seriously, i defy anyone to listen to listen to the last few minutes of this and tell me it doesnt sound exactly like a "well-produced" danny weed & target track.

bonus contentiousness points for being compiled on that reinforced deepest shade of techno comp.

hmmmm...

it's actually a really great track. but, if anything does actually come of 8-bar, i can totally see people pointing to stuff like this (especially with the tentative broken beat/london connection) as some sort of "forebear", in a kirk degiorgioooo stylee.

haha now that i think of it, wasn't there an interview with wiley or jammer or summink where there were transmat stickers all over their gear?

I sorta hum this to that weird Hitchhiker's Guide song tie-in "Marvin I Love You."

I'm waiting for Mo'Wax to release the "Chronologic" remix EP (and accompanying Simon Reynold's rant.)

It is. According to discogs it's on the second Deepest Shade of Techno comp.

I saw titonton DJ in nyc in 98 or 99. He has serious turntable skills, not just like techno smooth mix and the occasional cut skills but like old-school cut and scratch turntablist call him cutmaster-T and he did some serious damage with 808 State's pacific...still the set was more fun to watch then dance to when he was up to all of that....

I don't know much about Danny Weed & Target but surely those type of hi-hats are heard on any number of techno records?

i was mostly thinking about the staggering of the beats, the pattern.

Roll Deep's old studio had a Transmat sticker on the deck. Cage loves all that old stuff...

is "chronologic" the one with the really beatboxy almost freestyle drums? i'll have to pull out that "deepest shade of.." comp later.

i would like grime/8-bar more if there were more instrumentals, but i guess that defeats the purpose. i do like wiley quite a bit though...i think it's the humour.

"i would like grime/8-bar more if there were more instrumentals, but i guess that defeats the purpose."

??? There's almost always instrumental versions of each tune floating around - sometimes it's finding the vocal version that is difficult!

Mind you I'll accept that there aren't many instrumentals that can stand up completely on their own. Target & Danny Weed's "Fresh Air" is probably the best for this, not too surprisingly.

i just meant that most of the stuff i've heard has had an mc over the top...are there sets floating around that are mc-less?

― tricky disco (disco stu), Monday, 29 March 2004 23:07 (twenty-two years ago)

You know the world is coming to an end when this is a strongo post and not an mt post.

― The Rebukes of Hazard (mjt), Monday, 29 March 2004 23:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Tricky - yeah definitely. Kode-9 for example has done a great set tracing Oriental influences from Exemen's "Far East" (possibly the furthest out dubstep ever got/could get without losing some of its flava) through to Jammer 'n' Wizzbit stuff, and it's 8-bar dominated. I do prefer MC sets but as instrumental sets go that one works wonders.

sounds like a must-hear, it's probably impossible to find though.

(the tune i was thinking about in my first post here was "funk therapy" by morgan geist which is a far cry from grime (and metro area!). i can def see where strongo is coming from wrt to "chronologic" though. the bassline in the first few bars of that track is pure sub-bass pressure. cue the upset neighbors. "um, could you turn down the bass please?" at least it's not 3am! god this comp is good)
