feel free to comment on soundcloud on a time and ask what artists are playing. i can easily identify it for you.

the artist list may seem like it's going to be more experimental or difficult but its actually a very dancey set.

Just finished this, really awesome mix. Can't believe you did this live, very impressive. I don't recognize a lot of this but then something I know will pop up for a few seconds and gradually fade back out again, really great selection.

 

Would love to know the songs in a couple different sections. At 18-20 minutes there's a very Krautrock/Berlin School type synth track with a rolling bassline and a kind of brassy synth with trumpet in the back. May be a few different tracks but it works really well. The other one is a pretty upbeat happy synth melody kicking in at 43-45 minutes, with harmonizing vocals on top. Also may be a few different songs but I'd love to know the artists involved in both of these parts.

thanks much! that synthy/brassy line you're hearing is from the opening 10 seconds of the Vagenlis' Heaven and Hell, it gets mixed in later with a song by Herbie Hancock called 'rain dance' probably his most experimental song, i wish he made other stuff like it. off the lp 'sextant'

 

 

Vangelis' 'heaven and hell' pt 1

that quirky drum beat is from a Patrick Cowley song that i'm having trouble identifying. I don't *think* anything else is playing during that part

I'm actually mashing up 2-3 separate parts from this track on top of each-other with the depeche mode. There is another kind of proto acid loop in there too that im not sure of i think its from the 60s ill find out

his pre-84 stuff was only released on cassette and it's pretty legendary - theres none of that stuff on youtube tho. his other 80s stuff is still cool - he was kind of a cross between '70s TD and Paul Hardcastle

thanks man, ups to your goldwave mix btw. I think you and i are one of the only people here who still use stereo wave editors to do beat matching. I've been trying to branch out with abelton and traktor but i always keep getting sucked back into Cooledit.

and yeah soundcloud is amazing, its like a non shitty version of myspace
