does anyone else think that this label hasnt been on form
recently? havent enjoyed much in the last few years apart
from Jaga Jazzist's What We Must and Loka's Fire Shepards.

I like Homelife a lot, especially Guru Man Hubcap Lady, but
I haven't really listened to too much else from them
recently. I will take your word for it.

Agreed. I remember a time where I would happily buy any
ninja tune release I came across, without hearing it first,
as I had never had a bad record from them. Then I got Ty's
"Upward" and whilst it's not bad, there's one good track and
the rest are all average and I'd not of bought it, had I
heard it first.

More and more of the new stuff no longer interests me and
even Coldcut's output isn't as good as their old material.

The new Bonobo's all right, and the Daedelus record is
decent, if a little amateur. But yeah I miss the day's when
they'd come out with something as classy as Skalpel's first
album or Rainstick Orchestra.

maybe it has something to do with you turning 16 and not
liking this childish stuff anymore.

Word. I listened to lots'a NT and also Mo Wax before getting
into Warp. Now I never check out what they can offer.

Fuck, you prefer Warp over Ninja Tune and Mo' Wax?

Remind me not to come to your house party.

Ninja Tune and Mo'Wax, the two worst labels ever.

I hope this is licenced!

I had a pic of this on the trainer's jackets when I went to
a Cage Rage show a while back, but I can't find it so
this'll have to do...

You are just plain wrong, Swears. Doc Oc, Shadow, DJ Food,
Coldcut? Come on... and Pneumonia is a classic...

Luke Vibert's remix of Atomic Moog 2000 is one of the most
perfect thing's I've ever heard. That is, if he did the
Post-Nuclear Afterlife Lounge mix... my mind's a bit hazy at
the mo'.

I like a lot of their releases but I got to a point where I
just didnt want any more because it was all a bit the same.
Amon Tobin is great, Scruff's albums are all really good...
Bonobo... Porcini...Skalpel... probably some other nice
folks... is Blockhead on ninja tune? yeah theres a shit load
of boring artists on their though, I have a couple of Ninja
Tune compilations and theyre just dull

Mmm... checking out this thread proper I can understand the
vibe. Mo Wax fell off when they released Rabbit in Your
Headlights and Be There as singles... Ninja Tune did some
amazing stuff but I was never hugely into em. I loved Wall
of Sound but when Les Rhythmes Digitales got too 80's and
Props did a track with Shirley Bassey... just plain wrong.
Although I like the Make the Face by Loose Cannons and
that's pretty camp. Although Kaiser Saucy stole one of my
nicknames, bastard.
