Rolling Dance Partisans 2012

yup - are you in town?

Yeah, I thought it was funny that we both listen to and make the same general kinds of music in the same city and haven't ever met.

Unless you hang out at the DJ shop or know Wyatt Agard, I used to go to his Ableton classes.

yeah that is crazy given what a small town this is, although i don't go out to a ton of shows/dj nights unless i'm playing or a friend is. i might have met wyatt once through my friend nate, but don't know him.

we should hang though, lemme know if you have a gig coming up or whatever.

I pretty much gave up deejaying when I started to get serious about making beats again, I've got the Traktor setup but its been gathering dust for a while.

Need to get back on that horse soon, I guess.

word. we should probably take it off-thread but i've been doing Chants shows at least monthly, come say hi sometime!

this Arca record is inspiring

Aardvarck's last couple releases have been huge sounding, gigantic drums.

Feel a migraine coming on.

At risk of turning this thread into my blog, anyone listened to the NeferTT release on Hotflush?

I've been trying to figure out who it might be, Falty DL, Machinedrum, maybe Boxcutter?

Pyramel is cool.

It's a duo i think? Falty DL is definitely involved though

I could definitely see this being Falty DL and Boxcutter, sounds like a halfway point between their styles.

forget what counts as dance and what counts as bobbins and what counts as bass, but a friend of mine who spins in the city a lot and constantly is putting stuff together but until recently hasn't bothered putting anything out got a track on this top billing comp. http://topbillinmusic.bandcamp.com/album/bass-bonez-compiled-by-flipperi-2

haven't gotten a chance to spin the whole thing, but his joint is 'Always Got My Back' and I've been enjoying it / think it's good enough to call folks attn to.

cashemere cat y'al

this track is pretty dope, one of those times that 4-on-the-floor really works for me: braille, rise

How did this thread just sink? Anyways, it's obviously time for a '13 thread, but until then, THIS, THIS, THIS

Seems like most of the producers that I like from this thread ended up making techno. Or maybe I'm just listening to more techno, dunno.

just realized this thread went dead mid-year, wow

must've been around the time when all the post-dubstep dudes switched over to techno and house

Having EDM artists colonize your scene has a way of making people a little musically conservative, even Ikonika is talking about listening to Legowelt. Kryptic Minds, Untold, lots of people.

The other options are what? White boy juke? Trap? Endless Burial ripoffs?

I'm old, LOL.

i don't like the idea of splitting techno / house and partisans anymore

it seems insular

When I started the first partisans thread I wanted it to be for everything, then a separate thread was requested. So its fine by me.

I'm fighting a perverse desire to start a rolling EDM thread.

The finest in frat-house, bro-step and neon synth puke only.

If I recall there were originally impassioned pleas to merge the bobbins and partisans thread (since it is, y'know, pointless segregation), but the ILM massive (appropriately being dance music partisans about it) weren't having it.

Anyways, I just need somewhere to post this!

Since I'm the creator of bobbins 2013 thread, I declare that you can post "partisan stuff" there. No need to make a new thread.
