No, best thread of the year!

Larcole (Nicole), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 17:00 (twenty years ago) link

weirdly i think the potential collab im most excited about would be toby keith

trife (simon_tr), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 17:03 (twenty years ago) link

it's not weird, it's the future

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 17:08 (twenty years ago) link

weird that im most excited abt it!!!

trife (simon_tr), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 17:10 (twenty years ago) link

but are we any nearer to soulseek-ing it yet ?

piscesboy, Tuesday, 12 August 2003 17:17 (twenty years ago) link

I hope the real tracklisting isn't too disappointing after Trife and Strongo's stellar effort.

JoB (JoB), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 18:22 (twenty years ago) link

That better not be the cover.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 18:33 (twenty years ago) link

Benjilude = what happens when you put a lovable American movie pet icon on drugs.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 18:34 (twenty years ago) link

it says my browser is too old can someone post it

trife (simon_tr), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 18:36 (twenty years ago) link

I thought Benjilude would be the name of Bennifer's child.

Larcole (Nicole), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 18:44 (twenty years ago) link

Why do you insist on making me cry?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 18:57 (twenty years ago) link

i liked the vocalists on 'Breakaway', 'Broken Dreams' etc. - and they should bring back Slarta John and Glamma Kid who were both wicked, but i guess what would be better is something with Sean Paul that would cover all bases

in other collaborative news, today's paper tells me that kylie (the australian one, not that new kylie dean person) is doing a song with luda on her next album! the PR line reads: "ludacris is a poet and kylie is not afraid of exploring new sounds".

mitch lastnamewithheld (mitchlnw), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 21:25 (twenty years ago) link

kylie minogue f ludacris - can't get you out of my bed

mitch lastnamewithheld (mitchlnw), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 21:27 (twenty years ago) link

I hope it's not another mediocre LP by after-the-hype producers crammed with collaborations (Chemical Brothers, Junkie XL, Prodigy, Fatboy Slim, Groove Armada, Paul Oakenfold, Roni Size), but I my expectations are not high (expecting the usual BJ fare: one or two great singles & lots of boring filler).

Siegbran (eofor), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 21:35 (twenty years ago) link

"boring filler"?!?!

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 21:37 (twenty years ago) link

i think we never could agree on which ones were the filler tracks on "rooty". i still like Tom's reply to a non-'rooty'-getter on the 'spread musical understanding' thread: "imagine they're all singles, it's easy if you try."

mitch lastnamewithheld (mitchlnw), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 21:49 (twenty years ago) link

i will admit that there is certainly a hirearchy of quality when it comes to b jaxx album traxx, but there are rarely if ever any i want to skip ("sexy feline machine" being The One)

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 21:50 (twenty years ago) link

i love SFM, i'd skip Jus 1 Kiss or Get Me Off maybe but everything else is golden and i cannot understand Siegbran's lack of enthusiasm for Basement Jaxx at all

stevem (blueski), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 22:53 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah everyone was always hatin' on "All I Know" but Me & My Mitch are the champion defendas! The whole album is great!

This thread makes me so happy. I read an interview with one of the BJ guys a few months ago and he said the third album was going to be quieter and more soulful and I was thinking "no no no! More body-punishing electrobooty sexbot action!"

Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 23:30 (twenty years ago) link

"i'd skip Jus 1 Kiss or Get Me Off"

b-but Get me Off is clearly the standout track. you silly billy.

weasel diesel (K1l14n), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 23:32 (twenty years ago) link

I skip the pauses between songs because I'm greedy like that

M Matos (M Matos), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 23:40 (twenty years ago) link

hopefully the "crazed stomper" doesn't follow in the footsteps of "do your thing".

and will we be treated to another singles collection? (how much longer can i go without a copy of "acid life" or "i live in brixton"?)

vahid (vahid), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 23:44 (twenty years ago) link

b-but Get me Off is clearly the standout track. you silly billy.

yes.....clearly....

stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 00:06 (twenty years ago) link

"get me off" was the one they tried to give to janet!

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 01:24 (twenty years ago) link

also it is the centerpiece of the mid-album triumverate of uber-greatness.

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 01:25 (twenty years ago) link

its an okay track but i rarely have the desire to hear it - gimme 'All U Crazies' any day

stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 01:26 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah everyone was always hatin' on "All I Know" but Me & My Mitch are the champion defendas!

Finney ur forgetting someone

Andy K (Andy K), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 01:34 (twenty years ago) link

yeah i love all i know too!! and gett me off is okayish but sometimes jus 1 kiss is like the high point of their entire career!! i just listened to remedy and my fav song is still yo yo, i wish it was actually f yo-yo though instead of that lame singer

trife (simon_tr), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 01:37 (twenty years ago) link

I am firmly in the "All I Know" camp--sounds like a Prince & the Revolution B-side

M Matos (M Matos), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 04:17 (twenty years ago) link

oh suddenly everyone's an "all i know" revisionist eh? i was there at the beginning, man.

mitch lastnamewithheld (mitchlnw), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 06:49 (twenty years ago) link

I said what I did about Prince in my Blender review, motherfucker!

M Matos (M Matos), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 06:55 (twenty years ago) link

stop repeating yourself Matos!

New Basement Jaxx single-Acid Love


Did any of you ever get that EP? Acid Luv is such a good track, I played it yesterday after reading this thread. It's like the teletubbies making pop acid house. definitely one to irritate people with on the acid house thread.

I've always loved Yoyo, maybe more than any of their other tracks. I do prefer Remedy to Rooty though. But Get Me Off was such a good record, I really liked the Superchumbo remix which basically just beefed it all up even more and added a few e snare rattles and made it a bit more frantic if that's possible. The original has the delicate touch though, the breakdown where it's does the call and response thing with the melody and the first one is all buff and airy and then that big ignorant bass comes back. Classic.

Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 07:18 (twenty years ago) link

I hope people get the part I'm talking about otherwise that reads extremely weirdly.


Sorry I should also stress that link's from their EP last year, never was a full single release.

Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 07:19 (twenty years ago) link

i'm a bit late to the party, but HOLY FUCKING CRAP gibber gibber etc etc etc.

Ess Kay (esskay), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 09:26 (twenty years ago) link

there is no Jaxx track i actually DISLIKE of course

stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 10:43 (twenty years ago) link

H (Heruy), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 11:45 (twenty years ago) link

so do Northern State hate Basement Jaxx now?

nnnh oh oh nnnh nnnh oh (James Blount), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 18:13 (twenty years ago) link

OK... just gotta say...heard it tonight... it's their best album, I think. Totally hardcore. Operatic stomp. Made me wanna gush.

Ben Williams, Thursday, 14 August 2003 03:09 (twenty years ago) link

MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE DESCRIBE PLEASE PLEASE FUCK FUCK ::explodes::

M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 14 August 2003 03:15 (twenty years ago) link

I think you just did.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 14 August 2003 03:18 (twenty years ago) link

st did you figure out how to make mp3s yet?

minna (minna), Thursday, 14 August 2003 03:21 (twenty years ago) link

hey yeah, how can i hear this lovely album too?

adam west (adamwest), Thursday, 14 August 2003 03:32 (twenty years ago) link

It's harder, Princier, and unhousier than Rooty. Heard it at a bar w/ really cruddy sound and lots of people talking (!) so it's hard to say precisely how great it is. But it's great. Dizzee sounds more and less weird w/ a thick background behind him. Can't wait to get a proper copy to play around in.
