115bpm, kind of Italo House

It's going to get a 12" vinyl release in France in a different version than this (with vocals provided by a Parisian resident Spanish artist lady) but I don't know if it will get a wider release

get your ears on it
tweets, comments, likes etc. gratefully appreciated

        With your JAGging
        
        You're the worst people in the world
        
        You should make a record together

        yeah but
        
        I would never kick off about not being allowed to take my own tinnies into a venue
        
        also, Bamnan requested a collaboration yesterday - if we threw Mick Squalor into the mix it would be JAGsville, USA
        
        imagine

Delightful once more!

Three of my younger colleagues and another whose age is becoming increasingly harder to ascertain were waxing lyrical about this in the staff room just as I had downed tools and was preparing to leave for the night. Needless to say that I stayed and got a groove on! Excellent production again and I'm hoping for a top four finish!!

    - well, it's an understated spoken word thing
      
      rather than singing so...

I like it

found myself nodding my head along without really realising I was doing it, which was good sign.

Not sure about the orgasmic noise every now and again, but as it is *Italo House* it is probably genre specific.

Kitchmo | 26 Nov '12, 21:16 | X | ^ This | Reply
- well, the orgasmic noise will make more sense when/if you hear the vocal version

Very impressive/slick production.

The music's not really to my personal taste (a bit too 'clean' for me), but a very well put together track nonetheless. What I like most is that it's a 'dance' track which grows without sounding like it was made on a Fruity Loops-style grid - do you know what I mean? With a lot of this kind of music I find it too rigid or obvious (and annoying) when new elements/instruments/sounds get added.

As a side point, is the bleepy bit at the beginning sampled from You Got the Love by Candi Staton? Sounds like it is to me, but I could be wrong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sd0zY_DYxjE

BetterGayThanGuevara | 27 Nov '12, 10:11 | X | ^ This | Reply
- Cheers for the praise
  
  no, no samples
  it's a standard descending arpeggio, Candi's is a repeated 3 note motif and mine's a four note one
  
  if you want something more scuzzy and freeform you'd probably much prefer the track in the previous JAG link above

So this is going to be out in January with a limited run of 100 numbered vinyl

Body_In_The_Thames | 27 Nov '12, 16:08 | X | ^ This | Reply
- Why such a short run?
  
  Kitchmo @Body_In_The_Thames | 27 Nov '12, 21:24 | X | ^ This | Reply
  - exclusivity
    
    it's going to be in a super-hip Parisian Boutique and as part of/alongside an art/film installation
    
    Body_In_The_Thames @Kitchmo | 27 Nov '12, 21:40 | X | ^ This | Reply
    - which is not my idea of course
      
      and presumably it'll be available digitally sometime afterwards

quiet bump

Body_In_The_Thames | 28 Nov '12, 21:55 | X | ^ This | Reply
- No one else?
  
  Has this run its course already?
  
  Well, here's another remix I did a few weeks ago of Sheffield indie band Screaming Maldini who are on Alcopops
  
  http://soundcloud.com/body-in-the-thames/screaming-maldini-summer
  
  Also 115(.25)bpm, a bit more blissed out though with cowbells & handclaps and melodic female vocals & such
  Eddy Temple Morris is going to play this on his XFM remix show tomorrow night apparently
  
  any thoughts/questions/insults/recipes?

Really, really like this - good job

(even if I did start singing along to the tune of 'One To Another' by The Charlatans at 1:40 ;))
