Hey, what do you know haha. I definitely always liked it (to a degree), but I'll admit it's only really hit me properly in the last 2-3 weeks |
Deviant.
07.31.12 | "well it's got the 808 drums, stuttering samples and similar sub bass"
Drums, vocals and bass. That's how Skrillex interpreted dubstep. Don't be Skrillex |
Deviant.
07.31.12 | You're really just kind of running on fumes these days Riff. Why don't you take a few days off and gather some new material hmm? |
omnipanzer
07.31.12 | Thanks for the list Dev.
Some of these just aren't my thing and seem a ted middle of the road. Not bad but nothing innovative.
There are a few I'm interested in though:
Love "Sunshine Girls" so I'll probably get 9
10 seems cool
is the sample for 11 supposed to be Burial?
12 sounds really good
and then I got bored after 15... list bookmarked for future discovery. |
TMobotron
07.31.12 | Sweet. Gonna have to get AMUS, Kahn and that DjRum release.
Also: That Jacques Green video is so damn cool, and Bok Bok's new release and that Terror Danjah single both sound big. |

Good point, better stock up on cheetos and patiently wait
"i will try and work my way through this list, but is there anything particularly emotional, depressing, or melancholy here?"
DjRum, though it's not really depressing. People tend to describe his music as a soundtrack to a movie that hasn't been made yet, so take that as something of an indicator
"that Disclosure vid...oh my god"
Every time my girl decides to have a "ladies night" I always imagine this is what she means. Of course that isn't the case, but one can dream |

Deviant.
07.31.12 | "You mean Foreign Beggars' actual LP's? I love them all."
Wasn't too much of a fan of their later stuff, but their early releases were solid. Check out Wiley (it's kind of an obvious rec, but if you haven't listened/heard of him before he'll be up your alley)

TMobotron
08.01.12 | Listened to Kahn, DjRum, and AMUS today. Loved them all. The only thing I'd heard by Kahn before was his single Illy/Tehran. Illy is such a sweet thumping dubstep track, I was kind of surprised by the direction of the new release but enjoyed it all the same.
Oh I listened to that Oneman mix at work today too. Whole thing was sweet, but that Nu-Birth song "Anytime" on it was unreal. When those horns hit it took all my restraint not to get up at my desk and just start dancin away. Gonna grab a few more of these for tomorrow. |
Deviant.
08.01.12 | Yeah, it just comes out of nowhere. I knew like 90% of the tracks on the mix already, but he still manages to surprise you the way he implements them and works them into the fold. You should grab his Rinse mix as well |

I may need to bother you for a link to that DjRum Mountains EP at some point too (that is, if you're still willing to bend the rules as staff?). Also, finally got my long distance open water worker vinyl in the mail, gonna see about that 3 very soon. |
TMobotron
08.01.12 | Oh and I still cannot get enough of that Distance A-side. |
Deviant.
08.01.12 | Haha, I obviously still like it to a degree, but like I said to you earlier I just think it's really lacking in energy and not up to his usual standard |
TMobotron
08.01.12 | Oh of course, I know you still dig it to an extent. I've been holding out since my first listen of a rip though so I'm pretty stoked because new blawan is always interesting even at its worst. |
Deviant.
08.01.12 | I just love how big room What You Do With What You Have is, such an epic tune |
Calculate
08.01.12 | did you guys like sunklofree |
TMobotron
08.01.12 | Yeah What You Do is huge, I'm a really big fan of Shader as well - might be my favorite of his. |
Deviant.
08.01.12 | It's not J & B's best work, but Pearson added some nice groove into the mix
Speaking of Blawan, I still reckon he's dropped the best mix in Fact's series. It just pisses me off how there's no tracklist. I'm pretty good with recognizing stuff, but I can only pick up a handful of tracks on there |
TMobotron
08.01.12 | Yeah I really dig that too, a lot of acidy vibes. I was going by this: http://www.factmag.com/2012/05/17/kick-drum-download-blawans-most-recent-boiler-room-set/ when I listened to it, not sure how accurate it is but it pointed me in the right direction on more than a few tracks. |
Deviant.
08.01.12 | Oh no I meant his actual mix for FACT. This one:
http://soundcloud.com/jonnythirteentimes/fact-mix-230-blawan |
TMobotron
08.01.12 | Oh right yeah. IDK how I mixed those up, but yeah I've heard that one too, though I don't know a tracklist for that one. There's a bit of crossover between the two, but yeah I hate mixes that don't have tracklists. I guess I just don't get the point. |
Deviant.
08.01.12 | "I guess I just don't get the point."
I kinda get it, the whole anonymity of the thing (not in a Burial kind of way though), and just keeping everything all white label and on dubplates until shit gets released and you're like "oh shit, that song". But yeah it's annoying because I wanna keep the damn thing but I refuse to have single files for mixes, gotta separate them up |
TMobotron
08.01.12 | Yeah I guess I get that mindset. I'm not opposed to a few tracks listed as ??? in a mix though. But it's never a huge deal. It is damn frustrating though when you hear an absolutely killer track in a mix and can't get an ID on it. I guess it's part of the game. |
Deviant.
08.01.12 | That mix has one of the best openings ever as well |
Deviant.
08.01.12 | Good thing that it's one of the few tracks I do recognize |
TMobotron
08.01.12 | Haha yeah I really love that intro. What is the track? I kind of assumed it was just a vocal sample on top of a track. |

