In which Disclosure, in a pincer move, annex both Schaffel and the territory previously occupied by Jamie Woon:

Sweet, love this.

Heads up: the Royal-T album is excellent.

Tim F, Monday, 10 September 2012 13:49 (eleven years ago) link

I downloaded that this morning and am expecting a reliably bubbly commute home as a result.

Matt DC, Monday, 10 September 2012 13:50 (eleven years ago) link

very tempted to ask what your commute is so i can come watch your bubbly-anticipating face in person

r|t|c, Monday, 10 September 2012 13:54 (eleven years ago) link

It's basically like, say, his FACT mix from last year, only in album form.

Tim F, Monday, 10 September 2012 13:57 (eleven years ago) link

i would have said it's much more of a serious piece than that mix was

r|t|c, Monday, 10 September 2012 14:11 (eleven years ago) link

calling it the music for the jilted generation to the mix's experience might be overstating it a touch but either way i havent been able to stop think of royal-t in terms of liam howlett this week

r|t|c, Monday, 10 September 2012 14:18 (eleven years ago) link

Hmmm yes okay - TBH I'd have to listen to the FACT mix to compare - I basically meant that, pleasingly, it's wall to wall straight bangers.

Tim F, Monday, 10 September 2012 21:08 (eleven years ago) link

Music For The Jilted Generation is a nice point of comparison definitely! Though it makes me wish Royal-T had done a "suite" at the end.

Tim F, Monday, 10 September 2012 21:34 (eleven years ago) link

ah right ok

is it not taken as given by now though that r-t only trades in bangers as such? within that however you can differentiate between the factmix's grime/butterz cheeky delinquency, the adult dance melangey/rinse of the album, maybe in addition even the crowdpleasing hardcore finesse-less punishing bosh of the newer mixes and radio shows (fat of the land?)

even still, 'music box', 'missing aurora'... probably his tenderest work

r|t|c, Monday, 10 September 2012 23:17 (eleven years ago) link

Yes but the history of dance music is littered with the bones of producers who only trade in bangers until their debut album.

Although that hasn't been the case for the album releases on Rinse (which deviation from the norm seems actually to have hurt the artists critically/commercially? Roska at least).

maybe in addition even the crowdpleasing hardcore finesse-less punishing bosh of the newer mixes and radio shows (fat of the land?)

haha, I think at this point the analogy gets a bit strained.

Tim F, Monday, 10 September 2012 23:34 (eleven years ago) link

Yes but the history of dance music is littered with the bones of producers who only trade in bangers until their debut album.

Even if you could afford to I suspect that making a Rinse-branded album full of orchestras, whale noises and Hope Sandoval would be somewhat frowned upon by the people actually releasing yr record.

Had to push in front of a pregnant woman at one point because I really needed a sit down after the first three tracks. It can't quite keep that level up throughout, although the Ruby Lee Ryder track is excellent. Certainly darker than I'd expected although there's still a certain beat-em-up glee to the middle section that makes 'austere' not really the right word.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 11 September 2012 09:05 (eleven years ago) link

haha you honour this album with your none-more-grime actions

r|t|c, Tuesday, 11 September 2012 09:22 (eleven years ago) link

Actually, I was already sitting down at the start.

Back of the bus though.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 11 September 2012 09:26 (eleven years ago) link

no sodcast, no credibility

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Tuesday, 11 September 2012 09:39 (eleven years ago) link

im totally devoted to sunship remixes the last couple of days

SO MUCH FUN

lex pretend, Thursday, 20 September 2012 09:34 (eleven years ago) link

i always feel like i'm missing a zillion football references when it comes to uk rappers though

lex pretend, Thursday, 20 September 2012 09:35 (eleven years ago) link

Eww: It's the Ill Blu Hype Thread

this is imo, the hottest ruffest now-est record i can think of right now

the renascent mk is probably at the very centre of my nu-nu-interzone moodboard tbh

r|t|c, Friday, 21 September 2012 10:43 (eleven years ago) link

I am 100% down with the notion of UKG interzone bubbler remixes of Hot Creations etc but in this case that's only true if they remix out Ali Love.

