Let's Love


Keeping it short today...I am really feeling this at the moment.


And this too, although it's been around a bit longer


Last off I've got to say that although the new stuff from Lone isn't necessarily a massive step forward from his work last year, i'm really feeling it. The R&S vinyl release is a great one for the collector. One of the vinyl's comes as see-through acetate.


Here is another Lone bit, up for Download. This one is the remix of Golden Girls. It's got that same dreamlike rave vibe that all Lone tracks seem to hold.

Introducing - Youandewan

Those of you who purchased or have listened to Midland's superb Bring Joy EP, will have found it hard to not hear the Youandewan remix.

It is a first class 11 minute long beast of a remix. An impressive journey of snappy house snare drums, muffled kicks and tinny hight hats paired with subtly stifled synths and glimmering vocals.


Admittedly a few months back I was sent a Youandewan track and it was lost in the maelstrom of emails that any present day journalism student receives. But I am finally getting round to posting that very tune.

With similar drum styles and patterns as the Midland remix it's another beauty. Sauntering along at a perfect 120bpm. I love this track because it reminds me of Watergate club in Berlin, the residents would start off the night playing slow and subtle tracks like this before smashing it later on.


The Leeds based producer has been receiving support from some big names, here's Skream playing one of hisdubstep influenced tracks on Rinse FM


Links to his Souncloud and to his Facebook so you can stay in the loop

Enjoy, I have been

Ariel - Midland Remix

A free Midland remix is always worth talking about, and thanks to Fact Magazine here we have one. Although I feel it's not his strongest to date, this mix of Ariel by Stateless still breathes out the warm and ambient sound that the young Leeds based producer has become notorious for creating. As i've said before definitely one to keep an eye on. What with the remixes of Caribou and Boards of Canda, the collaboration with Ramadanman and the excellent Change the Game EP, it looks like he's going to have a big 2011...

Pelski Presents @ Counter Culture

I have not been posting a lot recently. The lack of internet at my flat and the rigours of the 3rd year of university have made it hard to update regularly.

Nevertheless, I have to turn your attention towards this event. It is not to be missed. A stellar line up in an amazing venue just south of the river. Jackmode, the Berlin based booking and management agency have teamed up the Pelski boys to create a night of tribal infused house mayhem.

Room 1: Jackmode
Christian Martin (Turbo / Dirtybird)
Zombie Disco Squad (Made To Play)
Solo(Deadfish)

Room 2: Pelski Presents
Round Table Knights (Made To Play / Dirtybird)
Midland (Aus / Phonica)
Mr Sold Gold & Park Ranger (Trouble Vision)

Booking a ticket in advance would be very wise as the queue will be of the large variety. Here is a link to the Resident Advisor page.

To get a snippet of a taste of what is to be expected from the dj's on the night. Here is Midland's fantastic remix of Caribou and an exclusive mix by the Round Table Knights

Midland Fact Mix

Midland is going to blow up at the tail end of this year I feel. A friend and collaborator of Ramadanman, there has already been notable success earlier on in the year when the two released Your Words Matters on AUS. Midland himself then released Play the Game on Phonica Records a brilliant four track ep which really bored out his own sound. Originally he started out dj-ing Drum and Bass around Leeds, but after a self imposed i-pod ban during a holiday he came back to concentrate on making slower music.

He makes brilliant house and techno often with a rigid beat accompanied by vocal samples and snippets. Maybe corresponding to living with Ramadanman or just because of a good knowledge and love of music, there is a striking influence on his music from the deeper, more experimental forms of dubstep.

This mix done for Fact Magazine is bursting full of unreleased goodies from the man himself, including beautiful re workings of Boards of Canada and Caribou. All together a fantastic mix of house, techno and downtempo....he is definitely one to watch out for

Isn't It Ironic How All You Want To Do Is Smoke Chronic


Now, for some house music from all ends of the spectrum. Chicago influenced deep house, tech house and disco house this post is just serving to indicate the variety that is out there at the moment....

Nice to see Ramadanman team up with his mate Midland to make this bouncy track

Ramadanman & Midland - Your Words Matter

Doc Daneeka is one to watch for 2010. His remixes have been getting him much acclaim. This one is as bouncy and soulful as the others before it

GattoViola - Backstabbin Angie For A Ten Bag (Doc Daneeka Edit)

Loving the vocals on this one from Argentine Christian Malloni, remixed by Swiss tech houser Loko

Christian Malloni - Agua Ardiente (Loko Remix)

Kink is Bulgaria's answer to a massive black house pioneer from Chicago, here is his remix of German house wizards the Lovebirds, check out the original mix, it's a beaut

Lovebirds - My Man (Kink Remix)

Lovely female voice in this tidy disco track

Flight Facilities - Crave You (Bxentric Remix)

enjoy
