hugopal ‘Happiness’ tacky ear-rape

This is definitely a tune that is monstrous out of a big system. Wasn’t for me when I first heard it at home. Fucking ridiculously good in a club.

    Ideally the Fabric CDs should have been doubles to give you a real flavour of the DJs’ sets, not a highly compressed set or just an assortment of some tunes they were playing at the time, stitched together.

    I realise that this probably wasn’t practical due to licensing and the fact that they had committed themselves to rush one out per month.

    But you don’t really get the Diggers vortex from this single disc which to me also seemed like a ragtag assortment of minimal, house and electro.

      Tezza Francis’, on the other hand, builds beautifully, a well-crafted menacing snapshot of Room 2 (early doors) at the time, he is one of the few who pulls off what sounds like an actual set on a 70-minute single disc.

      bosstrabs I agree that it’s generally difficult for a DJ to show much in a single 74 minutes of music, but disc 2 of Hong Kong demonstrated Diggers is capable of creating his ‘vortex’ on a single disc.

        Mad_Cyril Listening to a mix isn’t an alternative to wanking

        To be fair, Digweed’s LA is like the gentle, suggestive swipes of your towel-covered cock from a Filipina masseuse, building up to a full-on oily handed assault on the arse, taint, bollocks, and then total release.

            Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against hand-based relief at all.

            But there’s other ways to get your kicks from a DJ mix.

              Mad_Cyril Not every mix has to ‘build to a climax’ chaps.

              While this is true, Hong Kong Disc 2 builds but doesn’t really have a climax, while fabric doesn’t build, yet attempts a climax anyway with ‘Vertigo’ at the end.

                  You formulate your 300 word posts with a build and climax in mind, Hugo, but ultimately all you do is clear the dancefloor, the bar and the cloakroom plus various streets around the venue with your catastrophic shite.

                    LT42 I’m sure that post sounded better in your head than it turned out written down.

                      Mad_Cyril I’d rather not do something which might feel like how Diggers’ fabric sounds.

                          If you know then you know. As expected, it goes right over your quiff.

                          Experimenting is ¾ of the fun. What else are Sundays for?

                          Get stuck in and report back toot sweet 👍

                              alistair GOAT mix. Flawless. Can’t get over that mix out of sweet dreams into zoot woman.

                              The digweed fabric mix is shit. Total shit. Isn’t there a Martin solvieg track on it? All you need to know how shit it is. I also struggle with the Sasha fabric mix.

                                Mad_Cyril undeniably, undeniably such an old chap. The prog is for the uncouth English bull who sleepwalks on the street because he can’t hold back his poop when he takes MDMA, the mystical of Armin van Buuren on the New York FM’s Denial. Techno groove, on the other hand, is reserved for polite, sophisticated continental edging ladies and gentlemen. That’s why Jeff Mills has pure funk for the respectable German, while the progressive shouldn’t and WILL NOT be outside of dis-respectable shed head ejaculation behaviour.
