Jazz in the late 70s / early 80s (jazz goes pop, jazz goes disco)

George Benson's El Barrio would fit nicely into one of these sets I think.

is the The The track from Soul Mining? You know Thomas Leer worked on some of Soul Mining. Thomas Leer is THE cosmic/New Wave crossover god.

Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 28 July 2006 22:30 (nineteen years ago)

Spurred on by Mike (who also provided it to me) I gotta agree, that Starlight rekkid is excellent.

Raw Patrick (Raw Patrick), Friday, 28 July 2006 22:33 (nineteen years ago)

Wait, so Rub 'n' Tug vol. 2/Spoonful of Leather/whatever is an edits album, not a mix?

Telephonething (Telephonething), Friday, 28 July 2006 22:50 (nineteen years ago)

it's both

cutty (mcutt), Friday, 28 July 2006 23:26 (nineteen years ago)

not quite sure its a mix cause there is a clear deliniation between tracks

hector (hector), Friday, 28 July 2006 23:34 (nineteen years ago)

(not really on topic of beardo disco here) but I was looking through the clearance rack at Ross today and all of a sudden, 'Good Times' comes over the store speakers. Ah... and I found an awesome shirt, too. Thanks Chic!

Currently listening to this, I guess this belongs on this thread... regardless, it's Great!

willem -- (willem), Saturday, 29 July 2006 13:54 (nineteen years ago)

I would like to hear some of that six cups of rebel.

hector (hector), Saturday, 29 July 2006 16:56 (nineteen years ago)

you can catch another track of the ep here...

willem -- (willem), Saturday, 29 July 2006 17:14 (nineteen years ago)

cool blog, i got it bookmarked now

hector (hector), Saturday, 29 July 2006 17:32 (nineteen years ago)

also the main sample for the latest Kris Menace/Lifelike filter-disco jam

not sure if you're talking about the "I Feel Music in your Heart" remix, but that's a great track

Dominique (dleone), Saturday, 29 July 2006 20:10 (nineteen years ago)

I am.

Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Saturday, 29 July 2006 20:28 (nineteen years ago)

The Escort 12" is the summer jam of the year for me.

I haven't heard (of) this. Details please?

And returning to the Whatever We Want questions ...

How is the new Map of Africa? Who is Godsy? Why do they press so few copies?

Jamie T Smith (Jamie T Smith), Saturday, 29 July 2006 20:59 (nineteen years ago)

I haven't heard (of) this. Details please?

It's called "Starlight" (Escort 001) and it's AWESOME. Such a convincing '70s disco sound that I can't believe it came out this year.

Mr. Snrub (Mr. Snrub), Saturday, 29 July 2006 21:15 (nineteen years ago)

Thanks.

Escort isn't the easiest thing to google!

Jamie T Smith (Jamie T Smith), Saturday, 29 July 2006 21:21 (nineteen years ago)

Godsy = Gareth Goddard = Cherrystones

Telephonething (Telephonething), Saturday, 29 July 2006 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

i think a fair question would be does Whatever We Want intentionally print small runs and decline repressings in order to capitalize on the DJ/digger fallacy that rare/$$$/OOP = great record? can't hurt on getting the press to pick up on your scent.

i'm not attacking them here, just wondering if it's a strategy. a pretty smart one if it is. magazine writeups and dj gigs can be a lot more valuable than the margin on a few boxes of records.

mark grebt (sanskrit), Saturday, 29 July 2006 22:16 (nineteen years ago)

I say yes and who the hell can blame them! Also, it's not like other musicians don't do the same. Noise groups? It's a fucking forest of this sort of 'marketing.'

trees (treesessplode), Sunday, 30 July 2006 03:54 (nineteen years ago)

re starlight
ahh! finally something to spend that last remaining free itunes song on

and, what new map of africa?

a name means a lot just by itself (lfam), Sunday, 30 July 2006 04:19 (nineteen years ago)

'the sound of the fens'.

HPSTRKRFT (haitch), Sunday, 30 July 2006 05:16 (nineteen years ago)

whatever we want's website says they've got an mp3 store coming at some point.

