2018 sounding like 1992 heard for the first time 2024đ«Ł
Very nice album from Argentina, was released in 2000
really really dope new thing
âProducer, drummer, and DJ based in Los Angeles. Bobbyyâs debut album âBucketsâ is an homage to his deep love and understanding of music history, incorporating elements of Chicago House a la Larry Heard, alongside raw, sample-based production reminiscent of Madlib or Daedelus, all the while basking in 808âs.â
Sometimes certain music just transports you back to a specific spot in the distant past. Am thinking E London and Visions, East Village and Dalston Superstore and all the messiness that lurked within. Visions in particular, that retro video store with a double life after dark. Coming up and suddenly all the chatter blurring in mono all around you. This is the sort of âheads downâ house that would be playing. Magical times.
Used to love Matt Thompsonâs Kiss FM Manchester radio shows back in the mid to late 90s, he had great taste and used to get lots of interesting guests on to interview.
The first place I heard Moodymann, Daft Punk, Dj Cam, lot of Moâ Wax stuffâŠI just found this interview with Gary Cobain from FSOL talking about and playing tracks from his musical influences, I guess this is from around about 1994.
Really nice that. Not heard it before, never made it to Visions but I can picture the sort of vibe you mention from that record.
Gerd is such a hero but Iâve found a lot of his recent stuff feels a bit phoned in
Yeah, was a wicked little sweaty low-ceiling rave pit. Heard everything in there from italo cosmic electro through to chicago, detroit and even the odd mylo or inxs edit.
A ritual schooling for me c/o rick hopkins, johnny 5, john daly, fabrizio mamarella, toby tobias, gene hunt, miles simpson, dolan bergin amongst others
A fiver entry, tenner at a push. All night long. Imagine that now weeps
Booze didnât extend far beyond red stripe in an ice barrel. Jugs of free water along bar
Remember this really talented guest called John Heckle who came down to dj from Liverpool with a load of acid/electro, stuff off Mathematics records which somehow all got nicked or left on train of shame, a messy one!
Going back many years here. Still doing stuff by sounds of it
That Thunder video is so good. Iâm sure there were a few more of the Gene Hunt night that have now vanished. âItâs not every day we 'ave a Gene Hunt situationâ.
Lot of great memories of this one. Nice one came out last year on an Irish label, needs pitching down a fair bit to go with anything I play but of a similar ilk (might even be an old track tbh). But John has such a touch with strings. Beltran remix is nice too.
Also should give a rec to the label owners stuff, which is really nice:
âEfficient Space welcomes Th Blisks to the fold with their mutant strain of melodica dub, torched hip hop breaks, post-punk and procession song. lo-fi Aussie dreampop supergroup with a gorgeously sun-crisped sense of bliss and dazed introspection, somewhere between Saint Etienneâs âFoxbase Alphaâ, Teresa Winter x YL Hooi.â
Iâve been enjoying this album a lot.
This is really rather good. Loads of mid tempo, floaty, early house bits
