The hi hats sound a lot like an oooh-ahhh synth. Amazing. For 80s stuff, I like a lot the drum breaks part of New Order's Bizarre Love Triangle (Substance mix). Anyone knows who remixed it?

I think that Violator is a masterpiece. The best album from DM, in my opinion. It has a very Kraftwerk-like sound, especially Policy of Truth and the final sequence of Personal Jesus. And the sound engeneering on that album is amazing, for the ones who dig such thing. The bass drums had a unique analog texture, but yet sounds a lot like our well known TR-808. The bass lines and synth arrangements are very analog too.

I love the way PJ is not the straight foward 4/4 beat but a triplet 4 divided by 6 one. I have this Razormaid Remix that has the Kraftwerk-like arrangement of the final sequence in the original version, all over the entire remix. I bet you will like it.

This post is a bit old, but... I've always thought that the intro of a track in Red Planet 6 (I don't remember which one) reminded me so much of the Perfect Kiss remixed version that appears on Substance.

Re: (313) How about Depeche Mode? was: new order.
Hallo! This whole new order thread reminded me of something I once read in the FAQ section of the 313 mailing list at Hyperreal: The MI, through Derrick, brought a European vibe to our city, something that there never was before. Before, we were just a bunch of middle-class black kids who read The Face and GQ and Melody Maker and dreamt about what London or New York would be like; now ABC and Depeche Mode came to the MI in its heyday to witness the relentless Mayday at work, and to hang out with us. Real Brits ! Real accents ! In our club ! So, the question is: Depeche Mode and Detroit techno has something to do? We've read a lot of comments about New Order already. And how 'bout DM? I'm very curious to know what you guys think about that. []s 2/0 Maarten Baute wrote: Hi, this question was probably asked a couple of times allready on this list... well... then once more. Can someone please tell me how important new order was for the development of techno? What do the detroit guys think of new order? how did it influence what they were doing?

Re: (313) electronic
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: why does everyone think that the first electronic album was severely underrated ? getting away with it was a hit wasn't it ? i seem to remember the album got a fair bit of attention when it was released. it is very good anyway - 'try all you want' is wonderful, lovely synths, beautiful 909 hi hat programming :^) The 808 State remix for Disappointed is very interesting as well. It has the Neil Tennant classic voice and melody mixed with the early 90's drum machine and bass lines from 808 hits like Pacific 202. I've always have my Electronic album in vinyl, and this week I've noticed that in the CD version it has an extra track: Gangster. I've already listened to the Gangster (FBI Remix), which appears as a B-Side on the Disappointed single: lots of orchestra hits, sound a little bit like Tighten Up. But how it sounds the original version. Is it nice?

Re: (313) electro house is taking over (maybe not just in OZ)
I couldn't help overreading this thread. :) I'm a music producer and my project, which is called Two divided by zero, is somewhat about this electro-house thread. It mixes up electro, techno and a lot of 80's electronic pop stuff. I sincerely would like to know what you guys would think about it.
