  • Dance Music Artist You Own The Most Music From

Oh and Richard D James. I have a crazy amount of his shit. Probs second to Namlook honestly.

jonattonyeah Lemme guess your favorite labels are “White” and “CDR”

I like the exclusivity 😂

    Zack, point me in the direction of a Pete Namlook starter pack. Colour me intrigued!

      Amps Thats a tuff one. Let me give it some thought. There is just so much and its so diverse. He did everything from Psy Trance to traditional jazz.

        jonattonyeah Trevino (RIP)

        Do you have any of his drum and bass stuff? I’ve always said I would check it out, but never actually got around to doing so.

            zackster

            I did, yeah. His stuff as Marcus Intalex was very good, but definitely in LTJ-style of things; albeit a bit later than that style’s peak popularity. Soul:R was a good label. But the thing is, what made DnB so fun was how all over the place and unformulaic it was. By 2000 that was all out the window.

                jonattonyeah I gotta get on that. His RA Exchange discussion was one of my absolute favorites. He was so inspiring. I remember listening to it at work, then riding my bike home on my lunch break just to program shitty drum loops :because he got me so excited and motivated.

                  Soul:R was a top label. Managed to catch Intalex at the end for a Bukem night and he put Bukem in the shade.

                  Peace Division. Why ? I have no idea - they used to see me coming in that record shop - it was an addiction. I probably only like Club Therapy and the one about the stripper….the rest is all set to a simple formula ….they’ve fucked off now ….probably doing film music or working for a hedge fund (maybe not that)

                    I follow Clive Henry on FB. I’m not sure if he’s still making records but he still DJs.
                    I also own a fair bit of their music.

                        i reckon over the years it is porbably tiefshwarz. started off when they first come out in 2002 with freakbox, red dress etc, but each year I have at least bough a couple of their releases. still would not go to see them dj

                        Hmmm probably Lexicon Avenue or Circulation

                        baggers44 i have loads of peace division too. don’t think much of it was stellar, but it was generally decent and i found it always sat well in a mix, good for transitions and such.

                          Dubman hehe. it sounds a bit dated - i think that tribal thing was massively overplayed looking back on it …..John Creamer …..he was huge……. for about 5 weeks anyway

                              baggers44 idk how much it contributed to the demise of that sound, but I can’t imagine the rise of the DAW did tribal any favors. Unless I’m mistaken most all of the drum loops are just samples, which makes those tunes embarrassingly easy to produce.

                                Leftfield early stuff
                                Morales remixes
                                Sasha
                                And mostly all Weatherall’s back catalogue on vinyl/digital.
