listening to it now - nice. always like tejada's stuff...
my current faves
smash tv - yellow asteroids (!!!!!!)
loco dice - seeing through shadows
misc. - like morning in your eyes remixes
the tejada /is/ good, tho the b side is a lot weaker i feel. also slightly underwhelmed by loco dice's 'seeing through shadows' - he certainly hasn't recaptured the sexy greatness of 'jacuzzi games'....
i am absolutely /loving/ the new robag w & wighnomy bros ep tho. 'moppal kiff' is disntinctly weird and 'cracked out', with a pitch-bending melody line that sounds, as my girlfriend remarked, like rastas playing on a moog (rastas, i would add, that have been listening to a lot of chinese music...). the b side is also fantastic - alternating between aphexian ambient and rolling, funky beats.
also good are
- sierra sam's 'son of the knight' - really dense, shifting textures.
- gerome sportelli 'krax musique ep'
- galoppierende zuversicht 'chnobli ep' - especially 'erdschuber': an obscene heaving beast of a track
- My My 'Swiss On Rye EP'
on a completely un-cracked-out but vaguely minimal bent (should someone start a 'minimal: breaking news etc' thread??) - nubian mindz 'typewriter ep' is pretty amazing, especally 'typewriter'.....old school meets african polyrythms!
and finally - just heard michael mayer's remix of adolf noises' 'grundton'. probably the scariest dance record i've heard since roli widmer's one with the swiss nursery rhyme sample....a german monologue by a guy losing his mind (scariest bit - when he starts singing), smashing glass sounds and grime-esque gun-cock samples. brilliant.
anyone feeling any of these?
