    Woebot on funky house

    I prefer it on Andre Galuzzi's Berghain 01 tbh (where it's trance! not fluffy trance but proper hard-edged relentless repetitive goodness), but the Loco Dice mix is certainly adequate, if a bit stiff.

    Ongoing 2007 Electronic releases

    are people (not just here) finding minimal house coming up short compared with minimal techno? it's all a bit of a big grey area but just a thought... there's polyrhythms galore in both if you look. I sympathise with not finding minimal across-the-board exciting, I think there's a fair bit of...

    DUBSTEP- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    compilation cd? well damn count me in as another non dj who needed that record! and I was hoping to get away with the cut from Cassy's mix CD at least but it didn't really work (too little and mixed into a very contrasting record) the b-sides rock, thankfully. I only very occasionally, and very...

    hadouken - 'real grindie'

    but it probably sounds great if you've ONLY JUST discovered music, the same music your friends all only just discovered, straight out of sixth-form and have yet to develop any discernment whatsoever mind! nah fuck it, it's still shit.

    hadouken - 'real grindie'

    that's a bold post considering the board you're making it on! :D as for this hadouken business... 100% proof uncontaminated by talent, soul, or creativity. Carter USM had energy, fuck it they were probably BETTER! A redefinition of terrible.

    DUBSTEP- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    I think I'd prefer more dubsteppers doing remixes of minimal artists than the other way round but I'm not sure why. Ricardo (& more) charts here: http://www.groove.de/djcharts.php?archiv=1&nat=nat Ellen Allien had Digital Mystikz "Stuck" in one of hers a while back.

    The best club in the world?

    You're not even particularly far on foot from Raumklang, or Cafe Du Visionaire (if it's open thru the winter, I suspect not) and Club 103 is next door to Watergate(!), I never got the chance to check it out personally, mixed reviews but good guests, not hard in Berlin admittedly but still...

    Minimal techno blowing up

    yeah, that's another thing I love about that Cassy mix (and wasn't expecting!) how it builds convincing bridges between the "minimal techno" that has been around for ages (not the really fast Sims stuff tho, it's more of a house mix) and the stuff which arguably hasn't i.e. Villalobos et al...

    Minimal techno blowing up

    In a nutshell, this is why I'm finding Cassy's "Panorama Bar 01" mix thrilling and vital at the moment, but the glossy and arguably overproduced likes of Booka Shade, Trentmoller, quite a hefty chunk of electro-house and quite a lot of basically-interchangeable-with deep house stuff... not so...

    new Booka Shade album

    If I could have been that ahem... blunt, I might not have snarfed up the ILM thread so much (I'll take the blame) :slanted: Is Superlongenevity 4 actually a decent listen un-mixed? I was a little put off by that. agree, but Wouldn't that imply he should be less accessible to people...

    Copping a whole schtick.

    Ride, Chapterhouse, Lush, Catherine Wheel, Curve (early) Boo Radleys, (early) Verve were more contemporaries surely? MBV might well have been first (although you could even say came out a scene influenced by JAMC, Galaxie 500 etc...) but 'copping a schtick' seems unfair. Unless... you're only...

    wire the band

    apparently it was their taking the piss out of what punk had become (marketed & commodified, far from dangerous) song. With that in mind, true or not, I find it pretty hilarious!

    DUBSTEP- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    Cassy's upcoming Panorama Bar mix opens with a Dubstep* track that was charted by Ricardo and closes with 2 Step! (thanks Tim F for the track ID) And well Skream did play there a little while back too, Zip has been playing it out too apparently. And having the Hard Wax gus enthusiastically on...

    good small labels?

    This - http://www.ghostly.com/1.0/artists/outputmessage/index.shtml outputmessage, mark? That's a very strange label for him to be releasing on... or perhaps it suggests an indipendent spirit? I'll admit I have skewed, possibly out of proportion feelings here. I genuinely loathed the Melodic...
