oh the baile funk sampling tune!
omg i hear the the other one now. the wild west themed one with train crossing bell? idk what it is but YES it's brilliant
god i love how they either mix in or actually interpolate parts of 'marina gasolina' preceding to give it the full touch of evil mexican border town lawless twilight vibe

the funny thing about these sets is that for me they've rekindled my enthusiasm for jackin (well, belief in its agency rather) but also made me surer than ever that viewing jackin as some wild isolated sui generis tribe is totally the wrong way to gain any meaningful purchase on it
Yes, I've struggled with the question of whether enjoying jackin' in the context of, say, a DJ Q set, is getting a misreading on it the same way I would have considered to be the case for someone approaching funky via Oneman or whoever. Like, is there something inherently point-missing about the polystylistic pick'n'mix appraoch?
Obv. a key difference is the nature/character/context of the person doing the picking and mixing. But it also just feels like jackin' itself is less interested in constructing its own soundworld, is more open to and curious about the world around it, forms a cluster of intensity within a broader disseminated vibe-chain rather than establishing its own nation-state-of-vibe.

yeah like i mean take for instance 'jack' playing now, at first you think oh right it's 'jack' big tune on the scene etc etc. but listen closer and isn't the crucial kinda weirdly queasy animal groaning that makes the track (counterintuitively not erotic at all in juxtaposition with the vocal) such a move totally at home amongst jackin - absolutely not appropriated by in dialogue, but something already there that jackin waxes and wanes on as it suits it
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 19 June 2013 23:20 (eleven years ago) link
and after that the same taiki & nulight mix of ray foxx that dj q played just to underline the point

Agreed re "Jack". BUT! What is that oh holy fuck amazing broken machine loop at about 111 minutes??
― Tim F, Thursday, 20 June 2013 09:30 (eleven years ago) link
don't know but this is the wild west one you two were talking about upthread:
https://soundcloud.com/justin-martin-music/db087-01-justin-martin-and
there's also one simple reason i think that makes 2:31 shows more vibey and exciting than yr average jackin/house & bass mix: tunes being mixed in and out relatively quickly! i mean selection-wise 2:31 obviously has its own quirks of course (tons of C&A, Shorterz' euro-leanings) but mostly it's the same tunes you get in other jackin/h&b mixes, with the difference that those other mixes usually feel plodding coz the tunes drag out for cca 4 mins and here it's all fast-paced whizz-bang stuff - which is how it should be, 'proper' house tunes usually peak several mins in but this stuff lays out all its wares as soon as it can so it does not lend well to trad house mixing really
― Mind Taker, Thursday, 20 June 2013 10:07 (eleven years ago) link
v true of course. kinda starting to wonder if there's actually any type of music that i wouldnt enjoy as long as it was mixed hard n fast
doh yes it is indeed 'wheelgunner'. rmde epic diligence fail since not only do i see i must have heard it in mixes loads of times but i already seem to have the dirtybird players comp on here
mt would you also happen know what the very linear bouncy number is they play with the breathy "couldnt do this without you" male croon?

tim surely you havent failed to recognise your own beloved 'kneadin'??
oh wait but the clanker i was on about upthread is there at 118 mins actually
― r|t|c, Thursday, 20 June 2013 10:54 (eleven years ago) link
No 111 minutes not 71 minutes!
― Tim F, Thursday, 20 June 2013 12:02 (eleven years ago) link
And by the same token do you meant the clanker at 78 minutes? Because that's some serious clanking action.
― Tim F, Thursday, 20 June 2013 14:13 (eleven years ago) link
Also Mind Taker is spot on with the analysis. Further to that point these machine loop tunes like "Wheelgunner (Dub)" arguably don't even work as standalones, the trick is in how Shorterz and Cause & Affect drop into them and then mix out as soon as possible into something else.

am slightly more predisposed to Youngman's style than to Gartner's and *still* can easily off the top of my head name several Gartner's tunes i've enjoyed while struggling with Youngman - WG's Britney remix is up there with the best of mersh electrohouse, JY's best can barely compete with, say, the grooveliciousness of Jason Hodges' "Sweat of Your Brow" rmx or delirious all-out wackiness of Soydan's "Running with the Beat"
(sorry for furthering the thread derail but i rarely get a chance to ramble on about this sort of stuff!)

Starting with "Darlin" is kinda inspired too.
― Tim F, Tuesday, 8 October 2013 21:54 (ten years ago) link
shamefully - and god knows why - this is the only Benny's recent ukg-related mix i haven't checked out yet
when i saw the tracklist i was puzzled/intrigued by the omission of several HUGE tunes that have become available between the two Lorenzo volumes ("Money Cant Bye It"! "Shake It"! "Stronger Than Me"! "Moving Closer"! "Trouble"!) - guess i'm so used to a somewhat sturdy consensus on key jackin tunes that i tend to forget that not everyone has to have the same taste as me? or maybe the mixmaster just wants to keep a few aces up his sleeve for the third volume, who knows ;)
― Mind Taker, Tuesday, 8 October 2013 22:27 (ten years ago) link
"Kneadin" is the biggest tune not included IMO. Also some days my tune of 2013.
