  On and On and On and On…..

  07.08.08 | Permalink | 13 Comments

  I have had a couple good days at the local digging spot in the last week or so.
  First up was the day I found the record pictured above, Mach’s “On And On”, one of the records that was somehow involved in the birth of house music. Check the discogs link for a short version of […]

  Bye bye CBS

  07.07.08 | Permalink | 13 Comments

  Just a quicky for anyone not already aware, but the mighty Cybernetic Broadcasting System closed shop today. I-f’s announcement can be read here. It seems it just wasn’t viable for them to keep the station going, which is a sad example of how we can take sites like this for granted. But they don’t run […]

  Honestly, I almost feel guilty writing these but sometimes this is what is called for.
  First up, next week is the debut of the new monthly event I am doing with my man Eric Justin, No Way Back:

  Brought to you by this here blog and Pittsburgh House Underground, No Way Back will be taking place at […]

  Planet E: The Downward Spiral

  06.30.08 | Permalink | 19 Comments

  It truly pains me to say it, but Planet E has almost completely fallen off. I only realized just now how many releases I have skipped buying (all of the Saunderson rmxs, Attias, Sebastian San, Jona, the new Buttrich record, and even the underwhelming Kenny Larkin 12″) or regretted buying (Lazy Fat People, first Buttrich […]

  Meo & Daniele @ Les Cigales

  06.25.08 | Permalink | 4 Comments

  A lot is talked about certain Italian discos during the late 70s and early 80s, Cosmic (with DJs Daniele Baldelli and TBC) and Typhoon (with DJ Beppe Loda) being the most well known. They were well known for playing a style called Afro, which starts at New York Disco as a reference point but diversifies […]

  Sure we can clean it up in the (re)edit

  I’m not sure if it’s just by coincidence that I’m buying more of them at the moment, but there seems to be a resurgence in the disco re-edit in the last couple of years. Maybe it’s the recent rise in popularity in all things cosmic or maybe I just didn’t notice it before. […]

  Some Recent Digging and Some New Things, Too

  I haven’t been giving very consistent reports on my local digging, not for any good reason either. This past weekend though, I had a really nice selection of records so here goes a little round up of those as well as some new things doing the rounds:

  Quick Friday Update

  06.06.08 | Permalink | 2 Comments

  I’ve been lazy about doing basically anything for the past week, lazy enough that I almost feel bad about it. The doctor checked out my knee the other day, he said I likely have a slightly torn meniscus that shouldn’t need operated on unless it gives me great pain and irritation, which it hasn’t for […]

  C’mon, c’mon, darling…

  As I’ve only recently exited the world of the pauper student I have still yet to avail of the wonders of on-line shopping – I still await my first credit card – but obviously I still spend a lot of time on the net listening to new music. The last couple of sessions on line, […]
