it seems like a lot are sold in the UK online shops, but maybe that's just them being ahead of the curve? I guess some are sold in Detroit and Chicago? The only thing I've seen in NYC are UE boots.

it came out as a really limited 10" (300 copies) then got heavily bootlegged in europe so i'm guessing that's why they have made more of the 10" available. interesting that it reminds you of coil jay vee.

Also search ! TP's remix of "In The Bush" by Kent on Bearfunk.

Yeah, you can generally find Theo's stuff at Record Time in Ferndale/Roseville (aka Detroit 'burbs). I'm pretty sure they have mailorder, but can't say for sure (I live near the one store).

theo at the redbull music academy

Thanks so much for that link...I was going to go see Mr. Parrish DJ tonight here in Toronto, but this lecture is hitting the spot. Red Bull Music Academy on the whole is quite the goldmine!

i wish he'd come back to new zealand again.

Okay, so it looks like Theo is the cover star of the newest Groove magazine. I know one of you has translated the article and is ready to paste it all here for us to enjoy right? Also, the cd that comes with this issue has a track called "Jam One" by Mr. Parrish and it looks like it says it's from the album Stereotype to be released in Fall 2006. There is some other message after this that I can't translate (probably something like "This album may not actually come out ever, but we can surely hope"). This information can be seen here: http://www.groove.de/tracklist.php?id=18

― matt2 (matt2), Wednesday, 26 July 2006 19:24 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh yeah, so my actual question was: does anyone have any details about this new album Stereotype?

― matt2 (matt2), Thursday, 27 July 2006 00:07 (seventeen years ago) link

groove cover? why are germans and japonais always so ahead of the curve?

Apparently, there is a new Theo triple vinyl on the way. Couldn't be more excited. The sound clips justify the excitement:

did anyone reach theo @ plastic people on sunday? so good. really want an id on the first track he played, a slow lurching shuffley house groove replete with out of time massively swung hi hats and a guy singing "we're going downstairs, we're going downstairs" or something for like 15 minutes. pretty sure it was a theo production. i lost my mind at the point where he dropped what i assume was one of the ugly edits that i aint heard yet, 20 + minutes of this shivery funk guitar thing that culminated in dudes literally on their hands and knees pounding the ground in some kind of religious fervour. so so good. he played lots of good acid as well in his everything-and-the-kitchen sink stylee.

― rio natsume, Thursday, 22 February 2007 16:04 (seventeen years ago) link

listening to those soundclaps he def played the first tune with the vocal (which was ace) and i think the last acidy one.

― rio natsume, Thursday, 22 February 2007 16:10 (seventeen years ago) link

those parrish mix cds are still yoga flame for all time. keep on using the EQ knob like it's gonna fall off if you don't, theo.

― strongohulkington, Thursday, 22 February 2007 16:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Is this a positive or negative statement "yoga flame for all time"? If I had heard one, I guess I'd know judging by whether he fiddled with the EQ on them, but are you telling me to get this or not.

― matt2, Thursday, 22 February 2007 16:49 (seventeen years ago) link

does anyone know if this is any good?

― haitch, Thursday, 22 February 2007 22:34 (seventeen years ago) link

It's the heavy heavy monsta sound! Slow, deep & hard w/ear-shattering hi hats.

― blunt, Friday, 23 February 2007 02:54 (seventeen years ago) link

comes in at 29' in this streamed dj mix (use realplayer to listen):

Theo's myspace has the lovely album art for Sound Sculptures, Vol. 1

and Rush Hour says it's "In next week!" I wonder how long that's been the case, though.

― matt2, Wednesday, 18 April 2007 16:41 (seventeen years ago) link

The mp3 clips for it at Hardwax sound amazing.

― Michael F Gill, Sunday, 22 April 2007 10:23 (seventeen years ago) link

in stock at phonica and juno, get in dere dudes.

i ended up getting that 'in the bush' remix. blunt's synopsis = otm.

― haitch, Sunday, 22 April 2007 11:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Anybody have any clue where this can be ordered in the US? No TTL, no Forced Exposure, where else to look?

― matt2, Tuesday, 24 April 2007 15:32 (seventeen years ago) link

you'll have to go to detroit, probably

Why don't you just send me one and no one has to say a thing.

