 Oh yes! They're actually from Finland :) They've made couple of remixes
 and couple of their own productions aswell (afaik).

 I really like their remix of Jori Hulkkonen's All I see is shadows
 (http://www.discogs.com/release/140846) and in the same vein I like Acid

 Kings 1-2-3 Acid (Jori Hulkkonen Keys of Life Remix) 
 (http://www.sahkorecordings.com/life12in-11.php)

 You really have to understand a bit about Finnish culture in order to
 decipher the lyrics on the latter ;)

 There's a thing called Acid Kings which has a good take on the more
 classic Chicago style of Acid House- also check the Dirty Criminals 
 album on Giggilo too- a more modern rounded sound with contributions
 from Spanky- some pretty warped moments- good stuff though

(313) Funk vs. Mathew

2004-09-15 Thread z99



well, well, well, well..

workin thru the nite, i took off few hours spending time watching the
city waking up and _listening_ to musik instead of letting it play=)


..


i remember some peeps slagging off Soma-rec, well i came round to
listen to Funk D'Void's older dos and the new one: volume freak
once again and them good songs just broke my heart. so much of soul
and so much of blues! yet i'm for roughly half of each album, not
every song works for me. Funk's musik goes back to detroit roots but
it doesnt sound old - maybe not exactly futuristic but why should it -
its musik of today. although i dont dare to compare these two
albums in detail, there is no major jump from what've Funk been into
2001.


on the other hand i finally got an ear on Mathew. was i disappointed?
almost. following discussion on a list for a while, i expected
something more special - a great production at least, even if i
wouldnt like it personally. and this is where i'm stuck, cause both
decompression and behind the mirror EPs appear so average to me.
yeah, Mathew got an unique style to a certain extent [i'd say: by
combining known elements] and even own sound to it [although
its more like bad mastering for my liking]. and rite, his tracks are
all groovy and well constructed and they got a soul too. yet somehow
they feel too raw.. somehow tracks are going so straight, so much
nowhere, and transitions are mostly fades. it would explain if these
releases are largely recorded live. and if i'd like harmonies,
rhythmics and sound on those EPs, i'd enjoy them still. unfortunately
it doesnt fit my taste and i cant rave about production as well.


allrite
lets roll on wednesday!

 we'll see how much you love them when theyre in nursing homes
 because no one lives near them to help them. this is a very 
 american thing to do, move away, let your family rot. good job. i 
 bet theyll really appreciate that later in life living alone in 
 someplace called sunnyside retirement village. 
 theres no being tied to anything. i expect more people to have a
 sense of responsibility towards those people who raised them. but 
 im the spoiled one, right? 


i do love my parents - from the distance, i dont really need my
loved ones rotating around me. + i dont feel any family ties at all,
and i have got my own life to live - i dont think i should be a
guardian angel to _any_ particular people, even my family not - i'm
here to help anyone at right place and time and cant do it any better
than just being myself and doing what i feel like to. i'm kinda not
responsible for other people lives, i'm responsible for my own - we
all die alone:)

thats true, the ears can judge! although i think anyone of us can

(313) aural vs visual // [was: Laptop performances]

2004-06-25 Thread z99


..related topic or possibly the root of it all

although i really dig visual beauty - be it motionless pictures or
videoart, or the world out there: the geometry of things, their
placement, color gamma, lighting, bla - and i'm VJing myself, creating
surreal worlds of programmed 3D space - i found visuals dull without
muzik backup. wait, not a backup, rather a guidance - since muzik
without visuals loses nothing.

visuals are unsound, u know?:D


sound is such a mystic magic, its so much unknown compared to visuals.
things my seem distant and mean other things, sound means nothing but a
heartwarming material. a single sound can induce joy or happines, an
organized stream of emotionally charged sound packets makes a
soul-language.

nothing comes close to being as much fusion of art and science as musik.

it really doesnt matter if there is someone on the stage or not, its
enough to know the source is present.



damn! my initial plan was a reasonable statement, talking muzik got
carried away, and this turned out to be poem again, silly me:D


resume:

hearing carrier of infinite space
i can close my eyes
just cant close my ears
techno is a lifetime battery

not again!

solution is to play so impressive musik, noone thinks about show
otherwise, bring your dancers team to the stage.

hey and why not revisit something old?
the past, unknown to one, carries no less mystery than future.
after all everything melds into present, this very moment, right
here


sorry for pretending to be wise=)

hih, this is funny..

i've noticed people dancing facing random directions in Europe, but in
my homeland named Latvia everyone [with a rare exceptions is facing DJ
as a rule. might have to do something with the fact that the soundsystem
is also mostly located on the DJs end..
