dj glitchform - You Got Coco on your nose in Haifa at the same time that yer mum got dumped in Tenerife

God damn this "Planet Of Love Part II" tune... forget how much I love some piping hot acid techno, especially with a nice little pitch bump. The South 2nd one too, this Structure label looks like it has some gems

here's (also) something for you, I think the acid is a bit too trancey for me but I like the hoover melodies in this. so it's a case of not really liking it enough to play it out. I suppose because it was made by a happy hardcore producer.


It's a real marmite tune. I wouldn't mind if someone else played it, but for me it doesn't seem to completely pass the mustard. Let me know if you feel the same

feel a bit queasy and sick posting that tune lol.

 

[dilbert1]

Yeah, it's definitely beyond fucked.
appreciate you putting it up though - thanks!

Yeah I had it unlisted and with the question mark just for you guys to hear!

 

[dilbert1]

Yeah that one’s too boneheaded for me third lol

I don't mind the boneheadedness of it, it definitely has a lot of rave DNA. it's just anti-sleaze, and when it comes to four-to-the-floor at that sort of tempo I like things to be gritty.



Similar tempo, but an all time favourite.

@blissblogger prefers fatboy slim to this, which makes me think he has/had the hots for Zoe Ball, but anyway...

Nah i guess that is more what im getting at. Tunes covered in electrified razorwire and dirty motor oil, as opposed to hand sanitizer and candy-scented lube.

In the context of this mix and his more demented side, I've been thinking about stuff like his Nitrate project on Labworks.

that was a label set up by the air liquide/cologne acid crew. they did everything from weird ambient trance-not-trance to breakbeat acid monsters. even Biochip C/Speed Freak was affiliated with them for a while. E-de cologne/patric Cattani fell out with them because he thought they were too poppist or whatever but I kind of think that's a aesthetic dead end. there has always been good pop and shit pop, well maybe in 2024 all non-rnb/non-hip hop pop is shit, I don't know, I don't particularly care.

just remembered this diss track Catani did


perhaps one for @dilbert1 from that album


although they might like this track from a previous Eradicator 12 more:


of course I gotta mention Catani's mighty Test Tube Kid alias on Praxis (and one of his best):

@Corpsey listen to this to cure yourself from craneritis.

i never heard that, it's great

(I would venture that - in a sort of funny way, Fatboy Slim / Big Beat are about a similar sort of mind-evacuating relentlessness).

Actually, I'm in the miniscule minority of British-born males completely immune to the bleached-blonde-with-roots-showing / Silk Cut voice thing.

Freddie Fresh made some money out of it so I can't knock him for doing that. Still hate the rockafeller skank song though.

you won't believe it, but I heard a 90s dnb version the other month.

Sounds more like decadent jeep music than the original.

Don't think you can polllish the rockafeller turd though. Still gotta give mulder some credit for trying.

what I resent so much about big beat is its dystopian aesthetic liberalism. one can criticise, say, deep house or detroit techno for structural conservatism, (aesthetic conservatism in music isn't always a bad thing much less a negative) but at least they have a futurist/utopian aspect. with big beat it's like finally we can go back to rock and roll! People like Beltram definitely didn't want to go back to rock, even if they borrowed heavily from the downtuned amplification of metal.
