26:35 Beck - Cell Phone's Dead (Villalobos remix)

this is awesome!

Save The Whales (688), Friday, 9 February 2007 10:38 (nineteen years ago)

10:50 Shackleton - Blood On My Hands (Villalobos redit?)

i couldnt make my mind up whether this was awful or awesome! i hated this for 8 minutes and then i realised it was awesome too

where are the words from, all that stuff about talos, is it...."the cage", the startrek pilot?

Save The Whales (688), Friday, 9 February 2007 10:40 (nineteen years ago)

Is this the Fabric 10th birthday mix or a new one?

Matt DC (Matt DC), Friday, 9 February 2007 11:14 (nineteen years ago)

Save The Whales (688), Friday, 9 February 2007 11:22 (nineteen years ago)

wait, no, that can be right! something birthday anyway

Finally heard the Beck remix, one of the best things he's done for sure.

meanwhile, onmygosh just posted an alternate mix of "the sinner in me". nice.

Jena, Thursday, 1 March 2007 04:32 (nineteen years ago)

Beck rmx up on ohmygosh... excellent it is too.

braveclub, Thursday, 8 March 2007 12:39 (nineteen years ago)

amazon finally delivered my cd copy of fizzy zizzy last week :D

beck remix.......don't see what's good about it but will give it another go...just seems kinda boring and unpercussive...

Ronan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 12:45 (nineteen years ago)

I dig the beck remix, but the initial praise seems a touch OTT... the vocals are definitely a bit different, really nice & well edited, feels like he could have made it in his sleep at this point though!

fandango, Thursday, 8 March 2007 14:13 (nineteen years ago)

(I have very little time for beck usually...)

fandango, Thursday, 8 March 2007 14:16 (nineteen years ago)

I think he probably did make it in his sleep. When I first heard it out I thought it was some weird re-edit (of god knows what) he'd done on his flight over to the club... but it's great fun, although perhaps that's relative.

the vocal snippets and the backward masked (?) singing are cool though, especially through a system.

resolved, Thursday, 8 March 2007 15:01 (nineteen years ago)

I think most good Villalobos tracks these days are initially underwhelming in an "i don't see what the hype is about" kind of way, with an exception perhaps for hearing them really well-placed in a mix.

The Beck remix literally does not do much - it's got that one rolling syncopated beat, the eerie effects and the different vocal samples bouncing off each other and that's about it. In terms of his scope, it's pretty much the polar opposite of, say, the more maximalist Achso stuff.

But what I find compelling about it is that the more I hear it (solely in the context of the Fabric 7th Birthday mix) the more I feel like it could just go on for ever and I really wouldn't mind. For me it's more invitingly hypnotic than "Fizheur Zizheur".

Tim F, Thursday, 8 March 2007 22:00 (nineteen years ago)

this thread must die

Cameron Octigan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 22:35 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I was thinking if I could I would switch things up so that the beck remix would go on for 37 minutes and have fizheur be 14 minutes.

i like the beck remix all right, but don't really understand all the fuss. in the end, it's not that grabbing. pleasant to listen to, but not a ricardo track i plan on rocking all the time or something.

right now, i is listening to Luciano's Future Sense. which is much more exciting. that's sort of besides the point, tho.

set from Harry Klein last weekend very much worth the download

resolved, Tuesday, 20 March 2007 19:36 (nineteen years ago)

although I can't believe he hasn't retired the air raid siren yet... !

Impressive...

Goethe*s Elective Affinities, Wednesday, 21 March 2007 06:35 (nineteen years ago)

Could someone pls point in the direction of said set from Harry Klein? I remember there being some new site that replaced cocoonstyled that was linked to in the sandbox but damned if I can find it...

Grazie mille! Villalobos looks oddly like a renaissance portrayal of the Virgin in that photo, like a Fra Filippo Lippi or something.

Ricardo's got a mix tonight on the Mary Anne Hobbes show on Radio 1 at 2am. Well the show starts at 2am, you'll probably have to listen to grime and Planet Mu stuff for forty five minutes or so before it gets to his mix. If I actually bother to stay up for it I'll probably record it, if anyone wants it upped gies a shout. Although of course the "Listen again" function will be available for a week.

jim, Thursday, 19 April 2007 22:40 (nineteen years ago)

do it!

Manuel, Friday, 20 April 2007 05:26 (nineteen years ago)

Thanks for the tip jim.

stevo-r, Friday, 20 April 2007 05:27 (nineteen years ago)

i'll second the upping!

BleepBot, Friday, 20 April 2007 15:46 (nineteen years ago)

here's that mix

BleepBot, Tuesday, 24 April 2007 21:41 (nineteen years ago)

EFF THAT. who the fuck doesn't use dl managers in this day and age. pff.

the table is the table, Tuesday, 24 April 2007 21:46 (nineteen years ago)

i saw Ricardo Villalobos DJ this weekend. It was really fantastic.

That is all.

good dog, Tuesday, 24 April 2007 21:48 (nineteen years ago)

was that at the monza party in berlin, or in barcelona? (or elsewhere)
i saw him at monza, was shocked at how UK house it sounded.... very very good. full of these big gnarly basslines that i'd never heard in one of his sets before. quite fun.

pshrbrn, Tuesday, 24 April 2007 23:13 (nineteen years ago)

it was at The Loft in Barcelona. Great to see a DJ play a couple of hours and not be able to trainspot any of the tracks. I think they even (wow) let him play twenty minutes over time. Now that's a first for BCN.

good dog, Wednesday, 25 April 2007 09:25 (nineteen years ago)

re that Wild in the Country bash : Underworld have just been confirmed, along with Hot Chip in addition to the list on display ooop there ^^
cracking line up really ..

mark e, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 18:23 (nineteen years ago)

hmm. anyone know if cellphone's dead remix is going to be released on vinyl?

gnippiks, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 06:53 (nineteen years ago)

Anyone know anything about that "Romanian remix" of St Germain's "Rose Rouge" that's being played a bit lately? It's in the final fifteen minutes of the latest Raresh mix up on cocoonstyled, and Villalobos plays it in the 7 hour Harry Klein-set from a couple of months ago. He also played it when I saw him in Oslo on Saturday. I love the combination of the Fiz-like repetition of the main loop and those jazzy hi-hats.

Strangely, he says he hates doing remixes!

Michael F Gill, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 20:41 (nineteen years ago)
