the stuff that has REALLY aged badly is things like Audio Bullys 'Real Life' and 'We Don't Care' - more than electroclash stuff.

i was into electroclash soooo much more than daft punk :D

ahh miss kittin, felix &c...

'rippin kittin' still AMAZING. anna-marie and i still dj it out.

steve those things sounded dated and crap at the time.

lex pretend, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:04 (seventeen years ago) link

you know, as a retro thing

lex pretend, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:04 (seventeen years ago) link

re kittin

lex pretend, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:04 (seventeen years ago) link

yea im not sure we can count emerge as dance music. or as any good

i like rippin kittin from that time, but i guess that was electroclash/indies time in the sun.

I loved a bunch of ABs and FC Kahuna stuff in 01/02. The former's shit ratio went from 50/50 to 100/0 after that (but too bad Dinsdale didn't produce the Streets second and third albums) while FC Kahuna just seemed to disappear altogether.

But by 'aged badly' I can only go by 'stuff I loved at the time but don't now' rather than 'tracks that were fashionable then but don't really get made now' which I assume is the case with 'Carnival' (people still like it but no desire for more stuff like that)?

blueski, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:11 (seventeen years ago) link

dunno i was thinking it sounds kind of thin production wise. i kinda thought that about a lot of that stuff at the time, i think thats why i was kinda not really so much into dance music around that time

600, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:22 (seventeen years ago) link

no thinner than Braxe & Falke stuff.

blueski, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:23 (seventeen years ago) link

I guess I might as well drop this on here - is anyone interested in my side project of mashing up transformers the movie with discovery? if so, how many of you are going to be at EMP?

mental note: steal his idea

Comic book guy: Question: is your name Ridley Scott or James Cameron?
Homer: No, it's Homer.
Comic book guy: Then I would thank you to stop peering at my
screenplay, Homer. And if I see a movie where
computers threaten our personal liberties, I will know
you have stolen my idea.
Homer: But I'm just waiting for my kid.
[thinking] Mental note -- steal his idea.

sorry i just realized you were referencing that lol

and what, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:33 (seventeen years ago) link

idea is done - should be going up on youtube in the very near future... digital love + robots fishing = amazing!

BleepBot, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:33 (seventeen years ago) link

Digital Love = general shots of Arcee
Night Vision = Optimus death scene?

Harder Better Faster Stronger for the Galvatron, Scourge and Cyclonus creation scene would be awesome

blueski, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:35 (seventeen years ago) link

if so, how many of you are going to be at EMP?


Wait, who are you?

Ned Raggett, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:35 (seventeen years ago) link

HE IS HALLE BERRY

blueski, Friday, 13 April 2007 15:36 (seventeen years ago) link

trust me, iz pretty beautiful! "Nightvision" plays under the Optimus death scene, so on and so forth...I'll let you guys know when I post it online

> Wait, who are you?

Is this the RIAA speaking? ;-)

I'm actually not going to be at EMP, but would like to in the future. I can just drop a couple DVDs off with my Stylus buddies...

oh je.

does anyone still express this opinion in public?

caek, Monday, 4 March 2013 01:31 (eleven years ago) link

"music sounds better with you" is the single most romantic phrase i can imagine! daft punk wish they could evoke a hundredth of that emotion, indeed a hundredth of that sonic pleasure

Are you agreeing with the sentiment or smiling at the category error that underlies it?

the latter

still have trouble with everything after "Crescendolls" outside of "Too Long" which is fucking class

yeah alright jordan, lol

the Shearer of simulated snowsex etc. (Dwight Yorke), Monday, 4 March 2013 07:57 (eleven years ago) link

lots of this record still stands up well. something like "face 2 face" is secretly one of the best songs ever made.

Tioc Norris (LocalGarda), Monday, 4 March 2013 11:24 (eleven years ago) link

"face to face" even, not sure why i assumed it was a 2.

Tioc Norris (LocalGarda), Monday, 4 March 2013 11:24 (eleven years ago) link

still one of my favourite records IMO

dog latin, Monday, 4 March 2013 11:53 (eleven years ago) link

don't know why I wrote IMO just there, of course my favourite records are my opinion ;-)

Here's Barry Manilow to clarify.

MarkoP, Monday, 4 March 2013 15:00 (eleven years ago) link

"face to face" is still the best thing on this - Crescentdolls, Short Circuit, etc are the secret keepers once you get past the frontloaded singles
