btw: Did anybody hear Domenico Ferrari vs. Luomo - "Kick" remixes ?
― bojan (bojanm), Friday, 17 September 2004 17:49 (twenty years ago) link
imagine he put some more effort into drum programming!

House music will NEVER DIE. Also, the 4/4 kick is absolutely intrinsic to Luomo's music.

The first time I heard this was in 1991. And then again in 1994. and again in... I remember when a clerk at Amoeba told me that they removed the house section because drum n bass was "where everything was headed". In fact, people have been declaring the death of the 4/4 kick since the mid-70s.
Also, Luomo's actual stab at garage-y syncopation happens on "Melt (AGF Dlay edit), and it's actually quite successful. However, it's not as successful as the slow burn 4/4 thump on the album - on 'Vocalcity' it's like he actually makes us believe that the heart beats at a constant 120 bpm. As for UK Garage's vocal science and how it "takes its rhythms from dancehall/ragga", well, half of UK Garage is 4/4 and the vocal science comes directly from American Garage House music - specifically the dubs. Todd Edwards turned it into a science and he only records in 4/4 (although I wish he'd mix it up a bit). I'd be cautious about the notion of 'progressing' 'beyond' 4/4. Also, please note that I love 2-Step, grime and breaks as much as anyone...
