commendation for outstanding service to human race: resident advisor

Also, I find it hilarious to see you having guest mixes filled with exactly the kind of shit you used to diss when dick-riding mnml. It's rough out there when you just jump on whatever's currently popular.

Sounds like Ronan's issue is more with the question than the answer. If Aguayo was asked his opinion of minimal and that's what it is, I don't see the problem. I don't really expect him to have some bright new insight.

Well, to be honest I wouldn't have even read the quote apart from it was singled out as a pearl of wisdom.

As for Tom, that's nice for you. I'm glad you're keeping up to date with my one blog post in the last 3 months.

Not really a pearl of wisdom, I just find the 'i long for a good sleep' line to be hilarious. But maybe that's just me.

yeah btw I wasn't specifically attacking you on it, I just find that kind of comment in various forms seems to run off the tongue pretty easily...

Don't mistake RSS feeds for my checking up on you.

find someone else to hate dude. good luck with your blog and label.

yeah, ronan, i figured that you weren't attacking me, i just thought further clarification of why i posted it was necessary....

I don't hate you, you're like a clown to me. And thanks, but I don't need luck or anything else from you.

good then ignore me

Quit posting on my Internet and I will.

That Matias aguayo mix bores the living fuck out of me. People actually dance to this shit? I want more "Minimal" and less zzzzzzz.

OKAY SHERIFF

ridiculous...

anyway, snrub, people do dance to this. http://www.myspace.com/bumbumbox

not necessarily in traditional venues or anything like that.

rip pipecock, you will not be missed

sb? I didn't click it fwiw

no i banned him outright.

seriously weird shit...

more just unnecessary nastiness.

dude is disturbed imo

i mean, i would never ban pipecock for arguing a point in his usual way, but just being a dickhead without any content? ban-worthy, most definitely.

I honestly would prefer to just bury the hatchet, but it's incredibly hard not to bite when somebody seems to make a life's mission out of slating you. It's so spurious too, everyone here likes music, has opinions etc, myself and trees have had massive arguments but I don't systematically consider him evil or something. Don't know why someone would even bother but I'm glad my enjoyment of stuff isn't irrevocably linked to hatred of something else.

Anyway whatever, it's Friday night!

rip pipecock

died on a bank holiday

Don't hate the minimal, hate the pathological inability of producer's and critics to properly mourn it. The infatuation with minimal's denial and destruction not all that unlike Mr. cock's pathological infatuation with denial and destruction of anything and all things Ronan.

Anywyas, I want to hear Matias Aguayo sing more often, dude is definitely among the better voices in contemporary dance music.

RIP ronan's blog

Surely even non-rote critiques of minimal stopped being relevant a good 12 months ago.

RIP critiques of minimal

what would happen if ronan and pipecock met accidentally on a dancefloor?

just fuck off will you

die this bank holiday

Surely even non-rote critiques of minimal stopped being relevant a good 12 months ago.

'xactly

The new PVH cast is killing it for me right now: well constructed and a winning tracklisting.

http://www.residentadvisor.net/podcast-episode.aspx?id=168

I just went from this to the 320 kbps Bleep 43 podcast and my oh my, what a difference it makes. Listening to those shitey 128 encoded RA mixes is a real strain on the ears after a while. Why have they reverted back to these lesser quality mp3's? Apologies for bringing this up again but it pisses me off (speaking as a slightly ungrateful consumer of free podcasts that are served to me on a plate).

even with shitty bitrate you can't front on the still going mix.

^ agreed. was so excited to see they were doing this week's mix

this pretty much = the shit

looking forward to hearing that - theyre playing plastic people with mock & toof on fri also

so ... arto mwambe?

didn't realise it was two guys - 'they' played down here the other week and it was just one of them

set was awesome tho, so will give this a listen

This is so so so much fun. It's like they want to be the Aeroplane of the revivalist house set.

just looked this thread up to rave about the mix. it's incredible. and Aeroplane is a good comparison for how shamelessly pleasurable it is!

Lol searching for ronan's recommendation of the arto mwambe remix of manuel tur I came across these words of wisdom:

"Arto Mwambe - Btwo - this is simply the most massive, irresistible, brilliant track.

― Tim F"

one would think that you listen to next to no deep house music if you believe this.

― pipecock

heh...hardly surprising, you prob can't get classic-sounding house music much further away from pipecockian po-face than this stuff

Yeah i know, it's like an endorsement.

Laurent Garnier: "Always in my bag"
Prins Thomas: "The b-side is the one for me"
Dixon: "A heartbreaking work of staggering genius"
Pipecock: "One would think that you listen to next to no deep house music if you like this"

damn this podcast IS great. same with the manuel tur remix

new podcast is 160kbps too, they did a couple (at least) that were 128 and I just quit listening.

yeah, thank god for that. what were they thinking with the 128 kbps ones.
