[Closed] Any Unkle fans,suggestions please.

I remember the first time I heard in/flux. I was at a house party in Leeds and someone had it on a cheap hi-fi but output to a humungous electric bass amp. After that I spent far too much money on a lot of the vinyl mentioned on this thread. Looking forward to letting my kids discover it...

...I might steer them clear of Shadow's Insider which left me distinctly disappointed tho'.

I think someone posted this above, but it was always a fave...

EDIT: someone LITERALLY just beat me to it 😆

or Dr Octagon?

ATTICA BLUES

bass at 2:20 to full on funk out at 2:58, used to love this track!

Yep yep yep!

GLK's own stuff leaves me a bit cold, although that mix someone posted above is awesome, Jello Biafra intro and all.

That Nike cd got me started on mo wax and associated artists.
I still have disc in my collection 🙂
Labels to look out for
Ninjatune
Mo wax
Moving shadow

Wikipedia will take you on an epic search of sub labels and artists to search on.

Guessing Quannum Projects, Lateef and Blackalicious have already been mentioned?

Did someone mention Malcolm Catto? One of the best drummers ever, nearly up there with Bernard Purdie.

Mostly the older stuff thougg

and Amon Tobin is a bit different but incredible, [i]supermodified [/i]my fave album

Ha! I think he sees himself as a bit of a bodger, there's no doubt that he hits the drums HARD though. His solo stuff is interesting, also came out on Mo'Wax funnily enough. It was clogging up the bargain bins for ages as I think people expected something a bit more mellow:

There's also this industrial drums/synth badassness:

No trip hop forum should miss out Portishead or Geoff Barrow

This thread sent me back to a few records I haven't played in a while...

[img] [/img]

Cool Breeze [i]Assimilation[/i] - Dorado put out some good albums.

[img] [/img]

Skylab [i]Skylab#1[/i] - one of Howie B's many guises...

[img] [/img]

Tek 9 [i]It's Not What You Think It Is !!?![/i] - Mark and Dego = musical polymaths.

A good time in music, despite various [s]skinny[/s] baggy-jeaned hipsters arguing over the merits of [s]dubstep[/s] "trip-hop". 😉

Bop has hit it in the last couple on years on hospital records.
You need big speakers to lit the low, lows 🙂

Randomer is also EPIC

Kid koala is hit and miss but the hit,s are amazing

Finally

Dj Kentaro -

Enjoyed that Kid Koala DJ set immensely - ta.
(agreed - his albums don't do much for me)

How could I forget mr scruff

Adding Stereo Pictures Vol 3 mixtape by Dj Vadim

also to mention the King Cannibal Ninjatune mix The Way of the Ninja, no snippet can do that justice.

HUGE Dj Shadow set by Food on this weeks part 3 of Solid Steel. The start of it is doing wonders too! Sounding good so far.

Rewski: I bet you've now learnt to keep everything you own and become a hoarder! (like me) Sounds like a fun time. I live up north and nothing every really made its way up here to see live all those years ago. Edinburgh or Glasgow was the closest.

I liked the GLK's 'nissim' track mixed in on a recent Solid Steel (maybe 3 weeks ago)

Nice bit of music. The guy seems to get slated quite a bit but I'm not entirely sure why. :O/ His website has a few mixes to play for free. Worth a look.

RE:Kid Koala. I saw him live in QMU? Glasgow on a Ninja tour and some of the stuff you hear on his albums might not sound up to much but it's once you see how he generates those sounds and turns them into music.. or tricked you all along by making you think he was scratching a record that had a trumpet playing (drunk trumpet), when it wasn't quite as simple as that.. you see just how good he really is live (with cameras filming the decks and projected behind him so you could see what was going on)

I still need to listen to all the stuff you guys posted. It blows the other music threads to bits as its all revolving around the same thing. Cheers!

I'm not a huge fan of mix CDs in general but two that are very much worth tracking down in the context of this thread are Andrew Weatherall's contribution to the Back 2 Basics 'Cut the Crap' compilation from about 95/96(?) and slightly more recently, Joe Beats' 'Indie Rock Blues' album, compiled from his own remixes.

(no idea how to put youtube snippets on)

Joe Beats' 'Indie Rock Blues'

King Cannibal Ninjatune mix The Way of the Ninja

Bumping this to let folks know Dj Yoda is curating the show on BBC 6music right now, with Tom Robinson. Well worth listen
