Techno/House Bobbins of the past

Groove Chronicles track with Aaliyah sample, didn't know this one before. This is actually the record that was playing in the Edward Hopper painting of some fellows in a bar

love "Stone Cold" - was always reading how it was a classic but I never really *got* it until I heard it in a nightclub and that bass in the second half floored me

its sneaky like that innit

hats off sailors, set sail for last orders

love "jealousy & lies." it featured on someone's mix i loved a few years back, and i wish i could remember it. maybe it's still in my itunes somewhere.

love it too, never heard that mix before though

chris korda, from 2003, such a friendly record! tailor made!

charming escapade by Boris Tihomirov from 1985, a cup of coffee and a swim!

Reissue for this Justin Berkovi 12 from 2000

https://soundcloud.com/dbh-music/predx002-justin-berkovi-the-storm-predicaments

Never knew about this 12! Other than that one track off. the Crouton EP that everyone likes I didn't know he'd done anything else good, but this is stellar gear

South African house - this gorgeous track is from 2015 (but I only recently discovered it). I know Afro House is a thing in the international dance scene, but I have no idea if this particular kind of stuff gets any traction outside of SA.

DJ Clizo • Moment of Silence

Orginal Nutter! - Oi! Nutter!

can't argue with that, like

Dj Assault - Livin the Good Life, from 2007

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

I'm not living the good life just yet as I'm stuck in a traffic jam inside the Asda, but those trolleys are bouncing like Wesleyans on Stapleton St

In the same afternoon, at separate shops, I consecutively bought two unrelated reissues of 90s Australian dance music with orange and black covers.

Weird, I discovered. Jandy's youtube channel the other.day, she's an interesting character!

Just discovered Ray Castoldi!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xC2TUxYkCo

According to discogs he is the music director and organist at Madison Square Garden, and has performed during New York Rangers and New York Knicks games since 1989. He also appears on something called Jock Jams, doing "The Chicken Dance"

this is some well dreamy Sunday music, all the tracks (92-94) were reissued in 2017

Nice ^ !

For some reason I never noticed this delight on the other side of the Freaky Chakra record

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

Not as obvious as the famous a side but still no idea how I missed this!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLuuT1mNbhc

love that, map.

pitched down, but that's me.

love it

oh I love Joy, pitched up though, but that's very much in character for me

Skudge - Convolution

I'm not especially drawn to their stuff in general but I'm feeling this b*nger at the moment.

Ha I was listening on YouTube and iTunes at the same time and thought that beat went all wonky at the end.

Stallos, from 2008, on Australian label Kindred Sounds, all new to me

Nice to see that Guidance are putting out three compilations of Callisto (aka Dana Kelly) material. He produced some subterranean deep house records in the 90's. Sadly passed away in 2013.

https://bordelloaparigi.com/shop/upcoming/callisto-guidance-is-internal-part-1-2x12/

That’s fantastic news! I’ve almost considered paying the absurd prices his Nether World ep goes for, and have often hoped for a reissue - if only as a proper tribute.

Love the Callisto records but don't miss out on DKMA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjt9etdGOb4

This is my fav Dana record but of course there are so many

Repair, on Sub Static, from 2002. Textbook vibes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mshYxNN3eMQ

Present your arguments for or against why this should be inducted into the deep house canon:

Jellybean feat Steven Dante - The Real Thing (Fun "House" Dub)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDnv6e7NLd0

The bassline is so solid, and the vocals ooze power as well. There seems to be a lack of 808 though.

'Jellybean' is one of those producers who disappoints me overall because I found his strongest production early on then later realized there wasn't much else like it. With 'Jellybean' I'm talking of course about his work on Madonna's 'Holiday' but C&C Music Factory would be another good example, their only real masterpiece that I've found is that one Grace Jones garage remix.

Full artist name is John 'Jellybean' Benitez.

IMO this is the C & C music factory masterpiece

https://youtu.be/HtmioubRtlc

(It’s their mix of a deeper love cos my link didn’t auto embed)

Right, that's not bad. A little flimsy for my deep house preferences but it's not bad. I prefer that vocal to the Aretha remake. Here's the Grace Jones garage remix (apologies if I've posted it here before, I'm kind of partial to it):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQmhjklXgu4

Just the intro alone is worthy of a full DJ mix built around it.