― matt2, Tuesday, 24 April 2007 17:58 (seventeen years ago) link

i'll have to quiz you extensively on trackmode's back catalog and ask to see your electrifying mojo club card

― moonship journey to baja, Tuesday, 24 April 2007 18:03 (seventeen years ago) link

While I'd love to be a member of the Midnight Funk Association, and in my heart I always will be, here's hoping Mr. Monfresh Recastow and his 100% Ebay rating (only 99.1% on Discogs) comes through for me. Be honest, this is you isn't it vahid?

Also available at Emporium50 (which I think is run by Mike Grant)

― gnippiks, Wednesday, 25 April 2007 07:28 (seventeen years ago) link

emporium is cool but last time i ordered they were all like "you must email us back immediately before we go on vacation tomorrow! otherwise you will have to wait two weeks until we start shipping." LOL Detroit.

― Michael F Gill, Wednesday, 25 April 2007 11:28 (seventeen years ago) link

i had to sell the few ugly edits i had because they were pressed so poorly and japanese dudes will pay through the nose for that stuff regardless.

― sanskrit, Wednesday, 25 April 2007 11:40 (seventeen years ago) link

I forgot about Emporium50. I even had it bookmarked. Submerge is only good if it's been out for about three months already and Record Time seems to have been last updated about two years ago.

― matt2, Wednesday, 25 April 2007 15:58 (seventeen years ago) link

i like the b-side of ugly edit ten (which i paid 16 or 17 bucks for at dr wax - the cheapest its sold?) but the a-side (i think) was less good. ugly edit 7 is the best i've heard but i really like a fair number of them

― deej, Wednesday, 25 April 2007 16:58 (seventeen years ago) link

Vibes is at 14500 W 8 Mile Rd. in Oak Park; call 248-967-9904 for hours and more information.

― Display Name, Thursday, 26 April 2007 03:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Don't want to fall into initial listen hyperbole or anything but I finally got this, and it sounds like a masterpiece. Utterly focused and completely on point.

― matt2, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 03:07 (seventeen years ago) link

C'mon, surely someone else wants to gush with me. This is the first time in quite a while I've completely abandoned my frantic blog downloading because I'm totally content to just sit and listen to this. The immediate standout to me is "The Rink" aka Moodymann Tribute as Ugly Edit. That's gotta be a Marvin sample. And the last disc is perfect. "Soul Control" is a great almost straight-up house tune with great vocals and "Synthetic Flemm" (with Omar S) bangs bangs bangs with acid-y flourishes and is a great kinda-followup to the also great "Renaissance" by T.O.M. Project.

As I said, though, something about this just feels so focused and tight.

― matt2, Thursday, 3 May 2007 19:30 (sixteen years ago) link

Sounds like I could gush along, but I'm not gonna hurry and find/blag it.

― blunt, Thursday, 3 May 2007 19:36 (sixteen years ago) link

no one can afford it!!

― resolved, Thursday, 3 May 2007 19:40 (sixteen years ago) link

It is annoyingly difficult to find and expensive when found. But like gnippiks linked above, it is at least available at Emporium50.

― matt2, Thursday, 3 May 2007 20:45 (sixteen years ago) link

I think it'll be out on CD soon, no? I really can't afford the $30+ at the moment

― Michael F Gill, Thursday, 3 May 2007 20:57 (sixteen years ago) link

One would hope. I would like to have a high quality digital version, but it's always hard to know what to expect.

― matt2, Thursday, 3 May 2007 22:29 (sixteen years ago) link

how is the pressing?

― tricky, Friday, 4 May 2007 03:30 (sixteen years ago) link

this is sounding pretty great. of course the sample cuts off just enough to whet the anticipation even more.

― tricky, Friday, 4 May 2007 03:34 (sixteen years ago) link

WHEN THE MORNING COMES on apricot. CLASSIC.

― Jah Q Areas, Friday, 4 May 2007 15:03 (sixteen years ago) link

Yeah, I saw that Omar S/Theo release too. Luckily Omar S makes his FXHE easier and cheaper to get off the FXHE website as long as it's in stock.

The pressing on the Theo album sounds pretty great to me. Lots of low end thump and crystal clear on the high end.
