We are not worthy (of DJ Q or r!t!c)

I will listen out for the bit designed for me.

Man the way he realises that "Harmony" is a secret darkside dub of "Ghosts" us just O_O

Or is just

Tim F, Monday, 2 February 2015 21:07 (nine years ago) link

This set is even better than last week's. All cylinders.

Tim F, Monday, 2 February 2015 21:27 (nine years ago) link

Looooollll at the "Darlin" / "Inside of Me" pairing.

Tim F, Monday, 2 February 2015 21:32 (nine years ago) link

hahaha yeah i know we like to speak of making tunes talk to each other but "u like it when i'm deep inside / FEELS SO GOOD" is levels

r|t|c, Monday, 2 February 2015 21:57 (nine years ago) link

The Living Graham Bond should sue Jus Now.

These are so great - listened to them back to back yesterday, imagine I will probably do the same today.

I presume that I am way behind the times/demonstrating a total lack of taste if I say that Redlight - Gold Teeth is the track that gets stuck in my head all day?

q is now putting them up on sc for download (without the ads!) so it seems my work here is done!

http://www.wearesoundspace.com/premiere-jonarr-dotzz-lorenzo-rhythm-is-gonna-get-you/

also looks like he will be (re-? cant remember if this was ever on bigtunes, if i bought it i've lost it) releasing 'rhythm is gonna get you' on his label

r|t|c, Thursday, 5 February 2015 16:18 (nine years ago) link

'gold teeth' is def super bad taste but then is obv designed to be... kinda admire redlight for even bothering to double down on '9ts' and tbh i now have a grisly urge for him to make 12 more and release a resplendently terrible trash album of it all

r|t|c, Thursday, 5 February 2015 16:25 (nine years ago) link

one thing you do kinda find with these mixes is that they're so well woven it's almost weird and strange to then appraise the tracks in them individually (as such, obv they're all mostly intended as functional), especially so if you're finding things for the first time

r|t|c, Thursday, 5 February 2015 16:34 (nine years ago) link

Repeat listens have revealed to me that this Madison Avenue remix is a banger for the ages:

operation sovereign borders in full effect

Between "Don't Call Me Baby" and "Chains" it's like a tribute to clubbing in Geelong.

Tim F, Saturday, 7 February 2015 18:23 (nine years ago) link

u may even also find ur mind and senses purified by this week's :)

r|t|c, Saturday, 7 February 2015 19:56 (nine years ago) link

omg tim f are you from geelong too?

bae sremmurd (monotony), Wednesday, 11 February 2015 12:20 (nine years ago) link

No but i have been clubbing there.

I could have said "clubbing at Crown Casino" instead, but that seemed specific to the point of ridiculousness.

Tim F, Wednesday, 11 February 2015 12:42 (nine years ago) link

Patiently waiting for Q to upload last weekend's show.

Tim F, Wednesday, 11 February 2015 12:42 (nine years ago) link

that will appear after this week's show does, if it wasnt totes obvious

'ghosts' remix is vg but in truth that's a monster that doesn't wanna be lassoed

on the subject i'm slightly surprised/impressed he doesn't play his oldskool mix of amerie ever cos it's a classic little belter:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_Jd_FSIg4E

shorterz alone loves it and canes it however which is v cosmically pleasing imo

also amazed that some of the new (iirc?) productions here are yet to turn up. esp 'everything'!!

r|t|c, Wednesday, 11 February 2015 15:15 (nine years ago) link

haha i just got to the ILX shoutout in ep 2!! SO GOOD!!

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 11 February 2015 23:12 (nine years ago) link

Cause & Affect – Get To The Chopper
Bassboy ft Clarity – Rainbow

these two basslines mashed together is the be-all and end-all of everything ever

Benny B, Friday, 13 February 2015 11:48 (nine years ago) link

that kiss fresh mix is pure filth. when ten walls' elephant comes in is obscene.

||||||||, Friday, 13 February 2015 13:42 (nine years ago) link

6/2 show up on Q's soundcloud now. Predictably it is amazing. Enjoying the use of "Ellie Goulding - Love Me Like You Do (SCALES Remix)" this week...

toby, Wednesday, 18 February 2015 11:03 (nine years ago) link

there is a really unfortunate ed sheeran bit in the new one but otherwise so amazing

oh my god that oxide & neutrino/gala thing, gigantic and apparently new?!
love the weekly reminders that "don't call me baby" is one of the best songs ever

