It was just that bass-synth sound that everyone seemed to be using a couple of years ago...

I thought the 'classic grime' sound was just Fruity Loops all over!

My favourite string-thing recently has been Sebastien Tellier "Beyond All Strategies" - 6 or 7 minutes of epic orchestral build-up before the sweetest psyche-pop breakdown right at the end :o Anybody got any tips on Clare Fischer? He did the strings on 2 of my all time fave LPs - Rufus "Ask...

I think it's safe to assume that RZA has heard the Wiley album but I think it's also safe to assume that he clocked the sample-source too...

What about 'crump dancing'? I still can't decide whether this is real or some sort of Brass Eye spoof!

I wouldn't be at all surprised to see RZA sampling 8-bit computer games - haven't you heard the "Atari 2600" 7"?

The twin appeals of Nu Groove lie in the fact that A) almost every record on the label is either fantastic or at the very least amazingly weird and B) they're always about 2 quid! For years every time I've been suffering from 'I can't remember what I want to find' syndrome in second hand shops...

up up up down for me.

Peter Daou is on so many amazing Nu Groove records ( check out Kenny's Jazz on Powerhouse 2 ) I'm scared of finding out what he's doing now...!

He put out a record on Stones Throw a few months ago "Mary Had Brown Hair" which I really liked (but the video was scary!) - i'd love to check out the first album though... GOTTA KEEP DIGGIN'! :rolleyes: http://www.stonesthrow.com/garywilson/index.html I'll second the Laswell Bob Marley...

I'm a bit late on this, but I whole heartedly agree.

The album with the girl (wearing tights?! http://www.dustygroove.com/prip/5/9/360795i.htm) in the sea on the cover is "Love Peace & Poetry - African Psychedelic Music" on Normal Records http://www.normal-records.com/start.php. I've not really got into most of the garagey psyche on it but there...

Ive just been watching a cheerleading movie called Bring It On (well worth a trip to the video shop if you missed it!) which had the most insane ghettotech / miami bass / hardcore soundtrack in the dance competitions...! The guy's website is http://www.cheerleadingmusic.com and it's full of...

Gherkin stuff is buy on sight for me, but £25.00 cheap?!! http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?what=R&obid=37437 This is the one for me - one of the best house albums EVERRRRRRR!

If did come out on 12" actually, which led to year of shouting "A belly dahncer, a belly dahncer!" every time we got an order for it at work - isn't he Canadian btw?

They're not really my cup of tea but we do sell loads at the shop where I work. Stuff on the Fall Out label (garagey reworks of hip hop soul-type stuff) does really well as does anything by producers (very confusingly called) DFA!! PS Whaddya mean you don't like '03 Bonnie & Clyde?!! ;)...

Boredoms, Ghost and AMT have all been rockin the stereo full-time recently (listened to OOIOO Kila Kila Kila again today - fantastic!) but the best music outta Japan i've heard in the last 6 months is... http://www.ymck.net/e/sound.html - God i'm such a sucker for Nintendo-pop, especially with...

Just got to mention that the 'horns' section of "Cliff Dweller Society" on the "Gamera" 12" is my personal Tortoise highlight! They were more or less my favourite live band throughout the 90s even though they all look like grumpy buggers! In fact I was supposed to interview them on their...

I forgot to mention that I read Man In The High Castle too! I've also been reading an anthology with the beginning of a sequel too High Castle and a load of Exegesis entries. I hope i've not really got through all the best ones - I might have to re-read them!

The computer-fantasy Dread artwork walks the fine line between genius and utter prog ridiculousness for me! It's like the modern day equivalent of Roger Dean in many ways... It's always a joy when they've got a new record out! Ash
