Jackin' House partisans, convince a skeptic

Ruff Driverz – Deeper Love (Ruff Mix)

right away my interest is piqued

yeah these glimpses into the secret lineage of the bigtunesmp3 nuum (if u like) (and by extension the bassline scene) are really fascinating

iirc other jackin scene characters (perhaps not the big hitters) have done similar soundcloud mixes albeit never tracklisted... some are like rave or piano organ house classics etc

on the 0231 shows shorterz has a couple times made intriguing reference to a birmingham scene or vibe where speed garage ruled presumably a lot longer or laid ruffer roots than it did elsewhere

tbh besides like idk madchester and bristol (and the odd fleeting derisory lol at donk or scouse house or w/e) how many of these localised histories beyond london ever see the light of recorded day - not to mention the extent to which london takes historical credit for groundswells elsewhere

http://www.gregwilson.co.uk/2013/07/cutting-shapes-how-house-music-really-hit-the-uk/

read this bit the other week actually, highly recommended

i mean i guess "secret lineage" is exactly wrong tho - more like just the process of things being so popular they become forgotten and vice versa

OK, this Roots mix looks essential, downloading now!

reckon these mixes will be worth investigating too, loads of stuff from the early noughties

like shorterz sez in the above brum-relevant article this tune is a proper throwback to the era. nice to see rinse getting behind it

also bits like this too

for completions sake

13. The ‘701’ Track

= Trina & Tamara 'What'd You Come Here For?' (Marvel & Eli Vocal Mix) (2003)

Kinda loving Shorterz soft new sound e.g. the above "Colours" remix, "Why". Feel these are my special pretties.

tbh if we're talking kinda 90s bigroom tong retro then this here smasher is way more brainbug than undie bobbins innit

Fuck yeah:

http://rinse.fm/releases/rinse047/

that is a very nicely written press release. i feel i should point that out. thumbs up to that person.

like it sez, the ep totally is a great microcosm of the shows - they haven't tended to announce these tracks so it was a pleasant surprise to discover all these familiar bits were in fact c&a, especially as they'd been on a run of grimy bass devastators in remixing other people. ('dimensions' in partic is exactly like some great unassuming lil groover shorterz might have found on local talk or w/e) (thread of shorterz jams would be something i'd be happy to talk to myself in actually)

lorenzo's aptitude for hazy summer vibes lately is perhaps a bit underappreciated - the c&a mix of zinc 'show me', 'i wanna be'...

Mistakes is all-time, obv. Great to have this official version.

Not sure I've heard the other ones before tho. Bird Flu sounds like it could belong on a Perlon release or something.

Somewhat perversely, I'd totally get this on vinyl if Rinse pressed it up. I'm increasingly reverting to some old school ways :)

anyone know for sure if lorenzo co-produced menajatrois? can't find it now but I'm fairly sure DJ Q mentioned him in a tweet or something when it was released on his label. Its gotta be him right?

Had we simply not noticed that "Rhymes" has a crossover-ready video clip and everything?

#13 in the national charts six weeks ago dear boy

i probably never mentioned it from chagrin for having eyerolled at tracer lumping them in with the duke dumont thread so many times :P

presuming hw&cl had nothing to do with its making it's a p delightful intuitive happenstance that that video should use all that retro tv footage and stuff, summoning as it does all the old creepy twilight zone sampladelic grizzle numbers (plus a nice extra dash of ballardian kink)

speaking of which, BOOOOO BITERS BOOOOO

Shift K3Y - Touch (Chris Lorenzo Remix)
J. Phlip, Chris Lorenzo, High Priestess - Walls
J. Phlip, Chris Lorenzo- Lights
Keys N Krates - Understand Why (Chris Lorenzo Remix)
My Nu Leng - You've Been Gone (Chris Lorenzo Remix)

i still like to put on a playlist of all these occasionally (plus the cause & affect remixes of pantero666, ray foxx and grades too), they really are quite amazing... if the earlier stuff was stygian then this crop last year was like being cast into tartarus

