thanks to serato, i have been branching off into wild directions as far as musical selections go. i really liked that LCD record, so i have been checking other stuff on DFA, as well as a bunch of DFA remixes. i also have been digging MSTRKRFT remixes, and their album. that Uffie shit is pretty crazy, but heads don't seem to be ready for that in $mond, VA. Justice makes some really crazy shit, but it is a little too hard for my tastes. Angie Reed has a couple of songs I have been digging, as well as !!!. and i like tussle, thats shits real spacey and dubbed out. pretty cool. are SF heads diggin them? i liked that alan braxe bossy remix on the house tip...whats some other shit that i should know about?

Also check out some of the Kitsune compilations (I like the older ones best).
Dondolo - "Dragon" (on Tiny Sticks label)
Anything by Kerri Chandler seems to be killing it right now (we can't keep them in stock) "Bar a Thym" is one of my favs.
Kerrier District EP's (Luke Vibert does electro-boogie)
Chicken Lips - "Echoman" LP (a few years old but pure dubbed out heat! not really feelin' there new one though)
Metro Area - "Metro Area" LP (one of my favs from the last 5 years, they have a new one in the works too)
Kelley Polar Quartet - "Audition" and "Recital" EP's (the new album is also amazing, although it's very different from these 2 EP's)
...I'll try and think of some more.
look for "Booty La La" & the Macy Grey remix "When I See You"
thanks for the other suggestions.
DFA have a few pretty great songs, the holiday mix they made was awesome. MSTRKRFT are kinda overrated to me, Uffie is terrible and about as much 'dance' as she is 'rap.' !!! are like Red Hot Chili Peppers in tighter jeans with fewer good songs. Braxe is dope.
Get Physical is an amazing label. Kompakt is still doing pretty good considering. Some of my favorite mixes from the past 5 years or so...
Michael Mayer's Immer
DJ Naughty's One Night in Berlin
Mei Lwun's Uno Records Vol 1
Get Physical's 2nd Anniversary Mix
Plus artist albums but Luomo, MRI, etc.
Yes! I should have mentioned them.
Other great labels...
Deep Freeze
Bear Funk
Winding Road
I didn't mention Spirit Catcher (very dope producer!)
We just got this Zero 7 12" that has a really dope discoish track on it called "You're My Flame" (Justus Kohncke Disko Dub)
- switch / dave taylor remixes
Hottest label right now, we can't keep them shits in stock! Not really my cup of tea but they're killin' shit right now.
Why do they rename this music every year?
dude i am no great fan but you're way off the mark there
i really get the feeling that across the board, you don't listen to the things you champion / dismiss
you remind me of that kid in school who won't stop raising his hand even if he doesn't know the answer
Because it's not really the same thing?
It's foundation is shared but really isn't the same thing.
Kinda like how tech-step wasn't jungle.
Or to me at least.
Less talk about genre-defining, more talk about good music.
Anybody have an mp3 of "Art Of Hot", I got the promo 2LP of the album and it's not on there
Slick track.
ill add on:
Deepfreeze in the Uk great label with dope releases by Boogie Corporation, Silver City etc.. i've got a 12" dropping on there soonish
Bear Funk / Bear Entertainment - again top drawer UK label.. I've got a 12" in the pipeline for them
Rong - esp the prins thomas reedits ep and the Barfly shit.. soooo dope
Triangle Orchestra
Outergaze - great label from japan.. just dropped an INSANE lindstrom double 12"
Full Pupp - norwegian bear offshoot... tod terje / prins thomas and lindstrom. .you cannot go wrong!
Feedelity - lindstrom and prins label.. bonkers cosmic shit
Truffle - my boy Steve Yankos label.. he put out the 12" that is my avatar
which reminds me you should peep Munk / Gomma / Who Made Who as well.
peep the disco / balaeric pages on piccadilly records for all the latest steeze
i too want to hate on MSTRKRFT but that's probably more due to the fact that they're from toronto and ive never seen so much hype for guys with only 3 tracks under their belt.. havent peeped the record yet.
i agree !!! might be hipster approved but both them and Outhud are doing some good shit.
yo S!MON - i got a new job but the messenger is down for some reason / hopefuly ill get it fixed and we can chat soon.
cosiiign. That apache remix is my favourite thing in the club currently. people bug out
france is really doign it right now, with Para One, Feadz, oizo, Justice, boyznoize, kavinsky, Grand Marnier, tacteel, etc. its probably one of the more refreshing music scenes going on
France has always been
Kavinsky's myspace is bonkers!
Yes. Forget the hype machine and just dig the music. The same can be said for Spank Rock.
Frankly I'm convinced you don't listen to the things you champion/dismiss, you just read them off pitchfork's RECOMMENDED! section. (I dont actually know what you like i'm just being a wiseass re:!!!)
(I actually did like that Outhud album)
Anywhere I can listen to this band (pretty hard to search for on google!).
Dubious check your PM's.
That last Mr. Oizo elpee was the shit (and the first one too). A lot of people fronted on it because it's all over the place, but I love it. You'd definitely needs a very openminded dancefloor to play that stuff. Same goes for Jackson & His Computer Band on Warp. More frenchie madman music. I've got one of his old 12" on SOB and an insane Vanessa Paradis remix he did too. Dancemusic for the loony bin.
actually im pretty sure i heard of something called O.U.T.H.U.D. or at least that's what i think they were called but maybe im mixing them up with C.H.U.D. anyways, i seem to remember them being all computer boopbeepboobeeboobeerrrrrr music which was alright for the time but i was never really more interested than that. what's wrong with pussycat dolls? at least theyre hot chicks that dress like whores. i mean, wtf, does DFA do that? cuz if so show some pics.
anyways, there's this new hooker that's posted up on my block in front of the korean catholic church and she always heckles me and it makes me want to take a shower in bleach. she is large and could prolly hurt me.

Just listened to a couple of there tracks, a little too emo for me.
Damn it's not working
I'll try again.
