new spoek mix up not all african, natch, but quite great. http://sdotx.blogspot.com/2009/08/hivip-united-states-of-ayobaness-mix.html

i agree that Ram/Pearson productions have an aridity... and i can see how that would lend itself to what you describe above, but that was, nonetheless, quite the driveby. this thread hardly seems to be the appropriate place (then again 'poor feller already had to fend off Zomby comparisons...

in case you missed it, the Scratcha DVA and Deep Tecknologi set on the rinse podcast is heinous amounts of fire. should be heard before the link dies.

yea Swang is great, shame he had to replace the MJ sample for the album version he put out... i know the original track from Rapid Ric's Getcha Weight Up 2K5, which is a mixtape i return to pretty often. many classics from Killer Mike, Mannie Fresh, Magno, an' so on.

random older fave three six songs: Who Got Dem 9s Sippin' on some Syrup (obviously... maybe still their best?) Ghetto Chick I'm So Hi Tongue Ring Rainbow Colors Ridin' Spinners honestly, they are amazing for at least a few different reasons. just grab whatever.

yea, was meaning to ask if anyone had an idea how they were splitting this stuff up... we now have as tags for the podcasts, "House", "Funky", "Dubbage", "Funkstep", "Crack House"... ann' i see "Deep Tech" as a tag for the most recent Scratcha set (which is great, as per usual with him these...

it's getting to be a bit old now, but did everyone catch the most recent Brackles set in the rinse podcast? it took me a while to hear it because it took days to get the link to work for me, but it's a cracker.

vehement second for Jeff and Jane Hudson. they are great... Cat Scan, PCP, the weird Ipanema cover... at least a handful of classic tracks to their name. the flexi-pop comps are worth toiling through, even if a fair portion of the stuff does just flat out suck. don't have them at hand, but for...

well they do sound a lot like his kode9 tracks, that's for sure. and that puts them squarely in a place where very few other funky producers are treading (any?), which i am happy about. i've never thought of them as full on funky tracks, and don't have any problem with that. unless it's the...

imho politeness is being overused as a negative term just this second.

thanks for this. dj gregory is pretty greet.

can we have more here? 'been really digging the bits of Kerri Chandler (Ben seems to know all of his best tracks... i've sifted through a lot of others that i didn't like nearly as much), Dennis Ferrer, etc. that are creeping up in people's sets lately, so i think i am maybe interested to hear...

i think my favourite track at the moment is prolly an untitled one by Joe, believe it's coming out on Hotflush eventually? he's been as amazing as anyone this year, imo.

so is mr. Banton just in Napa for the summer then? it's been ages since any of his stuff has been up on the VUlive site.

thanks for the lil silva mix. having had the song pop up in two mixes in the last few pages of the thread, i'm going to take this time to restate how great i think Perempay's Teedra Moses mix is. by far my favourite production of his.

dunno who i would vote for. have spent many hours with wide swathes of both fellers' catalogues. i do not by any stretch of the imagination love what all or even most of what either of them has put out. their works are probably frustrating as often as they are enjoyable. that said, i don't think...

there was a nice writeup about them in the wire a while back... was trying to track down the article online, but no luck. http://www.thewire.co.uk/issues/269/ there seems to be some videos online of more conceptual based performance stuff tho. some of it is def. more in a post-punk vein but...

yea. did not realize this myself till i read this feature on he an' Pangaea in Fact the other day.

it's funny because i kind of think of a lot of the proper experimental originators as being 'post-industrial' and usually reserve the term industrial for a lot of the more generic materials that ensue... a lot of the key outfits like the aforementioned EN, TG, Coil, NWW, Current 93, etc. carry...

yeh i've dug this thread. i was into d&b (pretty much in isolation as none of my friends were into it, nor was i old enough to even go to clubs) in the late late 90s, early oughts... (garbage time is all i ever hear about said era here, but i'd still comp for some of the Marcus Intalex...
