  West African Heat

  07.22.08 | Permalink | 4 Comments

  First off, apologies for being so quiet recently, but a recent move has kept me away from the decks and GTA4 has kept me from doing anything remotely constructive for the last month or so

  Anyway, this is a belated audio companion to my earlier post on the recent series of excellent compilations on […]

  Some Jams I Am Feeling Right Now

  07.15.08 | Permalink | 6 Comments

  Having not one but two dancey gigs in the same weekend was pretty nice, especially since the past bunch of sets I have played were more like bars where I was playing lots of other types of records. I got to trot out a bunch of different things that I had either never played before, […]

  On and On and On and On…..

  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 […]

  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 […]

  LOSING SIGHT OF WHAT’S IMPORTANT

  Joy is not in things; it is in us. Richard Wagner
  Some of you may remember me. I was a contributor to ISM and three of my posts still survive. Some personal problems I have experienced of late have had some catastrophic results, including the destruction of the majority of my record collection. This, however, in […]

  A few more bits n’ bobs

  06.22.08 | Permalink | 4 Comments

  Along with those disco edits mentioned in my last post I’ve picked up a nice few varied slabs in the last couple of weeks, and with a slow night at work I thought I may as well share a few.
  Sean Deason and his label Matrix is someone/thing I’ve been aware of for quite some time, […]

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

  06.20.08 | Permalink | 10 Comments

  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

  06.17.08 | Permalink | 6 Comments

  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:

  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, […]