08.03.12 | Let me know what you think Stranger. Don't get me wrong, it's not a terrible release by any means. But like I said in the list, it's just kinda amateurish, like an artist's first tunes after picking up whatever production software he could afford |

StrangerofSorts
08.04.12 | I quite like it (like 3/5) but it's hard to shake off the feeling that it's a little undeveloped. |
TMobotron
08.04.12 | Haven't gotten around to listening to any of the other things I've got lined up, but I finally gave my blawan physical a proper listen.
Yeah, it rules :) |
Deviant.
08.05.12 | Yeah I'm finally starting to warm up to it as well. I like it when he brings the whole boiler room vibe into his tracks, but I know he has the potential to balance the line between that murky industrial vibe and full on anthem bangers and he needs to realise it |
TMobotron
08.05.12 | Awesome, I really do think it's up to his standard. I'm not sure I know what you mean with the distinction there though. Which direction do you think he's more leaning towards between the two that's putting off the balance?
I may be a little biased just because of how much I've loved all his previous releases, but honestly I have no complaints about where he's going with any of his productions. He's been all over the place and everything he's put out, even at its worst, has been damn interesting. Which isn't to say that I think it would be wrong to think he's slipped up with a certain style or sound he's going for now, but I think Blawan just doing whatever he wants to do is a great thing. |
Deviant.
08.05.12 | What I meant was that he's one of the few artists who can genuinely pull off both styles within the same track and not make it seem cheesy or over indulgent. I just wish LDOWW was more in that vein, than being this kind of ultra cool warehouse rave soundtrack thing |
TMobotron
08.05.12 | Ahh, alright word. Personally I think he found a really nice balance between his funky trademark
percussion that hits really hard, even if it's a bit more 4 on the floor this time, and his more
obvious garage aesthetic that exists in the melodic and vocal tracks of his songs. Like the more
techno-oriented tracks utilize the aesthetic from his previous stuff, which always had a bit of a
darker styling, in a way that works just as well if not moreso because of its backdrop.
But when I listen to some of it, especially 6 to 6 lick, I realize it might be a bit TOO quirky.
Doesn't affect me personally though. |
clercqie
08.05.12 | I for one love the fact he's transitioning to a darker style. I mean, his garage stuff was pretty good, but didn't send as much chill trough my spine. |
TMobotron
08.05.12 | Yeah I kind of agree. I mean all his stuff has a really awesome sound so IDK that I could decide which I think is best, but it's hard for me to disagree with where he's at now. It just feels like such a raw, impacting sound now. |
Deviant.
08.05.12 | His move to techno is the best thing he could have done |
clercqie
08.05.12 | It's still the best electronic genre of them all, after all. |
