To end the topic of “Can`t Fake…” we got another edit for you, in fact it`s more of a remix than an edit but what the heck. O.Boogie is no stranger to our readers anymore, just scroooooooll down or hit the “Amsterdam” Tag and you will get mucho more goodness from him.
Together with Tom Trago (watch the Patta video in my previous post which i found just yesterday) Boogie flipped and chopped Geraldine Hunt`s classic to the max, probably the most creative Edit slash Remix of them three. Needs to be played out LOUD and late to ensure proper damage, works wonders.
All the best to the whole Amsterdam crew, see you soon!
True Dat! Killer Disco Track that has been re-edited a few times lately, thanks to Flipperi from Top Billin who put me on to this in the first place, stating that the Loudtone Edit you find below is serious “Crap” because it`s not quantized properly. Caught me on the half a few times as well when playing this out but a properly set Serato Loop comes to the rescue here.
Anyways, recently another edit of this popped up and it sounds much better in terms of mastering, “looking” at the track itself I have to say i still like the Loudtone Edit better, more climax. Decide for yourself.
This one has been a real staple in my sets when i still used to play out vinyl only, amazing production from no other than Sly & Robbie back from 1983. There`s a good Larry Levan Remix of this one too but i always preferred the original vocal. Classic Ish.
And yet another remix of “se tune” Night by Night but fear not people – it`s a blazer! Canada`s finest Smalltown Pete & Mike did a really good job on this one, quite housey and even a little bit” funky” if we dare say so, Cowbells FTW! The boys got Calgary on lock with their regular Clubnight at the Hifi Club and soon they will hop over to Europe to play a couple of choice gigs, check them dates on their myspace and visit their blog for all things Smalltown.
Nice free treat by our man from Amsterdam O.Boogie, really dig the Lifelike-ish vibe on this one… Check the arrow on the SoundCloud player to download – more of this stuff please!
Philly`s own Emynd just unleashed a couple of very club friendly BMore Edits, kinda rare to hear that sound nowadays as everything is about wobbling bass and whatnot, WE DIG! These joints will surely come in handy rather sooner than later and we think you should check the whole package out for yourself here. We have one joint for free download below but strongly advise you not to be cheap – cop the whole release over at Junodownload which has the BMore Soul EP on exclusive Presale right now and support those who deserve it.
Check Out the Crossfaded Bacon Blog, plenty o goodness over there from him & Bo Bliz – Well recommended.
Amazing Vinyl only Mix by DJ AM from 2002 over at “Mike B vs Dickie G” – YOU NEED THIS! Really. I`m drooling over here with one crying eye (only 25min deep in the mix) so get on the DL now.
This mix was hugely inspirational for me and basically changed my whole approach to commercial club gigs. Just listening to it made me a better DJ. Hope it works for y’all too.
Mike B
The people who knew him well have spoken (1,2), ima keep quiet (what the fuck would i say anyways?), just enjoy the mixes for now and try hard to play better, period. The main effect his passing had on me (at least) is that i realized how much i suck at DJ`ing and that there really aren`t any boundaries when it comes to mixing. Damn.
The man O.Boogie from Amsterdam on some nice Re-Edit steez, Jimmy “Bo” Horne`s Spank extended and chopped up nicely, way to goho. Free Download as well, examine the player above or head over to Boogie`s Soundcloud.
Just back from a really dope night at King Georg, one of the best places in cologne when it comes to semicozy bar slash miniclub business. Played everything from Folk to Old School House Music and whatnot, what brought the whole thing home once again was the goodie below though. Proper.
Since Dip Some is off to Amsterdam I figured now would be a good time to start contributing here.First pick is maybe my favorite Feist track so far. This one is of a 10″, which was released previous to her last LP. Sets the mood nicely for some late summer evenings…
This blog is mostly about music appreciation, for real. Rather than participating in nowadays "we were first" blog game we focus on timeless tracks and a few exclusives we think you should hear and play out. There simply is too much crap around. Anyways, if you own the copyright in something that is up here and want an audio link removed or feel like getting in contact for whatever reason please email to holla [at] 123rakete.de.
Other than that we are three DJ`s from Cologne running a monthly clubnight, dj around elsewhere a bit, enjoy both vinyl and mp3`s next to some other random stuff.
