Yeah Milton Keynes was a hub of hardcore activity back then. Well, has been
ever since really, for all the genres it spawned. We had the hardcore Mecca
that was the Sanctuary (massive venue, recently levelled by the bulldozers,
for better or worse), bringing kids from far and wide to go loony all night
long!
Happy Hardcore was a sound you'd hear all around, from market stalls,
neighbours' bedrooms, to souped up Novas prowling the highways and byways
of 'the city' (ha!). I just assumed though that this was the same sound
pumping out everywhere, up and down the country. Well it was wasn't it?
(sorry, can't supply any track names or artists, as I successfully
developed a finely tuned filter for shutting it out!)

 Dan Butler and Gary will tell you - where I was living at the time, it
was
 slap bang in the middle of all this, and it was far far larger than any
 musical sub genre you get today. i.e. 'the garage' thing or whatever.

Hey, the Passions I'm In Love With A German Film Star!
Blimey, that takes me back to being a kid with my pocket money,
up Woolworths, debating which one of the top 40 7 singles I was
going to buy. I passed on it at the time.
But Ahh, the beauty of Soulseek!...

cheers,

Phew - and I thought it was just me that had no grasp of names and labels!
I'll tell you where it's at in my collection, know the sleeve design, know
how it sounds, but names?...
I try and pay attention but just don't remember them.

Non-trainspotters unite!

I'm sorry, what did you say your name was again?... (actually I'm much
better with people's names. He says, ha!)

Oh wait, it's James Stinson...  okay I didn't know that Clarence G
pseudonym.
I don't even read what it says on my records anymore.  I just know them by
the colors and pictures mostly.
Like, I know I have a green Drexciya record.  And a blue one.  And a
couple others, they are in that one crate, hopefully, right next to the
stack of books.  A little to the left...  I'm sort of the opposite of a
trainspotter!

I agree that D.E.C. really hit the mark with the ambient stuff, but I'd go
for the first album
Soundtrack (313) (appropriately) as the real deal. Most people probably
will know it
already, but for sheer beauty and understated class it's hard to beat.

Someone else said Kao-tic Harmony. Yeah well, that intro - wow!
Pretty much impossible not to love.


cheers,

Dan

hi folks.  just curious about which detroit-produced ambient trax
you would
consider your favorites.  right now I'm hooked on gathering
light, by
detroit escalator company.  that track just pulls me out of
whatever I'm
doing.

Instant hard-on while hugging someone?
Could be construed as being overly friendly!
