Info:Partial tracklist from Soma website:1 D. Uni. Son - Orange 2 Cabanne - Boulinge 3 John Thomas - Basilic 4 Tadeo - Bateria Lup! 5 Samim And Michal - 6 Framework - 7 Lineas De Nazca 8 Serafin - Starship Discotheque 9 P. Specke & D. Maxim 10 Matt John - Perlon 11 Butane - Next 12 Solieb - Lovesong 13 Donnacha Costello - Ok, That's Great, Start Over 14 Phage And Daniel - Chicks 'N Chips 15 Adam Beyer - Walking Contradiction 16 2000 And One - Sunday 17 Alejandro Vivanco 18 Ricardo Villalobos - Ichso 19 Thomas Melchior/Luciano - Father 20 Huggotron By J. Dahlback - Glasshouse 21 Kuniyuki - Earth Beats (Percussion Dub)
I'm intrigued by how thoroughly it departs from the current hit-driven format of so many house/techno mixes. Villlalobos and Beyer will be practically the only names familiar to most listeners not deeply immersed in the minimal scene - and there are even a few names on there that I don't know. (Not like I'm the arbiter of all things micro, but I do spend, uh, a fair amount of time in its crawlspace, after all.)
It's also a totally Lucianoesco mix, albeit condensed to fit into a CD -- and not a 6-hour after-party -- but holy shit does it convey the feeling of his sets, really subtly mixed, filled to the brim with tiny details, hooky in small doses but following an almost untraceable arc otherwise. I'm only on my first listen, but oh. My. Yeah.

Ewan Pearson's installment was like that too...if that turns out to be a theme of sorts for the series I will be overjoyed. Pearson's had so many great tunes that were new to me, and after that seeing the second has a tracklisting full of artists I've never heard of is wonderfully exciting in a perverse way.

sleeparchive/monolake is totally the kind of show you could go to by yourself. i think it's better that way. i saw monolake at WMF in berlin last year and it was one of the most stunning and immersive shows i've ever seen. you won't be able to speak or even notice the people around you--it's a bit like the third hour of an acid trip--so it's better to go alone.

the magical quality of monolake really depends on the sound system, though. their music needs a great sound system and a really big space. the summer location of wmf last year was perfect for this because it's half indoors and half outdoors, so it's really airy and there's space to move around, and there are plenty of odd dark little corners to hide in (if you get too lost in music.) and if you look up you can see the stars, which is always a big plus.

well
wtf is this club closing at 3 for?!?!!?
as for plip-plop seems to be popular absolutely everywhere except for scotland. if you substitute "england" for scotland" this might be about right. with the sort of acts appearing up there (eg er...at yr night!) im not sure this applies. but essentially, yeah, fuck the british isles.
i mean, i know what promoters at clubs are saying "oh its not popular, it wont get enough people in" but srriously thats fucked up given how big it is elsewhere, in civilisation

DJ-Mag seems to inhabit a bizarro world where UK progressive house and trance DJs are still #1. it's really very strange to see them dealing with German minimal techno stuff with the same star DJ/having it/next big thing mindset.

What kind of question is this? Are we in 2006? Or 1996?
I'm liking this Luciano mix. It's not too dissimilar from the Audion Fabric CD, except that mix has polarized this board whereas the Luciano one has received almost universal praise. But Audion's mix meanders and doesn't go anywhere AFAIC, unlike Luciano's -- so, mystery solved.

hi dere, outside of london this is still the case in clubland. therefore, the mags (all 2 of them haw haw) reflect this. minimal stuff here only makes it into big clubs at places where the audience go anyway and have no idea whos playing, they have very little draw on their own merits as far as i can tell.

Yo Ambrose I finally picked up Poker Flat Volume 4 cos I saw it cheap. I've listened to the first disc, it's okay I guess, but I love love love that Alexi Delano track! It's even more LFO/Forgemasters than any recent Get Physical!

Update: Ambrose that Jeff Samuels mix is amazing! Nearly every track is a stunner! Actually it's a really good survey of current minimal, which is ironic considering it's all Poker Flat tracks. I also really like the Samuel tracks/remixes, maybe I'd just heard the wrong stuff cos I'd always found him too dry, but here he's all bouncy! Maybe's he like the Euro Derrick Carter.

The irony is he's shoehorned himself into this scene anyway, he was electroclash 2 or 3 years ago, there's nothing wrong with evolving or changing but surely Villalobos and Luciano and co were playing minimal back then too?

the original is good too with more overt big room style. reminds a bit of "in white rooms" although this year i might say that about every record with the delayed one-note bass riff.
― breakfast pants (disco stu), Saturday, 8 July 2006 16:48 (nineteen years ago)
i was a naysayer but i 'got it' a month or so ago. before, i thought it was too fast, and that it didn't have much emotional depth. now i love it but not for any concrete reason (i am used to the tempo now, and i do know the songs. that could be enough). perhaps part of it is that i feel like there's been a dearth of good new mixes in the past month or two, so i've been going back to old MANDY sets and Eulberg and Sascha Funke and this.
