How the fuck did we get here

Dan

I think your getting confused with Progressive rock.

seanc80 Fabric > GU, in those days.

rhouses yeah but when the Craig Richards CD came out in 01 (which is great) GU was already on the way down , the last really good one being Diggers in LA in Feb 01. After that it was a slowly deflating balloon !

It’s not dated well. Neither has the trance from then either. All just sounds like some shit Ferry Corsten would play.

Cankles-McJeggings Also why most of the prog folks will accept Anjuna Deep.

It’s mostly the 130+ bpm that I have a problem with, and always did. On some cheekies it’s great… but otherwise, it’s mostly a nostalgia play for me.

All the dutch trance folks from those days are loving nosebleed techno now. Not the zackster variety, but the soulless garbage from the likes for Dubfire.

I just don’t understand how it’s involved into what it sounds like today. It’s on par with organic house.

Dubman This. It has a very different attitude.

Hang on, Zackster likes Nina who peddles souless garbage.

Dubfire = “nosebleed techno”?!?!

rhouses

Cankles-McJeggings Zackster techno, soulless nina techno, both will result in nosebleed.

Cankles-McJeggings

Fair enough. Music for remwards.

rhouses

I don’t want to waste another post trying to decide a genre for Dubfire of all DJs, Hugo. Figure it out.

rhouses

But I hear you… nosebleed is more like Jeff Mills et al.

Anjuna Deep. Like fucking hell, it was shit then and its shit now.

Yea i agree with the organic house reference. It doesnt matter if the melody or arrangement is remotely interesting or catchy just throw it over a drum loop and away you go.

Cankles-McJeggings

Yeh agreed, Anjuna deep doesn’t get enough flack.

rhouses

Always surprises me when my clubbing mates from 2001 will say, “Anjuna Deep isn’t bad.” Think a couple of them went for a gig here recently as well. Refuse to give it a chance out of principle.

Dubman

I see somebody has invited him onto this board. I bet he’s had a look & thought fuck that I’d get eaten alive.

Yep, the guy’s a wuss - he did in fact reply to me saying he’s had a look but isn’t sure where to post. I suggested the music threads, but also pretty much anywhere - just get involved! But since then crickets.

I can’t wait for the Oakey interview

People shouldn’t encourage him. This is fucking horrible

What’s up Super Progressive happy monday and I’m so stoked to share a very very very special post today!!!
After I shared the Killahurtz post the other day, Mick Park of Parks & Wilson, Killahurtz, and Tilt actually reached out to me and was nice enough to share the backstory of Tilt’s “Seduction of Orpheus (Tilt Mythology Mix)”. I know this track is an absolute classic and I also remember it being featured as the first track of @dannytenagliaofficial GU010 Athens CD2. Here’s what Mick had to say about the track’s creation. I hope you all enjoy, and thank you again Mick! This was really special for me.
“So the backstory of the Seduction of Orpheus is a friend of mine who was studying fashion at the world famous Central Saint Martins University of Art in London. Lots of really famous designers have studied there. The end of term fashion show is a very big deal, they have lots of fashion houses attend looking for the next big designer. My friend’s collection was about the Greek mythology story of Orpheus who joined the expedition of the Argonauts, saving them from the music of the Sirens by playing his own, more powerful music. So we set about composing a 4 minute piece of music for his show. It had to be dark but powerful and grab people’s attention - so that’s what we did. After we’d finished it our management team had it in the office, when Sasha came in and asked if they had any new music. They played him the original show piece and he insisted on taking it away to play that weekend. The rest is history, it was part of the Dark Science EP on Hooj. A bit of trivia, John Graham did the vocals on the final version, as we didn’t wanna risk the sample we used.”
The full reaction to this track is on YouTube (link in bio). I hope you all enjoy, and I wanted to ask you… What are your memories of this track, and what other TILT tracks would you like to know the backstory of?
Thanks again Mick!

So for the video, it’s actually good to see someone enjoying the tune. Can’t see what’s wrong with that.

His style might be different, but is argue it’s probably less annoying than the both thumbs your arse cynicism approach sometimes prevalent on here.

Did worry the lads head was going to wobble off at one point though!
