what's the story w/maurice fulton's myspace? it has this as it's tagline: "U Have Tigersushi, You Will NOT Be Added"

― jaxon, Saturday, 24 March 2007 19:45 (seventeen years ago) link

former label beef i assume

― strongohulkington, Saturday, 24 March 2007 19:54 (seventeen years ago) link

wasn't there a mu track that ripped into tigersushi?

― strongohulkington, Saturday, 24 March 2007 19:54 (seventeen years ago) link

longstanding record label beef

see Mu's "Tigerbastard" etc.

there's a thread where people talk about it, I'll try to find it

― dmr, Saturday, 24 March 2007 19:54 (seventeen years ago) link

lol xposts

― dmr, Saturday, 24 March 2007 19:55 (seventeen years ago) link

i think stirmonster talks about it on this thread.

basically, his beef isnt with joakim, its with the guy who handled the business side of things.

― g®▲Ðұ, Saturday, 24 March 2007 19:57 (seventeen years ago) link

marissa's beef is with joachim.

― g®▲Ðұ, Saturday, 24 March 2007 19:58 (seventeen years ago) link

seems like fulton's going a little overboard with the beef since the shit happened years ago and the guy in question doesn't work for the label anymore

― dmr, Saturday, 24 March 2007 19:59 (seventeen years ago) link

ok, so its not on this thread.

fwiw, i added MF while having Tigersushi as a friend.

ya srsly want to hear.

― the table is the table, Thursday, 29 March 2007 00:13 (seventeen years ago) link

the quiet village toby tobias is pretty cool

http://www.discogs.com/release/890884

not very beardo really

― dmr, Thursday, 29 March 2007 00:16 (seventeen years ago) link

^^^i like that one. not crazy about the gorillaz remix.

I am loving all the new Rong stuff. thier website may never come to be but the recent stuff is really great, if not really that beardo. Tim Sweeney played what I assume is a forthcoming Lee Douglas track on his show last week that sounds great. Deep and disco-ey like the last one.

I think Rong should get its own thread.

― g®▲Ðұ, Thursday, 29 March 2007 00:50 (seventeen years ago) link

The Rong 2cd comp is pretty solid.

Quiet Village remixes are becoming increasingly samey tempo/texture wise, although I guess the quality control hasn't dipped so much. I think I still prefer their "original" material at the moment.

― Michael F Gill, Thursday, 29 March 2007 01:25 (seventeen years ago) link

they might be samey, but the tempo/texture is so lush & good that i don't really care. i think that this quality can be attributed to lots of DJs' and producers' remixes... i've almost never heard a Carl Craig remix that i couldn't tell was a CC remix pretty quickly, but for the most part they're good. yknow?

― the table is the table, Thursday, 29 March 2007 02:24 (seventeen years ago) link

my housemate pointed out that the drums in the quiet village mix of ''DAVE'S SEX BITS sound like 'africa' by toto.

lol at the weirdo re-edit of "Walk The Night" over at http://www.keyboardmasher.com/

funny that site doesnt have lovefingers or bumrocks on its links page.

wow, that edit is really retarded

― jaxon, Thursday, 29 March 2007 06:11 (seventeen years ago) link

I should send him/her my re-edit of "wheel my out" where I loop the first 2 bars over and over.

― Michael F Gill, Thursday, 29 March 2007 06:59 (seventeen years ago) link

funny grady...just emailed the same comment to michael before seeing this here.

― dan selzer, Thursday, 29 March 2007 09:46 (seventeen years ago) link

that johnny mathis disco track on robotsinheat sort of exemplifies a lot of music on these cosmic/easy pop/disco blogs, taking those one or two bizarro piece from well known artists catalogue and giving it some new cratedigger life.

here's an imaginary mixtape i would make out of this kind of stuff:

paul mccartney - temporary secretary
paul mccartney - let 'em in
johnny mathis - gone gone gone
something from chubby checker's psych record
osmonds - i, i, i
the who - eminence front
alan parsons - mammagamma
greg kihn - jeopardy (instrumental)
cat stevens - was dog a doughnut?
frankie valli - beggin'
neil young - computer age

― Michael F Gill, Thursday, 29 March 2007 12:45 (seventeen years ago) link

there's a really good "d-i-r-t-y edits" of beggin'

by these guys from France ... they've done a bunch of cool ones

http://www.d-i-r-t-y.com/edits.html

the most recent jj cale is good too

this kathy diamond is pretty great

― deej, Thursday, 29 March 2007 15:31 (seventeen years ago) link

i'm kinda torn on that kathy diamond. i really like it, the music's really great and some of the textures are fab, but every once in a while, and maybe it's her voice, i feel like i'm listening to some mid 90s trip hop. kruder or zero 7 type stuff.

