alex is always askin for new vinyl...well I got some for you mate! ;) Dan Curtin "Dead of Night vol. 2" Native A return to the Dan Curtin releases we love. This one has a POFF feel along with his classic META sound as well. It includes a rabblerouser remix off the cut he did on the previous Native Sampler comp. the big dancefloor cut is "In and out of Space" dope use of samples cutup and with a deep groove.
M>O>S "Goddess/Razor" MOS This man's work is just bliss...Aroy Dee as he goes by just drops deep record after deep record. I like this one as much as the NWAQ record and it gives me a feeling I used to have when I heard Transmat records for the first time. other choice records in the last few weeks: Domu & Volcov on Residual UNAI 12" on Forcetracks (don't usually go for this stuff but this guy does it well) John Tejada "Toiling of Idle Hands" LP on Immigrant (old stuff from John but I kinda dig it) Recloose 12" on Rush Hour Kemetic Just 12" on Rush Hour can't wait to hear the new stuff on Headspace. reviews soon. And now for the review of the down low party in Dallas. JT and I had an excellent time with Antal & Christiaan of Rush Hour this past wknd. The party went off well and we pulled it off Mancuso stylo! The venue was an old cathedral renovated into a 3 story loft. Things like this don't happen in Dallas anymore so we had to do it very low-key promoting the event word of mouth since the city shuts down everything at 2am and if you want to go late till 4, you have to have a late night permit. We wanted to get out of the bar/club environment and go back to a vibe of old times. party started around 8pm with local djs of the MVM Records camp and then a classics set by Luke Sardello of Icon. next up was Rick Simpson of dL rockin us with an electro and classic techno/house set everything from Anthony Rother to Adonis and beyond. Antal came on next and wowed us with a deep selection of UR's high tech jazz to $tinkworx's italo mix of "mischa"...the local folks were really getting down on the dancefloor at this point and then Brett Johnson came on next with his vocalist Dave Barker on the mic and guitar. He performed his first LIVE PA which he will be taking on the road soon to France and other places in Europe. It was a great set with Dave's vocals and guitar licks really highlighting the set along Brett's funky, weird housetronics. After BJ, Christiaan came on and killed it...droppin everything from Tres Demented to Liquid Liquid, YMO, Yello and 69 to White Stripes and Radiohead. An amazing eclectic set straight from gut. Ill76 and Maetrik closed out the night around 5am with sets of minimal german techno and classic Detroit stuff. All in all a great party with a magical vibe. wish you all could have been here to witness it. no attitude plenty of room to dance and just smiling faces all over the room. great night...hopefully we can do it again! minto __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
