I did like Games better than the other two.

Out of everything I've heard on Crosstown Rebels I liked the Francesca Lombardo release the most. Old School Anna is pretty good.

Josiah Alan, Saturday, 8 September 2012 17:52 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah sorry I assumed so I just wasn't sure cos you were talking about "Infinity" above and "House of Infinity" sounds nothing like MGMT or The Bee Gees to me.

Well obviously they're not singing in an Andy Gibb falsetto, but I hear a really strong pop disco thing going on in there.

I am talking just about the vocals, not the rest of the track. Which sure Carl Craig and a little garage influence.

Josiah Alan, Saturday, 8 September 2012 18:02 (eleven years ago) link

Isn't that just a male house diva thing?

A very very Anglo house diva, I'm not really a huge fan of male singers who mostly resonate through their nose.

Josiah Alan, Saturday, 8 September 2012 18:06 (eleven years ago) link

Which is probably why I hate indie rock with a passion.

Josiah Alan, Saturday, 8 September 2012 18:08 (eleven years ago) link

Now I'm reminded of all the RnB singers who have essentially the same register, I guess I'd rather listen to Jeremih than this. Or NeYo.

In the spirit of not completely being a grouch, this is great.

Josiah Alan, Saturday, 8 September 2012 18:27 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah, and start making techno.

not sure if that's directly aimed at tweaking me or

my friend was telling me abt this on the weekend! wish i could listen at work :(

just sayin, Thursday, 8 August 2013 08:42 (ten years ago) link

i mentioned this! you might also enjoy the ts7 mix of 'antenna': Afrobeats 2013

r|t|c, Thursday, 8 August 2013 09:37 (ten years ago) link

Interzone bubblers and afrobeats should be such a natural fit but that TS7 remix just doesn't work, kinda clunky imo.

Matt DC, Thursday, 8 August 2013 10:21 (ten years ago) link

i'm not sure they're a natural fit at all actually but it's an intriguing clunkyness... would say the fuse is less so cos his vocal is only glancingly afro anyway whereas todd leans on soca caribbean to make it work

my latest music obsession is Todd Edwards, going through his early singles/remixes, and tbh it's hard to find stuff I *don't* like. uk garage is such a particular style, I know the honeymoon can't last -- but then I LOVE the style, and will happily play it for hours on end when the mood strikes.

Dominique, Thursday, 8 March 2018 18:39 (six years ago) link

you should check out his FACT mix from 2009 or so... really great mix of his stuff from that period. kicks off with a banging remix of "burnin down the house" and has a dope enya remix too!
