    RIP Patrick Adams

    my favorite of his early disco soul tunes, I think

    RIP Patrick Adams

    another stone cold classic, massive Garage tune

    RIP Patrick Adams

    stone cold classic, on the short list of post-disco tunes pointing to house *accidentally put up the Phreek version (which is good) first, but this is the true killer

    RIP Patrick Adams

    the original sleaze insect theme tune, before Bumblebee post-Bernie Worrell et al swooning seasick synths instead of swelling strings, a similar but more sensuous vibe

    RIP Patrick Adams

    (somehow) obscure, impossibly good b-side off one of the first Prelude 12"s early inception of the laidback Adams sound (which I'd call his trademark, tho he did uptempo bangers aplenty as well) endless loop of swelling strings, with a ripping guitar solo toward the end just for kicks

    RIP Patrick Adams

    probably the single greatest disco producer of them all

    Choon of the Day, redux

    this is my tune of day. more in the slow dance music lane. i.e. you'd probably call this more "left-field // synthpop" in Discogs terms but you could play it in a cosmic Balearic meets Paradise Garage type set or as a comment says, "New Wave dub". like a record Holger Czukay and Jah Wobble...

    Choon of the Day, redux

    that vibe also reminds me of that Radio Soulwax mix where they took early 90s Belgian etc proto-gabber and slowed it back down to ~115 bpm and improved it all by about 1000%

    Choon of the Day, redux

    yeah that's a killer puts me in mind of, same flip R+B => melancholic slow electro

    for the record, there were absolutely Bulls fans like this in the 90s - I grew up a Bulls fan during that era and I remember them well like it wasn't enough to have the greatest player ever and the best team and the best coach and 6 titles and all the rest they were adamant that you admit BJ...

    that take will live forever in infamy I just found out about the Christian Wood trade btw - I like that for yall a lot I see what you were saying above a bit more, I think that does a lot to put Mavs at the head of the 2nd-tier West teams probably one more two-way wing piece away from being a...

    like it's not enough to win everything and have the best shooter of all time and the best post-00s enduring championship core and a solid chance to win another title or two AND a bunch of young talent - which may or may not pan it, but is legit talent - and an owner willing to dispense largess...

    who's throwing elbows - I just don't buy into homer takes my harshest criticism of the Ws has been that they're not clearly the 3rd-best team of all time to me, yet. not exactly a savage rebuke. stuff like arbitrarily saying guys are All-Defense - a very small and elite grouping - is a...

    buddy I never disputed yr preseason claims, which I know cos 1) I didn't even know you were a Ws fan til like two weeks ago 2) I wouldn't have really disagreed with them. I would've said they were made through the lens of homer optimism - I needed to see how Klay came back from that very long...

    I don't disagree that their half-court offense needs to improve, and Ja isn't really that kind of point guard. they need more shooting, etc. I just think their arc is trending up vs other 2nd tier West teams their core is still really young. is it a guarantee they'll improve? ofc not. but...
