Thanks for the tip, I'll check that one out. And I'll re-up the house mixtape once I get home from work.

So this mixtape then Tuomas? Still looking forward to having a listen.

if i had to summarize in a sentence, it'd go like this:

like rap, prince never really understood how to do house, which was ironic, because he inspired a lot of house music and because house music stole a big chunk of his fans

dude, I just saw this now. thank you! it made my night, srsly.

if I don't see more dissent, I'm going to have to check myself in (Matos W.K.), Sunday, 27 September 2009 12:17 (fourteen years ago) link

two years pass...

great thread.

there's a stretch (1:20 on) from Moodymann's "Live at the Arches Mix" that compliments this discussion together rather neatly. KDJ drops/loops "Forever in My Life" from the "Small Club" boot.

four years pass...
two weeks pass...

the l vis 1990 remix of batdance which i recently rediscovered is pretty cool. he makes it something that jam city might have put on his first albm almost. more of a dj tool than a proper track (unless theres a longer version around) but it becomes this sort of brutal 80s industrial drum attack.

Sounds interesting, is it available to buy/dl anywhere?

eleven months pass...

Would anyone happen to have a good copy of "Sign O' the Times (DMC Mix)"? It's one of the best Prince remixes I've ever heard, but all I've been able to find online is a vinyl rip with less than perfect sound quality.

Between changing computers I seem to have lost even the vinyl rip file of this, would anyone happen to have it? Like many DMC mixes this one appears to be unauthorised, so I'm not sure if it's ever had a official release of any sort.
