I am getting a little burned out on Euro-juke, "bass music", or whatever you want to call it.

Every time I try to get a mix together I just end up listening to the Sepalcure album a lot and wishing Machinedrum would quit messing around. Also do I like Salva? Maybe?
I feel like I probably should.

Yeah, there does seem to be some level of them just not getting it, not that I'm any more "down" with the kids because I saw a footwork crew do their thing to a Linkin Park song once.

Well the tash wins in the cornball stakes obv.
Both their latest albums are kinda arse tho. Distal's was just a bit boring, rigid and grey. Addison Grooves sounded liek a remix of an old Diplo album... if he ever made one I dunno. They've both done some good singles though, Addison esspecialy.

i don't think i've ever heard an addison groove track i enjoy, and i've never heard a distal track at all

I like Addison Groove, but I saw him play live a month ago and it was just bland. Haven't listened to the album, mostly cause the set was so bland. Machinedrum I will rep for certainly. Distal, I dunno. Boss of the south is fun for like 2 minutes then gets boring.
― EDB, Sunday, 20 May 2012 08:51 (1 year ago) Permalink
This might be the best Distal track...
or
All his stuff kinda gets annoying or boring if you don't mix out of it fast though.
Pretty much like all the AG singles to some extent. Dumbshit, Sexual prob stand the test of time the best.
Not feeling Machinedrum at all really.

Salva does not equal Slava, they do both make bass music though.

Ugh that picture of distal... Anyways, if we're talking corny, then I say that French Fries - "Yo Vogue", as representative of the dirtybird take on footwork via uk bass, is surely the corniest of the corny.

lol I know Distal irl but only learned this week that he was a "serious" musician this week when a friend posted the pfk review on fb, wtf @ me right?
― Euler, Sunday, 20 May 2012 20:44 (1 year ago) Permalink
i like french fries! i like both addison groove and distal, i just feel like they look silly. if i could sum it up, i might say distal : ed banger :: addison groove : bathing ape. or i might say distal : ninja tune :: addison groove : mo'wax. i am predisposed to like addison groove because when i was young i lusted after freestyle bikes and those shoes. addison groove looks like he wants an ice cream, distal looks like he wants breast milk.
i also like their european take on juke and footwork music. people accuse it of being empty and thin but its just effectively spaced out. like the music of these cerebral and malnourished young creepers
