Profile: I live underneath a rock and I collect records.

Sometimes I crawl out from underneath my rock and I play records in public. I'm quite good at this, apparently. Go to my homepage and leech DJ mixes if you want to see for yourself.

Cure, The - Japan 1986 - 11-Apr-07 03:22 AM
Relatively dodgy bootleg. Most of the song titles are wrong - as is the date. The tracklisting makes it pretty obvious that this was recorded during the '84 tour for The Top lp.

Sound isn't that great, but it does feature live versions of a few tracks that were rarely heard after that tour.

Kode9 + Daddi Gee* - Sign Of The Dub / Stalker - 21-Oct-06 05:12 PM
Sine Of The Dub is a pretty insane take on Prince's Sign O' The Times... a deep, minimal pulse of a bassline carries the track along, while Space Ape lays out the message of Prince's original cut with such a deep voice and laid back tempo that you'd almost think someone was playing an acapella at 16rpm. The flipside, Stalker is substantially more up tempo, which makes it a more versatile record to cart along to a gig. It certainly isn't more of the same from side to side.

Great stuff.

Misc. / Thomas Gwosdz - Speicher 24 - 19-Feb-05 08:12 AM
Make it two in a row. Gwosdz has churned out a dark, brooding piece that digs up sounds that I haven't heard since Plus 8068 dropped. The kick is so bass heavy that my home speakers barely pick it up (I can feel it in the headphones, so I know it must be there somewhere).

Jake Fairley / Peter Grummich - Speicher 23 - 19-Feb-05 07:06 AM
Fairley's side of this one is a solid cut - very playable. Motorized is what really grabs me by the short hairs. It is a serious monster of a track. The midrange goes crosses the double line and drifts from dirty to ugly. Thinking about it makes me want to put it back on.

If there's anything remotely like this in the back catalog then I'm going to have to track it all down.

Blue Calx - Same Face - 05-Oct-03 08:15 AM
One of Mokum's stranger releases. A careful check of the liner notes shows that these tracks are by Naoto Suzuki (of Smiley Slayers, Deadly Drive and Burning Lazy Persons fame), and not Richard James (as some would believe).
