    Shizuo

    i was listening to deadly buda's 'universal dynamo' mix cd the other day (which is a fine mix of hard acid, breaks, and noisecore). shizuo's 'sweat' is on there, lodged between two heavy, gabbery hip hop tracks. 'have you ever been kissed by a girl like this?' ---- BOOOM it made my day ;)

    Any Wesley Willis afficionados in here?

    i think there's something exploitative and patronizing in most people's appreciation of him. in general it creeps me out. it was sad when he passed away, tho. apparently he was really something special to see perform live.

    Shizuo

    the last stuff i remember from christoph de babalon was a so-so 12" on the drop bass network sublabel ghetto safari, and a good split 12" w/ kid 606 on fat cat.... some more material of his would be much appreciated. it's a shame so many of the dhr camp stopped producing. all the early stuff is...

    Ariel Pink

    the video snippets on the paw tracks website are pretty good... funny... seems like it'd probably make more sense in the setting of an album..

    who are wiley's equivalents on the hardcore 'nuum?

    grime's is hardly my field of expertise, but a few possible corellations (maybe not really w/in the hardcore continuum) - dj assault for ghetto tek pretty tony for early miami bass/freestyle dj marlboro for baile funk maybe praga khan for new beat? i think region-specific dance scenes are...

    M.I.A. vs. Mario Brothers

    kernkraft 400 by zombie nation is the track that appropriates the melody from 'lazy jones'. 8 bit construction set 12" on beige records monotrona's 'tekgul' (i think) samples the 'sanxion' theme. i've got an appallingly bad mid 80's hip hop 12" somewhere called "do the mario" that samples the...

    New Post-Punk Outweighs Old

    i'm a big fan of the vanishing. gothy post punk on gsl... loads of fun live (unlike the fucking rapture) the dfa slant on things in general is a little too tongue-in-cheek for my liking. 'casual friday' is killer, tho.

    The Other Hardcore?

    berzerker is big on the speedcore/metal crossover scene. did that speedcore anthem that sampled the 'my love for you is like a truck BERZERKER' bit from clerks. i think he had a release on earache, maybe??? most of the rest of the aussie hardcore scene is more interested in hip hop, dnb, old...

    The Other Hardcore?

    ha! that sounds great! regarding the weird french stuff: http://c8.com/c8/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4143 so i guess stuff in that vein is definitely still hapening. i, too, would love to hear more regarding the current teknival scene. anyone w/ any info?

    The Other Hardcore?

    i i have wtcxtc on mp3 somewhere...it's good, yeah, but i prefer the older stuff, i think... i checked over at www.c8.com for the night on earth mp3's....giving no 2 a listen right now... it's great! maybe not quite as head-scratchingly brilliant as the early cavage stuff, imo, but way better...

    Have you ever heard something so good it made you cry?

    there's quite a few tearjerkers in the c64 musical world. 8-bit sounds can carry alot of emotional weight...the nostalgia factor... martin galway's 'parallax' theme can get pretty emotional, too....

    The Other Hardcore?

    oh, i wouldn't want to over look eradicator! 'fucking bitch called walker' ;) i missed the recent mouse record. the last one i picked up was on reverse, and it came out maybe 01/02... i agree, poka is the superior producer.... it's shocking they aren't better known or more respected. is...

    The Other Hardcore?

    it's good to hear that there are still factions producing that kind of music. doormouse, especially, appears to have achieved a modest amount of fame and respect - which he certainly always deserved. i think its sort of a shame that the scene so decidedly cross-bred with the idm/noise scene, tho...

    The Other Hardcore?

    fischkopf is indeed a fabulous label! amiga shock force, burning lazy persons, taciturne - they're all brilliant. don't overlook stella michelson's work, either (poka's sister). she recorded as auto-psy and mouse, and also released a few records on fischkopf (as wel as on anticore, reverse, and...

    Have you ever heard something so good it made you cry?

    rob hubbard's theme to the c64 game 'crazy comets' almost brings me to tears every time i hear it. ....dont' ask.

    The Other Hardcore?

    the ambush/praxis contingent is something of a separate, but affiliated branch, imo. some of the first real speedcore/deathcore releases are arguably the disciples of belial records on praxis (circa 94/95).... praxis didn't really stick with that sound obviously (and fortunately)... and some of...

    bleep 'n' bass -- an anachronistic term?

    don't mean to be too nitpicky here, but wasn't acardipane releasing through pcp in 90? and force inc. was putting out stuff by thomas heckmann, ian pooley, etc in 91... and tresor was around in 90/91 (right?). not sure how this stuff was distributed back then, but its existence is indicative of...
