Whatever I've done...(Barrel of a gun, Depeche mode, Underworld)

When theyve all gone home... (M.Coupe)

Yes... Je sais.. this is old but after a long few days travelling this was a good way to end it... Well done Spain.. slight commiserations to Portugal, but I don;t think Ronaldos hair product and heaven staring was going to project that team to a semi final (no Christiano you couldn't do it all by yourself as god given as you might think you are)...

Anyway thought I might say hello and pop in this oldie but goodie.. I remember hearing Peter Tong play this a long long while back, and in my misguided stupidty thinking a phat beat would drop and we would all truck off into a dance heaven.... NO!.... thank God it didn't!... This Underworld remix became one of my most favorite Depeche Mode remixes ever (works anywhwere anytime). Barrel of a gun Soft remix!!!

Not gonna say too much more, but this has worked at 35 thousand feet half way round the world (havin a sresss) and at 1 foot (no stress) with the sea washing at my feet looking at the Southern Cross.....


Oh and Ok heres a Depeche Hardfloor mix of 'It no good' that will re-awake you from that wonderful funk, But not too much to know it wasn't worth it......

Deep House is the new Deep House

Hey Peops hope your ok, well wanna say all is good, and house music seems to be healthy. The are lots of artists out there embracing old skool synths bleeps beeps and general squelchyness. Obviously globally there's still the sh$t commercial lets sample anything or ya X factor or whatever genus you have in your hood... I'm adding to house in my own way although have wandered off on a Deeper more purer house angle of late, but I think thats just what you do as a person over time. Interestingly read a post on a Yahoo answer for who are the best Deep house artists and the answerer bless had know idea and was wandering into allsorts of upfront stuff.. ouch..

 I'm assuming he or she was young and hasn't discovered Chicago or NY ( maters at work gods!) old skool we didnt have Cubase or logic just MS 20s, Moogs, Junos and 808's etc, and it made me think that you cant really say who are Deep House purists in truth, as I think if you write dance music and House then at some point you will do a no frills simplistic house track or remix, or dub, stripped down Ra ra ra, that in its essence is deep, you design it around a beat pattern that develops and progresses with a B-line and drop the occasional stab of fat chords that may be soft, carrying swirling huge waves of moodyness that just make you nod and whole body groove (cant you tell I'm listening to a track as I write!)Oh and emotive, chords, maybe a vocal or sample that lets the track wash over you...

Hey I dunno thats how I see deep house and aslong as it has a beat that keeps you snuggled up in it and doesn't make you jump to attention and go 'Oi what was that.. grr ' then its doin its job.. Heres two to let you go there... Probably.. well actually the first is my favourite Deep House track Global Communication - The Way fat as a 63 stone teenager!! .. old but Still a gorgeous track.... easily one of the best!!! Second is newerish Claude Von Stroke - Who's Afraid Of Detroit... and hes a F@@kin legend!!! ..

Oh.. My.. Days.... its been...since I....

Hey hope your all well,

Well The worlds going a bit mental. all blogs carry on as if nothing is wrong with the world.. We have Libiya.. Syria.. Iran.. austerity.. as in we dont send money but everyone that has cash does. Raa Raa raa..

Any hoo not posted for a while. Music has been awesome this year, at least the creative juices are still flowing.. Keep an weather eye on Manchester mininmal funky oldskool deep breakerage. Not that you dont  now, but Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs are essentially gonna be the next big ting.. This is not a 'oh lookee here' as they have been remixing their butts off, (Friendlys hawaiian) but they are excellent and kinda straddle a house electronic melodic listenee dancee 'I likee' genre  thats been missing. They are actually a band in there own right  (yeah a singer too) kinda blossoming from Friendly Fires, Fenech Soler, and Phoenix (old).. 'Frenchish..'  to sorta becoming all they are in one fell swoop. The album drops 7th of May this year.. One to have on the Iphone, Android etc and god bless all that sails in her..

Any way thought I'd give yer a mix that you can DL of all thats new ISH

Bisous et enjoi

Off to never never land... Oh this is really....

Evening, morning, afternoon, you know what I couldnt give a monkees, but if you like house, dance or whatever (as I do massively), if you dont like this then dont even bother listening to music as you just wont get it from 'BEETH' hoven  (american accent) to Puccini to our Aboriginal pals. Sorry I'm havin a little brain'ism' but 'Here' have a bit of Metallica..  'Enter Sandman'..... If you dont know or... you have never been to a gig of 'em' then sorry but you need this in your Sandwich of a music scape life.. at least for reference..... Fuck the beatles!!! (if you want me to post the liverpudlians THEN do one!) end of!!!

