Urban Shakedown - Some Justice - 20-Dec-05 04:07 PM
Some Justice was actually written on two Amigas. To synchronise them they had a pattern of clicks on each Amiga which looped before the tracks started. They basically kept starting the tracks until the clicks were in sync. That's how they got 8 track audio before the Amiga 1200 came out and without using programs such as OctaMED which further degraded the 8-bit sound quality when using more than the Amiga's 4 hardware sound channels.
Detune - Irradiation - 16-Sep-04 08:31 PM
This is a quality production. All tracks are of high quality but I would skip straight track A2 - "Flying Area". Amazing. It leaves you in a state of shock.
It starts off with a intense orchestral strings like something from a war movie score. Then it hits you. Believe me it truly hits you for six.
This tune still sounds fresh now, 10 years or so since it's release. It has one of the most EVIL analogue lines ever heard. Nice distortion. It just keeps coming at you. EVIL!!! The analogue riff itself changes at intervals throughout the track but the modulation/cut off filters keeps it flowing to retain a definate sound to the tune. The strings kick back in about half way through, atop the analogue madness. It all goes a mental when the strings die down again. Knob turning trickery at the top level.
When I first heard this I nearly creamed my pants. Years later when I managed to get a copy I creamed my pants again. Messy.
If you don't own this and you like hard Techno with analogue lines then add this to your wishlist. NOW!
Alter Ego - Transphormer - 16-Aug-04 02:05 PM
A good release, in the style of The Hacker or Millemetric maybe, electro/techno kind of deal. All tunes are pretty sweet apart from "Satanic Circus". Blow me! This tune is NAUGHTY with a capital NAUGHTY.
With a 3/8 time signature, distorted basslines and techno beats it's funky but DARK. The bassline eventually peaks into a sound like some of the old industrial strength hardcore stuff. A sawtooth wave through harsh distortion with plenty of resonance and sweeping cut-off filters. Wow!
Man With No Name - Teleport (Remixes) - 12-Aug-04 07:20 AM
Don't confuse this (as I did) for the original release. I suppose it serves me right for not looking properly! As "commercialified" remixes go it's not totally bad but it seems a tad unnecessary. The original is SWEET. Really nice Goa Trance before Goa consumed itself with over production. This however is not.
It contains all the old sounds/riffs from the original but it's constructed like some of the more cheesy trance from Belgium. I feel Goa doesn't cross over well into this genre - the clean cut production and basic bassline on the off-beat gives a totally different feel to Goa. If you like Goa you probably won't like these mixes. If you're into the commercial sound you probably won't like them either. It's neither here nor there. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Avoid it and buy the original!
Paul Glazby & Narcomaniacs, The* - Acid Disco - 08-Jul-04 03:50 PM
Check out this D.A.V.E the Drummer mix. Stompin' London-style Acid Techno. Yes, there's loads of this stuff about, and yes, most of the newer material isn't a scratch on the older stuff BUT:
This tune ROCKS. It has possibly some of the sweetest distorted 909 ride cymbals in the world.............ever! (Ahem...)
Ignore the Hard House mix - utter cheese
Check it!
