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

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?

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)

Shift K3Y - Touch (Chris Lorenzo Remix)J. Phlip, Chris Lorenzo, High Priestess - Walls J. Phlip, Chris Lorenzo- LightsKeys 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

best #dancemusic producer of the decade so far, no contest
― Benny B, Thursday, 19 March 2015 10:31 (nine years ago) link
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

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

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:

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

holding a month at ~25 in the charts now
back in sept (and with 'darlin' before) i couldnt see what target & danny weed saw in rereleasing, i mean the tune remains forever a marvel but the context seemed long gone. i know better now - it was always a hidden jackin nation, never just yorks and mids - look at that towie/geordie shore video. over the last few months i've become addicted to this:
Real England
which blends a certain strain of current top 40 (analogous to kiss fresh daytime) with pure distilled wite flite banter, geezers all called dean raised on big chunky sugary sweet tooth pop garage breakbeat and 2step. this is a proper regulated fm dial station that plays richie dan 'call it fate', deetah 'relax (b&f mix)', blowfelt 'back up back up' at 2 in the afternoon
(it is also producing nothing whatsoever in terms of interesting new music but just anthropologically it's a rush)

well my first listen was last night when I bunged all the tracks into vdj, notched up the tempo and mixed through them, so that probably helped. i generally don't listen to these sort of things as albums anyway, just collections of tracks to dj with. the only one i actively disliked was 'we are', 'sleep talk' seemed like a highlight.
faint praise I know...

mad ting or wot. d double and steinski!!!!!
skippit is a mosh-bass-grime etc producer from southampton who i might have characterised as a delinquent younger sibling to royal-t - iirc he came to brief prominence late '14 with a whirring monster re-edit of flava d's 'in the dance' and for the most part has carried on in that marginal bootleg vein since
dj shadow interview samples and dusty breaks are the super extreme outlier obv but it's interesting to think of og jackin's morbidly amused chuck-it-in magpie restlessness resurfacing in whatever this current yoof scene is
