Dark techno and dubstep from the doppelganger:

Doppelganger said:
I can't do this beat-matching lark: skillfully coaxing all the of disparate parts into a seamless whole, all fecund and newborn and shiny. Instead, I look for the unassuming, quietly quivering bits, that will juxtapose without undue complaint. A quick snip and I offer the bloodied stump of one part up to the gaping wound of another in the hope that the host body won't reject it and my creation may walk blinking into the sunlight. All done with audacity.... audacity indeed... and thus I thought let it be so for the blogpost.... a dozen separate parts....

1. 00.01 The Shroud - Breakage
2. 02.30 Kemancheh - Moving Ninja
3. 05.01 Crosswaves - Duke Spook
4. 08.15 Nospheratu (Echospace Reduction) - Pulshar
5. 16.15 Handwerk1A - Add Noise
6. 23.30 Steingarten (Shackleton mix) - Pole
7. 29.30 Panoramix - Laurent Garnier
8. 33.01 Uprise - Djunya
9. 39.20 Cokernut - Patchwerk Man
10. 44.01 Gone To The Dogs - Claro Intelecto
11. 46.45 Tense Past - Gatekeeper
12. 49.49 You Will Become Like Us..

:) Last of the new ones...

Blogariddims 47/Ontological Hysteria

ont5.jpg


All about the atmos with this one. It looks like it shouldn't work - but it does, and very nicely too.

Kid Shirt said:
This mix is a deliberately genreclectic collection, ie it doesn’t plough any particular musical furrow. Instead, the tunes are linked around a vague theme of, erm, Ontological Hysteria – in that they all display some sense of impending pandemonium, either real or imagined…all the artists or songs here reveal some level of inner tension that manifests itself in the form of all sorts of batty symptoms from low-level teeth-grinding to full-on howling-at-the-moon midnight bareneck nekkid dancing. Songs on the Edge of a Nervous Breakdown, basically.

1. Goblin - L alba Dei Morti Viventi
2. Goblin - Zombi
3. Amon Duul II - Dem Guten, Schonen, Wahren
4. The Doctors of Madness - I Think We re Alone
5. Ultravox! - Young Savage
6. Mick Ronson - Hey, Ma, Get Papa
7. Ennio Morricone - Danse Nuptiale
8. Ilhan Mimaroglu - Agony
9. Kurt Weisman - Happy Mouse Blues
10. Os Mutantes - Nao Va Se Perder Por Ai
11. Pasquale and The Lunar-Tics - Moon Madness
12. The Scouts - Mr. Custer Stomp
13. Tin Huey - Chinese Circus
14. Pere Ubu - Non-Alignment Pact
15. The Residents - Picnic Boy
16. Steeleye Span - New York Girls
17. Leo Sayer - The Show Must Go On
18. Aphrodites Child - Break

sorry i only just saw this... yeah the copper cat tune is amazing, here's what i wrote when someone asked about it on the heatwave blog

That particular tune Tings Tuff is from 2000, and given it sounds like his voice hadn’t broken yet I guess he was about 13 or something at the time? He’s the son of Richie Stephens, the singer and producer who also runs the Pot Of Gold label that released Tings Tuff.

The only other Copper Cat tune I’ve ever come across came out in 2002/03, also on Pot Of Gold. I can’t remember the same, but the rhythm track was called Judgement and sounded a bit like a cross between the Stalag and Hot Milk riddims.

Since 2003/04 he hasn’t released anything as far as I’m aware, which is a shame, as both of those tunes were pretty cool - Tings Tuff especially.

Only just clocked your response! Thanks.

I did wonder at one point if it was a female MC, could almost be...

Definitely look out for other things from him.

Nobody has done a hiphop yet have they?

Episode 5 maybe? Not really though, theres not gonna be one now either. I had a hip hop episode lined up last year from a brilliant DJ - would've been really special, but it fell through...

As John mentioned, 48 is now out and about:

Blogariddims 48/Jazz from Woebot

woebot_jazz_sleeves_edited.jpg


No mixing or faffing about with this one. Just 10 sublime jazz tunes.

Woebot said:
Shunted off the stage and smoking in the alley. For a while Jazz had something like an Embassy but then its proponents drifted on to Reggae and Brazilian music. Now no-one (apart from you dear listener) gives a shit about it:

1. Yuseef Lateef: Plum Blossom
2. Andrew Hill: Illusion
3. Gil Evans: The Barbara Song
4. Marion Brown: Bismillah Raxmani Rahim
5. Don Cherry: Brown Rice
6. Mahavishnu Orchestra: You Know You Know
7. Roy Ayers: We Live In Brooklyn
8. William Fischer: Circles
9. Weather Report: Non-Stop Home
10. Billy Cobham: Stratus

personally, I see dubstep as part of the rich tradition of Electronica and 140bpm UK dance music, not a direct ancestor, but rather as a scene that draws on the same foundations… What we’re trying to do here is to take music from the fringes of the scene, tunes that have drawn on influences outside of the traditional dubstep milieu that share that same deep vibe which made Electronica from the mid 90’s so special - to borrow a term from Rephlex: ‘Braindance’. Music aimed at the head (and heart) as much as the feet.

On the d/l.

Is 50 really the last one ? Will they be left on the server as i still have some to d/l ?

Out to all involved in this btw.

Fraid so. Ive also instructed the ISP to destroy the server drives and asked all contributors to delete all references to the series from their blogs once the last episode goes up. ;)

why's that? just curious...these mixes could be educational/enjoyable for those who come to the music in months or years to come.

great stuff either way, thanks for doing it.

Yeah sorry - that was one of my usual sad attempts at humour.

The cast will be staying online for the foreseeable future. Indexed from the blogariddims 40 post on weareie.

your joke injected a dose of panic in me. i've since spent considerable time last sunday dl'ing (what should hopefully amount to) all 48 mixes thinking i may not get the chance in the foreseeable future. i'm late as usual.
