hi, i'm trying to ID a famous (possibly a classic) house track that has this saxophone. i'm sure it's well known but somehow it escapes me. i heard it played by derrick may. anyone can mention some major house tracks with sax? thanks.

The Conversation has to be the most famous...

yea that's the one! thanks.

What about 'The Story Continues'? That's the version of I Called U with the sax...

My favorite thing to do is to layer Why'd U Fall and The Story Continues... people scream like Indiana girls at a 1964 Beatles concert when I do that.

Xpost: Yeah, I remember elsewhere you mentioned that cutting between the two works really well. I even tried it on a computer (sadly having not one, let alone two copies of it), and, I can believe that done right, at the right time, it would be bigger than jesus.

finding anything on cabinet records for 50p would have made my day. The compilation from a few years back is solid.

geeta, Friday, 8 July 2011 17:40 (twelve years ago) link

i had never heard of cabinet - but it was on red vinyl, german production, 1996 - so thought it was worth a wee go ! one of the guys who produced it records as Slope on Compost/Sonar Kollektiv and i've got a few of his from the early 2000's that i really like too which is nice

I wonder how I've never heard of this beauty before:

I think that's his biggest other than Promised Land?

this is another good joe smooth, esp if you like your chicago house depeche-y and melancholy

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NX4ydrlds0c

his album is worth picking up, it's cheap everywhere. pretty funny cover of "purple haze"

corpse pose (missingNO), Saturday, 9 July 2011 00:54 (twelve years ago) link

Oh man, I *love* that Joe Smooth song. Just gorgeous. The second (and last, so far!) time I was lucky enough to play at Panorama Bar, I closed my set with that. The "Percahouse Apella Mix" is a killer.

pshrbrn, Saturday, 9 July 2011 03:19 (twelve years ago) link

hi, phil. i first heard that track on your context is key mix. it works beautifully, slowed down like that.

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Saturday, 9 July 2011 04:19 (twelve years ago) link

I really wish I could post Joe Smooth's mix of Tyree Cooper's Hip House is the Style, but alas it is not on youtube. It may be my favourite hip house track; and I like few things more than I like my hip house.

EDB, Saturday, 9 July 2011 05:03 (twelve years ago) link

I totally forgot I used that in a mix...ha! Better take that one out of the future-mixtape hopper then.

Don't think I've heard that Joe Smooth remix of Tyree Cooper, must seek out! Thanks for the tip.

pshrbrn, Saturday, 9 July 2011 05:25 (twelve years ago) link

Having listened to it again after writing that post, I can confirm that it is my fav. hip-house track, and I can double confirm that I like few things more than I like my hip house. :)

moonship journey to baja, Sunday, 7 August 2011 22:37 (twelve years ago) link

I was excited to find this album on vinyl today... The name rang a bell, and I realized it was because he did my favorite track off that old Kompakt comp "Shaffelfieber":

In a word, yes.

That's a very nice tracklisting, very nice.

Is anyone up on Stickman Recs? Just heard Funk 198's Waiting For Spring and it's classic.. Always used to pass up on this stuff back in the day, why oh why.

also it sort of had a bad reputation by 95 ... they were sticking with some played out sounds pretty late

like by nowadays it's like whatever but at the time there was a definitely a whiff of stale cheese, the inevitable pre-"losing my edge" paranoia
