They've done some cool stuff in their time...you can't
really go wrong with anything they've released...(Well, as
long as you like sample based stuff & love spotting sources
etc.) When it comes to Breaks, there aren't many people who
know more than this duo....

Anyone ever heard some of the stuff they did with
Steinski?...(He was like the originator of that cutup
collage thing)

And the Mixmaster Morris Remix of Coldcuts "Autumn Leaves"
is possibly one of the beautiful tracks ever heard.....A
spring dawn captured on CD...

(I'm off to SoulSeek to track down some
Steinski....mmmmmmmmmmmm).. :)

Yeah that track is pretty cool .. seems to me tho that their
album releases are a bit hit n miss tho ?

I see that they're just re-issued the legendary Journeys by
DJ mix album. Does anyone have this? Is it worth getting?
Who's on it?

Jonsey: That album is seminal. There is all kinds of stuff
from dub through to Hawtin. I think I kind of have an idea
of your taste and you would like it.

JAND: Lessons 123...fucking amazing shit. Have you heard"hey
kinds"?

with DJ krush. They mixed ninja tune catalogue on one disc
and he did it on the other. excellent shit and awesome
mixing.

BTW, jonesy, I'm writing a reply to yor mail right now.
patience.

I heard his stuff from a pirate KISS NY tape way back....hit
me really hard...

And it still stands up so well...

Have you got "The Motorcade sped on".....his piece about
JFK...came as a 7 inch free with the NME but is on
soulseek...

top notch stuff....

I fuckin love Coldcut!

I saw them play at Newcastle Uni about 3 years ago -
totally, totally class. The VJing was outstanding. To be
honest, no live show I've been to since has really been
fully enjoyable because I've always felt as though something
was missing - VJs!

The Journeys by DJ album is absolutely class - a really
fucking good and eclectic mix. Definitely buy it.

And my favourite hip-hop tune ever: Eric B and Rakim's Paid
in Full (Coldcut remix) - download it now!

I've wanted to know for a while now: in More Beats and
Pieces, there's a bit in it somewhere where there's this
sample of a bird making a squawking sound (it's a cuckoo in
a cuckoo clock in the video), and the melody kind of
metamorphoses into a synth line. I'm sure the melody is
sampled on an old hiphop tune. A very similar line is used
in KRS One's Step Into a World, but I'm sure it's from
something much older.

What is it?

In fact, this has bothered me for so long that I'm going to
have to start a new thread about it.

Who thought they'd go from Lisa Stansfield and Yazz to their
current incarnation. Anyone dig their work with these lovely
pop singers?

IS it the funky penguin?

That riff is the shitniz! You have put it inot my head now
you rlittle tyke.
Du dar du..du dah dah dah

Weird one that. They did YAzz and stuff even after they had
underground success. I think they must have seen the dollar
bills. Then they got burned and have had a really anti big
label ethos ever since.



 

offline manicminer from Paris (France) on 2002-05-29 16:36 [#00240848]
Points: 1423 Status: Lurker



Quernstone: Is the Funky Penguin the name of an actual track
then, and if so who's it by?

Yeah man, the Yazz stuff was pretty dire. Mind you, People
Move On wasn't too bad. Come to think of it, neither was
Doctorin' the House. Quite good.

I'll have a rumage through my records when I get back home.
I'll tell you more if I get any info.

If you read the booklet that came with Xen Cuts it says they
released a single that featured the lovely Mel Blatt from
All Saints.

Points: 6650 Status: Lurker



I should add that it wasn't by them. I mean that they
released it on their label. Sorry, I could have unpicked a
career or two there ha, ha.

Thanks Quernstone.

What was the name of the single Jonesy?

Actually on second thought which are the best (fuck I sound
like my granny) I will check out a few hip hop sites first.
I can't wait that long.

Erm. Mark 1 I think. I'll tell you tomorrow. Have I found a
fellow All Saints fan? Come on, own up.

Well, to be honest, as far as pop girl-groups and stuff go,
they're not THAT bad really, are they? They're better than
the Spice Girls.

And they're certainly better than Greece's entry into
Eurovision - so bad it was the funniest thing I've
seen/heard in ages. Go to www.eurovision.tv and then to
"Contestants" to check it out.

I really like them. And not in some studenty-twatty-ironic
way. She did a single with a hip hop band who's name escapes
me at this minute. It was really good and not that long ago.

Aye, they're OK. Not too bad at all, really.

Check out that Eurovision thing though. It's so funny.
