Re: (313) Karizma - Twist This
Karizma - Twist This (R2) I heard Karizma drop this a couple of months ago at Cargo. The place erupted. Then I found out what it was. It is apparently on R2 Records, though I can't see the details on their site. Check it out. It has the sickest build up and when it finally drops, I challenge you to not to start moving. Sweet bassline, great beats and some really really crisp production. I listened to it on the way to work this morning with the windows down and the sun rising and I tell you what - it felt like summer was here already. I like that track. Kinda 'big' for me but it's a simple idea (a good thing). Interesting little interview too of Karizma by Giles there too. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio1_aod.shtml?radio1/peterson) In light of Toby's comments about Ableton and Surgeon yesterday they discuss the changing formats in dance music and the use of CD players. Karizma says he has to worry less about knackered needles and can plan ahead more with his mixes and 'flow' better and do madder things with digital. robin...

I think that both analogue and digital have their place. I don't see that it is necessary to chose one as being better than any other - not saying that you are, but it is an argument that continually comes up every now and then. The one thing that I feel quite strongly about though is the visual performance of mixing with vinyl. I really enjoy watching someone working the decks. That said, when I saw Karizma he was working the EQs like a nutter. It was great.

There's a place for all formats. As long as the 'dj' knows how to do the job then formats are neither here nor there. I've recently bought music digitally and not on vinyl and it feels like I've bought fast food rather than cooked a decent fresh meal when compared with my usual mountains of vinyl. I can't be bothered with a flame war before anyone tries btw. I just think things are changing and we need to acknowledge that along with any new possibilities that pop up as a consequence of that change. I'm up for a discussion though, but an argument - no. Anyway...as you were. :) robin...

I kinda feel the same way. I still love buying and playing vinyl, it's much more addictive than buying digital tracks having that new release in my hands. BUT, the problem is, I'm more and more loathe to take my vinyl anyplace besides my house. It gets ruined and scratched so fast, and I'm very poor and it seems like a real waste when I'm destroying records faster than I can play them. Plus my PA keeps getting better and more popular, so nobody around here really even wants me to play vinyl at this point. I just spin for fun at friends' apartments on off nights these days. ~David

Karizma - Twist This (R2) I haven't heard this mentioned on the list yet... I heard Karizma drop this a couple of months ago at Cargo. The place erupted. Then I found out what it was.

I listened to it on the way to work this morning with the windows down and the sun rising and I tell you what - it felt like summer was here already. Just my opinion though. You all might hate it :) N P.S: Actually, if you check here you will be able to listen to it... between 35-40 minutes in IIRC.

Re: [313] Karizma
2. Can anyone else point me in the direction of some equally strong vocal tracks that have come out in recent years? My faith in vocals was restored last friday when I picked up the album 'Mondo Grosso' by Shinichi Osawa - this is a -great- record. Variety of styles from your melodic piano vocals, to broken beated r/b style vocals, to George Benson and latino salsa style funky tracks. Can't recommend it enough! I would say this album rates with Nuyorican Soul for variety and quality. -Dave __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Auctions - Buy the things you want at great prices. http://auctions.yahoo.com/

2. Can anyone else point me in the direction of some equally strong vocal tracks that have come out in recent years? Sun Kids feat' Chance's Rise Up (Basement Boys main mix) on Yellorange is the most obvious one. It is stunningly good - a bona fida classic. Chance sounds a lot like Aretha Franklin, which, I'm sure you'll agree, is pretty strong! Also check out Rescue Me by the same. The Basement Boys are fairly unstoppable, just now - everything on their label is worth at least checking. Jonny.
Re: [313] Karizma
If by Jeff Mills!! I thought the singer Anna F was an American but she is from Amsterdam and sings in clubs cafes and the like, so I am told. The Ron Trent mix of Amel Larrieux's Get Up The MJ Cole mix of Jill Scott's Gettin' In The Way (this man is bigger than two-step!) And my absolutely fave new female artist - Nicole Willis, whose album Soul Makeover is co-produced by Maurice Fulton Jimi Tenor (her husband), and is off the hook - it's out on a Finnish label Sahko. There is a track on there that could be The Supremes produced by Model 500. The album is jazz, neo-soul, electro, house, (Detroit) techno. It's not neo-soul but future soul. Amazing! 2.
