retrospect

22Feb07

Not too long ago I was considering selling my beloved TR808. A relic from the 80’s that just keeps on doing its thing. It has such a distinct sound and I guess a few genres of music would not have happened without it. I can safely assume that everyone has heard the sound at least once.

It has been mentioned in many songs (but possibly not as much as the mpc and sp1200).

I’ve been thinking about doing a retrospective for a while. So the next few episodes will be loosely based around this theme. Feel free to suggest tracks that you think should be included or even come up with your own mix.

Not specifically playing one style I will be including a bit of Miami bass, Techno bass, 80’s Electro, booty bass / ghetto tech, Detroit, along with some other random stuff….actually fuck it…you get the picture… just lots of dope records!

Especially a couple of my favourites electro. Such a misused term can cause confusion. Some people use the term to refer to all electronic music or to the new “electro house” or “new rave”. No we aren’t referring to that definition of electro. I’m talking about performers in the 80’s that rapped about space and mars over a fast jerky futuristic beat and some of the music that followed that was directly influenced by that period. Some of it cheezy, some dark and speculative all fun!

So if your into the new “electro” take a little time to soak in something different.

Suffice to say the trusty drum machine is still in the family.

painting pictures on silence - mixed by drox

In this episode we travel through some minimal dubbed out goodness from berlin via detroit and england for some lush electronic bliss. The captain has been given strict instructions for us to return back to base in the fourth quadrant. After a bumpy takeoff we are crusing with hyper drive on full throttle into the depths.

Some of these tracks are taken from some favorite netlabel releases such as the excellent Graceland EP by Norman Fairbanks and the Minor Fading Zero compilation out of Russia on the Leibniz netlabel. Folow the links to download.
