Prodigy, The - Warrior's Dance - 16-Jun-09 04:56 PM
Why, Why, Why?

The LP version smacks you up like a bad-ass-mofo-Cantona-kung-fu-kick!

Proper old school techno-rave standard, just as we like it.

These remixes are piss-poor, they've got no bollox wotsoever, I didn't like these at all.

I was bitterly dissapointed with these remixes, I had such high exspectations for this 12" and I've been left wanting badly.

My 11 year old son needs a new frisbee for the summer, I think I have the ideal replacement for him!

Come on Prodigy, you know the score with vinyl brothers, Sort it ouuuuut! How dare you take the piss for the money men!

Specials, The - Specials - 07-May-09 08:22 PM
I can't believe that I am the first person to review this quintesential,must have, ground-breaking LP!

Firstly, this Lp out-punked punk with its basic rawness and energy. For those of us who were a tad to young to get into the punk movement, up popped the Specials with thier debut ska influenced punk LP which basically blew every other band who were trying to get "there" completely out of the water. This LP really put people in thier places by saying, "If you want to make it, you've got to at least be able to play your instruments with some degree of decorum, and be able to hold a tune, but most importantly you've got to write decent lyrics to decent music, ala "The Clash". The Specials had mega-talent in abundance, they had Jerry Dammers Writing, and the manchester utd. supporting Coventry-lad Terry Hall singing(Nuff Said), plus the multi talents of Roddy Radiation, Neville Staples, Lynval Golding, Horace Panter and John Bradbury, which they used collectively to produce probably the best debut LP EVER to enter the world of music.
I've just been to see "The Specials" at the Brixton Acadamy (07/05/09) 30 years on from the release of thier debut LP entitled "The Specials", and I can honestly say that they are one of the best live bands that i've ever seen, they were as tight as a tourniquet, Terry Hall's still as dry as a funeral drum, they were VERY SPECIAL indeed. Listen to this LP and savour every moment, it don't get much better than this people, EVERY song a master-piece. Keep up the good work lads.

Cabaret Voltaire - Groovy, Laidback And Nasty - 23-Apr-09 06:05 PM
Firstly,listen without predudice! This is a top quality house music LP produced by THEE pioneer of house music, Mr Marshall Jefferson. House is a feeling, and these boys aint gonna mess about, they are gonna use the best. Basically what you've got to remember is that this was a massive transitional period for electronic music and as always Cabaret Voltaire were willing to push the bounderies of what they knew, and were willing to experiment with the underground producers of the time, they were willing to lay their reputation on the line and be schooled into a different way of playing with their machines. For me the outcome was stunning, sublime vocals, gorgeous analogue basslines, and rhythms to die for, you've got to stop living in the past and look to what was produced because of these halcyon days,Body and Soul, Plasticity, The Conversation, and many more RHK classics to boot. Get into it, get involed, live the Dream Brothers and Sisters, and get real...This is House, and if you don't like house, then you're listening to the wrong people, Cabaret Voltaire have always been House...Period.

Aril Brikha - Winter EP - 24-Mar-09 01:36 PM
To be honest when I first heard winter I thought it was dire and rejected it straight back to the shop-keep.
After a late night session in the studio at the end of my mates garden I was forced to look and listen to this record in a different light. My friend played the record at 33rpm +8 and it sounded awesome, something completely different to the euro-trance that was reproduced at 45rpm. I've since gone and bought a copy and tried it myself and it still sounds so much better, so much deeper at 33rpm +8, nice to know that it wasn't all in the mind then, I think.

Claude VonStroke - Who's Afraid Of Detroit? [Deepchord & Soultek Mixes] - 03-Oct-08 05:30 PM
If you like your techno dub deep then head straight for the Deepchord mix. This little beauty will drag you way in, spin you out, and then when you're halfway through it will make you forget what you were originally listening to and when it's all over you'll be left thinking "Wow, what the F*@k went on there man, I must get me some more of that quality mind-melt sh*t" Happens to me every morning on the tube at 06:00am on the way to work. Always puts a beat in my head and a smile on my face!
