>Tony Allen - Moyege - Mark Ernestus Mixes >Nice slow disco dub mixes by Mark Ernestus. Nowt too ground breaking but >worth a check. The Dub mix is chiming with the silly hot weather here in >the UK at the mo :)
listened the clips on rh, thought it was boring :P >Kai Alce - Corner Manuvers - Real Soon >Didn't sound that good in the shop but picked it up thinking it would >sound nice at home. And it does, the "Corner..." track is the one for >me, in the vein of Theo/KDJ, bassy and minimal but still with soul. The >other side is nice but leans more to that afrohouse vibe perhaps. Still >good but the other side is better imo i think it's very understated like all of kai's work, it's greatness probably dawns on you gradually...from the clips i really like both sides...really love the bassy minimal approach and nice and simply cool-feeling keys on top, great stuff for hot weather...i really love his beats, no one else makes em like that (except, a little bit our own kamal stoddard...makes sense since they are friends and both from atl) >Anyone else picked anything up that's cool recently? havent picked em up yet but my picks from new stuff this past week were mark du mosch on keynote -- really love the warm housey track on the a-side! the disco-y stuff is less original but also very nice and warm and smooth and not far off from viewlexx etc booka shade in white rooms on get physical -- just like the melody/feeling in the original, dancefloor melancholy...and shinedoe's remix sounds a bit nuts (out of key) but i like it, sounding like old detroit stuff a bit.. nothing else grabbed me, except for the first round of r&s represses (tronikhouse, model 500, dave angel, a.r.t.) when is UR gonna play in north carolina for peanuts (the actual nuts...they grow here and virginia)...pffff they ain't underground
