no club or venue has a system that will allow the lsitener (outside of the 
lack of record noise) to differentiate between a 320k mp3 and a record.


if there is one, I'd like to go there and enjoy some 320k mp3s

(313) black murda discography

2005-06-24 Thread david smith
I found a self-titled LP from 1971 called Black Murda, an excellent 
funk-soul band from detroit.  As far as i know they are not on discogs, 
found a little bit on google, but no complete discography.  Are there 
any funk fans out there that can help me fill in the blanks?

No! An Axis thong ain't right at all!

 they had a whole heap of art stuff there that you couldn't buy. disk
 union basically stocks the same merchandise as the submerge store and I
 worked out it was cheaper to buy from submerge

 yeah record bag would be cute, maybe some badges. I draw the line at

I know, Howard was big here too (everywhere) - but was he recognised as much
more than a pop star with a haircut?
NME was dominated by jaded punk hacks who dismissed New Romanticism as not
cred enough - they preferred Julian Cope and Paul Weller etc. It's
worthwhile finding old copies and reading the reviews... for a laugh!
When I did the interview I was 'instructed' by the label via the manager not
to make fun of him - that tells you something. Hoping to get the article
posted v soon.

DJs for Eurythmics are mainly local - Askew are you still on the list, help
me here would you? I have seen Eurythmics tracks listed here and there, I
will have to recall.

I know one Melbourne DJ who plays Honkytonks is playing This City Never
Sleeps.


BTW I recently did an interview with Howard Jones! He is such a cat! It's
 a
real joy interviewing these 80s acts who are now being recognised

 Cyclone, Howard Jones was massive here! in the charts all the time etc, as
 a young (very) kid I had all his ahem cassettes. Can't really remember
 anything dead good he did though (?) anything that stood the test of time
 (?).
 hmm, might investigate, but it was all pretty poppy no? can't remember any
 leftfield kinda dubs or anything. maybe I'm wrong, will look. never bought
 the 12's at the time, perhaps theres some good instr. on the flips

 but, yeah, just wanted to mention he was never un-recognised!

 alex

 p.s. (I notice that Eurythmics are
 experiencing a revival among leftfield club DJs at the moment.)

 which djs and which tracks??!

From: Philip [EMAIL PROTECTED]

just got a copy of marcellus pittman's 'nyrobi knight' 12 ummm
is this
record meant to sound like this? track a2 cherry lee in
particular, I mean I
know some of these peeps like it dark  crazy but this is just
nuts. the
kick drum jumps all over the shop and I really can't tell if it's
a bad
pressing or if it's actually meant to sound like that.

anyhoo 'nyrobi knight' itself is an er interesting track and I
can see it
working set tho I doubt if you'd want to play it all the way
through, it's
just a bit too stop/start until about half way through. 

i didnt notice anything weird about the kicks on my copy. i do
love how dirty and nasty nyrobi knight and dirty are. its almost
similar to stuff ive been working on in level of grit. 

BTW, if youve never seen malik play records, you really should.
hes f*cking amazing. after seeing him a couple times this past
year at the festival and having had a mix CD of his for a while,
he's gotta be in my top 3 deejays of all time, right behind shake
and theo. 

also got jerry the cat statements ep on psychostasia, a1 is a lovely
percussive abstract groove

that one is nice. the jam ive rediscovered recently is that remix
on the juju and jordashe 12 on psychostasia. it sounds really hot
on a loud system and that sax bit is just stellar. its much more
dancefloor friendly than it sounds on a home system. 

the fxhe comp 1 12 has a cool omar-s track
that's an understated (disco?) loop with grinding fx  percussion
that
sounds a bit industrial almost, jus-ed's track 'am mix' reminds
me a little
of 2nd wave stuff like 'techno 2', it's very nice. 'moment' by
young seth is
nice but kinda ordinary  minimal - is that a Detroit escalator
co. sample
hmmm?

dont know if thats a DEC sample or not, but i thought that young
seth joint was the best one on there. very minimal and
understated, very reminiscient of just ask the lonely by omar-s
(which might actually be eclipsing recloose's dust as my
favorite track of the year). i do hope they keep releasing stuff
like malik's record and that comp, as much as i love omar-s its
always good to have some variety. especially with the super fast
release schedule they seem to be rocking these days. 

speaking of omar-s, that track on 007 is just bananas. again, it
sounds much better loud. its so much fun to mix in, those weird
percussion sounds seem to catch peoples ear and then the loop in
the background builds it up very nicely. super hot. i play
multiple fxhe records every time i deejay. theyre killing me right
now with the amount of goodness theyre putting out.

