been collecting that early Final Cut stuff for a year or so now. You cannot beat Mateo + Matos in that early "couple machines and a sampler" and shitty pressings era. Sounds like they were figuring it out as they went, both sonically and in terms of putting records out* and they're so good for it.

Gutted, still relatively young

Welcome to the Factory and The Bar Heads releases were savage. Caned until the sleeves fell apart. Genius tools heard repeatedly all over the gaff, hard to top them

Plasher beating out old Nervous

at some point, this thread needs to take a dip into sound factory/tenaglia/junior Vasquez territory. I wasn't a fan at the time, seemed to lack the heart and soul of deep house/garage, but I came around to it being a different animal.

New recruit here too. When I put it next to things like MURK in my head, it feels like it's coming from the same subterranean place. Would love to hear a 6-9 hour mix of Tenaglia at his peak. A lot of people I respect say that was it for them

2 other djs I still need to check that get name dropped by so many other djs I respect are Ken Collier out of Detroit and Tee Scott from NYC. Collier was huge for Detroit underground house and Scott was knocking around with and influencing the who's who of the NY/NJ sphere. Big influence on Tony Humphries who's my go-to guy for the the NJ garage thing which is prob the sound that does it for me above all these days. Tuff Love I'd call it. Gospel tinged but with those deep n dark basses. Chatting with Jerome Sydenham once I was asking him about the Paradise Garage - he was a regular, and he said 'look man, the PG was all that and then some, but for me, Humphries at Zanzibar was the one.'

Which makes me wonder what Tee Scott did that inspired that

true dat. Murk makes me think of being in my own headspace, whereas some of this stuff introduces a bit of a k-hole/bad-drugs element. I remember riding my bike past Twilo in the warehouse area of pre-gentified Chelsea on a Sunday morning at about 10:00 am and you could hear the music pounding, a few casualties littered along the block.

I've got Tenaglia's Hard & Soul album

That "hard soul" thing as an approach = 🔥 Opposing forces coming together. The soul in the midst of the anonymous and lonely city, all woven together via intertwining roots of all the cultures and characters, surviving, making it through, with chunky ass house music ❤️
