I have some tunes by Maurice Fulton that are really cool. I also like his Ladyvipp and Eddie & The Eggs releases. I have not heard any of the MU stuff yet. Can anyone recommend some of his best tunes & remixes? Thanks!!

Frank Booth (Frank Booth), Saturday, 17 January 2004 21:54 (twenty years ago) link

Mu tracks that are great: Let's Get Sick, Chair Girl, My Name Is Tommi, Tell You Something.

Remixes: I really like House of Jealous Lovers remix.

Also from last year:

Do it Proper (Maurice Fulton Remix) - Chicken Lips (Re-Echoed, Re-Extended and Re-Hashed album, Kingsize)
Don't You See - Bibi with Maurice Fulton (Modal)

well... could always use more of this wonderful music... but what's up with only being able to find one interview with him (in french no less)? are my googling skills that shoddy?

firstworldman (firstworldman), Thursday, 19 May 2005 17:27 (eighteen years ago) link

I think he's just doesn't like giving interviews.

ps the new Syclops release is great - favouring "the E ticket" at the moment.

Jedmond (Jedmond), Thursday, 19 May 2005 17:54 (eighteen years ago) link

ah... i love that syclops 12... and by sentiment that seems pervasive here, i really like the heartbeat remix more than most and kind of imagine a club full of pillows where people dance wearing that linen business from p.m. dawn videos.

according to a friend he's got three tracks on the upcoming future of jazz comp, but i haven't investigated further.

i didn't want to start a thread for this. How can you base your album around Kate Bush's music including her vocal samples but not only including them...and not mention her? Is that normal/legal?

Susan Douglas (Susan Douglas), Thursday, 29 December 2005 06:02 (eighteen years ago) link

which album is that?

firstworldman (firstworldman), Thursday, 29 December 2005 06:25 (eighteen years ago) link

'Boof'. I figure there must be something I'm missing. 20 seconds in..oh this would go nice with some Kate Bush! 40 seconds in...oh wow that sounds like a Kate Bush song!...60 seconds..is he sampling her voice really low? then switch to another song and hear her "oh ohhhhhhhh oh" from 'This Woman's Work'.

Susan Douglas (Susan Douglas), Thursday, 29 December 2005 06:36 (eighteen years ago) link

With the B'more Basement Boys, he did produce Crystal Waters' "Gypsy Woman" and some fine deep house -most of which I do not have- 15 years ago. My absolute fave MF choon is this kraftwerkian electro-tech nummer with rising key stabs called "Space" that came out on Transfusion. So good I must YSI it at once :
http://s53.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1XWG6H86WSHU22ITK2BR69OW0M

Also search : "Down In The Dungeon" and especially "Moo That Rocked The Electric Chair", both are spectacular and can do serious dancefloor damage if you know what you're doing. In a lighter vein there's also "You Changed My Life" with killer fl00t s0l0 & disco cuts, speaking of which, Susan's prolly right about the heavy-handed sampling on some tracks - then again Moodymann has built a career out of Chic samples and nobody told the duder to stop.

Basically I recommend anything released for Transfusion and the "Up" 12'' on Discfunction (he lives in Britain since a while). The downtempo side of his production used to be dark and rich, like sitting in a life-infested jungle at sundown. I guess the Syclops releases indicate it's getting ruffer in that dept. It's fine retro-sounding future-shaped music anyway.

Remix search : I-Cube "Vacuum Jackers", Walter Jones "All God's Children" (Carl Craig-style genius), Minimal Compact "Happy Babouge"... Fulton = live(-sounding) drum breaks, warped funk bass, more cowbell. Sometimes formulaic but it ends up being enjoyable most of the time, hello again Mr. Kenny Dixon Jr.

blunt (blunt), Monday, 2 January 2006 15:31 (eighteen years ago) link

let's turn this into a YSI thread then, as moo rocks but i know little of his non-wifey joints

Beta (abeta), Monday, 2 January 2006 15:50 (eighteen years ago) link

Is that a challenge, Beta? I think the Eddie and The Eggs LP is really good. My Gigolo 12" is great too. His Walter Jones remix is my favorite of his remixes. It sounds....sideways, in a good way. It was my favorite remix for so long, i think it is from 2001,but it is hard to play out cause it is so long and weird, it would probably kill a dance floor.
Here is the new aforementioned Syclops 12" he produced on Tirk + Walter Jones remix.

SYCLOPS "The Fly":

I think I downloaded some live dj set of his once, and surprisingly it was horrible. but i've always felt like that was probably some fluke bad occurrence.

Absolutely love Maurice's mix of Ost & Kjex's "Have You Seen the Moon in Dallas?" - actually from 2004 but it's on the great Permanent Vacation mix. It achieves the unlikely feat of almost overshadowing his remix of I:Cube's "Vacuum Jackers". So so pretty.

additional tah for the YSI.

+ Speaking about "Permanant Vacation" mix (which is great, but then I love anything in which the first adjective involved in describing it is "pretty" - see love for any Ewan Pearson set as well), Vahid, you have to check out Permanant Vaction's Kathy Diamond 12" "All Woman" (produced by Fulton) which is the first single of her coming album "Miss Diamond To You" (which hopefully includes "Sunshine" and other Fulton productions).

Jedmond (Jedmond), Thursday, 16 November 2006 16:00 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah I definitely get a Ewan Pearson vibe off of Permanent Vacation (the first half of his Resident Advisor set is like a proggier version of the same). The Joakim remix also is absolutely stunning.

Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Friday, 17 November 2006 01:57 (seventeen years ago) link

the alice smith remix is not as craaaaazy as we've come to expect but is still great.

only halfway thru but the resident advisor mix is inspired and interesting and kinda scary.

Reasonably late response, but there are some quotes from Fulton regarding Ladyvipb here http://www.allbusiness.com/retail-trade/miscellaneous-retail-retail-stores-not/4645368-1.html On the other hand I swear I read him saying somewhere that Ladyvipb stood for Lady V.I.P. Bitch aka ex-girlfriend.

Nice to here that there'll be some new Syclops soon.
