Honey Dijon

new album 'black girl magic' out, there's some great stuff on it.

anyone else into her? i like-to-love her productions generally speaking. never seen her dj.

yes, she's an amazing dj if you like "classic" style house (as in the record label of that name run by luke solomon and derrick carter)

her boiler room madrid set from ~5 years ago probably the last boiler room i was real excited abt

i like the trick she does around 24 mins, back then seemed like a signature that she would use 3-5 times per set. i guess if you're going to use a djm might make full use of that silly "spiral" digital delay effect

there was a boiler room honey dijon set around the same time i remember being really good where the record skipped during a mix (idk if something bumped the stage, fuzz on the stylus or maybe there was a nick in the vinyl) and she had to navigate out of a massive trainwreck. at the end of the set she grabbed the mic from the mc and gave a somewhat defensive speech about the realness of mixing vinyl. i forget if that's this set, i think it's a different one, but i remember that one being really good too

actually i forgot the sherelle boiler room from feb 2019 but that's a whole other thing

wanna check this out, but first I thought

promising thread titles that turn out to be on ILM

her profile is pretty high right now thanks to the beyonce album.

anyway this one from the new album is pretty lush

'it's quiet now' is the title.

wow this almost sounds like a late 70s track, I like it

i remember when finding this “edit” of “shades of jae” on slsk around 2010, well after it came out on vinyl. i was looking for green velvet productions, this was mislabeled as “dank” (since it uses the acapella). i don’t think it’s fair to call it an edit. more like they jacked the loop from “shades of jae” and used it as the foundation for a whole new rhythm track in the skippedy skip boompty house tradition

anyway i only learned this week that it turns out to be a very very early (2005!) honey dijon co-production
