Basic Channel Records ... Educate Me, Please.

dan, check Leonardo thread later.

1) not getting the soundstream hate. that track is fresh

2) i can actually listen to the francois k mix all the way through now w/o recoiling in horror or leaping up to change the track. it's not terrible, merely totally insipid and uninspired. and completely lacking in bass or dynamics. i'd rather listen to just about ANYBODY from nu-drum'n'bass do a version ... why not get a german, like pieter k??

3) really really really really feeling vladislav delay's version. SO DOPE.

and inversion! damn you vahid! it took me so long to hear this song because i followed your advice. i love that high-tuned kick, just banging out the time among all the reverbed chords. it sounds like it's in a completely different space than the rest of the track.

that's not dubby at all, don't buy that

i meant buy this and this instead ... that's the proper dub house stuff

oh and this too

Seasons Recordings is like the underground techno label that that separates the men from the boys; every corny indie fuck in the world has the BC catalogue in a silver EFA tin, but not too many people know about DJ Spun. Hyper minimal difficult electronics, not for tourists or the faint of heart.

I bought so much west-coast house in 1998 and 1999

This is my favorite cr 12":

Apparently the guy only made one record. A real shame, as his record is one of the best things that came out of a relatively mediocre label.

If you condense Fluxion's Vibrant Forms I&II into a single cd you get some of the best dubby minimalism of the 90's.

I went into a trance state while driving through a snow storm with a cdr comp of these two albums. It was 11am on a Saturday and I was completely sober. It was a 45 minute drive, but I felt like I was in the car for about 3 hours. When I parked my car at home it was like I came to; I wasn't quite sure how I got there. It was one of the strangest experiences of my life. Vahid will probably make fun of me endlessly, but I have to give Fluxion props. You don't come across records like that every day.

This was a great label for this kind of music, especially DC10-14:

But the funny thing is that this guy went on to do these records for Octal and they are the best thing he ever did. I got these as promos back in the day and packed them away back in Michigan. I brought them back to Texas this summer, fucking amazing records:

This Man-Like man needs to go to bed. Good night fellas.

It is more on the ambient tip, but it is absolutely breathtaking:

... in 1997. They've learned a few new tricks since then and I didn't feel the need to hear Maurizio M remake #4839B

(I am aware that the Vainqueur remix, which I love, is also stuck in 1997 so feel free to rebut my shaky logic along these lines)

i is listening to Scion.

i think that you and i are listening to different r & s records.

also, vahid is pretty much always 'omg noobs.' which is at times refreshing and at times pure arrogance. (and in this case, after an investigation, Tussle are none too good. in fact, i'd venture to say Tussle kinda sucks.)

bc-02 - phylyps "trak"
bc-03 - lyot "reshape"
bc-07 - "octagon" / "octaedre"

really really really really good

bc-04 - quadrant "1.1"
bc-08 - "radiance"
bc-qd - quadrant "infinition"
bc-cd - CD compilation

really really good but not sure what the point was

bc-01 - cyrus "enforcement"
bc-09 - phylyps "trak ii"
tresor 100 - scion arrange and process basic channel tracks

merely really good though sometimes boring

bc-05 - cyrus "inversion"
bc-06 - quadrant "dub"
