What an incestuous group of retro-loving disco lame-os.

― Confounded (Confounded), Friday, 28 July 2006 21:01 (seventeen years ago) link

i have a couple of the rub n tug tracks up from spoonful of leather on my blog

http://blacknoise.blogspot.com it would be cool to get ids. I just found out that LA is thick with this stuff and the dates up above with mathew johnson and lee douglas look awesome

― hector (hector), Friday, 28 July 2006 21:10 (seventeen years ago) link

by the way how far into spacey jazz does anyone think this stuff can veer? Lonnie Liston Smith, Pharoah Sanders?

― hector (hector), Friday, 28 July 2006 21:14 (seventeen years ago) link

Don't think any of this is really in that vein, but here's some of Loda's favorite jazz and fusion tracks [from here]:

Jazz / Fusion:
Tony Esposito - Processione sul mare
Billy Cobham - Stratus
Harbie Hancock - Chameleon / Hang Up Your Hang Ups
Ralph MacDonald: Jam on the Groove
The Crusaders - Stomp and Buck Dance
Don Cherry - Brown Rice

IDRIS MUHAMMAD - Could Heaven Be Like This

― mark grebt (sanskrit), Friday, 28 July 2006 21:39 (seventeen years ago) link

^^ major space jazz soul

― mark grebt (sanskrit), Friday, 28 July 2006 21:40 (seventeen years ago) link

^^ also the main sample for the latest Kris Menace/Lifelike filter-disco jam.

Jazz in the late 70s / early 80s (jazz goes pop, jazz goes disco)

― Mike Hooter (jaxon), Friday, 28 July 2006 21:47 (seventeen years ago) link

George Benson's El Barrio would fit nicely into one of these sets I think.

― hector (hector), Friday, 28 July 2006 21:50 (seventeen years ago) link

when idris is good he's good but when he's bad i want to raep my cats with a lava lamp

― a name means a lot just by itself (lfam), Friday, 28 July 2006 21:56 (seventeen years ago) link

is the The The track from Soul Mining? You know Thomas Leer worked on some of Soul Mining. Thomas Leer is THE cosmic/New Wave crossover god.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 28 July 2006 22:30 (seventeen years ago) link

Spurred on by Mike (who also provided it to me) I gotta agree, that Starlight rekkid is excellent.

― Raw Patrick (Raw Patrick), Friday, 28 July 2006 22:33 (seventeen years ago) link

Wait, so Rub 'n' Tug vol. 2/Spoonful of Leather/whatever is an edits album, not a mix?

― Telephonething (Telephonething), Friday, 28 July 2006 22:50 (seventeen years ago) link

it's both

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 28 July 2006 23:26 (seventeen years ago) link

not quite sure its a mix cause there is a clear deliniation between tracks

― hector (hector), Friday, 28 July 2006 23:34 (seventeen years ago) link

(not really on topic of beardo disco here) but I was looking through the clearance rack at Ross today and all of a sudden, 'Good Times' comes over the store speakers. Ah... and I found an awesome shirt, too. Thanks Chic!

― trees (treesessplode), Saturday, 29 July 2006 01:28 (seventeen years ago) link

Currently listening to this, I guess this belongs on this thread... regardless, it's Great!

― willem -- (willem), Saturday, 29 July 2006 13:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I would like to hear some of that six cups of rebel.

― hector (hector), Saturday, 29 July 2006 16:56 (seventeen years ago) link

you can catch another track of the ep here...

― willem -- (willem), Saturday, 29 July 2006 17:14 (seventeen years ago) link

cool blog, i got it bookmarked now

― hector (hector), Saturday, 29 July 2006 17:32 (seventeen years ago) link

also the main sample for the latest Kris Menace/Lifelike filter-disco jam

not sure if you're talking about the "I Feel Music in your Heart" remix, but that's a great track

― Dominique (dleone), Saturday, 29 July 2006 20:10 (seventeen years ago) link

I am.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Saturday, 29 July 2006 20:28 (seventeen years ago) link

The Escort 12" is the summer jam of the year for me.

I haven't heard (of) this. Details please?

And returning to the Whatever We Want questions ...

How is the new Map of Africa? Who is Godsy? Why do they press so few copies?

― Jamie T Smith (Jamie T Smith), Saturday, 29 July 2006 20:59 (seventeen years ago) link

I haven't heard (of) this. Details please?

It's called "Starlight" (Escort 001) and it's AWESOME. Such a convincing '70s disco sound that I can't believe it came out this year.

― Mr. Snrub (Mr. Snrub), Saturday, 29 July 2006 21:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Thanks.

