commendation for outstanding service to human race: resident advisor

i have that on vinyl -- i enjoy playing 'fire island'

vinyl isnt mixed obv

i saw villalobos play the iron butterfly track. he didn't exactly work it in though.

i sense iron butterfly edits

i have done one. i've just never managed to fit it into a set. yet.

i bet there is some breaks potential in "inna gadda da vida"...

and it could be turned into a total freak out as well. (as if it isn't already, but hey)

that drum break always reminds me of the 'drum solo!!' bit in weird al yankovics 'polka yr eyes out'. would be nice if someone could make an edit without it.

weird .. i had associated howells with run of the mill house gubbins (a la miami), but the RA podcast is making me re-evaluate his status (bear in mind i have never seen the man play out, nor followed his career closely). the segue from rockit into duck rock is just fantastic, so can well believe that choice mix being of worth.
ta for the pointer, will be keeping an eye out for that.

Anyone heard the recent Orb one? If so, does anyone think it is anything other than boring?

Yeah. Agreed. I thought it started UK - with what sounded like Markus Guentner but just seemed to go on a bit. Don't remember any of funny/quirky samples that used to really add to The Orb. A good ambient mix is a tough thing to do but you would've thought those that were custodians of the Land of Oz chill out room back in the day could've handled it.

Fine line between boring and interesting in ambient stuff, agreed.

got 20 minutes into the orb podcast then gave up.
just boring.

I gave up about 2/3 through..

the Orb's 2CD mix set Art of Chill is pretty spectacular. i'd recommend that over the RA mix.

somehow, the breitbarth mix has gotten me into dance music again.

surgeon?

Brinkmann?

On a bit of a roll at the moment, RA.

brinkmann's was v. enjoyable. as was disco bloodbath's.

brikmann's was really great and made me wish it was 2002 again

does anyone have a copy of the danny howells podcast? i missed that boat for some reason

i'll put it up

can still get it here i think http://www.megaupload.com/?d=EQBBCPKM

or here, i guess

thx dudez.

is there some type of archive for these?

i tht the disco bloodbath one was esp ace

anyone have the mark e one?

yep, will upload

here you go

is there some type of archive for these?

used to be a few, ie. most of them, over on archive.org, but recently they've all been wiped out, so i guess the powers that be stepped in.
shame as i intended to catch up on a few, but have mised out now.

RA Charts: Classic or Dud? I think a lot of the tracks there are not too interesting and have short life time.

I view them as a last resort. In theory a great way for DJ's to get new names out there, in reality a lot of lip service, self promotion, and fetishization of contemporariness. My advice is just don't even bother to try and digest all these things, it's about conquest most of the time anyways.

On that note, I think it would be a raucous fun to make DJ's select mixes from 6-7 years ago ala Brinkmann (When he played here it was one of the best nights out in my entire life), just to see how that would play out.

FACT Magazine playing RA at their own game with a tasty looking mix from Ben Klock: here

Uh oh, I thought I had these set to auto-download but I might not have. I have probably 110 of them archived, if anyone's looking for a particular one, let me know and I'll check.

Would really love to hear the Brinkmann one as well, if it's nae bother

joakim just did a FACT mix too. (xxp)

ITunes somehow managed to eat all my old Podcasts. I was bummed about the losing Dixon one, but at least his Body Language cd was pretty similar. The Twitch, Aeroplane and Motorcitysoul ones I will be trying to hunt down again.

I have probably 110 of them archived, if anyone's looking for a particular one, let me know and I'll check

i've been wanting to get ahold of the quiet village one actually- did you save that one per chance?

quiet village

I can upload the Cassy or M. Fulton RA's if anyone fancies - both good.

thanx again moonship.

oooh maurice fulton would be awesome- planning on catching him at the paradise lounge on friday.

if any of you want anything leonardo-ed let me know, i feel like i'm taking a whole lot and maybe not giving as much in return

if you like RA mixes, check this: http://sound.modelfruit.com/

fulton would be good!

2 Maurice's for ya, both very nifty.

Mix Show: http://www.sendspace.com/file/00xm44

The latter was a Japan only release I picked up last year. Plus I can't get enough of that Randy Crawford tune in the RA mix (followed by the spacey mid-tempo house tune after it). I need to be signed up to his podcast.

hell yes this is wonderful

like what i've heard so far of the quiet village mix, tho i thought they'd be mixing a little more

quiet village one is really really good....it's my cooking mix

Celestine Okwu - Okwukwe Na Nchekwube - Soundway

LOVE this 'nigeria special' track from the qv mix, think i also used it in a mix of some type last year

what about the prins thomas and aeroplane mixes? are they good?

Yes
