Managed to pick up a mint copy of that TRICKY DISCO CD single today for 50p at a car boot sale...I generally hate getting dragged around them but this time i thought I'd actually spend sometime having a look and the first thing I found was this....I had the Cassingle when it first came out (1990).. but CD is much better... Anyone else had any lucky finds recently?.. |

cylob - rewind cd single for 2 dollars on ebay. i like the dmxkrew mix a lot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

yeah, ebay is suprisingly cool when it comes to bargains, I always expected things to go for stupid money and altho a lot of stuff does seem overpriced, if you are patient and know what you want, you can pick up things at a real decent price.... I've bought quite a few things over the last few months that I expected to pay a lot more for than I did... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
the trick to ebay is to log onto at around midnight to one am. that's when most people post their auctions. you can get stuff for really cheap instantly if they fucked up and put a cheap buy it now price. thats how i got the cylob single for two bucks. |

no problem...will do so sometime this week... it's got 3 tracks on there... 1. Tricky Disco 2. Tricky Disco (Saxy Mix) 3. Tricky Disco (Inner Space Mix) I can remember it getting pretty close to the Top 10 over here...those were strange days when Warp filled the charts with Bleeps & Beeps (& the odd Clonk)...;).. WAP7... quite an early WARP release... |

god bless you jand! i remember me and my mate went halves on PIONEERS OF THE HYPNOTIC GROOVE so many years ago... man, that record kicked serious ass! fucking stacked with beautiful tracks! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, AND it had a great cover! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i won the same item (tricky disco) at ebay for 2 euros. listening to tricky disco (gto etc.) makes me sad because Lee Newman died a few years ago. she had cancer... what a loss for the electronic music scene! *sniff* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shit, i didn't know that! :( do you know more about it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it did indeed...Wish I'd never lent my copy out...;(.. (You've just reminded me to dig out my old FORGEMASTERS CD...ahh, The Track with No Name - what a classic!! them were good days...) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
man you got that right - spending my days listenin to PHGroove, SAW II, talking heads, and i remember the night before i took my first tab of acid (black microdot), listening to atom heart mother and tripping out totally - ahh to be 17 again! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
she died on the 4th of August 1995. she had a sever from of skin cancer. "I wanna be a hippie" was the last song they produced together ... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, I remember that at the time....very sad... They did a load of tracks; most of em Classics nowadays...John & Julie "Circles" on XL was one of theirs & I think G.T.O. ... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i got pioneers for 3 quid in camden - tho most of the tracks were re-released on the classics cd . gto were great - i manged to get a technohead cd from ebay for a fiver a while back .i knew g.to were john & julie etc i didnt know they did tricky disco too- i used to love that track- i got "housefly" on 12" somewhere.. oh jand i bet it was great leighs u went to , no? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, cool..I remember that Rave...The big thing at the Essex Showground, yeah?...I was there today at a Car Boot show and was thinking about that all-nighter (was that 92 or 93??...sometime around then I guess...)... Too many police there for my liking if I recall correctly which kinda put me off outdoor big raves....used to prefer raving over Colchester (TooToos I think..) or over Clacton Pier or FunnySkins at Southend Football Club...Did you ever go to any of them?... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I picked up..Cylob-Lobster Tracks for NZ$5..new mint and all..that's about $2.50 US Euro etc... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pure by GTO & tricky disco are all time classics :) |

i found a new copy of ae's basscadet ep...is this rare? ive never seen it around before.. also found push button objects' dirty dozen in the "misc." rack of the electronic section in a local store yesterday |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I wouldn't mind knowing how rare that BassCadet EP is also.... I got it when it first came out and didn't like it that much (AE have def grown on me over the years...didn't rate em much with the first 2 albums tho...)... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is it the basscadet 10" box set? as it has a track that doesn't appear on the cd used to have tricky disco 12" when i was about 13(?) i do beleive theres a remix 12" as well? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Technohead?! They were fucking awful if I remember correctly. Picked up a Rephlex 12" from '97 by Tim someone. It has no tracklisting or cover, so anyone who's got it I'd appreciate a tracklist/info. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I really wondered what was going on with that "I wanna be a hippy" song...not the best thing to have as your last release really but I guess they planned it as a little fun gabba song that somehow crossed over.... The rephlex one sounds like "Like a TIM"...that's the only tim on rephlex I can thing of... check the rephlex disco at .... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Who were Technohead? I much prefered the Smurfs 'I Wanna Little Puppy'. Cheers, it is Like A Tim. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Technohead were Lee Newman and Michael Wells... also known as GTO, John & Julie, Tricky Disco & loads others... There's a good GTO page at ... if you wanna know anymore... from that site "All said and done, together the duo released (to my count) 10 albums and 47 singles/E.P.s, with Michael releasing a further 3 albums, and 9 singles since Lee's death. ".... |

I've got the 12" Vinyl version I inherited from my brother. Brilliant stuff! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I remember the video being on "the chart show" it was all stop motion black and white film of clockwork toys. |
||||||||

ah i used to go to "mindwarp" in colchester back then - the big rave at the essex showground was when i first got stoned . i once saw power pill on cd for a pound at the boot fair there and didnt end up getting it-argh! foolish me clacton was where dj force played if i remeber right . there were gonna be more raves at great leighs but the wankers who did the first one put a clause in that no-one else could hold one for 10 years in the small print - thats the rumour i heard |

Chaos ad. I think it was lucky |
||||||||
|
|

I gotta get my hands on Black Dog Productions-Bytes. That release is one of my favorites on Warp. |
||||||||
|

Hi Jand- I used to go to Too-toos (Frating, also a housing estate now!)and visited the Barn a handful of times, plus a few trips to the Berwick Manor.. plus went to that Rave at the showground in Gt Leighs, summer of '91 it was, and yes, loadsa filth. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha yeah my AUNT (out of all people!!!) used to be a massive Warp fan around the time LFO got uber-big. She just gave me the Tricky Disco 12", two LFO 12"s (one of them being that fake Brainstorm one) and some other stuff includin a worn down amateur dub white label thing that's bloody hilarious to listen to. |
||||||||

my mate gave me tricky disco wap7r 12" for my birthday! 2 weeks a go i bought a n/m copy of b1204 green 12" for £40 and got kid unknown wap20 for freeee. |
||||||||
|
|

|

I've been on a vinyl buying crusade for the last few weeks and despite spending over £300 on records, i've managed to get some real bargains as well as some massive tunes, which i've always wanted to buy. I always keep my hand (or ear) on the pulse looking for a bar gin. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
whats your fav? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Buying a still-sealed copy of from a very nice man down south for £10. The fact it existed in this condition (not the mention the price) is a miracle. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wow your not going to open it.... are you? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I already have. Music is to be listened to, not to be looked at! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Agreed!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
On the warp tip, I recently found a record by a Kid unknown for 99p in oxfam. It is in very good condition if I remember rightly. I really don't anything about it. It isn't bad but it isn't a classic. |
