History of dance with a man called adam.

So, me and my dad were talking a few months back, and he said he wanted to help me out with this blog, because he thinks as himself as "Mr Music." Basically the idea was for him to give some quality artists/songs/albums from "back in the day." 
So, yes, its taken him around 2 months to actually give me a first post and here it is.


Greg Wilson is a hero of mine. As 12 year old, I used to sit (tape deck at the ready ) and wait for Greg's legendary monster mixes on Mike Shaft's "Taking Care of Business" on Piccadilly Radio Manchester. .. It was the highlight of year, if you were into soul, electro funk & hip hop.. You were the coolest kid around if you had greg's mixes blaring out your ghetto blaster, while walking around the estate wearing your Le Shark (Poor Man's Lacoste) Polo T-Shirts, Farah Trousers and Winfield Four Stripe Trainers. ( Yep thats right, Woolworths Own!) Well my Mum couldn't afford Adidas Originals back then... Poor thing.
Anyway here, in my eyes (ears), are some Greg's finest tracks. 


Then:
Walking On Confusion (Greg Wilson mash-up)
Rockers Revenge " Walking on Sunshine" vocals with New Orders "Confusion" beats. Both tracks produced by Arthur Baker but Greg mixed this up while being the DJ at the Hacienda, well before Madchester and certainly before Soulwax started the "Mash Up Trend". . Ahead of his time, I say.

Now:
The XX - Night Time (Greg Wilson Remix)
Nothing wrong with the album version, but Greg has turned it into a Nu Balearic bubbler. Which is now in vogue/fashion/all the rave, as they say. Listen and float away to the new subtle beats to the original dreamy atmosphere.

Flux Pavillion - Lines In Wax EP

This Monday saw the debut EP release on Circus from the man of the moment, Flux Pavilion. Highly anticipated and he doesn’t dissapoint with this absolute banger.

1. Flux Pavilion Ft. Foreign Beggars – Lines In Wax
The Ep’s title track has a crazy rolling acid synth that leads the way into a devastating bass fuelled mix. Great collaboration with Foreign Beggars.

2. Flux Pavilion – Haunt You
This haunting track is adds a bit of variation. Smooth melody held together with the trademark Flux effects makes this for a popular head nodding release.

3. Flux Pavilion – Hold Me Close
It’s impossible to not nod your head to this one. Flux moves onto a 4×4 beat on this and another great use of a vocal sample.

4. Flux Pavilion – I Cant Stop 
A mid range bass on the drop paired with a nasty sub, takes you on an emotional, stand still and admire trip. In my opinion, strongest and greatest track on the EP.

The Lines In Wax EP is out now on Circus Records. 


Buy it from play.com here or from itunes here.

Rubber.

Rubber is a indie horror film about a telepathic, killer radial tire, and it is 

directed by Quentin Dupieux. If you haven’t heard of him (or his previous film Steak), you're either film RETARD, or you're just not familiar with him under that guise. Quentin is non other than, the amazing Mr.Oizo. 

As i sit here now typing away at my desk, I have not seen this film, but coming from the reviews that those lucky songs of b's that went to all those film festival, its living up to my expectations/imaginations. All i have heard is good things for this film, well apart from the same complaint from pretty much every critic, the length....hmm, i suppose that could be a bad thing, but if the film has a great dialogue and amazing cinematography then it's pretty much sold for me, not to mention the soundtrack......

So i hear you say, what about the soundtrack, well do not worry, i'll shall tell you about it. The soundtrack has been created by Oizo himself and Gaspard Auge (you know, that bearded guy from that daft punk rip off duo Justice), so with those juicy french electro bass, synths, and drums, that alone will surely be amazing.

Rubber is not scheduled for release in the UK at this time, but it is being released at cinemas in France on the 10th November, and the soundtrack is being released 2 days prior on the 8th November.

But if you want to have a little peak at what is to come on that, you can buy the EP "Rubber" now.

HAMILTON IS A BADDDDDMAN!

SHEFF

Howdo, 
Been in Sheffield for a couple of weeks, and its safe to say i'm enjoying it.
Theres so much Dubstep + Drum & Bass, but not enough House/Techno, which is a bit disappointing to be honest. But non the less, its still a pretty sick city.
Anyway, i've recently been listening to chilled/trippy dubstep/electronica, the likes of Mount Kimbie, James Blake, Scuba, Lulu Rouge, and im liking what I hear.
I suggest to everyone, just sit in a tent, have a smoke and chill out listening to Mount Kimbie's album "Crooks & Lovers" or their EP "Maybes"
