yes Tristan superb night wasn't it! Ade had Pharoah Sanders' beautiful 'Harvest Time' on as we walked in already the pilgrimage that is seeing Theo at Plastics on a Sunday night had begun not sure about the long one you mention (?), but i think probably my favorite of the night might have to be his 15 minute opener, no doubt called 'going downstairs', a loping, chugging, head nodding sing-along gem of a cut
the james brown edits were particularly impressive and an equing feast marcus mixx psychousic sounded even better than when i played it on saturday :-p & he played quite a few off the new lp: 'second chances', the marvin cut up 'the rink', 'galactic traffic' and the already known sick 'synthetic flemm' samples up here: http://music.rushhour.nl/store_detailed.php?item=38806 plenty more unidentified tracks too though. donald byrd's lansanna's preistess a highlight! shame on you for not 'liking disco' before! but then in Theo's own words, a good dj can change your DNA ; ) On 2/19/07, Tristan Watkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
It's been a long time since I've been really impressed by a DJ set and even longer since I last felt like 80+% of what a DJ played was right and good. Tonight Theo Parrish hit about 95+% correctness and dropped so many of his new tunes from CDR and so many amazing edits of the rest of his selection that I don't know how anyone could go back to just playing records. Seriously sickening stuff. The new (presumably) Sound Signature stuff is going to be unstoppable. There was one 25 minute long track that took 15 minutes to transform into acid. It was so mental when it did. I'm usually the last person to shower Theo Parrish with compliments since I figure nothing he can do will compare to the set he played at the first DEMF which transformed my taste to the extent that I started liking disco, but this exceeded that. Seriously proper stuff. I hope the rest of 2007 follows suit. Tristan ======= http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]
