Global Communication vs. Chameleon vs. Jedi Knights vs. Link & E621 vs. Reload vs. Secret Ingredients (also now Mark Pritchard solo)

incidentally this [http://www.discogs.com/Mark-Pritchard--The-Hologram/release/1672841] new solo release from Pritchard is amazing. like Portishead's To Kill A Dead Man remade by Bohren & Der Club of Gore.

Jedi Knights - the "i like to boogie" vote

yeah i remember ... was it DJ? or mixmag? or muzik? one of them said "funkier than a ferret doing kung fu in a tracksuit and shelltoes" about the first jedi knights album. and they were RIGHT.

which led me to believe j saul kane was ghostwriting reviews at the time, btw.

The Way (Secret Ingredients Mix) is some pinnacle-of-recorded-sound shit for me so i guess i'll vote for SI. but really, everyone's a winner.

i sold my The Deep/The Way on discogs recently. instant regret.

I voted Reload, for their flawless remix of Aphex Twin's "On"

Man these freaking guys. . . Hard one but I'm going to listen to 76 14 in the next while, so I'll vote then.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

HOLY SHIT GUYS. Mark and Tom are together at GC again and playing 76:14 live! droooooool.

check out the reload forum for info.

"Mark and I can confirm we'll be putting together a run of Global Communication live shows for Q3 2011. Some will be seated concert performances of 76:14 , some will be live club/festival appearances and there will also be a few select back to back DJ appearances."

Apparently they're going to record together again as GC.

Yeah this was on RA back in September. Awesome news.

would go just to hear 14:31

After more than seven years of waiting, another life goal has been resolved:

shit son i'd have sold you mine, that album always disappointed me tbh

Wow! Congratulations on getting a znuzmaz!

which album is that?

reload "a collection of short stories"

ta

Is it that rare or did you just wait awhile? I have three copies!

8====D ~~~ O O O

iirc i grabbed mine from the dollar bin at haight street

exactly the reason I own three copies...

For someone that came of age in the 21st century it's not easy to find. Essentially this was the first time I ever used discogs marketplace, so availability wasn't the big issue, anyways.

7 years of no luck before turning to discogs marketplace, and less than a month later I see A Collection of Short Stories used. Bah...

Wow, this Jedi Knights album is pretty great!

Also, let us never forget:

V surprised at this,LG!

It's excellent, and the track with Linda Perhacs on it is better than anything from her most recent album (I'm assuming she basically wrote the whole song).

Also Garda you need to listen to Parallelograms like immediately.

I have been listening to it in the weeks and months since I highlighted this little known mark pritchard solo record!

Can even tolerate Yorke on this. Is the Beans track the one that is spoken word and is shite?

ha also "Infrared", which I'm assuming is Pritchard himself. For me, he could have lost those two tracks, and the album would be both a better length, and just better overall. But still, great surprise, would absolutely not mind more of the same from him

It is a great and varied record for sure.

Chameleon - Links is one of the very best things they did. The 'solo' in the middle when the previously straight break gets chopped up is just perfectly judged.

The Way (Secret Ingredients Mix) also up there.

yeah links is tremendous

Links still completely rules. As does all their “jungle techno” as Chaos and Julia Set

wait what?

tell me more

This one is the absolute apex of 4/4 hardcore turning into breakbeat led jungle

Actually, this is probably the better mix of Atmosphere. I had this on a Jumpin Jack Frost mixtape where he played the “And Jack boldly declared...” house music monologue over the top of the intro. Legendary

Nice mix and feature over on Test Pressing
