miho hatori was (is?) in cibo matto

yeah, they broke up. who is tim koh?

I asked Jacques what "Bad Skinned" was but he wouldn't dish. it's from Eastern Europe, it's a really shitty record, and it has nil web presence.
Food of the Gods is alreet, but it's no Laughing Light of Plenty.

who is tim koh?

plays bass for white magic and guitar for ariel pink

fyi SF heads - Bumrocks LP in stock now!

just deleted an email saying something about discount Whatever We Want releases being sold at the next No Ordinary Monkey party.

Bumrocks LP release party at Dazzle Ships...sometime in december maybe.

Bought that Bumrocks LP from Phonica the other day. Have yet to listen....

so does anyone know if some nurave-y/french filter house type of band has sampled the part from like 4 seconds to 20 seconds? i have the 12" and it sounds just so familiar. put it on last night before i went out to get ready to see daniel wang and funnily enough he played it :D

unfortunately that was one of the few tracks he played i liked :( it was mostly really, really gay love boat-y stringy disco

what's the official name for that "byoo boo booo" sound at the beginning of that, and why did every disco song use it?

i call them lasers and my guess is because they sound awesome

thought they were synth drum toms?

or laser

pretty sure the technical name is space lasers

this was around the time star wars came out and you know how those disco kids loved their star wars

btw my favorite song right now is the underdog edit (which is really just the ron hardy edit) of meco's cantina theme

LOL cibo matto side project

WEWW is the grand royal of 2008

i shouldn't say bad things about grand royal, it's thanks to them i first heard "liquid liquid"

also i used to have a rad x-large plaid shirt

the magazine was really good too...

That Love De Luxe track is by the same guy who did "Champ" and the Grange Hill and Countdown theme tunes of course.

Dunno who sampled the first 20 seconds, but the first 3 or so were sampled on the Prins Thomas remix of "Satmara" by Sternklang. Dunno if it was on the original or not since I've never heard it.
Too bad about that Daniel Wang night. I had wanted to go, but I guess I didn't miss much. I can't get into that kind of string heavy lush schmaltzy disco.
Did anyone go to the Greg Wilson thing on Halloween?

btw my favorite song right now is the underdog edit (which is really just the ron hardy edit) of meco's cantina theme

i dunno if it was this, but wang played some version of the cantina theme also.

Did anyone go to the Greg Wilson thing on Halloween?

i went to this also. had a pretty great time. can't remember anything he played (because i was so drunk) besides his mashup of imagination and missy elliot (bleh). but he did have a reel to reel. no idea how he mixed that.

he was mixing that reel to reel like it was a record, i was wasted but definitely remember that much.

i dug his edit of the clash and a few others, even though he wasn't exactly a master of seamless mixing. i was a little disappointed at the turnout, but i guess that's sf for you.

i'm also bummed i missed wang, but if it wasn't anything special then maybe it's good i didn't drag uninitiated friends out there

he mostly uses the reel-to-reel for sample drops and effects noises.

anybody have any good candidates for beardo mix of the year?

i mentioned stuff on Cool in the Pool from Västkustska Ryggdunkarsällskapet and Soft Rocks as faves of mine elsewhere

waitasec, waitasec ... someone saw danny wang dj in san francisco and it was "really really gay"? holy shit! go figure!

i'm all for corny italo, diva singers, the drag show before wang djed and a bit of schmaltz, but this was way over the top love boat action. maybe you have to take away my beardo membership card, but i'm not really a fan of the whole tom moulton sound

I get where yer comin from but I don't think "Tom Moulton sound" is a good catch-all for "gloopy disco w/ strings." I'm not a huge fan of say "Love Is the Message," but he's got a bunch bad-ass songs. (BT Express, "Moonboots," Loleatta Hooloway .... )

anyway this is gettin less beardo-disco and more disco-disco ,,,,

* Holloway

LOLeatta HoLOLoway

lol wang

danny wang is awful. let's just come to grips with the fact that the dude has spent the last 10 years bitching in interviews instead of making good music, and that his taste in disco is, if anything, even more awful than metro area's.

daniel wang will never have a beard

LOL his wang is smallll

agree w moon about wang. his mixes are pretty much everything that i DON'T like about disco, however he did put out some good records in the 90's.

i saw him spin at some gay club down here, it was really good! not too schmaltzy. he should definitely stop with the interviews, tho.

yeah i missed danny wang, but he was on BIS a little while ago and all he played was schmaltzy shit. granted it wasnt a mix and he spent most the time flirting with Tim, he played some cool stuff and some uber boring shit. i know his reference was to a live show, but him and greg wilson, who i saw on halloween, are not beardo by any means IMO. the only song i really like of wang's is "like a dream I cant stop dreaming" and that's more housey than disco

also i love "love is the message" especially at the beginning of Harvey's bbc essential mix from 1999

not beardo, but SF disco heads will be interested in the new DC Recordings compilation, Death Before Distemper 3 - A Fistful of Ferrets, mixed by the Idjut Boys, is now in stock at Amoeba SF, and it's a North American exclusive. the only place you can get this is through Phonica and Juno in the UK (i believe Piccadilly is importing copies from Japan), Colette in Paris and direct from Japan. I believe it's around $20. If you're out of the area, call the store, we'll do mail order!

just picked up bumrocks, will swing by amoeba and ask about the DC recordings, thanks for the heads up

just got that bumrocks too, it's quite good (on first listen). also, that new Loud-E (Y.O.Y.) makes me want to lose my minddd

and i agree, wilson is not beardo either

what is that Y.O.Y. ???? i know it but i can't place it and it is bugging me beyond belief.

i dunno but it reminds me a bit of that "crawfish" edit or eddie gale in that it has some seriously freaky/groovy female vocals really high in the mix, but in this amazing electro-boogie context and it just kills

the b-side is amazing, too. there's a loud-e full length on the way, or so say the folks at dj history http://www.djhistory.com/forum/showthread.php?t=39732&page=2

all this "crawfish" talk leads me to gush about this edit that Thom from RnT played on Friday night at the No Ordinary Monkey party of Slim Harpo's "Shake Your Hips." ridiculously simple but effective, he mostly doubled up everything so that the effortless boogie goodness lasted twice as long as the original.

new phantom slasher edits cd...

http://images.juno.co.uk/full/CS328838-01B-BIG.jpg

it came out in late september, but i missed the boat until now. it's pretty damn great, it includes a lot of the recent phantom slasher eps (albeit with certain tracks named differently) and new material too. too bad it's a cd-only thing

idjut boys droid is like whoa, but its techno, not beardo.

That CD is NOT techno!
