This is a good read

Vorsprung durch Techno

The tone of this reminds me of a fella I knew who went to see Kraftwerk in Glasgow about 15 years ago. He said he was standing in a hall of middle aged men except for two young local ravers close by, who were clearly geared up and completely unimpressed - one turned to the other and said “see if these c-nts are supposed to be the godfaithers a’ dance, how come nae c-nt’s dancing?” :laugh2:

Great anecdote Duke, but as we all know, like all good chess players and ageing footballers, the next five (dance) moves will be in their head!

Wake up sleepy thread!

Ive always been a massive fan of the mix-tape, still am, i don't buy albums anymore just compose masses of digital mix-tapes/playlists but i'm not getting much inspiration in this desert ;) whatever the thread fundamentals are..lets just post some tunes which are floating around our heads, c'mon don't be shy, we're not music snobs.

I downloaded that^ United Future tune at the weekend which Maynard posted above, its a beauty!

Cheers Neal, it’s a belter isn’t it. I really like UFO but that KoT remix is the best version of Flying Saucer I’ve heard.

Last week I received the Blue Note Reimagined album I preordered months ago. I’m a big fan of St Germain and the instant standout track for me is Jorja Smith’s cover version of their wonderful ‘Rose Rouge’.

^that blue note re:imagined is a banger! 

Got myself the special herbs and spices boxset by mf doom, with special 7“, yesterday. 

Superhappy to finally have that!

those are some warm lush tracks above - not quite as lush but similarly unloud. I cant remember where I found this but refound it recently

I’ll check that out JW.

I love Minnie Riperton’s version of ‘Les Fleurs’ but have been listening to the Ramsey Lewis (original, I think) one quite a bit lately.

Whoop whoop @81611

Here’s some grotty footage (of a mates) from the last gig I went to before it all went tits up. Grand Magus from Sweden. 13 March, ten days before the U.K. lockdown. Feels a lifetime ago. With the benefit of hindsight, and with how numbers spiked so soon afterwards, it feels pretty daft being in amongst this.

This song is a belter and it’s what they invariably finish their set on. Always gets the crowd going.

@unders Love it!! Can’t wait for those live gigs again...when it’s safe of course.

Here’s a clip of the last show I saw before lockdown 2/22/20. John Brannon of Negative Approach. Not everyone’s cup but his band  was a pioneer of hard core punk outside of NY and LA in the US.  

I couldn’t believe how fucking still the crowd was.. this clip was about 2 mins before my old ass started the mosh. No shit, he personally thanked me for it when the show was over. 

Another vid from him back in the day.

 

 

 

He’s old as fuck but still has that energy!

Yep great minds indeed, exactly the same link :-)  It's one of those timeless tracks that you never grow tired of, remember when I'd hear it out I'd never want it to stop.

well if we're posting dance classics then does this still get some of you? - the piano drop on this still brings happiness tears to my eyes when it kicks in

here's some i've been playing at work when i get tired of listening to the same two podcasts. really digging the old rave tracks and stories people are sharing!!

That’s a very nice selection @chicote   
wasnt sure what that first one would be like with that picture - he looks so slick

@freshwater - I never knew what that Mental Qube track was called - so cheers  for that:smile:
