  1. Well, 2 weeks ago I hadn't heard of these guys, now I own four of their albums!

     

    Fantastic bluesy rock....amazing what drums, guitar and vocal can sound like.

     

    I love their cover of 'Have Love Will Travel.......'

    I came across them from a 'Dad-Rock' mixtape performed by DJ Moneyshot who's mixtapes have introduced me to so many artists and genres. I was going to post a link to his last 'Bonfire' mix here but never really got round to it. Suppose I better post it now ...........

  2. You sure SR? ........................ perhaps it means something to you personally that goes way over my head.

     

    * shrugs *

     

    A good tune ruined by excessive sampling for me. Did remind me of this though ...............

    I'll not knock an MJ post though. ;-) .......................

    The above is my personal favourite. My youngest (7 years old) whose experience of MJ is purely media driven, idolises MJ and constantly dances around the kitchen to various MJ tunes to try and copy his dance style. I truly hope that the bullsh1t that surrounded him evapourates and all that is left is the music. It is now so difficult to try and know false fact from malicious fiction regarding his life that I tend to disbelieve all of it, good and bad, and purely judge him on what he was .......................

     

    THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER THERE EVER WAS.

  3. Really like that Caribou track, will check them out....

     

    I like QSO, which other Tru Thoughts artists do you recommend then?

     

    Nostalgia 77 without a doubt. Natural Self, Diesler, Kinny but one of favourites is Beta Hector.

    (Prefer the original of this, a more basic 'break and vocal' version)

     

    Also love the 'Broken Keys' mix of rock and soul ............

    If you're interested in their style of release I'd recommend their compilations as opposed to individual artists. 'Unfold presents Tru Thoughts Funk' sampler is one of my favourite compilations. Interestingly, Bonobo first released material through Tru-Thoughts before signing to Ninja Tune.

  4. These latest posts have reminded me that I really haven't kept up with DJ shadow's output - some great stuff. Remind me of a few electronica favourites:

     

    Any love for Bonobo here? He's got some great tracks:

     

     

     

    Yep, followed Bonobo and Fourtet as they often appear on Ninja Tune mixes. May have posted these before but worth another listen.

  5. ensure that you have the deluxe version

     

     

    Underling, give it time my friend :)

     

     

    I did get the deluxe version and my opinion still holds. Sure there is one or two 'hits' but in all honesty I picked up a couple of other albums at the same time and the Shadow LP was the least inspiring out of three buys. :angry:

     

    I may come back to it and give it another go, but I'll not rush.

  6. Another one of those AVJ sets ...............

  7. Shivers down the spine @ 52 seconds... :D I was waiting for it to break with a dum-da-dum-da-dum-da tsh-tsh but it never came! Didn't SR post this a while ago, albeit without the vocals where it did break? It was a live set I think. I might have to trawl through this thread at some point.

     

    SR did, Shadow played it in his Shadowsphere gig. Lovely track ........

     

    Picked the album up Tuesday and imho, it's a bit of a dud. That particular track unexpectedly doesn't infact break!!!! Big disappointment really but I suppose he may farm it out for remixing. My advice is to sample the LP on spotify and try and pick up any remix EPs of the tracks that suit your taste.
