Fabric 17 - Akufen

All the basslines on the "Deck The House"-ish tracks on the album sound like they were played on the same bass preset.

uh oh if his next record is anythign like the last live show I saw of his, then we are in trouble. granted, that was in a tate lecture room, and we were all sitting down, but it was limpid rubbish, just a lot of wishy washy ambient preset noises, and some dead cheesy water running samples and those silly jungle bird calls last heard on Enigma and every Bukem tune ever. IT was meant to be music for hsi friends unborn child, lets hope he keeps it on a private basis....

and dave yeah i second the anna kaufen idea. that are like the 'club' akufen. well the one 12" i have is decent.

and well, if when you are talking about the 'funk bassline', you mean 'deck the house', then that is the most pussy bassline ever. i remember everyone on ILM raving about it when it came out, but it is totally lame. like, it would be ok, but its so polite. Pump it up man, you released it on 12", you want it played in a club so just tweak the levels or something! i mean, honestly. maybe he shoudl have released it as anna kaufen ,then he would have had license to properly beef it up.

i heard he did it in traktor somewhere. in fact i think it was a bit of promo copy for the cd but now i can't find it.

This is Akufen for me. Maybe I'll get this mix though, and give him a chance.

that ep for me defines the whole genre and negates any arguements about akufen tracks not working in clubs. no bassline and yet the whole ep TOTALLY causes it on the dancefloor every time. i'm on my third copy.

Because yeah, it's the greatest micro track ever.

been listening to this alot recently: herbert > soul capsule mix of freaks > crackhaus is just fucking obscene

this is what the jesse rose body language should've sounded like

*removes 08 Senor Coconut - Smoke On The Water*

ah, perfect

Had completely forgotten about this mix. The tracklist certainly captures a moment in time.
