I have a very rare Justice promo t-shirt from 04...rivers of babylon or something. Never worn. size large (hipsterlarge). £100 and it's yours.

Anyway, I'm of the opinion that 15% of Jackson's album was quite good. Better than Akufen anyway.

Let's only talk about the subject if it's something we actually know about eh guys!

I wouldn't have mentioned Jackson in the same discussion as Deadmau5.

And I'm more than happy continuing to now nothing about electro house! Nothing f*cks me off more than someone telling me their into "electro" then listing Justice etc as acts they like

THAT'S NOT F*CKING ELECTRO YOU IDIOTS

This is electro:

We'll have no electro house here, you hear? Thats what the cool kids are listening to these days and what do kids know about music eh?

{Waves walking stick at electro house}

I'm quite fond of [b]some[/b] Edbanger stuff, I must say, but a whole night's worth ...I don't know. I blame the nights of shameful decadence at Trash. And Jackson and his etc...well, I liked more than 15% of the album if i'm to be honest, but what a disappointment at Fabric a few years ago. Terrible.

mboy - Prog house, aghh. Seb Fontaine got his nickname 'Dead Mundane' due to his love of prog house.

hahaha

To be fair to him, I saw Fontaine a couple of times years ago, must've been either before or after his Prog stage, cos both times I had an excellent night! The boring tripe I'm on about is John Digweed (post Sasha), James Holden, Lee Burridge, Steve Lawler and the likes...

BoardinBob, why such distaste at Electro House? And curiously, what music are you into?

LOL

I best go see my gender realignment surgeon and tell him what a sh*t job he did as not only do I still have a penis, but I still look like I'm in my late 20's too! 😉

And I'm more than happy continuing to now nothing about electro house! Nothing f*cks me off more than someone telling me their into "electro" then listing Justice etc as acts they like

THAT'S NOT F*CKING ELECTRO YOU IDIOTS

This is electro:

Agreed... In a fashion... That is Electro, or at least what Electro was when it came out. Or a form of it, quite different again to the kind of Electro that Dave Clarke et al peddled when he wasn't playing killer Techno.

It does annoy me too when someone says "I'm into Electro" when they quite clearly mean electro house, as it shows a blatant lack of understanding and some bandwagonning, but I guess it offends me a lot less than it offends you! Making sweeping statements about someone else's musical tastes when it's something you know nothing about seems to work though... But I'm taking this one on the chin! hehe

DrDolittle, cheers, whilst I appreciate Justice's music, I am in no rush to wear a T Shirt pronouncing my affection towards them, even if it were £5 not £100!

Lets not forget that Felix da housecat classic!

This is a great record, regardless of genre that encapsulates a time...for me. And I met him a few times, he's very generous.

ahhhhhh

mrmw, you just reminded me of one of my ALL TIME fave tunes...

[url]

Remember going nuts to the original of this when I first heard it, many months before its official release, and then I heard this... The Dave Clarke Remix! MENTAL! 😀

Felix da housecat is brilliant

we once went to a wedding in Chicago and found out that he was playing the night we got there. sadly we were so knackered after the rehearsal dinner that we didn't go. I really wish we had, seeing him and then having a wedding reception on the top floor of the sears tower all in one day would have been a pretty cool weekend i think you'll agree!

Eeeeesh!

There's nothing like a purist to drain the fun out of anything! 😉

Seriously though, for every MTBer that rides a rigid singlespeed and bores the arse off everyone going on about "keeping it real" and "you don't need suspension and gears to have fun" etc... SO WHAT!

It's all House Music (of a fashion), and I love it!

mrmw, dropped [url=

tune[/url] at a night I'd organised back in 2001, about 1am, 800 people in the venue and an electric atmosphere! NEVER EVER experienced anything quite like the reaction to it before or since... It was incredible! Again, the original was awesome, but Dave Clarke on the remix again... Just unreal!

when i worked at the cheese rolling world cup finals in Berlin, we went to a festival at kunsthaus taschels on Oranienburgerstrasse (basically a 5 floor squat with a beach outside and loads of cool arty stuff) after watching the final on the fan mile.

Ended up in the techno stage and chatting to the DJ, [url= http://www.myspace.com/djmissroxyberlin ]DJane Miss Roxy[/url]. Had a massive chat about techno and electro and ended up choosing loads of records with this australian bloke and his dutch misses including loads of dave clark and fisherspooner. Danced until well after the sun came up on uber cheap vodka and redbull. One of the best nights i've ever had out, for so many reasons. brings a tear to my eye thinking about it now, dancing till the sun came up with bare feet on sand 8)

Dunno if you've already got it, but get this CD...

[url] http://www.discogs.com/release/59055 [/url]

It will be very hard to find now I should think, unless Ebay is your friend! I'll have a look for my copy, and run a copy or 2 off if I find it...

Anyway, totally blew my world apart when I bought that in Y2k! Prior to that, as a 20 year old kid I'd really only listened to more commercial stuff and quite a lot of Trance... That CD alone pretty much opened my eyes, and there was no way back from there!

Saw Justin Robertson a couple of times, once at Cream in Amnesia in Ibiza, and once at Golden in Stoke, and sadly neither time he came anywhere near creating the atmosphere he did on the Bugged Out mix CD! I've even got the album on unmixed vinyl somewhere!

If you find that mix mboy stick it up somewhere I can download it from...so much stuff I didn't buy at the time...the wages of sin for working at a record shop. So many good times, courtesy of guestlists and freebies, but **** all cash! 🙄 saying all that though, I had a ****ing great time and don't regret it at all 😆

Where did you used to work? I used to spend half my life in record shops back between about 1999 and 2004. Now I've just got a BIG pile of vinyl I never play any more (though some quality tunes in there), cos when I DJ these days I just use CDs. Reckon I've spent more than £10k on vinyl alone (how I could do with that money now!) over the years, and I'd struggle to give it away these days... Sad eh!

If I find it, it'd be easier just to copy it and pop in the post than upload it to be honest... So if I do, i'll give you a shout...

Franki - I think the most accurate bit about it is the chat Daisy and Tim have in the club about buying a big house and having a room in it as a club (hasn't everyone had this chat while mashed?) and the bit when they get home and everyone is knackered on the sofa except for Mike still bouncing about like a bunny (usually that was me).

Its also quite weird seeing all the Cyberdog t-shirts, I had loads of those and some pretty cool (at least I thought they were ;)) Manga ones. You can tell Simon Pegg and Nick Frost were very into their clubbing.

grumm - "It 'aint hip hop, its electro....."

Thank you sootyandjim! I already had the trade mix, but the Nostalgico is great. brings the memories flooding back...

these days I'm mostly listening to hard psy-trance (think John 00 Fleming stuff) because it reminds me of the way proper underground trance used to be 8-12 years ago... and some [url= http://www.nuenergycollective.com/index.php?option=com_mixes&Itemid=105 ]freeform[/url] too. enjoy 🙂