Flava D ft Miss Fire - Closer
DJ Haus & Matrixxman - Feel It
Luca Guerrieri - Harmony
Ill Phil & Lorenzo - Ripped Groove

this section!!! those elephantine chords paired with the twinkling synths. i lost track of which actual track this is. and then the segue into the bassliney one with the vocal stretched out like a car alarm

so excellent to hear stush's voice

"crocodile tears" into "everything i need", heart in mouth

"one night only" is as huge and glittery an anthem as "ghosts"

Is that the most recent Soundcloud post you're referring to?

where are the tracklists?

bae sremmurd (monotony), Thursday, 19 February 2015 12:14 (nine years ago) link

it's on that soundcloud page

lex pretend, Thursday, 19 February 2015 12:17 (nine years ago) link

ah i'm a dolt and didn't see the "show more" button

bae sremmurd (monotony), Thursday, 19 February 2015 12:22 (nine years ago) link

already talked about interzone x edm on like four other threads but i think this one will be most appropriate

spinnin (not proven but it's obviously them as the youtube takedowns are on their behalf) now have a new one coming out with a sample of what sounds to me like slick don the bassline mc!! lol what a world

https://soundcloud.com/mellowmusicgermany/illflavaz-natsuj-skanking-away-id-remix-preview

they are whipping up the shazam hype by giving it out to tong and mistajam and not telling who the producer is (which is exactly what they did for 'rumors'). tiesto and martin garrix are playing it

aw that will be nice if slick don sees some cash from this.

he was in the studio when that photo upthread was taken of q holding up the "ineffable" sign. he had missed the last train back to birmingham so decided to come in to q's show, drop some bars, and stay up til trains started running again :o

this is how we do it into milkshake out of milkshake

pandemic, Saturday, 28 February 2015 09:08 (nine years ago) link

and then into selecta 2015!

big juicy moves like that with the geelong handbag jamz with the new edm crossover all together go to show that friday night radio is the most perfect laboratory for q right now

like go back to the stuff i was wondering about a few months ago wrt how bridgeable the gap was between the crowdpleasing retro & fireworks ez-style live sets and the dense underground tunnelling mos sets and it's like you could not have orchestrated this situation any better to interrogate that

not to say that there are brand new elements being introduced or really a change in approach at all, it's just a subtle reformulation, ratios weighted appropriate to context.... would be pushing it (and is illogical anyway...) but you could almost make the case that this show is the essential bassline to essential garage before it? like that's the sensibility most at play setting it apart imo

Been sitting here playing FM, wondering whether to bother watching the Villa game, whilst also having a nagging thought at the back of my mind that I was forgetting to do something that I usually do on a Saturday afternoon...then saw this thread bumped

THX r|t|c !!!

pandemic, Saturday, 7 March 2015 12:49 (nine years ago) link

wait, what's the tune he plays after 'don't call me baby' that has "TAKE ME AWAAAY" in the chorus??

pandemic, Saturday, 7 March 2015 13:01 (nine years ago) link

that's the new one from the excellent dj skt, with whom you can't go wrong. v much an aesthetic soulmate of q's imo!

https://soundcloud.com/djskt

was always kinda surprised he never played this ruffer one in partic (to my knowledge anyway)

r|t|c, Saturday, 7 March 2015 13:21 (nine years ago) link

really nice to have the new wideboys tune ('move & groove') crop up too, they are definitely a huge evolutionary link in the friday nite geelong evolution

r|t|c, Saturday, 7 March 2015 13:28 (nine years ago) link

fashion week and it's SHUT DOWN!

Redlight – Gold Teeth
Nastee Boi – Ragz

^omfg this bit

lex pretend, Monday, 9 March 2015 18:00 (nine years ago) link

love the way all the refixes being credited to the new producer rather than the original artists means glorious surprises at every turn

lex pretend, Monday, 9 March 2015 18:15 (nine years ago) link

at this point i feel fairly confident he could do an entire two hours with the gold teeth acapella running over it

r|t|c, Monday, 9 March 2015 19:22 (nine years ago) link

Why won't this flipping Kiss Fresh player work??!! Don't fail me now and leave me to suffer Michael Owen.

ha otm

the whip of stampede colliding with gunshots just prior to this (in the 20th show) was totally amazing too
