Techno/House Bobbins of the past

I was really into Exist Dance in college, loved the original three Tranquility Bass "ambient" tracks (Cantamilla, Mya Yadana and They Come in Peace)

Ability II - Pressure (Dub) - this was recently reissued with a Luca Lozano remix but the original dub is the stand-out for me. It's so obviously a rip-off of "LFO" but those delayed vocal snatches really make it.

nice homage to Mad Mike, I hadn't come across this one before!

and this one even more so!

a bit rough on the old sound quality, but the keeper was helpless as this one flew past

Picked up a score of about twenty records from 90s UK house label Vice Versa today in a cheap bin. Pick of the bunch perhaps this one:

That's a new one on me. Good find. I found the following by trawling Amazon mktplace:

These were all around £5 each. Not bad when the standard postage is 1.25 or something. The Blue Maxx one is being reissued I see.

New one to me also, though I have a city high record on that label

A favourite of late, pretty expensive these days tho!

I always forget about Amazon. Some great finds there!

There was a Metamatics reissue earlier this year, so maybe that one will get a reissue soon.

All time

Takes me back to the Rhyl days, Madonna used crack this out in her seafront residency, overplayed but signature

she always used to mix it into this, charnock richard ginsters boys had the tops off as always, arriva first would go on strike!

Underground Solution - Get Happy

Heard the mighty Gwenan playing this the other weekend. Blew my mind, partly because it's so great, and partly because I thought I'd "done my research" on Morgan Geist. Clearly not. Must try harder C-.

The same weekend I also heard Jane Fitz play this absolute pearl.

Mirror Muse (Internal Inspiration) by Pirahnahead. Not on YouTube, so a Spotify link will need to do.

https://open.spotify.com/track/1bH0emy1HzRmiH0hW0sTut

5 go mad at Baskerville Hall?

You got it!

Who else did you hear play there?

Highlights for me apart from Gwenan and Jane Fitz were Hieroglyphic Being, Rick Nicholls, Patrice Scott, Leah Floyeurs and DJ Bus Replacement Service.

as good a place as any to put this friendly number

lovely one this. no its not *that* DFA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gb1IjZhA8hU

Great record, when I bought that I bought it from him directly and he mailed me 4 copies. I mentioned this to someone I knew, and the same thing happened to them too. He must have been sat on a garage full of them

Someone put this on a cassette mix once for me and it blew my mind.

That DFA sounds like Jean-Luc Ponty - Computer Incantations for World Peace:

― Well bissogled trotters (Michael B)

have to ask - is *that* dfa the italian area knockoff from the '90s? cause that's the one i think of.

was listening to satoshi ikeda's 1992 album "a love supreme" and was surprised when track 7, "fall", turned out to be a 12 minute house number. i haven't heard a lot of what happened with city pop in the '90s and i hadn't heard it going blatantly house before. it's definitely crossover stuff, likely nothing that would impress a purist, but i liked it a lot.

no its a guy from Detroit, that one is from 2001 but theres a couple of other releases since

One of the first releases on Cocoon (2003) - lots of nice stuff on this album!

from bondzio to ho, this one is a bit of a surprise, its great!

There's another good version of that too. I think i had made the mistake of writing him off for some reason. Never write anyone off, even Andy Carroll you just never know