From Disco to Dissscooo

photo: coupe

Oh ok. this is more of a rediscovery than an epihany, but was trawling through some oldish tracks and new old tracks and went..'hold on mate!' thats where you got that from (Duh!!!). Both tracks hold up as real beauties. Firstly, 'From Disco to Disco' by Rthymes Digitales (Thin White Duke, Zoot Woman, Jacques lu Cont) the kinda remake mix 'ish'  and then the 'Original' as in vocal sample from 'Disco to Disco' Whirlpool Productions which is a juicy disco excursion into true disconess from, a place close to my heart.. Germany, Did see a comment saying the Whrlpool one was Shite.. Well 'do one' you purist.. Do you actually dance when you party? Hmmm?.....I say 'But No' this is 'Ace' its a laff.. its even takin the piss outta itself as you listen, but you still wanna listen, and whilst on a flight to Koln and puttin it on reee-peat whilst transferin from plane to train and the graffiti and germanic vistas rollin buy I was gee'd up to funk disco n groove to that fair city and party as a Jedi knight (dont ask!). Anyway heres both.

Well well well, nice to be back!!

Hope your all well (Not Orwell!) although seeing a bit of that type of future 'scriptaage' (Eygpt, Libya, Tunise) happening as we speak with the world (well the people of) seeing their own potential and en masse deciding they want it need it and deserve it. Well I say more power to!!! I don't know if we could do that in the UK maybe more subtley, but apparently we have a democratic society, well at least on hold till one can vote again after 5 years.. mmmm

Anyhoo. This is an old mix but a good mix.. Suddenly its all de rigueur, le mode, the thang, the hotest new ticket in town (where have you been, 'Not Paris then' I here you cry).. according to Rad-deeo (in a french accent) Une. Well done for being... mmm.. let me think.... 2 or 3 years out of touch and just pandering to the Tip-Topshop massiff!!!.....

Well we are at that Ashes time again for those of you not aware....its a... Playgroup... sorry...

Well haven't posted for a while but that does not mean that I don't pay attention... etc... I do,do, other things like shooting photos for books, doing designs for other stuff, doing music for other things.... But I do get grief from ny Aussie cousins (well or cousin... Little Cuz)... and we are at the Ashes again. (best country in the world).

I apologise to my American Pals as its as long winded and confusing as your big baseball series, but we are now in a battle with the Aussies to potentially regain the Ashes (See Google cricket ashes etc). Well here's a massive album. I 'again' shouldn't give it but these things don't arrive on the old T'interweb too much and if you can get it via me then I'm glad you do. To those who decide its abuse I am merely promoting the quality and not taking away the fact you should gleen beans from this (as I give my work away for pleasure alone regardless the fact I could earn). Its all about people enjoying your toons. 

Well heres Playgroup - Playgroup. An Utterly awesome french massive Electronic funk album.if not old, sort of difficult to get, if you can go and buy please do, It deserves it! He deserves.. A little bit seminal and all that.. Funny as music now (Dance !? House!? Electronic!? Dub step etc) is going 'back' or in that direction.... How old am I. I just dont know anymore as my finger seems to be constantly wandering correctly or not on the pulse.. If this is your Playgroup first time.. well lucky lucky you, if coming back and 'oh I forgot about that one' then Tip Top.... to you both.. Download.. then please purchase as its so well worth it.....

Parfois, il faut remonter à aller de l'avant

The Sun had just gone down in a sky that had a vignette from a rich prussian blue to a golden buttercup yellow that still peirced the eye, I looked up into the deep dark blue and saw the first twinkling eyes of space. As they jittered and sparkled like they have for millenia. 'Theres no way we are alone' I thought 'someone else out there must love this as much as I do'.

Anyhoo more old skool.. Yep I said more old skool. Now these are classics, easy to get but they're happy choons that just.. well, make you happy... So go on get em n turn em up.

As the heat from the sun carresses your face gently hinting to whats to come that cold tang in a oxygen rich air with sweet scents from the grass and the trees mixed with that gamey odour of the woods. you notice the new shoots innocently sprouting up from leafy brown earth in a sort of primeordeal dance which only they know the steps to. Your thoughts wander in the cold blue sky, spring is here... Summer wont be long.

Anyhoo, heres a couple of gems. These feel timely and are just good. An absolute rare as rockin horse shizzle classic from Moodymann - Mahoganny Brown, house funk off beat crackerjack. It just skips you along. Then a Kenlou (Kenny Dope, Louie Vega) remix of The Bucketheads - Got myself together. I think they kinda go well together. This has a nice repetitive funkness with a sharp slapassness sassyness. Not enough of this stuff of late. Think I will be postin more old skool than nu so keep a weather eye.
