just a rolling list of things i've just downloaded from them:

Royksopp - Beautiful Day Without You (Rex the Dog Remix)
- not so great for Rex but still - it's odd how slow his tracks seem sometimes.

New Flesh - Chocolate Bubbles
- an 'interlude' from the album on Big Dada with a nice woozy electronic vibe. unfortunately nothing much else stands out on the LP but potential is there.

Uffie - Pop The Glock (Sebastian Remix)
- strangely short but makes Uffie a lot more bearable - Seb is the best of the Ed Banger repertoire

Surkin - Radio Fireworks
Surkin - Kiss And Fly
- two neat Hystereoesque cut-up electrohouse tracks - maybe a little too repetetive and nagging with the cut-up but i'm sure i won't care when they pop on ipod randomly when on bus

Johnny Dark - Can't Wait
Johnny Dark - Never Happened
Johnny Dark - Its Too Close
Johnny Dark - HCD2
- v cool cut-up dark leftfield soul - a bit more 'danceable' than the Junior Boys.

Blackalicious - A To G
Blackalicious - Alphabet Aerobics
- aw precious college memories...

Scritti Politti - The Boom Boom Bap
Scritti Politti - The Last Time I Looked
Scritti Politti - Hands Up
- last track is straight up proper oldskool hip-hop track. lyrics bit corny but a solid production overall.

Test Icicles - Circle. Square. Triangle (Spank Rock Remix)
- will need more time with this one but imagining it would sound good at one of London's fledgling electro-pop nights publicised on ILE/ILM and relatives.

niobe - In The Sun (w/St.Lindemer & Marcus Schumacher)
niobe - None But One (w/Wechsel Garland)
- dreamy, charming, nostalgic and wistful unplugged works, rich but disciplined in tone. recommended lazy Summer listening. rest of album bears similarities to CocoRosie but without many of the elements you might find annoying in them.

niobe - Cool Alpine (w/Bastian Wegner)
- from same album, a rough yet shiny electro-disco bopper that stands out just for being completely different to anything else on there. somewhere between Out Hud and A Taste Of Honey.


feel free to list and comment on tracks, albums, mixes etc. you've paid to download, even from, i guess, itunes, if you're so inclined. it's another recommendations thread i guess.

they do a good line in out-of-print stupidly limited editions of crunchy techno: Quinoline Yellow for instance, Aphex and Gescom.

Their ROAD subsection's good for dubstep too. wish they had a bit more Skream and Loefah though.

and handy for those OOP electronica cd compilations where you only want the Isan track.

(i use tunetribe for all my Technical Itch needs. 'Implant' is especially good.)

Recommended: the Elecktroids record / e.p. AND the entire Unique 3 catalaog, which is really outstanding. oh yeah, and the Sweet Exorcist album too.....I realize these are all Warp related anyway, but some of my best downloads from there for sure. the original CD's are all really hard to find.

niobe - None But One (w/Wechsel Garland)
This song is so pretty.

...shum, shum, shum

You can get than new Morgan Geist 12" w/ Greenspan (Jr. Boys) on iTunes. I picked it up the other day and have been enjoying if very much, it's a pretty lowkey record. A1 is quite nice.

Is that a nice record, Andy?

PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Friday, 13 October 2006 14:26 (nineteen years ago)

am hoping they'll be adding the entire XL back catalogue soon

;_; (blueski), Friday, 13 October 2006 14:28 (nineteen years ago)

it's worth the money i didn't pay 8)

like most of these free samplers it's (deliberately) mixed. you hear one track you like and go from there, i guess (MAH played the Milanese track on her show last week)

all tracks are previewable on the website btw. and are full previews, not just snippets (they pause after 30 seconds, hit play again and they continue).

Koogy Yonderboy (koogs), Friday, 13 October 2006 14:43 (nineteen years ago)

i recommend the Black Dog stuff on Dust Science - esp. lovin' the old Detroit vibe of Vince Watson's remix of '4 3s 555'

;_; (blueski), Friday, 13 October 2006 14:49 (nineteen years ago)

couldn't agree more re dust science label, tis all rather fine stuff.
the last black dog stuff that was released on soma, riphead ep continued the excellence.

that Black Dog track remix is still pwning in a 90s Soma style.

Black Devel Disco Club EP sounds pretty good/of interest to the likes of YOU.

I find Uffie to be highly bearable.
