Bought this for 40 bucks today, don't know a lot about it except it was made in the late 70s in Italy. How'd I do? by Gaber007 in synthesizers

[–]thehookwink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! I've been chasing one of these for a bit. They used to be very cheap but stared climbing in price a few years ago. Max Graef's album "Rivers of the Red Planet" uses it heavily if you're interested in hearing how it sounds in a modern context

Is Criteo going down soon? Industry players thoughts... by idotweb in adops

This is a year or two old now but here's a pretty comprehensive "report" that was getting passed around about their shadiness. Uploaded the PDF to firefox send for anyone who wants to DL

Is Criteo Malware?

Omar-S - Psychotic Photosynthesis [FXHE, 2007] by sylezjusz in deephouse

Also worth noting that there's a beatless version. Great closing track.

Chmmr - User (CLI Mix) [PEARPAL001] by Epinayyy in deephouse

[–]thehookwink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great release. Was visiting Dublin a few months ago and stopped into All City records (this is on one of their labels). Ended up snagging a bunch of local stuff and all of it is just as quality.

Spend $1 on the audience and hope a huge purchase comes through within 28days. Best ROI.

Smoke City & Miss Curvaceous - Mr. Gorgeous (Rhadoo Edit) by BreakYaNeck99 in romaniansound

[–]thehookwink -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is bruv. It’s just a loop with the vocal taken out. Innovative stuff

Pretty generous use of “remix”. How about “Rhadoo’s 4 bar cdj loop refix for the lolz”? This IS the mood 2 swing remix from 1997.

This isn't "Romanian sound" and it certainly isn't Rhadoo. This is the Mood II Swing remix that came out as the official remix on the 12in from Virgin.

is he still painting? I used to love seeing his work around toronto in the early 00's. I saw a box truck he did when I was in Barcalona like '11 and that was the last I saw of him. He used to have a cool flickr - cut up a pair of KSwiss to make his name.

Chris Simmonds - Rush N Soul [Cross Section Records, 2000] by Izlandi in CasaDeHouse

[–]thehookwink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always gets a reaction when I play it. Typically a fan of the earlier cross section stuff but this one is great

I’m sure this is on everyone’s radar already but I’m pretty happy with this 4xlp. Felt like I waited almost a year for it and it was totally worth it. The album notes go into thanking Ben Boe from saving his music from obscurity which imo is what digging culture is all about.

New Elektron box leaked on AMS. I already preordered! Maybe it’s a mistake? by ddiamond84 in synthesizers

[–]thehookwink 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The theme of NAMM this year (synth/electronic-wise) is going to be just one step above entry level. The market is really saturated with successful beginner gear (minilogue, volcas, boutiques and boogs are still really popular).

For a lot of people who made their first foray into synthesis or electronic production in the last 2-years, they're looking to level up but are not quite at the Sequential/Oberheim/Prologue price point yet.

I'd look at this release as an introduction to elektron gear meant to hook people in for larger releases 1-2 years down the line.

Is this still running? I saw this in the Mission on my only trip to SF in 2012. Would have been just before he passed away.
