[dodgepot]

oooh nice bass

 

[JTG]

Album by more rockers is "bass is maternal" it is indeed a nice album

Smith & Mighty

Actually

 

[Fozzie Bear]

LOL this thread is as wrong as "your top ten DnB/Jungle seven inch singles"

1. Timeless
2. That first T Power one
3. Naphta - Long Time Burning
4. Aphrodite
5. Probably a Congo Natty one but I haven't got any, just twelves the way god intended it.
6. That's it, unless you count the DJ Scud compilation on Rephlex

 

[Fozzie Bear]

Talking of "Timeless", I've managed to survive all these years with the single CD version.

Is it worth me hearing the double CD, or is it the same plus extra mixes and filler?

(I quite enjoyed listening to Photek's "Hidden Camera" recently too)

 

[ska invita]

Manix - Living in the Past
Grooverider - Prototype Years (a label compilation, but I think it counts)
Dillinja - Cybertron
LTJ Bukem ‎– Logical Progression (another label comp)
DJ SS - The Rollers Convention <<<really recommend checking this out, not mentioned yet.
Goldie - Timeless
A Guy Called Gerald - Black Secret Technology
Makoto - Being Human
4Hero - 2 Pages
High Contrast - True Colours ‎

slightly confusing as different CD releases have different tracks (the US single CD has a couple of remixes on it for example)...but if we compare these two UK releases:
single CD: http://www.discogs.com/Goldie-Timeless/release/11681
double CD: http://www.discogs.com/Goldie-Timeless/release/2399
The extra tracks are:
This Is A Bad
A Sense Of Rage (Sensual V.I.P. Mix)
Jah The Seventh Seal
Still Life
....which are all big tracks, no filler, so yeah i reckon you want it! Especially A Sense Of Rage (Sensual V.I.P. Mix) which is amazing....still gives me goosepimles


you can pick up a CD for about £2 on discogs

Great to know! I will do that!

 

[ska invita]

Great to know! I will do that!

its is a seminal album, might as well get a good edition. Ive got it on vinyl, which misses a bunch of tracks, plus ive lost one of the two plates, so not doing too well.

But since we're talking about TImeless check out this new remix of Angel, great update:

[cozmikbrew]

3of mine(Aphrodite,Ed Rush&Optical,Adam F)to be grabbed here,always liked T Powers ''Self evident truth of an intuiative mind'' aswell,must track a copy down

 

[ska invita]

Sonar Circle - Radius

need to check that....in similar territory Alpha Omega, Journey To The 9th Level ‎ is well worth a listen

 

[ska invita]

Finally got around to listening to the 4hero album parallel universe (as mentioned on the manix thread and by steph ) - its a great LP

 

[Sirena]

It's not totally a single artiste album but this fine offering from No U Turn was a bit of a classic
http://www.discogs.com/Various-Torque/release/12101

Nico had a brilliant studio too

Need to check that - I really loved the experimentalism/abstract end of D'n'B (bordering into broken beat at times) that the Reinforced '2nd wave' were doing around then - Sonar, Alpha Omega, G-Force & Seiji, Nucleus and Paradox, etc.

Great studio! That whole Tech Step sound didn't do anything for me though. I really liked early No U Turn up until that point.

 

[ska invita]

just listening to Rufige Kru - Memoirs Of An Afterlife
its brilliant - didnt know it existed even (apart from a couple of the tracks on it)

its on spotify along with lots of metalheadz stuff

Source Direct "Exorcise The Demons" has a handful of good tracks but doesn't really work as an album... not bad for 3 quid though.

Oh i dunno.

I didn't buy Modus Operandi by Photek when it came out in 1997 because I figured it would be a bit coffee table.

Scored a copy the other day on ebay for £2.20 inc p&p. And it IS a bit coffee table in places, but is pretty good.

There's a receipt in it from HMV in 1997 for £16.49!

So this thread (and being a suspicious cheapskate in your twenties) can, er, save you money. Sorta.
