it was inevitable that this dude would be involved with a project that interests me. i should probably seek this out.

wonder what goes into the live sets. laptoppage?

how many tracks got renamed?

or were "drax" and "negro" just made-up names?

also: will buy t-shirt of that cover

why would they come all the way over to canada and not come to the states?

mutek is a festival ... last i heard radio slave was just djing, maybe they took the opportunity to also turn it into a one off qv live thing ... i think they have other commitments in europe during the surrounding dates (i was snooping around their schedules thinking if they can be in mtl then why not toronto)

am curious about this. have liked the remixes i've heard.

a few months ago i picked this record: http://www.discogs.com/release/805571

i thought that maybe this was the inspiration for the name. seems maybe more likely than martin denny.

grrr

no way

this stuff is totally guilty pleasure
all about reveling in the aesthetic rather than the music (altho the music is the aesthetic omg)

how is it guilty pleasure?

i kinda like the novelty of it and when its on its like 'aha im listening to hip instrumental vibez' but i cant imagine not looking back on this in two years like ive been spending my time on instrumental hip hop

is a disco beat really any different from a breakbeat

it kinda feels like the music is so tied to the conceptual novelty that when context changes its not gonna age real well

what else have you got to do?

do you think mo'wax has aged badly? maybe this proves I'm an old jackass but i think most of the early trip-hop stuff sounds even better than it did 5 years ago!

actually i know that's already been proven

Vahid otm, and apologies for not crediting your beardo = trip hop theory above.

Hey, this sounds great, too.

i cant get enough of 'too high to move,' amazing song

just missed 420 by 3 days ;_;

deej you need to smoke more pot

yeah i should really post on ilx more too o_O

this music is for all time

but i am a triphop/ez cheezy vibez apologist so i don't know

i dont like that one song 'cant be beat.' do like how 'gold rush' sounds like the beginning of ccr doing 'grapevine.' <3 pillowtalk, too high to move and utopia

i dont like that one song 'cant be beat.'

what!!! crazy talk

"pacific rhythm" is ryuichi sakamoto track from 'summer nerves.' straight sample jack, i don't even know that it's looped

just ordered for less than $20 (including shipping) direct from !K7

It's an unmixed DJ-Kicks, right?

BOOM BOOM

im gonna release a cd of 'edits' that is just originals w/ that reggae airhorn effect on top

love that sound

utopia is some corny ass bullshit

jergins get off ur high horse

if u manage to take girls to bed to that song i don't wanna meet the girls

referencing Silent Movie, CD, Album

Interesting cd if your blatantly ignorant of all the artists that where ripped-off and never made mention of in the liner noted. Sacrilege by the label K7 which should have been sued for releasing tripe like this.
I contacted Andreas Vollenweider's (a man whose music is truly inspirational!) management to advise them off the theft of Vollenweider's music on the release. Hopefully this cd is now just a coaster in the studios coffee room!

wow.
so much anger for someone who listens to such calming music.

same x3, really really great disc

i was disappointed that "drax" never made it on cd... it's "children of the universe" by double fantasy album with a super slow tribal-ish beat on top. so vibey

album

went through a phase with this earlier this year. super underrated and held up way better than i remembered.

joel martin is now doing somethin under the name velvet season & the hearts of gold. they put out a sanctioned edit from the stems of this balearic bomb this year: clive steven - mystery man. very good

did not know one of these guys is radio slave. i remember not liking the album as much as those first two twelve inches.

yeah i missed that brainchild reissue :

so good

revive!

listening through we are family lp yesterday and got here and was like "ahhh there you are!"

but i'm wrong, and based on a snippet i heard this cover is the correct answer:

"pacific rhythm" is ryuichi sakamoto track from 'summer nerves.' straight sample jack, i don't even know that it's looped

both released in 1979.

bought a folk comp a few months back and when the groove of this track kicked in, took me several days to realise where i had heard it before.

Has anyone ever been able to figure out what the sample source for Singing Sand is?

New material coming soon apparently

Oh wow nice! Always adored Silent Movie