Re: "I think Rong should get its own thread."

Vahid here http://www.ilxor.com/ILX/ThreadSelectedControllerServlet?boardid=41&threadid=51350:

"the tussle+dj spun/BC connection is that there are more interesting things going on w/ dub vs electronic music these days than basic channel. i just wanted to get that out there, but if i were to start a thread on west coast house = I GET NO HITS, so i troll these threads."

vahid (vahid) on Thursday, 1 February 2007 19:55 (1 month ago)

Looks like now's your chance. I'd be interested, as all the Rong I've heard is Lee Douglas and Tussle, but I love 'em both.

― matt2, Thursday, 29 March 2007 19:02 (seventeen years ago) link

"all the Rong I've heard is Lee Douglas and Tussle"

the How + Why edits are cool
no idea what the originals of those are

also the NY House'n Authority record which I think is a reissue b/w a remix

― dmr, Thursday, 29 March 2007 19:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Thanks. I'll be sure to check those out.

― matt2, Thursday, 29 March 2007 19:37 (seventeen years ago) link

I believe all the Tu Rong stuff are Nu Groove reissues

This is indeed the case.

Sort of off-topic, but this is really the only active thread that's even a remotely appropriate place to ask: GAMM re-edits, any good? There's a CD out now and I'm tempted to pick it up and see what the fuss is about.

― Telephone thing, Thursday, 29 March 2007 20:46 (seventeen years ago) link

did you guys know chic produced an album for johnny mathis

― deej, Thursday, 29 March 2007 20:49 (seventeen years ago) link

apparently languishing in the vaults : (

― deej, Thursday, 29 March 2007 20:49 (seventeen years ago) link

GAMM re-edits, any good?

I've only heard a couple ... they're okay but a little too cocktail-lounge for me .... more of a jazzy broken-beat type thing

I'm talking about the stuff like Red Astaire "Follow Me" which is a jazz xylophone + hard drum loop with Method Man over the top. not sure if that's what you're asking about.

― dmr, Thursday, 29 March 2007 21:05 (seventeen years ago) link

a ny thing is putting out rub&tug tshirts. i want!

lol I thought you hated that mix

maybe they can customize yours with "HI I LISTEN TO BEPPE LODA TOO" printed on the back!

― dmr, Thursday, 29 March 2007 21:28 (seventeen years ago) link

gamm is EXCELLENT ... but yeah, it's broken beat, so your mileage is going to vary. i wouldn't call it "cocktail" / "loungey" because then people are going to think of combustible edison!!

think mf doom or pete rock type dusty jazz loops but with a dancier sensibility (it's basically post-post-post-acid jazz dance, they even do a pharoah sanders cover!)

and "follow me" is like total destruction on the dancefloor and mega-addictive on the iPod. you must truly hate fun if you don't enjoy this!

― moonship journey to baja, Thursday, 29 March 2007 21:29 (seventeen years ago) link

in nyc if broken beat is on, people are generally hanging out drinking, not destroying the dancefloor ... at least in my experience

that's all i meant by cocktail lounge

"follow me" is a cool song but I never felt the need to start collecting GAMM records

― dmr, Thursday, 29 March 2007 21:39 (seventeen years ago) link

ahh what do i know, those are prolly peak-time records at Nublu or whatever

I'm just not as into it as other stuff

Michael F Gill on Thursday, March 29, 2007 9:49 AM (1 hour ago)

Yeah, but some have new remixes from people like Spun, Brennan Green, Ray Mang Etc. I really like the 33 1/3 Queen release.

The last few Rong releases have gone into some really different territory, like soul/hip hop/downtempo/80's electro sounding stuff. Also, the label art is getting waaaaaaay more hott:

!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like a few of the Gamm releases I've heard. The Tangoterje/Michael Jackson one kind of fits into the disco edit/nu disco/beardo sound, but most of that CD doesn't. dmr is right, its mostly jazzy broken beat cocktail music, but if I have to listen to jazzy broken beat stuff, Gamm is quality. For being grey-erea unnoficcial edits/remixes, they sound great. I think there was a D'Angelo one I really liked, too. But again, not really beardo/nu-disco; maybe in a Henrik Swartz set.

The 2nd newest Gamm release, Beatconductor (aka Beatfanatic aka Discoconductor aka Jazzconductor) "Balearic Boogie" remix of Vengalis' "Let It Happen" comes close. It sounds great on a big system. I've been playing it a lot lately. But again, it kind of falls into that area where you could be listening to 90's big beat/ Zero 7.
