Mark E, The Revenge & Slow-Motion House/Disco

no, i actually want to know what that stuff sounds like ... when i first got into slo mo house i scoured the net for those five20east singles but it seems like they never really made it to mp3

they look like big beat albums to my eyes, but as i said, i've never heard them.

yeah i think it is sort of a "condition" afflicting all of dance music ... the DJ / producer divide. although often that leads down a boring trail (functionalism vs auterism, etc).

i was more wondering if you thought there was a specific reason that line of thought was particularly applicable to this style, except for the fact that it seems like these guys are sorta flailing at the moment.

oh well i would theorize that, in particular, slow mo disco doesnt seem particularly fun back to back to back in a dj set ... lots of dance movements come out of ~dance scenes~ as opposed to this which feels more producer-led

part of this is that i dont think ive ever been to a party or club where more than 1-2 tracks 'like this' were played where ppl were actually dancing

but maybe im outside the loop on that one

typically shift into idk whatever hercules & love azari & Cut Copy track is hot at the moment

anyway time for the ILX premier (i think?) of my fav slow dance jam '11!!!

for some reason i always picture the 'heart' of this scene being some musty northern uk pub with lots of pasty looking dudes in track jackets

oh, and for vah1d

i think 2011 has especially been a bummer year for this stuff because all these guys are now releasing full length albums, and this is a sound (as deej noted) that really gets stale when played back to back for considerable amounts of time. at least we got a few good cuts on the mark e and 6th borough lps, and everything tiger & woods has put out this year just keeps sounding better the more times i hear it

yes! especially

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXKK21bHJ_4

i'd like a whole album by these guys atually

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T5icZQgpT8

no ones gonna step into a club they got booked to play and drop a whole set of this stuff, especially past midnight, and especially if they're the out-of-town headliner.

no dj is an island, etc.

i cant remember what track it was, but i was playing something straight off of this thread at this lounge bar i had a regular gig at. i'd always stay in this style from about 9:00 or 10:00 PM until about 11:30, slowly working my way from below 100 bpm up to around 116 over the course of an hour or two. about a half hour in to my set, (and a good 6 minutes in to the track i was playing), the bar was just starting to fill up, and this past-middle-aged sex-in-the-city looking lady got up from her s eataround the corner, walked up to my booth, gave me an exasperated look and just exclaimed "switch it up please!! its getting monotonous!!!"

i can't remember but i think i might have been playing this:

and then she was all "If this is house..."

ha otm.

that is 6th borough's best song imo

"just a memory", surely.

no ones gonna step into a club they got booked to play and drop a whole set of this stuff, especially past midnight, and especially if they're the out-of-town headliner.

I've seen the Revenge play post-midnight sets of all his own stuff when he's the out-of-hemisphere headiner

once he did a front-room and a back-room set, and all but about five people ditched the main room for the slower-mo Revenge second set

(first set might not have been his own shit, I don't remember)

I could still dance to "Rnb Drunkie" for hours if I had the chance to.

would totally dance post midnight to this stuff. For hours. If the 'chill' thing managed to find a club audience then I don't really see why this can't. I guess we're living in a post Ibiza morning after continue clubbing world though. Wonder how this stuff is going down in Europe actually.

goddamn this suzanne kraft ep on running back nails this slo mo disco thing, such a grower

And what about this? (Kassem Mosse: "Demo Drums")

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edBQgDwmBIk&feature=related

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxF1Y9ozSSs

anyway love this

^ i like that one

this is definitely a slo mo jam

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

it was released on a comp this year but i guess it's actually 2 years old? woops

Really into that Eddie C album. Space Shuttle is incredible. It sounds really familiar too, is it a sample of Ash Ra or Gottsching?

love the lush-sounding samples from this disc.

Just got the Eddie C album too. 9 (of 12) tracks in and already hands-down solid! I'd been playing the hell out of certain individual tracks (do it yourself!!!!!!), but I'm really very please so far at how this works as an album. Tip!

Fantastic new slo-mo funk/disco mix from Atlanta's DJ Osmose...

You can grab what's effectively a new, free Tiger & Woods album at http://running-back-records.tumblr.com/

wiki & leaks lol

thanks for the heads up btw!

they sure are married to the ____ & ____ thing huh

loving both the DJ Osmose mix and Tiger + Woods thing

Heard this out last night. Very Nice.

does anyone have any cole medina mixes? i have disk union #1 and am pretty heartbroken that 2 and 3 aren't available anymore. or this 'Homesick, L.A. Vibe Radio' mix mayhaps?

would also kill for his unreleased ep vol 3, just fwiw yall

really don't know where to put this but it's good.

Is it just me or does Track #5 end prematurely on Vicki & Leekx? Shame because it's prob my fav track. Oh well, I still have my RA version of it.
And reppin Eddie C as a fantastic live DJ. Tiger & Woods had visa problems or something and he stepped in, fantastic night. His album still has to grow on me.

yeah, that track ends abruptly. my fav track along with #11. anyone knows the original song of each edit?

www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AT7ebvPs14&feature=channel_video_title

this is probably the thread I missed most during the Sandbox period

not sure if this is technically an edit or if they just use the sample from "how long", but i've been enjoying this:

the rest of the ep isn't shabby either

nina kraviz played this faster and it's perfect for the beginning of her set.