Matt DC, Friday, 21 September 2012 10:45 (eleven years ago) link

xp like i hear that and think of the gabryelle refix

now i just need reality to back me up

r|t|c, Friday, 21 September 2012 10:47 (eleven years ago) link

yeah matt you say that but for instance how diff is ali love to say sampha on the 'living like i do' lil silva remix

these things are accepted now

r|t|c, Friday, 21 September 2012 10:49 (eleven years ago) link

haha yeah bad taste tuneless vocals only make it more real. And this is very awesome, gabrelle refix is a good ref pt.

Was startled to hear a jackin' remix of Tina Arena's "Chains" on that Nick Hannam dj mix Miko Mcha posted.

Tim F, Friday, 21 September 2012 11:24 (eleven years ago) link

sampha's vocals have never been acceptable either

lex pretend, Friday, 21 September 2012 11:26 (eleven years ago) link

i <3 hot creations though, they're the only people permitted to use r&b samples now (it ensures ali love's absence at least)

forget what thread i should be on now but this set did it for me fwiw

also someone should send that 'cold as ice' thing to dj naughty

r|t|c, Friday, 21 September 2012 12:03 (eleven years ago) link

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5E9SlPOUsKA

this is a funny record (which dj q has played iirc?) all told, like why does it make sense to suddenly go from that to a skippy agent x riddim and back? yet, it does

shadow child is on that moda black comp, this is cool too

oh and look he's remixed that mig campbell i just posted

r|t|c, Friday, 21 September 2012 12:16 (eleven years ago) link

OMG that "Circles" rework.

In a long tradition of "Circles" based tunes all of which I love.

Tim F, Friday, 21 September 2012 12:31 (eleven years ago) link

just ftr this is the other hottest ruffest etc i can think of rn

(turn your bass the fuck up if understanding eludes you)

r|t|c, Friday, 21 September 2012 21:00 (eleven years ago) link

^ oh my days thats good.

Must admit I was hating on Lil Silva Living like i do rmx til I heard it on Qs shows, now its one of my faves of the year. I dare not listen to the original though.

Benny B, Friday, 21 September 2012 21:13 (eleven years ago) link

Wooooooowwwwwwww.

Love how it kinda casually renders irrelevant all the "trap" post-dubstep for a brief stretch in the second half.

Tim F, Friday, 21 September 2012 21:32 (eleven years ago) link

haha ok r|t|c can you email me again and this time include your EMAIL address so that i can write you back please?

never mind listening to the mix, just look at the tracklist and know the game's afoot

not an interzone bubbler - or any good at all really - but it does seem like a sign of the times that a no-nonsense tech-house label like 100% Pure is releasing a speed garage throwback like this

otoh this i very much like:

Benny B, Friday, 5 October 2012 20:45 (eleven years ago) link

yeah love and adore that

http://soundcloud.com/shanayholmes/preditah-worth-the-wait-remix

^ full version (and the funkystepz mix on there isnt too shabby either)

r|t|c, Friday, 5 October 2012 21:48 (eleven years ago) link

http://soundcloud.com/2tone_entertainment/get-outta-that-corner-ft

this was another (more predictable but still) really great preditah remix you mightve missed if not nerding out to q

think it either never came out or it did but without versatile on it or something, i forget now

r|t|c, Friday, 5 October 2012 21:54 (eleven years ago) link

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

also just on the subject of mike delinquent this is AMAZING

r|t|c, Friday, 5 October 2012 21:58 (eleven years ago) link

xp yeah that one too. nerding out to q has been one of my main pass-times in 2012, thanks to this thread tbh.

this new Out of the box mix is sounding good. Lil Silva has really confounded me with his stuff over the last year or so, starting around Cheese n Bun thru to this new one and Living like I do, its like they only really make sense to me when DJ Q plays them.

Benny B, Friday, 5 October 2012 22:16 (eleven years ago) link

* pastimes pastimes

Benny B, Friday, 5 October 2012 22:18 (eleven years ago) link

haha yeah at first i was more drawn to the duke dumont mix of that alunageorge and wasnt taken by the silva but then i went back and made a very deliberate effort to squint my ears and imagine it thru a q prism. does sound like brainwashing but er, i thought it kinda helped...

of course what doesnt help from the other side is knowing fact et al will automatically make meal of any old shit if it's got lil silva's name on

r|t|c, Friday, 5 October 2012 22:49 (eleven years ago) link
