there is a stretch of like 4 or 5 tunes on Detrevolution which are 150bpm-ish killer booty type stuff, as Gavin points out, gender/sexuality norms-subverting vocals, pure vibes, amazing sense of humour. this is sick too bit of a tangent but on a related note i dunno if you know about it but...

also @ sodiumnightlife, not juke but if you haven't checked him i really recommend you checking Aaron Carl - the guy is straight brilliant, haven't heard the new one yet (just found out about it today! very exciting) but i love Detrevolution and loads of his singles. he ranges all the way from...

i definitely feel a lot of what you are saying, and half (maybe more than half!) tends towards a lot the perspectives in that post. but i can’t help but feel that prescriptive rules about how sounds should fit in relation to one another surely can’t be good for dance music’s potential. for me...

exactly... i guess i am just unhappy that there is what seems to me to be such a conservative assumption sitting behind the language which is common in dance music. edit hadnt seen Blackdown's post yet

this i agree with definitely. i don't even think that binary is appropriate... skilled production can give rise to amazing textural ideas etc to think out loud though, for a while i have found myself almost taking issue with mixdown value being related in these terms... i am maybe being a bit...

yeh Juke Trax Online has some amazing stuff, as doom says loads of throwaway but some ridiculous music in there don't really know about mixes, but imeem is a great place to check out unreleased stuff... i have some great profile addresses saved somewhere but can't find them right now, i'll try...

thanks

really really enjoyed that, many thanks for the transcript what exactly happened on the Kiss show?

thanks for the tip! more or less all sold out now though :/ i hate it when record shops show you out of stock items, such a tease!

at the risk of seeming like im talking to myself i've been thinking about this on the way home and think too general a claim, and ignores loads of really important recent developments... BBK, Trim/Circle, Young Dot and the re-orientation around producers seeming significant counter-arguments...

yeh things go how they go, it will just be interesting to see how it plays out, cos the shift which is taking place is drastic, and has apparently coincided with a mass influx of new eyes and ears, mostly quite detached from the scene as it has developed thus far (myself very much included)...

it almost already happened with that whole Circle wonky thing! its alarming how quickly the thing is shifting now. although on the most part the music suits me better, i wonder what will happen, what this sudden influx of new expectations and pressures will do it will be interesting to see...

yeh they are doing some sick work now, so many good tunes up there, more added every other day or something! feeling Mini Kingz - Drum Ring 7 a very very great deal, hadn't heard that before

:) (i think!)

lessons in the right kinds of condescension and superiority complexes! dissensus gets better every day

about to drop!

that's interesting. that might make more sense, acquiescence rather than positive pursuit on the part of Kode 9. to clarify i hope it doesn't seem like i'm being disrespectful, it is perhaps not my place to speculate on his intentions. i am just intrigued (because i place such high value on...

yeh that is good but i guess i just tie a lot of stuff to my (uninformed) understanding of what Kode 9 is about, from his writing and such, and i can't help be surprised also looking at it, happy is the wrong word. ambivalent is better

i am in a slightly conflicted way quite happy about this feel dark cos if he or hyperdub really wanted it then it is a shame (although i still dont really understand). it is a shame though that they wont see the extra funds which it would bring to allow them to pursue their obviously...

nice one man, thanks feeling some of the tracks on this - http://www.uptownrecords.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=3322, the Pyper track in particular, him and his associates seem to be doing some sick stuff from what i can tell from a bit of myspace clicking
