this sounds like the worst thing

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 15:54 (nineteen years ago)

they sucked this summer

― Catsupppppppppppppp dude ‫茄蕃‪, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:00 (nineteen years ago)

so 2004 it hurts...

― moonship journey to baja, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:10 (nineteen years ago)

wasn't never scared from '03? how are they gonna include the same kano song

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:12 (nineteen years ago)

at least the token Baltimore club track is a really good one! I don't really know anything else on it besides like Rick Ross and Yes, though.

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:20 (nineteen years ago)

It has my favourite ever italodisco song on it!

― braveclub, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:24 (nineteen years ago)

That Yes song is great

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:26 (nineteen years ago)

it doesn't have switch's remix of "bump", which is the best thing with the words "spank rock" or "amanda blank" attached to it.

― moonship journey to baja, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:26 (nineteen years ago)

featuring the impossibly rare cosmic disco hit "owner of a lonely heart" by obscure prog rockers yes

― moonship journey to baja, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:27 (nineteen years ago)

Wait Al you don't know "The Breaks"?

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:27 (nineteen years ago)

i have a blend of baby got back over that yes joint called 'owner of a lonely butt'

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:27 (nineteen years ago)

"Owner of a Lonely Heart" is old skool r&b by a one hit wonder, not cosmic disco by prog rockers. get it right

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:29 (nineteen years ago)

xp lol

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:29 (nineteen years ago)

well yeah, hence I said "like" and not "these are the only 3 songs I know". but really I didn't even see that "The Breaks" was on there.

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:29 (nineteen years ago)

so wait arent these cats fake booty bass?? why is this all hipster dance??

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:30 (nineteen years ago)

tag team >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> kano

― moonship journey to baja, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:32 (nineteen years ago)

there's a difference between those 2 things?? (xpost)

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:32 (nineteen years ago)

anyway the presence of bostich, yes and rick ross makes it pretty clear this is far from digging in the crates-type mix of obscurities

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:33 (nineteen years ago)

it has romantics - talking in your sleep on it:D

not fussed by the rest really

― 600, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:34 (nineteen years ago)

well isn't the whole catch 22 of these kinds of "official DJ mix" CDs that they can only include what they can legally clear to use, not actual rarities/obscurities?

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:35 (nineteen years ago)

I could only stand to listen to this once

so 2004 it hurts

otm

― dmr, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:35 (nineteen years ago)

rarities are probably easier to clear than major label Yes tracks! or at least less $$.

― dmr, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:36 (nineteen years ago)

i mean it's kinda like dissing that XXL Raps CD for not being obscure enough. (xpost)

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:36 (nineteen years ago)

^^^i think these cds were actually part of the required curriculum at my h.s.

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:38 (nineteen years ago)

my fav is vol 2

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:38 (nineteen years ago)

not really! this is pretty rote hipster dance fodder at this point - 80s italo/electro/disco classics, throwaway southern rap single, OLD SKOOL HIP-HOP, then a bunch of MOR hipster dance like latter-day daft punk and metro area. its all really obvious. they could easily have gotten more obscure and probably paid less in clearances (and closer to what their actual sound is)

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:39 (nineteen years ago)

this whole section right here is all good enough stuff but massively played out (cept the motown of course)

07. Zongamin – Bongo Song – XL
08. Kano – I’m Ready – Antibemusic
09. Daft Punk – Technologic – Virgin
10. Switch – A Bit Patchy – Data
11. The Contours – Do You Love Me – Motown
12. Mylo – Drop The Pressure – Breastfed

― dmr, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:40 (nineteen years ago)

i have all three volumes and i agree about vol. 2 actually!

i like the R&B ones the most

xp

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:40 (nineteen years ago)

five of these tracks have been on other fabric comps. this is so rote it's embarassing.

― moonship journey to baja, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:40 (nineteen years ago)

3. Freak It - Lathun
4. Apple Pie - Virgo
5. Summertime Summertime - Corina

^^^yessss

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:41 (nineteen years ago)

oh and INOJ's "Love You Down"!

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:41 (nineteen years ago)

This is possibly the most played out selection ever to make it onto a Fabric compilation. Drop The Pressure! In 2007!

― Matt DC, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:42 (nineteen years ago)

Technologic! In 2007!

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:45 (nineteen years ago)

lol @ dude with a bmore club blog calling my city's music 'hipster dance'

"12. Mylo – Drop The Pressure – Breastfed"

^^^this is fucking hilarious

― creme1, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:46 (nineteen years ago)

there are mainstream minsitry of sound comps from like 2004 with almost identical tracklistings

― creme1, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:47 (nineteen years ago)

uhh should we be parsing the difference between fake booty bass and "real" booty bass? (xpost)

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:48 (nineteen years ago)

30. Justice vs. Simian - We Are Your Friends

33. Wildchild - Renegade Master (Fatboy Slim Remix)

― Matt DC, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:49 (nineteen years ago)

Thing is, I can sort of see that Do You Love Me/Drop The Pressure segue really working but I'm sure I actually heard Erol or someone do it like three years ago.

― Matt DC, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:50 (nineteen years ago)

33. Wildchild - Renegade Master (Fatboy Slim Remix)

this is better than anything on the real cd

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:51 (nineteen years ago)

Haha I actually sort of want to listen to it now!