HPSTRKRFT (haitch), Sunday, 30 July 2006 07:04 (nineteen years ago)

jesus i've seen both of their other singles called 'the sound of the fens' at some point or another

a name means a lot just by itself (lfam), Sunday, 30 July 2006 13:07 (nineteen years ago)

and that is why i never clicked through to that

a name means a lot just by itself (lfam), Sunday, 30 July 2006 13:08 (nineteen years ago)

The Rub-n-Tug mix for Fabric comes out next month. No tracklist yet, the only posted info is the cover, but I Are Exciteds.

Telephonething (Telephonething), Sunday, 30 July 2006 18:41 (nineteen years ago)

mmm yesss

gaseous (gaseous), Sunday, 30 July 2006 22:49 (nineteen years ago)

It's kind of a pain in the arse, though. You decide to stop stealing people's music on mp3 and actually like buy some records, but only if they're sexy and exciting. Then all the records you feel like buying are so hard to get hold of you end up just downloading them on mp3 again.

Yeah, I thought the one with Dirty Lovin and Off The Coast was called the sound of the fens too. I wonder what it refers to as well. I thought 'fen' was only a East Anglian word/thing.

Rub & tug were at Fabric last weekend, but I couldn't make it. Did anyone go?

Is anyone else playing this sort of stuff in London at the minute?

Jamie T Smith (Jamie T Smith), Monday, 31 July 2006 12:13 (nineteen years ago)

Just got the Rub-n-Tug Better with a Spoonful of Leather mix in the mail and it is an absolute delight. You could view it as just LOL SCREWED DISCO WOT LARFS, but it just works far better than it should.

Telephonething (Telephonething), Thursday, 3 August 2006 04:24 (nineteen years ago)

You could view it as just LOL SCREWED DISCO WOT LARFS, but it just works far better than it should.

it'd be a lot LOLer if there weren't DJs doing this shit for 25 years in italy

jaxon (jaxon), Thursday, 3 August 2006 05:22 (nineteen years ago)

Bitter much?

Better than releasing all ninety of your mixes on CASSETTE.

Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Thursday, 3 August 2006 05:26 (nineteen years ago)

who did that?!

HPSTRKRFT (haitch), Thursday, 3 August 2006 05:32 (nineteen years ago)

Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Thursday, 3 August 2006 05:40 (nineteen years ago)

We could namedrop all day or we could DANCE

Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Thursday, 3 August 2006 07:04 (nineteen years ago)

Anyone got any track IDs for the Rub n Tug mix other than Soft Cell - Heat, Gino Soccio - Visitors and the King Crimson one that I can't remember the title of? (And I can't tell you track numbers for those as I'm at work, sorry.)

Raw Patrick (Raw Patrick), Thursday, 3 August 2006 07:34 (nineteen years ago)

nobody really dances to that Cosmic crap, you can't even get people to dance to Metro Area in NYC...TOO SLOW.

fucking losers.

What would be great is the chance to hear Beppe Loda in an intimate setting, like a small, cozy bar.

Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Thursday, 3 August 2006 12:51 (nineteen years ago)

is your man Jeremy actually writing a book on cosmic? or did i just hear that wrong and he's doing it via his site and his mixes?

heavyweight grebt (sanskrit), Thursday, 3 August 2006 12:56 (nineteen years ago)

no way, not me. never writing a book. i am however working on an interview of loda, exerpts of which are up on the tropical site. hope to have the full thing in print eventually.

dirtybird + dubsided + defected = house music for the youngsters!

plus why don't more people rep for ame. what i always hoped broken beat would sound like.

nebbesh (nebbesh), Wednesday, 9 August 2006 12:08 (nineteen years ago)

What's that the tracklist for?

matt2 (matt2), Wednesday, 9 August 2006 12:54 (nineteen years ago)

rub n tug fabric mix.

HPSTRKRFT (haitch), Wednesday, 9 August 2006 13:02 (nineteen years ago)

"We're into having a party. Music and having a drink and a good time. The first Rub N Tug night was a loft jam, a crazy night with forty cases of champagne on the fire escape, fights broke out while we scratched records. At one point T played the keyboard with his bare ass. You know that kind of party. That's how it started; may it continue as it began."

otm.

HPSTRKRFT (haitch), Wednesday, 9 August 2006 13:10 (nineteen years ago)
