The dual intro thing and hologram are pretty awesome.
thats what you get to do when you own your own recording studio / record pressing shop . Jack White has the set up here in Detroit and Nashville. https://thirdmanrecords.com/
exactly how I was able to discover a lot of new music
These 4 LPs have aged pretty well, still inspirational. Each track creates a scenery in the minds eye. After their mainstream success with âThe Raceâ in the later 80ies I lost intrest in the band. Every new song after that sounded the same to me.
These are rad. Def checking them out.
Donât know how I missed this thread! Quite an avid record collector but itâs dorpped off a bit since I started soending all my spare cash on electrical kit and art supplies⌠Mostly collect UK Dance stuff - vinyl is still the primary medium (imo) for dubstep, drum and bass, jungle that kind of thing. Got a few good dubplates over the years which is fun. Also collect dub/reggae (but itâs far too expensive for the good stuff), little bits of techno here and there and weirdly a little pocket of 70s gospel music (theyâre a sample goldmine).
Fav bits in my collection are probably a dubplate of this I got before general release:
And some of the old Tom and Jerry stuff, which has turned pretty collectable as of late
That Gorgon Sound is pretty epic. How would you classify that? Sounds like dub and jungle without the amen break and half tempo. Or, rather, not double tempo.
So within the scene itâs what people might call steppas? But people usually just use that word more like an adjective for dub tracks that are kinda 4x4 and very synth bass heavy and that. It was a big sound for UK soundsystems in the early 90s and influenced a lot of the hardcore/jungle stuff around then, so thatâs probably where youâre getting it from. But itâs a bit heavier than a lot of the older stuff - Gorgon Sound is an alias for Kahn and Neek, who are both pretty staple names of the UK dubstep/grime/soundsystem scene (and Iâm very much a fanboy of - Kahn especially!)
If you want more steppas stuff check out Iration Steppas - they were the masters of it really (still are tbh!)
And my fav Gorgon Sound track:
This tune was near mythical for a while, only got played at the best raves!
not my preferred genre but the 2nd is a badass killer
I find it difficult to accept that I missed this as a genre in the nineties. More than anything, I love the Berlin dub techno stuffâBurial Mix, Basic Channel, Rhythm and Soundâfrom that time and I really dig King Tubby style dub. I always liked the mid-nineties jungle and yet, Iâve never really come across anything like this. Here comes another YouTube rabbit hole to go down
Ah man Moritz von Oswald and Mark Ernestus are two of the best the to ever do it! Absolutely love all the Burial Mix stuff. Deffo splashed more than my share on King Tubby and the Scientist stuff too
These must be some of the earliest records i bought (79-81). I found TD always a little too mellow for my taste, but theyâre great nevertheless.

Having heard full orchestras in great concert halls (e.g. Berliner Philharmoniker playing Le Sacre du Printemps) I question the concept of recreating classical music with electronic instruments but the man is a legend and did a pretty good job back in the late 70ies.
Bought more vinyl today. This one was on my wantlist for quite a while. A classic disco track from 1979.
But only the original version bringes back my teen memories, of dancing to Strobelight and flavoured chemical fog
Looks nice, what is it ?
Itâs the Colin Benders album, âFloaty Things,â that he gave away.
