Wow didn’t know that rhouses. Where could I have been? Are you trying to justify it just because fatso finished his sets off with it?
That electro clash era was the absolute death of the prog and of the bald one. I never forgave him for that bollox.
Cankles-McJeggings It was a fun time which I hold on to dearly; loads of pills, clubbing every other weekend, a full-on immersion into dance music (with my nose up at dutch trance), spending all my money on vinyl and mixed CDs (70% of which are unlistenable in 2023)… but am I mostly embarrassed by the cheese, the 135 BPM, and generally being all too excitable about dudes playing other people’s music? Absolutely.
Back on topic, I look at Digweed’s Live In London as the fabric mix we were hoping for. Quality tech house leading up to his vortex prog. Fabric 20, however, could easily be a Funkagenda Mark Knight mixed CD from 2007… but carry on LT, please keep listening to that garbage.
Cankles-McJeggings Yeh, I’d say shortly after that myself with all the mnml/dreadful tech house that was about. Remember convincing some of my mates that weren’t into Digweed to go to Bedrock after I’d been going on about it for years and he bored the fuck out of them with it - which was fair. It was like John Creamer again but for longer. Awful time for music and took way too long to recover.
Saw Infusion, Evil Nine and Mark Knight in Sydney in 2004.
Was a decent night tbf.
If there is one electronic band I miss seeing live it’s Infusion. Fantastic stuff.
No, I am referring to Infusion as nonsense, though mostly on the basis that Aussies love them.
File with ‘the Ackerdacker’ and Men at Work. And Savage Garden.
“The mix is total shit with ropey mixing.”
“Actually, it does have my anthem of the year and the mixing is fine.”
Rhouses. January 2023.
I feel an update to Abdul’s coming on.
Evil Nine are from Brighton Dave.
