Techno/House Bobbins of the past

for my money the real dope is archives 1 - it's got "gated", "booster" and "starway ritual"

veggi grooves - denver 1993

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yf_24BR1RTA

a ton of mixes of this but this is the one with the skulluggery, used to play this one at sea

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dz9DVElQ3tM

stuck in my head today

https://youtu.be/z02huaBd-SY

did luke slater build "angel street" around a snippet of this voorn + baxter track?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kO0U2R7x7Ao

xps that "Sexitivity" is great!

i clearly need to get more luke slater stuff.
i only have 'alright on top' (still not overly into it - the vocals don't work for me), and the second volume of his 'fear and loathing' mix which is brilliant.

Freek Funk was a great album

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

two years old, just repressed

not so impressed with the other tracks so i passed on it, but this one is great acid breaks revival stuff

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u57zcpoZYfU

that slater track is great, very carl craig

Jalal Ouissal's only ever release, from 2002. Not a pseudonym, looks like he just turned away from music after this:(

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQvGSzL4w54

I never knew this was a Photek record until half past ten this morning!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQE7jQPDrtc

you know they reissued that?

https://www.discogs.com/Photek-TRaenon/release/10330691

the a1 starts off one of my all-time favorite mix sets

https://www.discogs.com/Various-Checkone-Applied-Rhythmic-Technology/release/9793

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxtLS93bSt0&feature=youtu.be

the b1 also seems to have gotten a lot of attention over the past few years (talked up by efdemin among others)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1zdbEW-104

all this talk reminds me of the other pre-solaris 4/4 photek track

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBNoyTJ9JLU

is that first youtube busted? i'll try again

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxtLS93bSt0

Stone cold classic ^^ xp

Don't think I ever heard his last album, Ku:Palm. Is it any good?

discogs metadata not promising

Style:
Techno, Breaks, Deep House, Dubstep, Progressive House, Experimental

i have not heard it but his dj kicks from the same time was ... not good

imo he totally lost the magic after "modus operandi"

I saw it was reissued once I realized what it was. I've heard it different times in different contexts but none that I can place specifically. Not so keen on the other side! its ok but not in same league!

Scott Edward(s)

I haven't heard this track before but its very reminiscent of a couple of things I'd like to find. Its not as expensive as I thought it might be but it will have to wait a little

Mustafa - Circles.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YthuuGO1dng

Great track, Big sam was one of the first to cane this back in the reebok days

Demarkus Lewis from 2004

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta0eQgU9VKM

He was really on form around that period but this is the one I always return to, still cheap on discogs too!

i’ve always been torn abt demarkus - like kerri or derrick he puts out a ton of stuff, some of it amazing, some of it too commercial for my taste

this is the one i keep coming back to

https://youtu.be/crOAcMAXPsg

I figure with people like that when they put out a ton of stuff it doesn't really matter some of it isn't very good! I don't have to own or like all of their records.

Its like being a striker, if they have a bad game all is forgiven when they score a goal! I agree though he has a lot of bad records, but I don't mind as there are great ones in there too

This is reminding me of one of my favourite albums, I only like one track on it! in fact i think this is the only good track they ever did

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6nSXqzogB4

Pitched up a little though!

I picked up a bunch of unpromising looking records from a friend earlier this year and didn't bother going through them other than cursory listen till just now and gave them away, and it turns out this was on one of them. I should know by now not to skip

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

yeah that’s a good way to think abt it

The unpromising sounding Will Dobson, sounds like someone who plays for Lincoln City

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBefDZR60uM

Wow, whoever thought this fellow would come out of hiding!! Colin McGraw, whoever that is

I don't have the money because ive bought too many records:(

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_vN1YliJfU

Techno and balearic mates! Any ideas what Onur is playing here. The party is 2014 but the record is obviously much older (I think!)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvRuoDzZ3bg

I think this one should be guessable, certainly the producer!

but in the meantime here is a mark archer record

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5skO1nhJxw

Mr trever t on firm handed, the other version of this is very expensive but prefer this one

http://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=164&v=V3Omqm563gM

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3Omqm563gM

and in a different mood and back into affordable territory, Peter F Speiss from 2002

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NXu5tdFbWk

Theres a really great Speiss track but it not on here and I can't seem to find it

Might be time to do a new mix!

I always loved Icarus Wings the best on that first Envoy album, but then I heard this in Seaworld last tuesday, its been bugging me all week what it is - and of course its something I already had any never played any of the other tracks off it, how could I have missed this dream

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pswFhRAT5A

That is niiiiice.

Ive been looking for this wonder for long amount of weeks and months and here it is and its John Tejada

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StG6gSxL-x0

Real music like they used to make in the war, puts vibes in your brain, a spring in your step, and a hole in your wallet

this one is making the afternoon winter sun a little warmer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrfIF8SB5a8

Funny how those happy trax records have ended up being his most sought after stuff now!

"you must follow him to the end my friend you must follow him to the end my friend"

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

Sure I've put this here multiple times but its such a staple yet always fresh. proper goose bumps an that la

ah no i memember now it was a vid of praslesh playing it in barcelona before i think

Funny how those happy trax records have ended up being his most sought after stuff now!

yes, see also the soul city label! though i imagine part of it is due to the fact that it was pressed in smaller quantities and unlike UR stuff never repressed ...

i love this mix so much

https://www.discogs.com/DJ-Rolando-Sweat-Volume-One/release/131961

Not heard that mix, don't know all that many off it either I don't think, will investigate

I passed up on this a while ago, somehow missed out on realising this track is on it, its pretty expensive now, too late!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cof8CFfbTiY

Never heard this Kraftwerk track before, I like it a lot. Assumed anything they were doing this late in their career would be a bit thin but this is good!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p15PBeFyP-s

so i first heard this track on this comp

https://www.discogs.com/Various-Nuphonic-02/release/129539

when it first came out (all of 18 years ago!)

and i promptly forgot about it until a few days ago when it popped up in itunes shuffle.

man, what a track! moves through broken beat and larry heard styles before settling on a crispy drum loop from which you can trace a neat line to today's lo-fi producers of note

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Gkirn4k7E4

marginally better encoding here

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8wlb8ZpCjg

anyway worth your while to seek out a HQ copy

wow and apparently there's a chaser remix!