Escort isn't the easiest thing to google!

― Jamie T Smith (Jamie T Smith), Saturday, 29 July 2006 21:21 (seventeen years ago) link

Godsy = Gareth Goddard = Cherrystones

― Telephonething (Telephonething), Saturday, 29 July 2006 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link

i think a fair question would be does Whatever We Want intentionally print small runs and decline repressings in order to capitalize on the DJ/digger fallacy that rare/$$$/OOP = great record? can't hurt on getting the press to pick up on your scent.

i'm not attacking them here, just wondering if it's a strategy. a pretty smart one if it is. magazine writeups and dj gigs can be a lot more valuable than the margin on a few boxes of records.

― mark grebt (sanskrit), Saturday, 29 July 2006 22:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I say yes and who the hell can blame them! Also, it's not like other musicians don't do the same. Noise groups? It's a fucking forest of this sort of 'marketing.'

― trees (treesessplode), Sunday, 30 July 2006 03:54 (seventeen years ago) link

re starlight
ahh! finally something to spend that last remaining free itunes song on

and, what new map of africa?

― a name means a lot just by itself (lfam), Sunday, 30 July 2006 04:19 (seventeen years ago) link

'the sound of the fens'.

― HPSTRKRFT (haitch), Sunday, 30 July 2006 05:16 (seventeen years ago) link

whatever we want's website says they've got an mp3 store coming at some point.

― HPSTRKRFT (haitch), Sunday, 30 July 2006 07:04 (seventeen years ago) link

jesus i've seen both of their other singles called 'the sound of the fens' at some point or another

― a name means a lot just by itself (lfam), Sunday, 30 July 2006 13:07 (seventeen years ago) link

and that is why i never clicked through to that

― a name means a lot just by itself (lfam), Sunday, 30 July 2006 13:08 (seventeen years ago) link

The Rub-n-Tug mix for Fabric comes out next month. No tracklist yet, the only posted info is the cover, but I Are Exciteds.

― Telephonething (Telephonething), Sunday, 30 July 2006 18:41 (seventeen years ago) link

mmm yesss

― gaseous (gaseous), Sunday, 30 July 2006 22:49 (seventeen years ago) link

It's kind of a pain in the arse, though. You decide to stop stealing people's music on mp3 and actually like buy some records, but only if they're sexy and exciting. Then all the records you feel like buying are so hard to get hold of you end up just downloading them on mp3 again.

Yeah, I thought the one with Dirty Lovin and Off The Coast was called the sound of the fens too. I wonder what it refers to as well. I thought 'fen' was only a East Anglian word/thing.

Rub & tug were at Fabric last weekend, but I couldn't make it. Did anyone go?

Is anyone else playing this sort of stuff in London at the minute?

― Jamie T Smith (Jamie T Smith), Monday, 31 July 2006 12:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Just got the Rub-n-Tug Better with a Spoonful of Leather mix in the mail and it is an absolute delight. You could view it as just LOL SCREWED DISCO WOT LARFS, but it just works far better than it should.

― Telephonething (Telephonething), Thursday, 3 August 2006 04:24 (seventeen years ago) link

You could view it as just LOL SCREWED DISCO WOT LARFS, but it just works far better than it should.

it'd be a lot LOLer if there weren't DJs doing this shit for 25 years in italy

― jaxon (jaxon), Thursday, 3 August 2006 05:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Bitter much?

Better than releasing all ninety of your mixes on CASSETTE.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Thursday, 3 August 2006 05:26 (seventeen years ago) link

who did that?!

― HPSTRKRFT (haitch), Thursday, 3 August 2006 05:32 (seventeen years ago) link

Beppe Loda, back in the '80s.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Thursday, 3 August 2006 05:40 (seventeen years ago) link

and baldelli, in the 70s and 80s
and dj mozart

― a name means a lot just by itself (lfam), Thursday, 3 August 2006 06:00 (seventeen years ago) link

We could namedrop all day or we could DANCE

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Thursday, 3 August 2006 07:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Anyone got any track IDs for the Rub n Tug mix other than Soft Cell - Heat, Gino Soccio - Visitors and the King Crimson one that I can't remember the title of? (And I can't tell you track numbers for those as I'm at work, sorry.)

― Raw Patrick (Raw Patrick), Thursday, 3 August 2006 07:34 (seventeen years ago) link

nobody really dances to that Cosmic crap, you can't even get people to dance to Metro Area in NYC...TOO SLOW.

fucking losers.

What would be great is the chance to hear Beppe Loda in an intimate setting, like a small, cozy bar.
