I like the Classixx joint and the other Juan track from this year a lot, not sure about this one. But I would be so down with a Nancy Whang album.

I like this a lot - the early 90s piano house vibe is awesome. Reminds me of Edward's World's "Soul Roots".

Good, good stuff.

melody's too infantile or something. prefer "all you're waiting for"

love everything I've got of these guys, but find sorting through house music in general tiresome and bewildering. did not like the Studio stuff I heard. what else is out there that's like this?

a) we don't know what you've got of these guysb) Studio are not house musicc) we don't know what you've heard of Studio
it would be fun to answer your question otherwise!

I heard West Coast and was bored by it. I have Less Than Human, the Future Will Come, Feel So Good DJ Kicks, By the Time I Get to Venus and some other 12" I can't remember right now

Are you a fan of DFA acts in general?
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Saturday, 1 February 2014 00:23 (ten years ago) link
Well I like LCD Soundsystem. Never listened to hot chip or their other acts.

Definitely stoked. "the Nancy Show"? This is an album I've been waiting for.

also this is amazing
― boxedjoy, Wednesday, 25 June 2014 19:16 (nine years ago) link
i'm in love with this song. it combines a bunch of my favorite sounds right now... menacing EBM pulse, gritty/down and out guitars, mystic space vibes, sickly sweet synthpop, and it's fucking pretentious and bombastic. amazing.

I tried to keep it to songs she sings more than just back up vocals on so lots of LCD stuff was left off. It's not meant to be a comprehensive list of appearances.

can we get this thread locked so ppl only use the correctly-spelled one?
― dave matthews' gland (sic), Tuesday, 9 September 2014 14:28 (nine years ago) link
Is there a particular "The Juan Maclean" thread that has been serving as an all-purpose catch-all thread?
― how's life, Tuesday, 9 September 2014 14:40 (nine years ago) link
Because otherwise, I'll probably just go ahead and correct the spelling in this thread's title.
Yes please do!(Most tJM action is here: Happy House - the Juan Maclean but a dedicated artist thread would be great imo)
― willem, Tuesday, 9 September 2014 14:45 (nine years ago) link
Holy shit, I really love the new album.
― Herbie Handcock (Murgatroid), Thursday, 11 September 2014 05:30 (nine years ago) link
Release is next week? I've had it on order for ages it seems, hopefully there'll be a download link in the mail soon
― willem, Thursday, 11 September 2014 09:44 (nine years ago) link
The release is supposed to be next week but Amazon now have it listed as coming out on October 7th. Hope that's not the case. I ordered it ages ago too.

feel like nancy whang is weirdly unheralded
― jaymc, Friday, 12 September 2014 05:48 (nine years ago) link
ooh yeah i am liking the sound of this album
― jaymc, Friday, 12 September 2014 06:28 (nine years ago) link
whoa, "charlotte"!
― jaymc, Friday, 12 September 2014 06:37 (nine years ago) link
ha the retro typeface on the album cover reminds me of the one on the lena dunham memoir.
― jaymc, Friday, 12 September 2014 06:38 (nine years ago) link
i dunno, her unheralding seems pretty pedestrian to me
― a cheese has occurred (electricsound), Friday, 12 September 2014 06:45 (nine years ago) link
Really great and solid throughout with APCS the obvious standout. Love A Simple Design right now.Even Love Stops Here and Charlotte are more or less listenable, although I would prefer a vinyl special release with just the Whang-tracks.
It's on Spotify, btw.

He actually messaged HOt M3ss before the pandemic asking to play and we were talking to him about it. I'm not quite sure he realised it was a 150 person capacity club though!

I still managed to miss that
unreleased joint [by Juan Maclean (Master DJ & Producer)] opening his "chuggy and druggy" set on Beats In Space this week
got released in the pando as well:
Jun 2020: Are We Still Dreaming? one 12-in left for sale / soundcloud or that he had another collabo duo:
Jul 2019: Longlost - Take 8
He also did a 2-hour "Psychedelic House, Techno and Ambient" radio mix to launch Ritual Device, which looks like it might now be a monthly thing:
Ritual Device with Juan MacLean @ The Lot Radio 03 - 29 - 2021
