Inspired by

house/techo/etc - again, very modern and futuristic at times, or at least it used to be, but no real songs, really.

Can anyone reccomend some house/techno that evokes the roaring 20s? Or the spirit of the 1890's?

Or Caveman House music?

If not, how would I go about making some?!?!!?

"Tribal House" ?

no -- 'it USED TO BE futuristic' is key here. which means that techno from '92/'93 is bang on the money just... about... NOW.

Srcuff's 'get a Move on is 20's-ish hosue..

i imagine you could make some pretty sick house/techno using big band samples but it would probably just sound like turntablism

Sir Jeremy Augustus Hutley Of Granith Hall (Cari Lekebusch) - The Kattajaq Story. it's like sitting around a campfire, at the heart of Van Diemen's Land, in Pliocene times, waiting for a spirit possession to take hold of your tribe's council of elders.

Don't do it. You will sound like Moby.

would the 19th Century electronica of Matmos - The Civil War count?

― echoinggrove (echoinggrove), Friday, 14 January 2005 14:31 (twenty years ago)

oh yea, matmos. i havent listened to it yet

Hausmeister's Weiter has a very hard-to-place vibe - '20s? ballroom? - as do many of Niobe's albums and the music of Jörg Follert (Wunder/Wechsel Garland).

I think Mickey Hart has the corner on this.

U Got Me Up (Cajmere's Underground Goodie Mix) which was the track that Doop thing ripped off - here it is

this one should work

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 14 January 2005 15:22 (twenty years ago)

Srcuff's 'get a Move on is 20's-ish hosue..

this track is basically just Moondog's "Birds Lament" with some not very interesting banging going on underneath.

check out Cajmere's "Horny" 12"
based on big band horn samples

Greens Keepers and the G-Swing massive (No Assembly Required/Justin X 7 Dan Long and others).

jamie lidell's remix of herbert's ´the audience´ has a wicked motown snare-kick drum thing going on

Surely a massive percentage of house music has zero futuristic (or historic) tendencies whatsoever! Unless funk and disco vanished from the planet in 1982.

― nabiscothingy, Friday, 14 January 2005 23:05 (twenty years ago)

well, how about regressive tendencies??!?1

i would like to hear sandy denny singing over a house jam

― noizem duke (noize duke), Friday, 14 January 2005 23:21 (twenty years ago)

that Biosphere album that uses all the Debussy samples

― Mike O. (Mike Ouderkirk), Friday, 14 January 2005 23:24 (twenty years ago)

sandy denny house sounds great..
regressive tendencies seem to be a constanst undercurrent in a lot of non-acid tekno (of the k variety) "forward the revolution" by spiral tribe is the only title i can think of off hand. kind of a distant cousin to the whole ethno/tribal trance/electronica thing.
