To get the thread rolling...

This is really broken beat bobbins, and I haven't even properly heard it because a certain online shop has very much mislead me about when my order would be ready, but it's already February and I want to start participating in these threads again.

was it a preorder

Jeff Mills mistakenly releases another producer's track as his own

The first EP on Mills' new Str Mrkd sub-label contains a track by Julien H. Mulder, who had sent demos to the Detroit artist.

The first release on Jeff Mills' new Str Mrkd sub-label features a track by Julien H. Mulder mistakenly labelled as one of Mills' own.

The EP was meant to feature four new tracks from Mills, but upon release it was discovered that one of the tracks was actually by Julien H. Mulder, who had previously sent demos to the Detroit artist.

"In a rare mistake, it was selected for this release as Mills believed it was a track that he produced from his past recordings," Mills' label Axis Records said in a Facebook statement.

"Mills often receives demo tracks from artists seeking licenses on Axis Records," continued the statement. "As he reviews tracks, he sometimes makes a CD containing samples of tracks of himself and others to test while out on tour. On an unmarked CD and because of the similarity in production style, Mills mistook this track as something he had made a while ago and proceeded to add this to the release."

Axis has since reached an agreement with Mulder, who will be properly credited on all future represses of the EP.

Mulder is a Swedish techno producer with a handful of releases under his belt, including records for Midnight Shift and Mensch.

Not sure how I'd feel if an artist I was into released one of my demos as their own work

I have so many questions about this Mills thing. How can a person not remember making a track and then not ask where the master files have gone?

Maybe it's different if you're making tracks out of hardware jams? Easier to forget something that was made in a day than pieced over weeks, and for tracks to sound similar based on the gear?

yeah I'm thinking that Mills would do some hardware jams, maybe do a quick edit and throw it on a cd along with other stuff for cdj sets or road listening

so you end up with a bunch of cds that have completely unlabeled tracks and maybe a note jotted down with the track number and what the track sounds like

the master file is the cd track, might be tweaked a little before pressing

Considering how many tracks JM has already released that are basically variations on a specific style, I wouldn't surprised if he's made literally countless anonymous tracks (I don't know much about how pressing works but, would you ever press a track straight from a CDR wav or whatever?). That said, I dunno if I'd be more annoyed or flattered in this case.

was it a preorder

Yes. Not surprised at delays, but I ordered it when it was "expected Dec 31" 😑 I think they're doing the delayed-plane thing where they'll keep postponing it for just as long as people will wait.

Thinking about getting this while I wait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTD-cHPa-Pc

i once waited 13 months for a preorder ...

New Shanti Celeste & Hodge EP is all brilliant

The new Edemin album is really good.

not usually too taken with Cosmjn records but I'm stuck in a national express bus station pub and this came on and is going down pretty well with a pint of overpriced lager thats the only thing on tap

Pekkuliar & Driahn on Kommuna, though I might need to make an edit as the one flew over the cuckoos nest sample in the middle is distracting and jarring! Very good otherwise!

thanks for that peace bird; really enjoyed it!

Rymd01 is also excellent off that Genius of Time EP

I hadn't realized Heath Brunner was making records again! A couple last year, and this grand wave at overpassing cirrus

Not heard of Sweely before but seems to have a few records out the last couple of years. I'm not sure about the merits of playing 3 in the middle at home but needs must

maybe more of a Balearic bobbin but w/e

got excited about new burger / ink but looks like it was a previously unreleased track put on a new kompakt comp series curated by burger, still v beautiful

Midge Thompson on butter side up, this is Titonton Duvante's mix of it - unmistakable Titonton where he adds his bit!

is vakula canceled?

The decisions that were made in creating that artwork seem so ill-advised and confusing that I can't understand what the possible goal was

yeah it's incredibly gross

i have four vakula records that i like *a lot* ("metaphors", "attack the soundsystem", "slavic mythology", "pictures of you") but now i want to get rid of them

When these things are made and produced and available I always wonder how nobody at any point was able to say "hmm actually this is a terrible idea"

it's fueled by resentment.

at least that's fewer records i have to worry about not having time to listen to.

what an absolute arse of a man.

agree

wow, how edgy

this is the jam of the year so far, i think

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asILsvYEq7U

Who would have thought that jumping up and down 10 bpm would be so effective?

love that

Two Italian records played here at the Nou Camp by the magic trio, Mane, Salah and Firmino in b2b, should both be out later in summer.

that Sharif Laffrey remix of "Scream" was last year but that doesn't mean that it isn't *SLAMMING*. listened to that all through the christmas holidays, helped me out a bit lol

yea! Sharif Laffrey's been having a good run of productions recently imo

really been digging this on these late spring/early summer days. Perlon can still get it right!!

