Optimo

you can expect to get down.

Do you know what time you might be on this Friday at T bar, stirmonster?

I'd love to go but can't stay out super late

they have been a tad slack in giving me any info. i will post back when i find out. i'm hoping not super late either as i have an intense weekend and could do with fitting in some sleep at some point.

Thanks. Hope to see you there!

12.30 - 02.30

what was that amazing Q Lazarus edit/remix?

soooo is this place still as cool as six years ago when the thread was started?

it was cool when I went last summer.

ditto

still the shit

I can't answer for the Optimo guys obviously but could it be the Krikor edit ("Goodbye Horses" without the chorus, just keeps building up?)

what was that amazing Q Lazarus edit/remix?

it was the krikor edit with a loop of this insanely heavy felix da housecat drum track mixed over it.

soooo is this place still as cool as six years ago when the thread was started?

i dunno if it is, or ever was cool, but it's still immensely good fun. tonight - amazing crowd + amazing atmosphere + gavin russom live analogue intensity = my perfect club night.

Anyone heard this yet?

Okay definitely getting this, Reynolds makes it sound great.

also don't know much about this beyond the poster but am looking forward to it:

Plus Juan Maclean. Expensive month for an unemployed soul.

gah. apologies for the size.

Nah that's cool, it's a great poster! Hmmm can I make it up to Glasgow that weekend?

OK, so about 1:44:00 into Optimo's incredible Essential Mix, they drop this jaw-dropping remix of "Hallogallo", labeled as the "Mary Hill Rework". I have been searching for this thing for well over a year and a half, and the only other mention I can find of it is on http://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/5956. Has anyone ever come across this before?? Was it rereleased under a different moniker/title/etc? I would kind of sell my kidney to get a hold of this...

Is it Dingered & Rothered - Betty Botox?

off Betty's sublime kraut ep.

i'm afraid the remix of "hallogallo" was never released. it was done by jg wilkes and we did talk about putting it out but that idea fell by the wayside somewhere along the line.

In Order to Edit mix is great BTW.

xxp is there any chance it might be released/"reissued" in the future? It's rock fucking solid

Is it from the Mount Florida/Mary Hill Krautrock split that was announced/unreleased?

Holy shit, this Betty Botox KRAUT EP is quite sublime, indeed!!

Is it from the Mount Florida/Mary Hill Krautrock split that was announced/unreleased?

it was indeed. the mount florida track ended up on betty's kraut ep.

Todd Terje lists the Optimo Remix of They Came From The Stars I Saw Them as his number 1 in his dj chart on juno this month (even though it came out nearly 3 years ago...!)

u got sicrolled

apparently

P.S. stirmonster I saw you at the Barbary in Philly back in January (and shook your hand and told you how much I loved "How to Kill the DJ, part 2") and it was one of the greatest things my friend and I ever saw. Do you remember the show well? How was it in relation to a typical night at Optimo?

Damn, "In Order to Edit" kills, that Speedjack-into-The-Mover transition is astonishing- not to be all old skool bruv, but it brings me back to hearing The Mover DJ at VFM many many many years ago.

How was it in relation to a typical night at Optimo

i can't really remember what i was playing but i do remember shaking your hand and i also remember it being one of my favourite us gigs. i love philly! i'm back next month (not sure where yet).

i need to go to optimo again sometime, got a job that means i'm often off on Mondays now so no excuse.

Aaah, let me know the date as soon as you find out so I can get off work! NYC's overblown; Philly rules :)

anybody else going to Alter Ego / Twitch / Fixed party at Knitting Factory Brooklyn tomorrow?

been laid up due to illness all week so couldn't get into town, so does anyone know if there are tickets left for The Field, if so should I head into town and get some from somewhere if possible or should I get one on the door?

this was fun btw

are they pre-selling Field tickets? usually it's just on the door but when they do pre-sell some sub club gigs i think it's only half in advance so you should get in easily if you turn up just before the doors open.

that's the other worry. I think I'm seeing the Flaming Lips with a friend that night, which means (depending on where that gig is) I won't be making to the Sub Club until gone 11. Would be pretty annoyed if I missed The Field in order to see the Flaming Lips.

And I quote:

We just got asked to do a Fabric mix cd (due May 2010). Exciting!

looking forward to seeing this handsome young man in a warehouse in Sydney come Saturday night:

^^^ where on earth did you dig that up from?
