    Minimal house anthems

    that may prove to be the case, but surely it's the 'horn' meme more? i.e. fizheuer and (cringe) 'heater', with the source of fizheuer obv. not being latin. it was inevitable that a track like fizheuer would spawn myriad lesser imitations, that's certainly how i'd see the sis track. [obv. i'm not...

    Minimal house anthems

    definitely. and they have been for...well over a year i'd say. one of the most consistent labels around.

    Minimal house anthems

    well yeah sure, there's plenty of examples of 'minimal' - or stuff that's come out on labels associated with mnml - that isn't really minimal at all! the point surely is that 'minimal' or 'mnml' was/is a terribly imprecise and frequently misleading term...of course there's lots of dry boring...

    Minimal house anthems

    not even the koze, sorry! not normally a fan of aguayo either actually...christ i sound like i hate everything! DO like koze's remix of sascha funke on bpitch, DO like the brendon moeller remixes on applepips DO like the radio slave on r & s - obv those two don't exactly fall into the...

    Minimal house anthems

    there were plenty of people losing their shit to the vibes on saturday when it was played...so yeah, i'm not sure that helps us get any closer to what such imprecise terms might mean. interestingly, those adjectives - soul, groove - are exactly those of the lazy take on minimal which is...

    Minimal house anthems

    Sis - Trumpet serious anthem alert: obviously been doing the rounds in ibiza this summer. dorian paic played it last night at t bar and the whole place went absolutely nuts...yes you can see it as 'fizheuer-lite' (the first thing that crossed my mind when i heard it) and it'll probably sound...

    Shed

    picked up the vinyl when i was in hardwax last month, seemed to be out earlier over there. it's a good album, i suspect (and have heard) that the cd version is a more coherent listen, but there are some real standouts on the vinyl: that beats everything, estrange and flat axe are particular...

    Chicken in the UK

    this is a very good point. and of course the reasons for this are societal and systematic, i.e. the constant pressure to be seen to spend, to have what richer people have (whether or not you can afford it), to not look poor. the deeply unfashionable nature of thriftiness was something hugh f-w...

    Newish House/Techno LP's I should own

    Newish House/Techno LP's I should own

    having finally got the thomas melchior album i can confirm that it's a real winner - every track (except perhaps the slightly naff choral-tastic 'watersoul') is in the good-great category. particular faves so far: the uneasy euphoria of 'coming up' (made uneasy in part by the slightly...

    Newish House/Techno LP's I should own

    yeah i got mine from phonica. is it leaked then? that would explain all the rumours about it being a bootleg (which it isn't) or in some way not genuine. it is expensive, but it's nice having those tracks on vinyl, and the full versions of the tracks from the fabric mix are great, especially...

    Newish House/Techno LP's I should own

    yeah they're great. /slightly/ underwhelmed by the petre inspirescu maxi-ep, if only because it's not quite as perfect as 'de bou'...digitaline's 'honolulu', and the luciano rmx, are superb tho. on the album tip, i have to say i can't wait for the thomas melchior album - love his stuff anyway...

    Favourite jokes and one-liners.

    A girl asks her dad if she can borrow his car. "No," he says, "you're a crap driver and, frankly, I don't trust you with it." "Oh pleeeease dad, I'll do anything!" "Oh ok then, if you do me a special favour, you can borrow it." "Anything! Anything!" He makes his request and she promptly drops to...

    Anyone know of a good multi genre EDM internet radio station?

    fairy small-scale (and run by a mate of a mate) - Universal Vibes, based in Bethnal Green, do guest slots and are fairly eclectic. definitely dance-orientated, but not specific to one genre by any means. www.universalvibes.com

    http://www.phonicarecords.co.uk/detail.aspx?ID=21175 be quick... digitaline's (mini) album on cadenza (http://www.phonicarecords.co.uk/detail.aspx?ID=20280) is great as well - genuinely minimal too.
