Joy Orbison

Been listening to his new singles 'The Shrew Would Have Cushioned the Blow' and 'BRKLN CLLN' all day. I think he's already deserving of his own thread.

it's all about "So Derobe" for me at the moment, but HYPH MNGO was probably my #1 single from last year. Loving the Four Tet remix as well.

for me "Hyph Mngo" is all about the Andrea Saag gospel-house remix now. loving "Brkln Clln" too

Yah <3 so derobe

where can i hear this andreas saag vers.?

also, u r up late

I don't really get the rapture this dude seems to bring out in people. Everything I've heard sounds nice and impeccably produced but I'm just not feeling it - Hyph Mngo included.

i like hyph but since then most of his stuff doesnt really sound that distinct from all the other guys doing this sort of post dubstep house/techno thing. all very well put together and sonically you cant fault it and i like the kinda contemplative/'deeper', sort of sub aquatic sound of it all, but it does kinda wash over you after a bit. the new chill out maybe?

Hyph sounds absolutely perfect in the context of Scuba's Substance Mix. Love it.

Joy hasn't changed it up for the new one (Shrew) - still very much the same sound palette. But I like it.

hype mngo.

basically agree w/mdc - i really love "hyph mngo" and "wet look" but not more than tracks by other artists in the same ballpark (gimme subeena, ikonika, guido, greena any day), newer stuff hasn't totally grabbed me yet.

very smashable imo

Yeah, that Andreas Saag Remix is great, I think I prefer it to the original for aforementioned gospel quality, It just makes it that much more of an arms flailing to the sky shouting out in euphoria kind of glorious.

I haven't heard a ton of his singles, but I like Hyph Mngo and the Four Tet remix quite a bit. What I really love is his "DLDRMS001" mix, which I don't even remember where I downloaded it from - but is easily found via google. I have listened to that thing once a day for the past few weeks.

Yeah that mix is terrific.

His set was pretty fat at Plan B last night! Loads of old garage to kick of with.

Sorry, kick off with. I've yet to go to sleep.

yeah he's been fantastic every time i've seen him, really fun DJ. shouts to his ridiculously hot girlfriend, perenially dancing in the dj booth.

I know Scuba a bit through a friend, was chatting to him at the night and he told me that Joy Orbison is Ray Keith's nephew.

! Awesome.

todd edwards remix one of my tunes of the year

so another good single -- has he released a bad one yet?

kind disappointed by the four-on-the-floor beats, but that's just me. i guess his synths & hooks have been stronger than his drums in general.

Going house is an excellent look for him.

increasingly frustrated by Doldrums not being available in the US - neither 001 or the 002 "BB" ever made it stateside afaik, now 001 is going for $75 on Discogs and 002 $40 and up. Why no re-press, is there really no demand??

"Ladywell" is an Usher sample and a fucking awesome track.

Milk & Honey

There must be demand but I think he's playing it safe and down low cos of all that hype he got the other year. Just trying to find his feet and natural audiance prob.

Wouldn't mind a copy of the alps myself. Saw something recently about how Hard Wax apparently picked up 250 copies of it (of a pressing of 1000). Which is kind of nuts.

yeah "ladywell" is amazing - i think i definitely prefer it to "hyph mngo" even

Him and Ben UFO were pretty good at PP last night. All very house & nineties garage, played Nu Birth's Anytime, Roy Davis Jnr's Gabriel and finished on SWV!

It's hilarious that he's related to Ray Keith. How cool is it for your uncle to have made Renegade - Terrorist.

man i love that todd edwards remix

also that ellipsis track sounds great

While I still think the full name "joy orbison" is really stupid, I call first dibs on using Boy Georbison

lol

he had to cancel on the night with ben ufo in dc and tonight's his make-up. from 10:30-12? ehhhhh.

Sucks. I saw him last Saturday and he was amazing. Surprised he hasn't been given a Fabriclive edition or whatever.

