Anyway, I like the "I Can Take It" 12", and most of the other Sound Signature stuff but oh is it hard and/or expensive to find. Thanks for the offer of trade Jeff, and does anyone have some of the 12 inches dubbed to cd and want to trade?

I think I have most of the mix cd's. You could usually get them from FE when they were released but you had to act fast. I'd be willing to burn copies for anyone interested. Just drop me a line.

Andy, what is this Rotating Assembly album of which you speak?
"I wish all the Theo Parrish releases weren't so nebulous and expensive"
Ha, for once I have a leg up on all y'all grime/gutter garage white label collectors, shit I can't get ahold of in my local shops! The Record Time stores in the Detroit suburbs always have Theo's stuff, and for very afforable prices. Maybe it's no so bad here after all!

Thanks for the tip, Andy. I'm surprised I didn't notice this on my last trip to Record Time. I don't stop in there very often (every couple months usually), but I was just there maybe 3 weeks ago and didn't see it.
p.s. Mullygrubber is my hero for hooking me up with Burzum and a bunch of Brazilian stuff in exchange for my Theo and Moodymann and Danielle Dax stuff.

Anyone hear him on NTS today? I only caught the last hour. I'd love to have a track list of the whole set but I doubt that's forthcoming.
I'm sure he played some of his Ugly Edits, I also heard some Quasimoto and Erykah Badu. That's all I've got.

i caught the first few hours and then the end, amazing the variety of stuff he can play but it always still sounds like him. i was following the chat a bit in the first part and there were lots of tracks that weren't identified, some edits and blends and whatever, maybe the mixes.db guys will work their magic when the recording gets released

Look at the edit phenomenon! Now, granted, I’ve had my hand in it, and I regret that I had my hand in it—Do you really?Oh, absolutely. It was a mistake. It was a big mistake. I didn’t think ahead. I didn’t think that 1) you’re not crediting the artist; 2) that’s not your writing; and 3) even though I had the best intentions, that it’s offensive to the people who did the originals.

https://k7records.bandcamp.com/album/dj-kicks-theo-parrishGrowing up in Chicago, later Detroit-based music producer, Theo Parrish is internationally well known for his own inimitable downtempo house music style. The approach Parrish took to compiling DJ-Kicks was very ambitious, inviting his Detroit peers to produce a collection of brand new material, and in turn creating the first ever all exclusive entry to the esteemed series. "Detroit creates. But rarely imitates. Why? We hear and see many from other places do that with what we originate. No need to follow. Get it straight. In the Great Lakes there are always more under the surface than those that appear to penetrate the top layer of attention and recognition. What about them that defy tradition? Those that side step the inaccurate definitions often given from outside positions? This is that evidence. Enjoy."
― willem, Friday, 30 September 2022 12:34 (one year ago) link
so, not a dj kicks but a sound signature comp on k7? that's cool, not like he doesn't have a million cool mixes out already! although i'm often confounded by a lot of the non-theo productions on his label, so would have liked to hear how he mixes them - i'm assuming the 2CD tracklist reflects an unmixed comp, and he hasn't done many CDR mixes lately. what i heard of the "thanks to plastic" CDR seemed to be in the "eclectic aesthetic" / "when i snapped at blue basement" vein. i should probably check out the music gallery one with specter

it’s good— except for the first track and the other DeSean Jones track. first one is poorly constructed, and the religious bombast and wretched gospel singing of the second are huge turnoffs. and i LIKE gospel house, i just don’t think the Jones guy’s songs are any good, and his voice isn’t great, either.
