Techno/House Bobbins of the past

Funny how those happy trax records have ended up being his most sought after stuff now!

yes, see also the soul city label! though i imagine part of it is due to the fact that it was pressed in smaller quantities and unlike UR stuff never repressed ...

i love this mix so much

https://www.discogs.com/DJ-Rolando-Sweat-Volume-One/release/131961

Not heard that mix, don't know all that many off it either I don't think, will investigate

I passed up on this a while ago, somehow missed out on realising this track is on it, its pretty expensive now, too late!

Never heard this Kraftwerk track before, I like it a lot. Assumed anything they were doing this late in their career would be a bit thin but this is good!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p15PBeFyP-s

so i first heard this track on this comp

https://www.discogs.com/Various-Nuphonic-02/release/129539

when it first came out (all of 18 years ago!)

and i promptly forgot about it until a few days ago when it popped up in itunes shuffle.

man, what a track! moves through broken beat and larry heard styles before settling on a crispy drum loop from which you can trace a neat line to today's lo-fi producers of note

marginally better encoding here

anyway worth your while to seek out a HQ copy

wow and apparently there's a chaser remix!

crispy drum loop basically Set it Off?

!!!

This is very good!

Bought this yesterday, "Destiny" is a fantastic slice of machine funk

Having never heard of the good man, I'm currently listening to Moments in Dub, & wow...

yes, moments in dub is incredible. one of mo’wax’s best moments.

that marcel track is great, thanks for posting.

dreamy filter house, uk 1996, freaks + darren house..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixqR6euJ5NQ

oh damn, darren house also = yellow sox?? "flim flam" is hot!

the thing i posted is "road trip" by fifth edition

nuphonic threadmindmeld

i also have an mp3 of a dub mix of "road trip" that has a wicked "rude movements" type synth solo

yes i have waxed rhapsodic about "flim flam" on here many times

several years ago i posted that "flim flam" was perfect and eternal and better than any given maurizio or basic channel side (still stand by this) but i can't find it

:-(

Hell yeah. The guitar riff in "film flam" is like a massive glittering comet or something... I've never heard anything like it... totally classic future disco

This is a trip:) A very expensive trip:(

Never come across the artist or label before. the hoodrats - whack messiah

Other side is good too!

Came across this minimal acid gem from late-90s Playhouse for the first time via Nick Hoppner's latest mix for NTS.

He also played this deeeeeeeeep one.

LIKEMIND IS THE SHIT

it sure is

btw imo nuron >> fugue

both are the same guy, amazing stuff in the b12 tradition, but for me his tracks "eau rouge" and "electric arc" (also on likemind) just edge out "contrapoint" as his best work

I'm surprised Philip Sherburne didn't know this stuff already. I guess you can't know it all.

i know it all

at least people tell me i'm a know it all

:)

Cool, I'll check out the label's other releases and the 'nuron' stuff. It looks like there's a comp that has 'Contrapoint' and other things from that era, which may be a somewhat affordable way to get this stuff.

Whatever happened to Nurmad Jusat?

there's a Malaysian racing car driver with the same name but as to whether it the same person or not, seems unknown

ascended to a higher plane

i have that comp. Contrapoint is the best track on there. The pressing is okay, if a little on the quiet side.

if you like this kind of music, these comps are pretty great too

https://www.discogs.com/label/879421-The-Kudos-Digest

Cool, thanks for sharing. I only know the bigger releases from that era (B12, Black Dog, other big stuff on Warp, so these are a great way to get deeper into this sound).

Bring It Home is one of my favourite records but whenever I venture any further into Skulls back catalogue never really find much of interest.

until today!

recommend you check out the dj skull releasesa on chiwax

these two are bobbins of the past

https://www.discogs.com/DJ-Skull-The-DJ-Skull-Saga-Stomping-Grounds/release/9145459

https://www.discogs.com/Skull-Presents-Ron-Maney-2-Entities/release/6371632

the new releases are pretty dope too, especially this one

https://www.discogs.com/DJ-Skull-Mo-Funk-EP/release/10439008

the first two are the two with the best two tracks on! (kissing game, and bring it home). I don't know the third though,will check that out

Bring It Home has become so ubiquitous in recent years, no complaints though, never get bored of it! I love how its so simple and jaunty but also too fast and too slow at the same time and also very seasick, lurching around like a Geordie in the wind

its like when the seabed gets up out of the sea and turns up at the pub on Sunday morning, pockets full of Garys.

my favorite track off those reissues is "reconstruction", which also has that seasick twisting vibe

well this is damn familiar!
