If you want to hear some crazy metric modulation-based mixed (aka 'triplet mixes'), this mix is a flex:

Yesss that’s the sauce. It’s very compelling in a not especially dancefloor-friendly way. Some of it is quite catchy. It’s sort of filling the same niche as math rock. Or Linkin Park? Could do without more of that.

Quite of few of his own edits on the track list. Some aya too.

Ha yes, I love it in a math rock/minimalist drummer brain way, but is essentially just showing off for other DJs/musicians, I'm sure no one on a dancefloor really cares about the elegance of your shift into a new tempo.
Now I'm going back to my fave MICHAELBRAILEY edits of yore:https://michaelbrailey.bandcamp.com/track/shalt-x-sean-paul-temperature-michaelbrailey-acheron-ultimate-destruction-edit

viborg, you might be interested in the Donato Dozzy record that came out end of last year, as it is at 170 BPM but due to the polyrhythms and such, it truly does not sound like it excepting one track: https://donaotodozzysm.bandcamp.com/album/the-tao
I really like it.

I did the old ‘change the tempo using triplets’ trick on an EP for Cut La Roc about 10 years ago but going from 140bpm breakstep to 93.3bpm hip hop and back. Probably not the best idea to keep people on a dancefloor in retrospect 😂.

playing the hell out of the Kessler, thanks all.
is there a good way to search mix tracklists, to find out who's putting "Only A Fool" into their sets and what they're playing alongside it?
― lukas, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 21:45 (two years ago) link
Heh let me know if you find a better way, but I just use google and the search on the NTS site. I guess there's mixesdb.com, but that seems kinda limited.
― change display name (Jordan), Tuesday, 30 November 2021 22:19 (two years ago) link
hmmm if mixesdb is to be believed no one has had the courage to play Only A Fool
― lukas, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 22:57 (two years ago) link
Looks like it was maybe played on this Optimo mix way back in 2016, is that the same track?https://www.nts.live/shows/optimo/episodes/optimo-25th-june-2016

This is cool, kinda reminds me of Lone in the way it shifts between dance, beats, IDM-ish tracks, and ambient, but I like J. Albert better:https://towheadrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/phase-portrait

Oh -- nunu's debut album, self-released, which I haven't had the occasion give proper attention to yet, but love what I've heard. Hard ambient, sort of cinematic + ecstatic sound design, apparently each track made from the same samples and synths:https://nununtp.bandcamp.com/album/cycle

I think this fits on here?

I don’t love all of it but the highlights (like Dirasat ‘Ulya and Ikmal) are pretty amazing

I'm so over giant compilations, but I've been going through the most recent Juke Bounce Werk comp and it's very high-quality, lots of fun tracks (mostly 160 but gets more varied in the back half):https://jukebouncewerk.bandcamp.com/album/juke-bounce-werk-presents-jbdubz-vol-9
And I'm not sure if this has been posted above, but I slept on it and it's amazinghttps://hausofaltr.bandcamp.com/album/black-rave-cultureBlack Rave Culture, D.C. producer trio including James Bangura.
Happy New Year, ugh guess I have to come up with a 2022 thread title now.

Is there a new thread? Nothing to report on yet, but curious!

I'll start one. Title suggestions???

"Structure? What structure? Rolling Re-Deconstructed Club Music 2021."
Or something like that?

Thanks, chose to keep it simple, and resisted calling it "Rolling Reconstructed Club Music 2022: Resurrections"
