ru a funky listener on the low k3v, or just dabbling?

kind of both - i basically dig most of the stuff regulars of this thread recommend (and this is UK funky house was on my 09 ballot i think), but i don't keep up with the scene enough to be considered a head or anything
― kl0p's son (k3vin k.), Monday, 7 February 2011 23:55 (thirteen years ago) link
cool! try and holla when u like something though, the 50 people around the world perving on me tim and a handful of other dudes vibe can be a bit oppressive. (I DID SOME OF MY LINKS IN GOO.GL SO I KNOW THIS).
not to presume on ur level of depth but generally speaking for an american totally divorced from the competing local contexts and logics i would think that signal mix a couple of posts upthread might be pretty fun if you haven't already checked it - just all the pure pop singles spectrum steez. would be interested in ur opinions!
― r|t|c, Tuesday, 8 February 2011 00:19 (thirteen years ago) link
(also totally off-topic but would i be right in guessing that that kandi album for the r&b thread a month ago is proving tricky to errm, procure for preview purposes? i can sort that out too.)

no i got my hands on that kandi album, i remember really liking the first track and wanting to give the rest anothe chance but never really got around to it. i think i have to be in the right mindset to put on such a grown-ass record; the craft was there but i think i just wasn't in the mood for that style at that time

err, marcus' on a heavy sunday roast rotation, right? the 'dark undergorund' ep was mostly forgettable, but, dunno, maybe in the context of a dj set it can prove to be more interesting.
that set with shantie & ranking will be my first 2011 marcus set. is the rinse fm site still indecisive?
kinda enjoyed the signal mix. disappointed with 'in control' by screama & farah.
― rusty_allen, Tuesday, 8 February 2011 16:16 (thirteen years ago) link
oh i don't know about that, it's kinda cute? farah being able to do a scarily spot-on kid sister impression is a thing i did not know before at any rate.

Listened to the first few tracks of the Marcus/Rankin set on the way to work:
Screama ft Phe Phe - Never Say Bye - all time classic obvGTE ft Kelsey - Something On Your Mind - this is A++!?? [this old chestnut] - have a feeling this is either Marcus/Bassboy or Madfingers?
Thinking about Sunday Roast vs Dubplate Wonder 2009 (see r|t|c's comparison upthread) - diff. with DW may be how thoroughly (but subtly) he has absorbed that sort of 2-step/r&b groove logic where the groove really wraps itself around the vocals, it makes the percussion and basslines much more thrilling (in the sense of there being something at stake in the choice to place the snare here rather than there) than in SR's straight tribal-into-deep-house "rollers". Whereas Dubplate Wonder is (was? what's dude up to) "deep" in the same way that The Dreem Teem were deep at the end of 2007.
Pretty sure r|t|c identified way upthread the inherent lurking danger of roller-mentality: hat tip to you.

Last night I was in a club where in amongst lots of dubstep and minimal techno and very "serious" tunes the DJ decided to play Addictive's "Domino Effect (DJ Naughty remix)" and it was a very clear highlight of my night - I don't think there's a single bad funky version of that tune.
― o0o00h really? (boxedjoy), Thursday, 10 February 2011 23:05 (thirteen years ago) link
Okay excited about checking that Ill Blu set.
I don't think there's a single bad funky version of that tune.
Trying to remember if there are others apart from Naughty, O.B. and Dubplate Wonder? Each of those are excellent, yes.
― Tim F, Friday, 11 February 2011 06:53 (thirteen years ago) link
Crazy Cousinz version too, which is also great, if not as great as other Crazy Cousinz productions.
― o0o00h really? (boxedjoy), Friday, 11 February 2011 08:51 (thirteen years ago) link
never heard the dubplate wonder remix, iirc. o.b. = personal fav.
that ill blu set looks great. thx.
― rusty_allen, Friday, 11 February 2011 16:21 (thirteen years ago) link
Rusty if you haven't heard the dubplate wonder remix you haven't heard his Wonderland 2009 set either! This must be rectified!

the blurb is kinda pointless, tho :
"Elusive may be a word that is easily chucked about in todays scene but despite being regarded as one of the most feted UK Funky / House production teams in the country they rarely let go of their original material. There's a handful of remixes for underground and major label artists, the masterful Bellion twelve inch for Hyperdub and the odd appearance on pirate radio but that’s pretty much it."
― rusty_allen, Friday, 11 February 2011 16:30 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah it's kinda... not true?
― Tim F, Friday, 11 February 2011 16:37 (thirteen years ago) link
"Chelt" really is such a banger.
― Tim F, Friday, 11 February 2011 16:40 (thirteen years ago) link
That Ill Blu mix is so fucking intense. I don't think it's possible to concoct a scarier beat than "Monsta".
― Tim F, Sunday, 13 February 2011 21:09 (thirteen years ago) link
Though the other new tunes all give it a red hot go. Interesting use of stuttery "pon de floor" snares on several of them. Only Ill Blu can be this macho and assimilationist and yet remain so vibey, it's actually kinda remarkable.
― Tim F, Sunday, 13 February 2011 21:23 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm listening to cooly g's boiler mix and there's a track that caught my attention around 34:00. The lyrics are something like this: "Just like the rain your love fall down. I wanna feel the rain." Can anyone ID it? Thanks.

Re: Bhangra Knights - are we far enough away from the early 00s so that bhangra-sampling funky sounds inspired and fresh rather than lazy arse? I think so.

xp haha glad it wasnt just me that felt some long-dormant vestigial shame rear up at getting excited about that track title. but yeah no i totally agree.
― r|t|c, Friday, 18 February 2011 12:33 (thirteen years ago) link
ill blu really are kinda outgrowing the scene now though (in terms of the music itself rather than popularity). can't help thinking of them as a redone without a gaga, a danja without a britney - i'd love to hear them with a vocalist (not a rapper) with enough character to push back against their productions.
i expected more of them for the new princess nyah single (can't remember the title, not worth linking anyway) but frustratingly they only regressed to a sort of budget shondrae/bangladesh.

#14 - YES DUMPLIN THIS IS THE RUFFNESS

#20 - is this some next 'house girls' already?? monster
LOVE this.
#24 - YES FUZZY LOGIK U LITTLE BEAUTY
Classic fruity fuzzy vibes.
#26 - lol fuck right off what is this madness
!!!!! When this tune drops it's the biggest shock ever. Total Banger, but I'm also getting an Eric Morillo kinda vibe...
#29 - attention tim x2
haha do you just assume I like the spacey deep tunes. This is great though, so guilty as charged I guess.