― Matt DC, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:52 (nineteen years ago)

haha i've been messing around with blending rappers and dance stuff for awhile on my computer, i think this shit is the best. Have you heard Suga Free's "Pimpin in the Year 3000"? He does a lot of hip-house actually

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:57 (nineteen years ago)

i havent progressed beyond last years intoxicated/vitalic blend and the gangsta boo/sonz of de loop de loop era

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:58 (nineteen years ago)

and ying yang over 'rize up' by chemical bros

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 16:58 (nineteen years ago)

gangsta boo/sonz of de loop de loop era

SHARE THIS BITCH.

yeah yeah

xp lex DOLLARSTORE

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:01 (nineteen years ago)

ive spent a lot of time trying to replicate that bassline, its almost like late 90s pop-dnb roni size shit

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:02 (nineteen years ago)

i should just accept that, much like homer simpson, music will never be better than what i listened to in high school

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:02 (nineteen years ago)

seriously i would not complain if that bassline was on permanent loop in my head for ooh the next decade or so

― lex pretend, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:05 (nineteen years ago)

haha i've been messing around with blending rappers and dance stuff for awhile on my computer

that's basically the whole new a-trak mix for obey... but the ppl I heard talking about it hated it
I haven't heard it yet

nb. the guys dissing it were clerks at turnt4bl3lab so make of that what you will

― dmr, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:05 (nineteen years ago)

A-Trak's love of subversive animals and poppy colors

o_O

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:09 (nineteen years ago)

is there a tracklist?

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:10 (nineteen years ago)

i've seen a trak live and i'll be honest he's a pretty good DJ. He gets into the gimmicky 80s rock thing on occasion but he makes it work unlike lots of these dudes.

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:11 (nineteen years ago)

there was def a time in my life when i woulda dismissed that straight up but lately im not enough of a real rap dogmatist to pretend i wouldnt fuck with it

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:15 (nineteen years ago)

i mean when i saw him live it was after flosstradamus so maybe it was just one of those great by comparison things but seriously, he threw a good party, knew how to build tension throughout the set and when&what to mix

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:16 (nineteen years ago)

cept for the aforementioned 80s cheese rock

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:21 (nineteen years ago)

yeah i respect dudes like him with real battle-honed DJ skills beyond whether their actual taste/selection is good or bad

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:26 (nineteen years ago)

it has a tracklist lke Never Scared where it references some of the track names but doesnt give real titles

here's an excerpt from the review on ttlab (whoever they got to review it liked it a lot I guess)

Yung Joc's "It's Goin' Down" over Soulwax's "E Talking?" Rick Ross' "Hustlin'" over Simian Mobile Disco's "Hustler?" They shouldn't work, but goddamn they do. Also features remixes of "Throw Some D's," "Wamp Wamp," "Bojangles," "Stuntin' Like My Daddy," "My Love" and a ton more. Loving the new M.I.A. ("XR2") over the Moroder track, and the XXXchange-produced Kid Sister joint, too.

I dunno. doesn't sound that good to me. if someone gave it to me I'd listen to it I guess.

― dmr, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:30 (nineteen years ago)

that sounds shitty

i thought it was gonna be like pastor troy over raver shit not spankrock/diplo affilates over hipster dance

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:39 (nineteen years ago)

played out pop rap over simian mobile disco isn't exactly what i was thinking

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:39 (nineteen years ago)

xp yeah

― deej, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:39 (nineteen years ago)

HI DERE WAHT IS AWESOME

my itunes just fucked up and started playing two songs at the same time.

^^^ do i smell a fabriclive mix for noize board bad boy dean gulberry?

― and what, Friday, 27 April 2007 17:44 (nineteen years ago)

"rappers over dance stuff" just reminded me of it, I didn't mean to imply it was good

fits pretty well with this thread tho

-- Alex in Baltimore, Friday, April 27, 2007 6:26 PM (1 week ago)

why

― r|t|c, Thursday, 10 May 2007 18:38 (nineteen years ago)

um because i respect skills/musicianship (gasp shock rockism)!?!? even in a producer/DJ context where that kind of thing is harder to quantify, there are dudes like him who you can't accuse of just beatmatching some cute juxtaposition or whatever.

― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 10 May 2007 18:47 (nineteen years ago)

but isn't Rick Ross Hustlin' over SMD Hustler the definition of a cute juxtaposition?

― dmr, Thursday, 10 May 2007 19:01 (nineteen years ago)

maybe I'm misunderstanding the argument

― dmr, Thursday, 10 May 2007 19:02 (nineteen years ago)

the operative word in my post was "just."

― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 10 May 2007 19:03 (nineteen years ago)

i mean, i'm not really into 'turntablism,' but i'm just saying there's a difference between some hack with a serato who can't beatmatch and a-trak doing mash-ups, even if i don't necessarily want to listen to either.

― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 10 May 2007 19:05 (nineteen years ago)

it's like the difference between a guitarist in a shitty metal band and a guitarist in a shitty punk band. you might not wanna buy a record by either, but it's not hard to tell who has more skills.

― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 10 May 2007 19:06 (nineteen years ago)

I didn't like it as a whole. The mixing from song to song was awkward. However, Amanda Blank rapping over the Justice remix of Mr. Oizo's track I found to be amazing..I wish that song was longer. I wouldn't buy it though.

― somuchsomuch24, Thursday, 10 May 2007 22:40 (nineteen years ago)

Actually cool blends i've done recently:

Cash Crew - "High Powered Rap" over Joe Bataan - "The Bottle"

Schooly D "Saturday Night" over Too Short - "Just Another Day"