Microsoft has released an alpha version of a new Skype app, called Skype Mingo, to the Google Play Store. The app aims to be your "ultimate communications hub, providing native calling, SMS, and contacts management capability".

new full-length mixtape debut (?) is good

i've been avoiding him because i vaguely remember misogyny claims from a few years back but can't find anything with a google. am i mistaken?

Hyph Mngo still sounds really good to me

i am pretty sure you are mistaken.

Yeah fwiw I don't remember anything like that.

Really enjoyed listening through the new album/mixtape yesterday, definitely reckons with some classic '10s post-dubstep vibes that I thought he had abandoned forever.

ok thanks, guess i need to dig in lol

This is really good. It's really quite moving, and not just because of the vocal samples.

I suspect I know who map is mistaken about but it's certainly not Joy O!

The straight-housiest track on this, Better, is really gorgeous.

The pitchfork review of the album makes reference to Charles Webster re that track and there is something of that there.

yes, i was totally mistaken, to be clear.

Really love the new album, feels nostalgic and of its moment all at once

very boring. the beginning of the end of UK dance music for me.

Damn dogg harsh toke

like sure all his tracks sound pretty fun on pills whilst chatting up a sociology grad from goldsmiths but when sober it does nothing for me, whereas 2step is magical.

which I guess is the point of dance music to a degree, but I'm firmly of the school that I should be able to enjoy all functional club music that I like sober, including relentless banging techno or speedcore. I'm not of the temperament to go out and get wasted every weekend, anymore.

Is Sicko Cell actually his biggest hit?

does he have a hit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aa_PDKKc2_A

I meant in the underground dance music sense. I am familiar with Hyph Mngo duh, but I'm positing that Sicko Cell may have actually gotten way more club play and made a bigger impact?

Someone could poll all the singles & collabs he released between Hyph Mngo and this album, there are so many: https://www.discogs.com/artist/1564482-Joy-Orbison

He's never been my #1 fave or anything but there are a lot of gems.

Listening to this now and "Better" is gorgeous

fave tracks are that and "layer 6"

big room tech house tool is actually his hit next to hyphn go. At least in the UK clubs. Sikko Cell sounded cheap and tbf still does. But then the post-dubstep lot have generally been a regressive bunch. Blawan was the only geezer in that orbit who had a real talent for detailed, snappy drum sounds, in a way its a shame hes only really making straight techno but also the scene had no room for someone with decent production chops like that. That fram/iddy release just sounded so much more devastating in a club when it come out, it was hard to compete with it. Lavender as well.

Oh and Untold also had good production chops as well. That Purify thing he did very early in Hessle's history is a mad one, like J Dilla on crystal meth. Really mind blowing stuff.

my eyes are rollng out of my head re this:

as for the last post... flagged, unless it's a joke which surely it can only be. Excellent pastiche though and well-deployed, I think. Got to be a joke, though. Can't not be a joke though, surely. Hysterical.

fuck, I just realised it was the same guy twice.

Dying at "geezer" though.

I gotta say I don't think Sicko Cell has aged well, possibly because it got rinsed so much at the time that people got fed up of it. Everything else he's done still sounds good to me today.

Loving the new one too, I've barely been listening to club music since lockdown started but am prepared to make an exception for this. Also loving that he's made a drill beat, would love to hear him do more of that. As far as I know that sound hasn't crossed over into club music but like I said I'm not up to speed with it so who knows.

Also I can't think of any other vinyl releases that have been described as mixtapes, so that's a first for my record collection

I really enjoyed this walking through the city centre at 7.30am this morning, just the right mix of Four Tet delicate sentimentality and microhouse trippiness for the sun rising. But even though the beats and basslines are fully present I wouldn't really think of this as "club" music.

Nice précis. The tracks are too short, for a start, but I suspect you mean something else.

Roy Orbison = I Bro on Rosy

yeah i can't think of any club context to play any of this in but it's really nice so far