Interesting that - I knew of quite a few people who did it but didn't know
of they did.  For definite?  On all records or just a few?
Reason I think it interesting is how dope that stuff sounds coming straight
off Scion's laptops (and to a certain extent, though not quite as much, on
the CD of this) - something I'd always put down to it being straight high
quality digital direct to the system.
Wonder if they use the records digitised and it sounds so dynamic as they're
putting loads of effects on or if they have bits and pieces from earlier in
the process of the records creation?
Anyway they make the best argument for using Ableton I've heard!

I agree 100% with all you guys said about club/dj sound systems.
It is the glass window comparison...

But I almost always buy records because of the music, barely have
in mind the club/DJ tool concept, and 98% of the time I am listenin to
them in my home stereo. So it is important they sound good there.

 
 i also think that people's ears are trained to hear vinyl specific 
 mastering. if someone plays something digitally that's been mastered

Yes, that was my question. You still need a good source (vinyl) to
digitalise from, and in my experience 16/44 does result in considerable
degradation of the sound (comparing to the vinyl source), specially for
less processed funk, jazz, etc...

yeah it's the compression people put on CDs that amazes me. if you pull 
up the waveform of a track off a cd it's almost always 'crushed' with 
some sort of compression.


the 16/44 thing is nothing compared to that imo.

Digitalised music is always an approximation, so I prefer to stick

In a decent sound system anyone can tell the difference when
comparing the real thing with .wav, .mp3 or any other standard
digital format...


In 1991, I was skeptical about this newfangled Compact Disc thing.

(Not to namedrop, but ...) Skinny Puppy's cEvin Key was over my house
one day, and we talked about it.  I gave him my Old Skool arguments,
come on, how could this be as warm as vinyl, it's sampled so it's an
approximation, blah blah ...

He looked me square in the eye and said, Greg, look.  We make music, so
we ought to know how it's supposed to sound, right?  Mmmmhmmn.
Well, our CDs sound like our music sounded to us in the studio.  Vinyl
records don't.

I bought a portable DiscMan-type CD player the next day and, for all

(313) b-boy/girl groups (electrofunk)

2005-06-24 Thread Michael . Elliot-Knight




After looking at David Elsewhere Bernal's videos (including the VW GTI
commercial) I want to watch some more

I used to have a bunch of sites bookmarked that had b-boy/girl teams -
mostly pop  lock stuff
seems like these websites have a short lifespan as they've all gone 404

I know there's a lot of dance groups out on the West Coast -
I can't recall the exact name but there was one group of about five or six
guys called Demon Eyez or something
they had a few changes in their name over the year but I do recall one clip
of them wearing those silver firefighter outfits and doing a routine to a
wicked electro track
They would always wear masks - one of the coolest groups I've seen in the
last five or so years

So, if you're holding any links to any electro funk/hip-hop dance groups
please pass them on

I'm interested in seeing people spin on their heads and do helicopters for
hours on end
Looking for well thought out routines where they're actually dancing to the
music and not just showing off their muscle moves

if they're dancing to electro all the better

i think the point is beyond the format -- it's just whole new way of 
presenting musik and reaching the audience. MP3 and other digital musik 
formats are not really young anymore, it's just that now they've evolved 
in something really useful, bearing acceptable quality, modern 
distribution network and decent replay/mixing tools.


i'm still buying CD and vinyl releases but i'm really glad for the new 
digital distribution trend anyhow, even if it's killing traditional 
means of music industry. the world is forever changing but everyone is

Ah !

we definitely were not far from each other at sci-fi records as on the 
Thursday i spent a few minutes with Rachmad and Mills aswell, and on the 
saturday i was outside the shop catching Mills doing his showcase 
(hanging some redbull, believing it could save me from being tired hahha).


