Is it just me or is Fairmont's "Gazebo"....

is it really something inherent in the sound of it that would make one think it is happy or bleak, or is it just what we project onto it and what it evokes? (musicians view on this as well as just critics would be cool!). but you can ask this of an endless ream of house tracks.

i think it's okay. i did actually have to ask Lex what it was when he played it out a few weeks back so it was clearly doing something interesting. weirdly when i dl'd and listened to it the next day i couldn't understand what i had been that excited or curious about at the time. but i listened to it twice earlier because of this thread and i started to like it more (again).

Stevo, come to Tivoli on the 19th of May. Mayer (!) will spin and Nuño Dos Santos is spinning before him and he's a fan of "Gazebo" - he played it before Vitalic's set in february and boy does it sound good when played loud (even though Tivoli's acoustics aren't really good).

Also, Steve, like most of this stuff it needs to be played LOUD to work. It's one of those records that can sound totally somnolent and Boards of Canada-house at home, then an absolute banger when you hear it out.

guitars and drum machines, they say roy orbison/ the smiths/ twin peaks, i'd add ... the chills?

ugh, still can never get the formatting right on this board

I just got ambushed by this tune in a mix of big warehouse techno having not heard it for years and it took every ounce of restraint in my body not to just start raving on the bus.

TUNE

kind of want to dj a party and refuse to play anything other than mid 00s border community tracks
