    Minimal house anthems

    For Disco Only's appeal rests entirely on the Mercedes Sosa song. If you pay attention to the backing track, it's substandard. and the flip is dreck. when I have time (might be a couple of weeks) I'll make sure to send you a 40 minute cut of a set where he uses the sample over a couple of...

    Minimal house anthems

    Philip: it's not a soundboard mix cut out. Someone's been stealing unattended CD-Rs. I rarely get pissed off at leaks, but this one annoyed me. It's not intended for standalone listening, rather like Fizheuer. It's an excellent idea designed for his sets. Little things like this eat in to what I...

    Ø (MIKA VAINIO) / Pan Sonic

    well the original hardwax tipsheet blurb for it had "Mika Vainio prod" in it, but they've since removed that.

    Minimal house anthems

    see, i just finished my last university exam ever and i'd love to fly out to berlin next week for that playhouse weekender but i'm just too much of a pussy to risk it, especially since i can't find any other line up that weekend that particularly takes my fancy.

    yeah, I'd happily plan a holiday around a Berghain line up if it wasn't for this issue. no way am I risking that.

    Minimal house anthems

    yeah I meant Pressure in Glasgow is expensive. I don't think Fabric is too pricey at all when it's open until 9am with three rooms (although I never really pay). there won't be an afterparty in Glasgow involving Villalobos, I doubt there will be an organised afterparty at all. (Scottish...

    Minimal house anthems

    I've never been to Pressure, no, weirdly. the 3am thing puts me off but I can't really justify going down to London *again* (been to Fabric too many times in the past year and a half). VV, I wouldn't be surprised if they have an afters again. EDIT: oh yeah, the cost puts me off too!

    Minimal house anthems

    eh, I don't know if it's the main drug. never tried it, personally. it's apparently very popular, yes, but I'd be surprised if it beat out good old E overall. certainly lots of extremely intoxicated people at Fabric but it's hard to tell what they're on (and I doubt they're particularly purist...

    Minimal house anthems

    last time Villalobos played Fabric it was open until 2pm and I was there, predictably messy atmosphere. but it's not that out of place, the place is packed to the rafters with Euros to begin with, and the type of Londoners who habituate Villalobos nights take prodigious quantities of drugs...

    Woebot on funky house

    the implication of the quote I posted is that the "kids" listen to guitar music instead of 'microhouse' because the latter is all about taking photos of each other and networking. which plainly applies to your average shitty indie gig too.

    Woebot on funky house

    'microhouse' is the sherburne neologism yeah. i'd say it very specifically relates to Perlon, earlier Isolee, first Luomo LP etc. and most defnitely NOT most Kompakt, which I wouldn't even class as minimal at any point in its development (there are a few releases on there, sure, but on the...

    Woebot on funky house

    "that sleek Mittel-European noodling is boring, you can't imagine people losing control or getting sweaty can you, they might spill their Martinis, get a cocktail stick in their eyeball. They're all too busy networking and taking photos of one another. No wonder most kids want to listen to...

    Mr Fingers / Larry Heard

    the track that inspired this thread, I believe... and actually my favourite Heard ever! albeit largely due to the circumstances I first heard it in

    did he stretch out Mr White for 15 minutes again? when he did that at 8am in December (I'd never heard the tune before) it was one of my favourite musical moments ever. chemically enhanced.

    rinse fm playing minimal techno...

    and Luciano in Fabric is definitely fairly big room. a lot of the time he's not a 'minimal' DJ really... banger after banger after banger. amazing DJ, I think, great fun. you should check out a Villalobos set at Fabric if you want something deeper (don't necessarily judge him by that 2hrish mix...