Day event were really rocking, i see there were some nice music played 
at the night ones, thoughi avoided them coz its just full of too many

Yes, recently playing at a little house party, what I noticed was that 
playing direct off my laptop has a different tone quality - basically, 
there are a lot more highs present on the laptop tracks than on the 
vinyl.  It easy easy enough to EQ the sound system a little so that the 
laptop sounds more in line with the vinyl playing previously, but if you 
switch straight out you will hear a definite difference, not really in 
resolution but all the highs can make the digital sound a little bright 
if the sound is tweaked specifically for vinyl.  Again though, twist a 
couple knobs and this can easily be corrected.

obviously.  if you're doing a CD and record, you have to master your tracks 
twice, because mastering to CD and vinyl are two vastly different things.  in 
this way, I prefer digital, because you're having to master your way around the 
limitations of the vinyl

Didn't mean to mislead. I'm down for the digi-distro for sure. The
advances made to facilitate this as it grows in influence will probably
facilitate the kinds of change I'm talking about (ie, bandwidth
expansion to accommodate more downloads will make it more viable to
disseminate larger files faster as well). So yeah, werd. I'm witchu on

 other digital musik formats are not really young anymore, 
 it's just that now they've evolved in something really 
 useful, bearing acceptable quality, modern distribution

(313) A reasonable compression rate?

2005-06-24 Thread Tristan Watkins
The storage requirements for 1000 records at 24 bit 96 KHz would be 
astronomical. IIRC, I mixed down a 6 minute track to 32 bit 96 KHz and it was 
over 300MB! If you actually decide to encode an average of 2 tracks/record that 
would require ~600GB. 1500 records and you're nearly at a terrabyte (don't even 
worry about albums for now). 

Even if you're thinking that hard disk space is cheap these days, the backup 
requirements are crazy. Plunking that on DVD's you've got an organisational 
nightmare, and if you're thinking of using a NAS, a terrabyte is bloody 
expensive. 

But hell, 32 bit 96 KHz is nothing. Why not go for one of those audiophile 
formats like Sony's 1 bit 2.1 MHz DVD audio format which is meant to replicate 
the stream of analogue audio more accurately than larger bit types? No clue 
what kind of file sizes you'll get with that, but I think it's similar to the 5 
channel 24 bit 96 KHz files from that other DVD audio format, which is large. 

Personally, I reckon 32 bit 256 Kbps mp3 is plenty good with today's 
compression formats. Has anyone actually ever noticed the difference at this 
bitrate? That's what I'm using anyway. Getting fanatical about any of these 
choices is a bit silly if you ask me, as five years from now there'll probably 
be a new format that poops all over the compession of today and we'll all be 
glad we kept the vinyls so that we can re-encode everything from the source in 
the new format. Maybe I'll be done with my current collection by then. ;)

@ Joe: I recorded a 6-hour mix to VHS once upon a time. Good for that 
uninterrupted feel. :)

i'm using lame LAME 3.90.3 for MP3 encoding using VBR [which in average 
turns out to be ~200kbps]. been mostly encoding seedee extracted WAVs as 
well as my own production and i can't tell much of a difference, maybe 
sounds a little more 'compact'. lame encoding presets are optimized and 
tweaked to reach good quality/size ratio, the only complaint might be it 
cuts highs in the name of 'no human is able to hear above 18khz' so you 
cant encode up to 22khz.


btw, the decoder is also important and there's still room to advance. 
i'm using Mad plug-in for Winamp

i guess some lossless format will take over sooner or later as bandwidth

don't those get compressed like the rest of DVD content usually does? I 
mean, Dolby AC-3 doesn't have noticeable glitches (usually) and that's 
compressed 5.1.


1 bit 2.1MHz is 15.2 Mbytes / minute per channel. I assume that's like a 
1-bit DAC.

32-bit (floats not ints, I presume) 96kHz is 22.5 Mbytes / minute per channel.
24-bit 96kHz is 16.9 Mbytes / minute per channel.
