A few months back somebody on the list was asking about Lil Louis (something about booking details?).
Anyways... one of my favourite records of the year so far would have to be Kimara Lovelace's 'Misery', which came out a few months back on King Street. The main track is produced and mixed by Lil Louis (club & harmony mixes), and it's a killer piece of work. Similar to the Black Magic 'Freedom' 12" on Strictly Rhythm (also with live bass by Gene Perez), but not so straight ahead... and IMHO alot better. Lil Louis back in top form.
And... for something a little different. Check the Isolee mix of Turner's 'Been Out' on Ladomat 2000. This mix is more in the vein of "Beau Mot Plage" than the (also excellent) 'Rest' 2xLP, with driving rhythms and some nice subtle songwriting twists that gradually emerge in the arrangement. You might want to play this one at minus 4 though!
Just to finish... white labels of Sound Signature # 10 and 11 have been circulating for a little while now. Both are 2 track 12"s. SS010 features 'Take It' (the track that Theo played at the DEMF)... which sounds a little like a recent Recloose track. hmmm :)
Hopefully both these 12"s should be out in the not too distant future. peace ~Askew
now we can all get back to the ongoing "yo momma's on smack/not black enough/a toneshifter" thread...
