I'd be up for a lo-fi house thread. I hear the lo-fi aspect but to say it sounds "shit", can't agree there (not with the DJ Seinfeld album at least).
Is the Ross from Friends any good?

Maybe it does but that's not necessarily a point in its favour xp
― i know kore-eda (or something), Monday, 4 December 2017 20:49 (six years ago) link
yeah that's what I find so strange about it. Why make all that effort to make something so functionally useless and frustratingly unsatisfying?
― boxedjoy, Monday, 4 December 2017 20:50 (six years ago) link
ahoy mates, its another track from record with the Walt Ever track on - not as good as that one but its got a bit of the same motorbike charm.

Like, one of house music's best features is its functionality and that function is to sound great on the dancefloor. To deliberately make a track sound like shit just seems like hipster fetishism at best

bah essentialismilx has been through all this before on the hipster house thread surely, but i think maybe certain 'raw' house/tech visions of detroit/chicago led to the extreme lofi these guys are proffering, but yeah these new tracks probably don't have enough BOUNCE/dynamic range to rock hips adequately... these people probably are hipsters that like early industrial music and stuff though..

I have, and love, some old Trax stuff etc that sounds like it was pressed on a digestive biscuit but this stuff ain't that

ha for sure! the stuff i like (such as the No Moon track i posted), goes for a more FACT home listening vibe

That No Moon track isn't bad at all, I also loved stuff like Torn Hawk and Eleventeen Eston a couple of years back but they didn't seem intended for the floor
― i know kore-eda (or something), Monday, 4 December 2017 22:04 (six years ago) link
not at all, eleventeen eston is more like instrumental hall and oates demos or something

Any ideas on either of the records Francesco is playing? The Paris one I think mightn't be easy but the Montevideo one seems like it shouldn'tbe too hard. I don't know what either is and they might be better off on the bobbins of the past thread but one of the moderators said that thread isn't accessible to most people, something to do with TCP/IP whatever that is
― saer, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 06:41 (six years ago) link
I reckon we need a "Can you ID this House record played by a Romanian DJ" thread?

how difficult that production style makes mixing w/ vinyl

I'm curious what you mean exactly?
I'm sure you're right about how it sounds on a system. I wouldn't call myself a fan of the lo-fi house thing but I like the over-saturated, over-compressed textures as a deliberate aesthetic choice. Probably better for headphones.

just that when the sounds are smeared out it's difficult to beatmatch accurately
