when i'm hi

not heard drum club no, must check them out.

trippy music is amazing, it isn't house (and isn't on youtube) but the lesser spotted eight miles high dub version of "lovelee dae" by blaze is pretty much the greatest weed tune ever. try not feeling stoned listening to this on a massive system: http://open.spotify.com/track/21KTtXstxCV8Rywsvelmrv

^champagne house

dogg house

not heard drum club no, must check them out.

similar to early leftfield but more hippy.

See also my much beloved Mixed Messages mix by Robbie Hardkiss, which is kind of like a soundtrack for the drug-numbed Berlin Sunday after-after-after party scene about 10 years in advance.

Not all that house, but ...

i wish some people would just STOP FUCKING ADDRESSING ME

ok lex

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t710BxHY1cQ

This one even has the inhale-exhale sounds.

wow, I've been getting really into Drum Club again myself recently - surprised to see a mention of them here. that kind of Bay Area/Cali/desert-party house/rave is sounding really good to me these days

from the other thread: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TkHwBgIm5E

This might be a little too frisky.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE7Ya3bxKi8

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NT3xJJnRfzU

And this is arguably more techno than house.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkhqkof1jUc

And this one pretty much ripped my head off the first time I dropped the needle.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=744j9evAkUc

And if we're posting Drum Club then I'm going to get really really hippie.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CVN5Qe-e_E

I swear I've never been to Burning Man, don't judge me.

Also possibly too frisky, personally when I'm really lit I want to do nothing other than dance.

Take that couchlock shit home.

^ morning factory is an all time jam but the record it samples is maybe my fav record of all time

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kt0gB5r0Mko

spadet is also great record as are the two rene & gaston joints from around the same time

w some of the theo and kdj stuff i sorta see where thread starter is coming from but i don't really think of any of this stuff as stoner house - dunno why everyone needs so many genre names

Take that couchlock shit home.

yeah like basically all the best records in thread i've heard when i've been out, which is best place for them

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kS1j_END8eM

Yeah, I'm just posting good deep house and some rave stuff.

I live 3 hours away from Chicago and I can't find a regular deep house night to save my life, it bugs me.

thats a shame pattern loader, which city do you live in?

Madison, there are nights here occasionally but nothing like the Twin Cities or Chi.

I used to go Foundation in the Cities, you know DVS1's old club?

I got spoiled rotten: saw Mr Parrish, Derrick May, Jesse Saunders, a lot of different guys. There's nothing like that here.

there's this thing, that people do, where they identify a vibe they like in particular tracks, and ask for recommendations of other tracks with a similar vibe.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eqGdmw9t2Q

Moodymann sampled this on Conolia, which isn't on Youtube. Great French proto-house/disco.

slightly off-piste here but this is actually the first song that popped into my head when i saw the thread title

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vy2Pp4cRlgc

pattern loader, that gemini track is very nice. but it seems hard to find. maybe you could.. you know..

Check your webmail.

an old favorite of mine fits here pretty well...

spotify:track:5EOXVZ63tb75W2Ba47aubu

i also think of stuff like "fantasy girl" and "bang bang you're mine"

and the entire oeuvre of the idjut boys

spotify playlist of this thread, such as i could find...

or such as i could make, rather, given the, ah, SPOTtiness of the obscurer selections here on the above-mentioned streaming music service

Hey thanks, that's really handy.

I need to try and put together a mix of some of my favorites, it's been a while since I made a new one.

― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand),

what's that? spotify isn't available in my country

Low Res - "Speculative Reminiscing"

It's much more on the rarified headspace tip than the dank sleaze perpetuated in the rest of this thread, but don't hold that against it

unfortunately it's not on youtube.

anyone remember this?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIPkmTs3s0k

so many amazing tracks in this thread.

loving this thread.

I dunno if this actually counts or not, but just today we released this:

http://www.junodownload.com/products/vibe/1935564-02/

it's our (Matmos) remix of a deep house track by Mateo & Matos called "The Vibe", it's 9:56 long and, well, judge for yourself how druggy it may or may not be (I plead the fifth)

sorry for gross self-promo, feel free to diss me

you a slut 4 house

how could we not do a Matmos / Mateo & Matos mix? the alliteration alone is worth it

With spoken word bit by our own Matos I hope!

i've been listening to old house music all week. and yet i haven't gotten high once. trying to stay clear. if anyone in nyc wants to listen to a metal fan talk about house music this friday at nyu come jack with me.

Dug this one out of a friend's basement, he said he didn't see any point in having vinyl anymore and gave me an entire stack.

Which is why my relatives hate helping me move.

this is getting kinda random. but hey, as long as it's good house I suppose. here's one more from me:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhMxR23trZ4

Well the thread description is a very big set of sounds, since virtually every deep house producer in the last ten years has been influenced by Moodymann and Theo Parrish.

And virtually every house single since the late 80s has had at least one slightly druggy cut, or it least it seem like it.

I think it's a matter of perception. One druggy track for some can sound normal for others.

I've had a fever for about 4 or 5 days so just about everything sounds a little off at the moment, maybe its the cold medicine.

Still not entirely sure what to look for in druggy house, but wanted to post this regardless:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OriL0N82TNg

maybe this image would help you: low ceiling basement, smokes lingering, minimal lighting, sparse dancefloor with people dancing like zombies, DJ playing slow house with some sinister, sleazy quality to it. tracks that float, hypnotic, repetitive, but really groovy.

not really "druggy" but it fits the floaty, repetitive, groovy criteria.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KrKDZMd9RU

I think some critics and shops call that description "beatdown house" or "Detroit beatdown".

yes, I think detroit beatdown belongs here. here's one of those:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjzzE-tvf6k

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpZoTihI8T8

I wish there were a way to mix deep house and trance without ending up with prog.

Just look at the tracklist on the first Trance Europe Express compilation, its got the Black Dog, Aphex Twin, Orbital.

http://www.discogs.com/Various-Trance-Europe-Express/master/43465

by the way, the track that fits my criteria the best is Theo's "Falling Up."

that's more like it, pattern loader. (I'm talking about "jazzy trance")

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xauvwT_u1JA

It's weird her profile isn't bigger considering she sounds like a cross between Theo Parrish and Burial.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHRW1vI6XqA&feature=related

It's weird her profile isn't bigger considering she sounds like a cross between Theo Parrish and Burial.

Could be the terrible stage name.

LB can't be doing too bad, she's playing at Panorama Bar this weekend.

it's the name

I'd say it has more to do with her not looking like Nina Kraviz.

BOOM

Nice thread. I can't help thinking of Juju & Jordash when I read through. Their Deepfrequency show is wacky (in a good way) and deep. For older stuff Bobby Konders needs a mention!

this thread is great, and the psychedelic thread gr80 linked to is great, too. i had never heard of emperor machine before! it's amazing!!

re: emperor machine

a lot of cool stuff like that came out on dc recordings. bits of some of their (haha) death before distemper mixes are really really good. idjut boys one for example gets really good, but it takes ages to get there and there are a few clunkers at the start iirc

Really liking the mix Durr, nice tight mixing and great track selection. Now I need to step up and get one together myself.
