Rolling Dance Partisans 2012

Also, Jimmy Edgar 'For the Children'. Maybe that's more bobbins? I don't fully understand the difference.

is this the thread where you all talk about more beatmaker-y shit

into this song even tho it sounds like something I prob was into like 10 years ago or something

Hey, this Distal album I'm listening to is nice!!

is this the thread where you all talk about more beatmaker-y shit

yes please

"kook" is pretty good, what w/ a great sample, epic synth vibe and creepy "presk" vocal clip, but i still prefer "sweat" (presk & cinnaman)

presk IS killing it though, four for four on dope EPs

btw is it just me or does croydon house sample "sacred cycles"?

Another Presk track, remixing Tessela and Hackman. The rest of the 12" is wicked too.

Anybody like that Kry Wolf track up on XLR8R?

http://www.xlr8r.com/mp3/2012/05/under-my-skin

the first four tracks of this new slugabed album are great, but then it turned into a blur of hi-fi synth-fusion to me (ie no hooks). maybe i shouldn't have tried to listen to it all at once.

NEWFLASH - MOSCA BITES HAND THAT FEEDS

going back to '09 listening to Marcus making this weird, weird house music basically that brings in all these elements, I wanna go back to that. If you want a guitar in your track, that's cool, you can do that. Now in UK bass you cannot have guitars—that's one of the rules. You have to have 808s, big Julio Bashmore bass, a US rap sample repeated, cowbell, a little Burial garage sample and a Deadboy synth that goes "eeewwwaaooo," bending all over the place. And those are the rules now. And you do get a lot of, it's just the same old same old that I get sent. There's so many people making music now, that it's flooded.

Bashmore has actually been using guitar a lot on his recent stuff

I'm really psyched that DJG seems to be extricating himself from dubstep and slowly evolving into something else.

He was way too cool for the kids he was hanging out with IMO.

Having been going over old DMZ tracks in the last few days I was wondering if it makes sense to have a Dance Partisans of the Past thread, encompassing everything from early 00's proto dubstep to cotemporary Bass, or whether assorted thread already suffice?

I wouldn't mind having a place to get nostalgic about my record crates.

Ate a lot of ramen so that I could buy all those DMZ platters.

Oh god, I don't want to think about my current diet when I look at my records in 10 years.

Looks like XLR8R just got bought by Buzzmedia, RIP.

Is there anything resembling an independent English language dance publication left?

Little White Earbuds?

And I by publication I mean something with a separate editorial entity from the marketing department, no offense meant to Sonic Router or any of the other blobs out there.

Blogs, stupid phone.

This next banging track is brought to you by Red Bull Music Academy, Scion A/V, Nike, etc.

oh how i wish that typo had appeared on the fluxblob thread

I would never be that mean to poor Matthew, we used to talk about comic books.

This Resident Advisor review is brought to you by Juno Plus.

you're breaking my heart here

Its just annoying, no need for a coronary.

Canadian rapper turned house producer Sixtoo/Prison Garde.

Bringing that gritty funk from the mean streets of Vancouver.

I'm torn between my desire to hate on the Red Bull Music Academy and my desire to give them a thumbs up for giving away free FLACs.

If EDM is this decade's alternative rock, does that make Skrillex: Eddie Vedder?

My mate Sully was good enough to pop down and do a set for us on Saturday. I may be biased, but the guy needs his own Fabric cd - very cool blends of uk bass and us-style house, lots of cut-up mixes etc.

I know dungeon dubstep is backward looking and not very exciting to most but I'm determined to plumb the depths.

Ok this isn't dungeon, but it's weird and good.

that's cool but also almost entirely based on what is known in my circle as 'the forbidden rhythm'

What kick on the 1 and 2 and snare on the 3 ?

is that the lambada rhythm?

This one? Sounds sort of like a clave, slower reggaeton kind of thing.

Swindle is probably referencing soca more than anything but I'm not 100% sure on that.

Speaking of latin rhythms and dubstep, so psyched for the new Mala album.
