rite so im playing the night slugs comp

mosca - like this, it's colourful and ~classy~ and vaguely minatory

lil silva - like the ardkore stylings, it's the sort of thing hacks would describe as 'dayglo' had the klaxons never existed

girl unit (bok bok rmx) - oh no, dubstep

kingdom - the part where the vocal gradually materializes through the distortion abt two minutes in is rather impressive, otherwise less so

l-vis 1990 - synthy ardkore peaks nice, rest a bit thin for five minutes

jam city - clear standout, gazing with cold dead eyes upon the night slug lessers like a hungry kestrel on a telegraph pole

I really dig (Baby I Don't Know) What You Want by Jacques something.

Any minute now

lil silva (2) - this sounds like something diplo would haved liked, had he lived to hear it

Don't actually like that Jam City track much, though i do enjoy other stuff of his that i've heard

yeah the jacques greene (ha very easy surname to remember for me, if not everybody else) track is the best

egyptrixx - really like this, crazy pitchbend and doppler effect trailloffs VERY oni ayhunish

bok bok and cubic zirconia - pretty good

optimum - not sure if there are any relevant opinions to be had about this track

so pleased to be with you at these moments nakh. this album finishes strong imo.

aww <3

i guess the 'problem', such as it is, is that this could be a single artist album....lot of preset swapping, very murky

jacques green - chipmunks! nice, not the best thing here tho

egyptrixx!

velour - this is p cool, lol dog latin

girl unit (2) - this is great, as you know

Can you choose a vintage football shirt to sum up the experience pls.

best jacques greene

^^yeah that shit is yoga f major

lol what

So did anyone catch Girl Unit on Rinse FM earlier today?

idk oppet, tho in a wider sense....

night slugs are probably at the level of bolton atm, impressive skills on a moderate budget

girl unit is CY lee, the fleetflooted showboat off to bigger things

egyptrixx is the johann elmander, pure unadulterated bigness of sound and spirit

lol what

my inner thoughts have been corrupted by big hoos

matt & rtc football jersey convo killed me

Another Girl is totally totally ace. Will rep for Jacques Greene forever, though, as he spins with a bunch of my friends in MTL. His sets are basically ILM catnip. Nights Slugs type shit with chopped and screwed mixes of Ciara, Yamaha + assorted Terius, 'Motivation', Cassie's Skydiver, etc. etc. etc.

His remixes of Cassie's 'Must Be Love' and Katy B's 'Broken Record' are also keepers.

Egyptrixx's singles are pretty ace and his live show back in February or whatever was killer, but the full length album didn't blow me away.

I'm liking the Egyptrixx album so far, but I'm kind of taking it track by track.

oh shit is jacques greene from montreal i had no idea

oh yeah the katy b remix is my other other jacques greene jam

alex are your friends dudes who (used to??) do the night trackin house night at that place in the old port whose name i cant recall always meant to go to one of those

yoga flame major

one can only hope warrior (liverpool) and under armour (spurs) will make as noble a transatlantic fist of the english football shirt as girl unit and kingdom did

Jacques Greene is the best producer associated with Night Slugs at the moment I reckon (assuming Nzungunzu don't count, and Girl Unit is hit-and-miss). Seems to understand the importance of colour and having bass that does something other than throb and glower. A lot of other Night Slugs stuff talks a good game with its technicolour sci-fi landscape synths and the music seems drab in comparison.

Really didn't like the Egyptrixx album at all, have yet to hear any Jam City that's done much for me.

Actually I really like Velour as well.

you know velour = hyetal + julio bashmore, right? i hadn't particularly loved them pre-velour but separately they're kind of blowing my mind this year - hyetal's album is amazing, bashmore's "battle for middle you" was already one of my favourite tracks of the year and then he followed it up with the fantastic batty knee dance ep...

Yeah, Bashmore rules. I think Mosca is great too but he needs to release more stuff.

Julio Bashmore is really good as well.

(Never actually heard of Hyetal, will check that one out).

Velour's really good, yeah. Bumsex references aside ;-) Was reading about Hyetal yesterday, hadn't heard of him before.

also on the batty knee dance ep

my fav trax on the hyetal album (which is a bit of a curveball from his prior productions)
