ok what are people listening to at the moment?
the tracks keeping me from going mad at work this work are:
$tinkworx - Aedena - Delsin
Not a weak track on this EP. Fave of the whole thing is probs the title
track. Great electronic/italo style track in two flavours, original and
slightly tweked/roughed up M>O>S remix. The flip has Menowar and
Mnemosyne mining that characteristic warm $tinkworx vibe and the final
track No Love is a cut up style thing. Buy this 12 on sight!
Candi Staton - Bradock Mixes - Honest Jon's
Evidence is the track that stands out (well it's probs two but they
flow together). Nice slightly stomping electronic track which i guess
you could call house (is it just me or are words like
house/techno/electro/italo losing their meaning these days?) with a
loop of Candi's vocal ('Get up in the mornin time'). This thing will
sound devastating on a PA.
Lionel Hampton - Vibramatic (Joakim mix) - Crippled Dick Hot Wax
Worth listing for the name of the label alone :) the mighty Joakim at
the controls, making the track organic (beats) and electronic (the way
it's editted and sounds) at the same time. The flip is the 84 original
which is also great, funky with boogieness (a word?) in the way the
electronic bass is played, a brill 12. Great pressing too.
Detroit Grand Pubahs - Onion - Joakim Mix - PokerFlat
More in an electro vein than the usual Joakim stuff with that ace (well
if u like the style) Pubahs crazy vocal over the top. I like the waaay
you shaaake iiiiit.
