yo awesome!
thanks vahid

again, make sure you burn this to a disc and play it on a real stereo ... their use of phasing + delay is just out of this world as usual

some funkiness going on with the track titles.

the track labeled "IdjutPart3" is not contiguous with "IdjutPart2", it's contiguous with "IdjutPart1".

so it goes like this IdjutPart1 -> IdjutPart3

IdjutPart2 is not contiguous with either 1 or 3, so i'm not sure if it's a different night or what ...

accordingly, i performed the following surgical re-section to fit them onto 4 CDs...

Disc 1
IdjutPart1 edited at 69:26 (just at the end of "boogie oogie oogie")

Disc 2
remainder of IdjutPart1 (20:56)
IdjutPart3 edited at 47:32 (added a 5-second fade)

Disc 3
remainder of IdjutPart3, edited the fadeout at the 82:03 mark (34:51 total)
IdjutPart2, beginning at 00:09 (only the tribal drums, skipping the horns) and cut at 27:06 (just before the cymbals come in)

Disc 4
remainder of IdjutPart2 (62:33)

sad, right?

more like "generous". i'll be the one who buys several chunky 4CD jewel cases and creates artwork for it and then hands it out to friends (if that's cool)

have they/will they come to sf?

i just moved back here and missed harvet

HARVEY

haha it turned out that my dissection of the tracks was totally WRONG.

the problem is simpler than i guessed! what's really going on is that for some reason 54 seconds from part 2 somehow snuck onto the beginning of part 3.

so i recut it like this

disc 1 - first 69:27 of idjutspart1.mp3

disc 2 - last 20:56 of part1, first 00:54 from idjutspart3.mp3, first 41:02 from idjutspart2.mp3

disc 3 - last 48:39 from idjutspart2.mp3, 00:55-22:38 from idjutspart3.mp3

disc 4 - remaining 62:05 from idjutspart3.mp3

What is that crazy violin tune at the end of part 1, is it a loop they're layering on top or does anyone know of it? I'm talkng about the hysteric bit at the start, not the smooth strings that come in later -unless it really is all from the same track.

china crisis - african and white (39 minutes into part 2)

SO FRESH

oh man i just got a copy of 'beatin' on dave', it is the greatest. so heavy!!

i'd just like to give props to "smokin balls" and "laisn". the kalabrese rmx of laisn is totally fucking sick, as well.

this thread was cute. proto beardo

'Jaz Fook' - Idjut Boys & Laj (from the Noname ep). I LOVED that tune when it came out (in 1994?)!

Phil Collins remix posted on 20jazzfunkgreats is great! A bit of echo turns that piano into an epic rhodes.

i played that out on friday! so good

how was that?

i mentioned it on the techno bobbins thread already but there's a new idjuts 12" proper (not re-edits or remixing someone else) called 'droid'. it's tracky, like 'dj tool' tracky - drums-n-echo and not much else, really minimal.

i heard a suggestion that "droid" was a new sub-label (of noid) for tech-ier stuff. like hairy claw vs bear funk, maybe?

that'd be good! i am... getting a bit burned-out on disco edits.

i am ... also ... a bit ... burned-out ... on ... edits

this looks alright!

so does this actually, hot damn.

anyone got 'droid 2' yet? samples sound like a couple of dubby acid blowouts.

that looks SO good.

looking for "droid 2", "droid 1" was fucking heavy.

i wish i understood how the idjut boys mixed records, they are so good at it and yet it seems like they don't even bother to beatmatch really, they just do some weird-ass mixing board magic and everything just flows together. it is bizarre. i wonder if they use kaoss pads?

like, what is that thing on their discogs.com photo and why does it have a billion wires plugged into it? are they mixing with a 4-track or something?

i believe thats KRANG the alien brain

he's totally going "wicky-wicky" here!

they won't be reissuing their old stuff any time soon, it would seem

"night dubbin" is decent, maybe not quite as crazy as i'd hoped

it's like this: the tracks on the unmixed disc are *fantastic* but for some reason on the mixed disc the energy level seems lower than on the unmixed discs. not sure why that is ... a similar thing seemed to happen on "fistful of ferrets". somehow the idjuts managed to make DC sound tamer and milder than the earlier "death before distemper" volumes. and on "press play" also. are they mellowing with age?

Nobody heard it yet?

Should be on my doorstep today... honestly though I don't know that on any of these 3-disc BBE things that I've ever preferred the mix disc to the unmixed ones, they always seem staged like a relatively perfunctory "bonus" rather than the focus of the package. I suspect that the "mixed by Idjut boys" thing might have been more of an afterthought marketing ploy than the original concept for the release (could be wrong)

a highly subjective "best of" mix just for the hell of it ... pardon the trainwreck or two and the excessive use of reverb and delay towards the end. my excuse is that it's only fitting for the subject matter.

phantom slasher - endup
idjut boys - gentle approach
phantom slasher - poxymoron
idjut boys & quakerman - dum dum de dum
phantom slasher - lasagna for 10
phantom slasher - i got my love
major swellings - assquake
thick as thieves - tiny bubbles
major swellings - spit and dip
phantom slasher - oochie coochie
idjut boys & quakerman - corrective surgery
idjut boys - sweet gerry dynamite

moonship's idjut boys best of

dan & conrad never apologize for reverb & delay

tru dat

good lookin out moonship journey to baja

feedbacks appreciated

the last mix is just embarrassing ... i got distracted and suddenly realized the record had run out ... so i threw on the next one but forgot that i still had the reverb turned all the way up and the pitch turned down from "oochie coochie"

i should go back with audacity or something and throw in a sound effect or something to cover up the silence

also got completely carried away with the delay on "sweet gerry dynamite", hope nobody gets a headache

what is original for this: phantom slasher - i got my love

i know it, but since they cut most of vocals i'm lost

have people already trainspotted most of these? somewhere on ILM? should we if not?

so using my fantastic detective skills (been watching the wire a lot lately) and my impressive knowledge of music, i've come up w/this