One of the subtler tracks from the Lizz album. The best ones not up yet but this is a grower. Album is pretty sprawling so some tracks get lost

i'm such a sucker for this sort of thing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAjHKH2DuDA

yes! keep the good stuff coming. i've been exploring the rest of the CTD'A and it does not disappoint. i'm really digging the vampire boogie lately so it's hitting that sweet spot too. what a fine label.

hope you saved some serotonin, fiedel is back and he brought duncan macdonald with him

That Aroy Dee and Ma Spaventi tune is an actual banger

Donato Dozzy & Anna Caragnano - Parola (Rework)

sorry if this was already linked here. amazing track

I have a feeling that would grow on me if I gave it a few more tries but I'm not sure I need more minimal in my life. Although it could well be the crappy EQs on my system that I'm getting that from.

Agreed that Aroy Dee & Ma Spaventi is quite compelling. Didn't we agree to cancel "banger" tho?

The Robbenspierre track shows definite potential.

Oh yeah as far as the new Midland I'm more partial to Tortuga from the new EP but none of them are missteps. I was thinking about posting his recent outstanding NTS mix but haven't paid attention to charts of top rated DJs lately and don't know if he's too obvious a choice.

Another Robbenspierre, from a 12" coming out next month on new Italian label Threads

This is ace

Why would 'banger' be cancelled?

^^ fp’d u for that one. mods?

https://shanticeleste.bandcamp.com/album/peach008lp-tangerine

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

Gosub, on Libertine. There's a few Shad Scott things on the way, this i

if ur like 'banger should be cancelled' and 'the midland mix is too obvious a choice' please do everyone else a service and don't go to parties thx

and the aroy d / ma spaventi track is a very pretty sad person who doesn't like to dance track that i like for my running playlist not for the club unless i want to feel like a loser. sorry guys just sprinkling a little salt out here with tongue in cheek got to keep the sidewalk from freezing.

at least be civilized and use an asterisk

b*nger

bunger?

binger = a bong hit

I am indeed a loser if that was ever in question, cheesy canopy. And yeah it's true I don't really go to parties any more. The scene here sucks and often when I do go I get the "what's dad doing here?" look.

As for b*nger, I was genuinely under the impression that there was a consensus that it was so trite as to be practically meaningless. Or we could just call every song we like "epic" and it would denote exactly the same value. Whatever, call it what you like as long as someone keeps putting up a little good music here aside from all the dad rock that now dominates ILM.

unfortunately reasons of taste are not a valid basis for cancellation, check the bylaws!

it’s true, we used to sing in college “bing bing every time i come around your city bing bing sack of weed worth about a sixty bing bing”

that was 20 yrs ago would be funny if they still said that in college

pretty sure it's bam bam these days
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcaPu9JPenU

Wasn't that 30 years ago? Or is there some new slang I'm not hip to.

I'd guess 'bing bing' is the sound a beeper makes.

Let’s just stick with ‘banger’, shall we?

the most obvious track from the Lizz, album, Words

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJQPDp64kjw

careful mates, it is genial

late to the mixed feelings party but i've been hooked on "shooreee" recently

Mark Thibideau on Vade Mecum. Had been playing some Repair tracks and saw this had come out this year. Didn't hit at first, but just came up on a Greggs bacon butty in the library and all is clear now

loving that Lizz LP saer, thanks for the reco

:)

Pretty uneven record but the good tracks are outstanding!

Resident Advisor Singles list with like ten separate playlists:
https://www.residentadvisor.net/features/3542

Hadn't heard their song of the year prior but i like it!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FundLlhlUgk

I really like this format, actually.

I was feeling bummed about all the usual EOY list bullshit, but I'm on one of these playlists, which made me feel better, but also bad that I let list-making bullshit get to me like that.

it's a good approach! actually accessing the music and organizing it by overarching themes and showing off the range of a genre is like ten times more interesting than WHAT IS THE MOST CANONICAL SOUP OF ALL THE THOUSANDS OF SOUP ANYONE ATE THIS YEAR: AT NUMBER ONE.... CHOWDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!!!!1!!!!!!

hell yea, god bless RA

yeah I enjoyed this a lot more than a top 50 list. much more interesting.

& well done Jordan, mate!

that Schacke track “Кислотный пипл” is great!

At the risk of being cancelled, it's a BANGER

Three's no other word for it. Also big up yourself Jordan

This surely has been posted (right?), but it was nice to identify it after hearing it in a mix. Love the five note groupings.

Can anyone ID this banger from a Martyn set earlier in the year? https://voca.ro/5pdHm40sTh8

no but I'm interested.
