Techno/House Bobbins of the past

love tracks like this, kind of unremarkable but if i heard it out i'd HAVE to find out what it was

Sounds quite modern to me, but maybe I’m just listening to too much Dutch West Coast/l.i.e.s. stuff at the moment.

It is lovely though, let me know if you find out what it is.

Nice find, going straight on the wantlist.

wow

it's awesome. literally just revamped all my dj stuff this week, first time i've had both record decks and cd-js with me in one place in years, new needles and a new mixer and speakers, can't wait to start buying stuff like the above.

also really want this lp - http://www.discogs.com/African-Dream-The-African-Dream/release/128584 after hearing maxmillion dunbar play a tune off it, all the available tracks sound awesome:

Trying to think of old stuff I’ve discovered recently. Heard this Moodymann track last weekend which I don’t think I’d heard before, is this well known to anyone? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FQ6ZoTHVK4

the african dreams track is good will check out the others on that too

this is familiar but cant place it

I’ve been mainly digging for italo/disco/80s synth recently, but here’s ouple of late 90s London tech house tunes I put on my wantlist last month.

This is quite well known isn’t it?

just a state of mind

anyone remember this gem?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QozWLMxPLE

have some older vinyl from my parent's house and just stuck it on. amazing record. can remember selling tons of these at the shop i worked at, at the time it came out.

of course - great record

Got some great memories with that track. All those Dub Essentials EPs are, um, essential. Check out the tracks Menta and Take Me Up to Bed.

Love that a lot of really good djs peppering sets with stuff like this at the minute

ah well its just an old joeski record anyway

this was in my head all day and couldn't think what it was and then all of a sudden there it was

Speaking of Weatherall, I hadn’t realised until recently that Smokebelch II was a cover version.

Been a little obsessed with this other track on the twelve recently:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHaSywCslXo

fantastic 12", this is my fav mix on that tho

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-2Ynt7iOLk

that TLS track sure needs pitching down a bit for afterhours feeling

this feels one feels naggingly familiar in that Binh kind of sound

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xl_cUTQFybw

also this - no idea if old or new

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzEh4XP6ksI

Lovely synth/chopped vocal sample. Out of interest, how many of these IDs do you track down?

about 40% or so, less than half but not a lot less than half

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoeB82x5yrc

love groove chronicles!

this is what's up

http://www.discogs.com/Groove-Chronicles-Groove-Chronicles-Album/release/807519

likin' that

It's a great track, but also track down the dub mix of Holiday Da Vybe. The version on YouTube is actually the vocal mislabeled.

damn this is so familiar i'm sure i have this, audio werner or something?

(edit of which played at sunwaves by rhadoo)

Is that russian record for real? Too good to be true! Like when everyone discovered Black Devil and was convinced it had to be fake.

There are loads of releases, got one on the way. It also doesn't sound too dissimilar in terms of sound palette to stuff like Alexander Robotnick and other italo from 83-85. Although most of that stuff is more song-based, and this is more tracky in some ways because of the context as a rolling backing to excercise.

I can imagine those instructions are very off putting to enjoying the music if you know the language.

Yeah, the Russian thing doesn't sound so unusual for its era that you'd suspect it's a fake... Especially compared to that Indian disco album that was reissued a few years ago, the one that sounded like acid house (complete with 303s) but was released in 1982. People thought that was a fake too, but I think it was genuine...?