idk i hope loz tries his hand at soundtracks or something someday, the claustrophic ~sound design~ is so outrageously good, always making me draw for the greek mythology analogies obv, low scrapes of chains along catacomb corridors, distant guttural roars and howling shrieks and hot furious breath of terrible pitiless deities #dancemusic

otm

best #dancemusic producer of the decade so far, no contest

the other thing that emphasizes best producer in a studio engineer sense (rather than best ex nihilo artist as such) is the fact that though he is so dominant he is also genuinely collaborative too, or at least works at his best bouncing off other people... like after the vice article you started seeing all these crass dickhead aspersions flying around about hannah wants' role in their stuff together, which is super dumb cos a hannah wants & lorenzo track is plainly distinct from any pete graham & lorenzo, from any donkie punch & lorenzo, from any c&a, etc. (i mean the bdot ones are literally probably him leaving loz 4am voicemails like "mate, mate... tina arena" but even still that's what had to happen to for those tracks to ever exist). and the same applies to his remixes too the way they feed off something in the original that isn't always component

this is a point that benny's comps have already underlined a thousand times obv

dont forget we've got the skrillex collab to look forward to this year!

(i mean the bdot ones are literally probably him leaving loz 4am voicemails like "mate, mate... tina arena" but even still that's what had to happen to for those tracks to ever exist)

Can totally imagine receiving this voicemail at 4am.

I want to make a whole Geelong mixtape built around "Chains" and "Don't Call Me Baby".

What is it about Shift K3y's bouncy, ultra sweet house pop that makes Lorenzo think of Josef Fritzl's basement?

possibly he sees shifty's cruel face, that makes all his videos a lie

or perhaps he knows even the lightest romance will always carry an edge

Last in the series, 90 min special!

wtf, tom zanetti - darlin' is bbc R1 track of the day! (a good two years after og release) Is this a potential number 1? i could just about believe it if it wasn't gonna be swallowed up in the xmas period.

WAIT! they've only gone and edited out all the sex sounds in the new video! pure savagery

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlohKSXS_9E

ha yeah this has been floating around for so long in such a low-key popular way that i thought it slightly odd but nothing notable to hear it more often recently

released on target and danny weed's label!

yum yum btw

Tom Shorterz ‏@Shorterz Dec 2
SO my @RinseFM Xmas show is looking like this 2 hours of SPEED GARAGE w/ @Lorenzosbeats & @jeremysylvester = FIREEEE !!!!

nice one, the last couple of speed garage specials they did were HUGE. and j sylvester's speed garage tracks under his G.O.D. alias are some of the finest records ever made imo, got my bass bins quivering in anticipation already

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAv3LrsJ0gI

that is the best speed garage tune ever made and js gets extra props for making one of the finest 2step tunes ever too (strickly dubz 'realise' obv)

i just walked past chris lorenzo

he's a tall man

I hope "darlin" does well so Q can revive all his "deep down inside"'/ "inside of me!" blends.

looks like cause & affect is just kane now judging from the soundcloud. hope loz didnt BOTTLE it

enjoyed this this year. classic grizzlejackin drollery: pony + clubland = do it like they do on the discovery channel

set me off on a reminisce... never realised this formative set's been lying around on youtube all this time since like a week after transmission

tlist attempt here! SUMMER JAMS 2012

lol damn we FLAMED that thread though B)

don't know why it's labelled as a 2016 reboot since afaict it's identical to the version that first came out a few years ago but whatever, "Babycop" is classic whack-on-a-few-random-acapellas-lying-on-the-desktop jackin, been also enjoying this surprise 2016 addition to that particular canon:

?? teddy riley ft tammy lucas - is it good to you

couldn't find any official confirmation but according to dodgy russian sites this one's Cause & Affect - Makin Love

ooh yeah that is alright. been meaning to have a think about 3000 bass, turning into a unexpectedly decent post-everything locus thing (see paleface now has some good bits on there)

"classic whack-on-a-few-random-acapellas-lying-on-the-desktop jackin" is true indeed but as we all know classic jackin also means anything-but-lazy casual savant genius production masterclass, which this is. even itself being called 'babycop' tbh! 1+1 to reference a third, ladycop, son of

i'm sure we could easily fill out the ids for all of that set now. was uncharted territory at the time!
