Coki - Spongebob / The End - 29-Jul-08 09:25 AM
Spongebob is a relentlessly warped piece of dubstep. Imagine if 808 state had made Cubic without any varation of the notes so that they repeted themsleves except for a disturbing wobble at the end that sounds like someone rubbing there finger on the lable of the record quickly slowing, then speeding up the pitch of it you get the idea of the brutality in the simplicity of this receord. Then it stops, and where you might expect some kind of gear change, pounds on just like before. I like it!

Luke Slater's 7th Plain* - The 4 Cornered Room - 18-Apr-08 10:25 AM
Inspireational, interesting, haunting, strange and beautiful album. But it is the standout track Real Life Ceremony that has made me write something here. THis track once heard will haunt you and you will want to listen to it again and again. A mate of mine bought the album when it was first released and I dug it then but could not get hold of a copy. Not sure why it took so long but I have finally got my own copy of Four corner room. Anybody professing to enjoy interesting electronic music of any form should check this album out. Just dont call it IDM. ;)

Evolution Bridge - Simplicity / Meree In Two - 15-Mar-06 05:11 AM
There is no release date info on the record anywhere but I heard it on a tape mixed alongside Blapps possies Dont Hold Back and Mike Dunns Magic Feet so at a guess I would date it somewhere around 1989-1990. The A side, Simplicity contains a sample from a Simple Minds track (not sure which one) hence the title. This sample drives the tune which is punctuated with the catchy vocal sample; keep the place hoppin . There was a record put together in a fairly similar way using the same Simple Minds sample sample a few years back that placed in one of Pete Tongs charts but with its more polished production and with extra chords that attempted to impruve the riff it didnt have the same charm and effect IMHO. This is one of those old tunes that never developed a widespread reputation as an old skool classic but quite easily could of and I like to think has not suffered at all because of this and retains a kind of best kept secret status.

Tears For Fears - Broken/Head Over Heels/Broken (Preacher Mix) - 20-Mar-05 12:02 PM
I had been searching for this for a while, as the opening chimes used to feature in the opening bed of Tim Westwoods friday rap show. I think they also appeared on a dj Rectangle battle weapon disk (which is, I guess, how they ended up in a montage for a rap(/hip-hop) show. After watching the cult classic Donny Darko, with some special attention paid to the closing credits, I was able to put a track to the chimes.
The use of this song in Donny Darko is inspired. Watch it and see what I mean.

Hardfloor - Hardtrance Acperience E.P. - 18-Feb-05 12:40 PM
I was suprised to see that this record has not had any comment, although, on reflection, understandable as it is a daunting task because this is one of those tunes that is widely regarded as boardering on a PERFECT piece of music and conciquently difficult to do justice in writing. Like Nasty Habits Shadow Boxing, or Awsome 3s Dont go this track could be described as reprosenting both a genre and a point in time but at the same time is timeless and genre defying.
Put simply Hardtrance Acperience would be a healthy contender in a biggest and best acid house tunes ever made compitition.
