really low vocals urk me bad.

I like this Tom Vek tune.... I thought he sounded like a Kiwi or Ozzie, but from a wee search seems he's British?

I hadn't heard any of the artists on this thread before (well, know a few tunes each from Cee-Lo, Madlib, Aesop Rock and MF Doom), so it's been good to dig through some stuff I wouldn't otherwise listen to.

I interviewed him and Dan Snaith (was Manitoba, now Caribou) last time they were in Oz and they were both really clear that remixing being is their paid job. On the flipside Kieran was raving about how lucky he was to get remixed by J Dilla (extra lucky now that he's died so young, I guess!). So there's this curious dynamic going on between having to remix things to survive and putting in some genuine effort there.

Dan said remixing other people's tracks is basically the same process as how he writes his own music - taking interesting samples and building tracks around them - but he throws away the majority of tracks he makes that way, whereas with a remix, once you've done it you've got to pass it back to the label / original artist.

Veneer is better for the environment ;P

Come on peeps , share your good tracks.

I am crying for you, and hoping that brings me good firewire karma.

(I recently lost a 1Tb drive only for it to come back, but have no way of backing up that size).

It is rad.

Man I've always loved that GOF track, the riff is so chiggy. So Fugazi.

//new order

yeap, and the transition does work well loud!

//fugazi

phwor, your talking to a dumbarse fugazi fanboy (union hall gigs anyone?). i only really found GOF after TheRapture put out that House of Jealous Lovers tracks a few years ago. Latecomer and loved them ever since really but still it seems like GOF are a bit "too cool" again these days anyways.

good call

o oops i didn't read the rules.

hehe, check out the topic nod.

Come on Danny don't fuck it up... I can't even find a mention of that Iggy Pop song on google. If we're not supposed to add more until we've listened to everything that kinda screws the thread.
