Guest Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 That's pretty cool! I'm surprised they didn't put DJ Hell 'My Definition of House' on it as it's a pretty amazing track: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jasondonervan Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 All this will cost just $7.99 on iTunes. Looks great, but that reads like a distinctly non-FLAC offering to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chassis Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 They already had Blawan - Shader on IOTDXI, could they not have put another Blawan track on it. What you do with what you have is a banger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite nice. On an (almost) related note, does anyone know the track "Orpheus" by Pariah? Got it once from a $1 R&S sampler at Bleep, and it's really great. Sadly have not spotted another Pariah track yet that I like as much, but I guess there must be some? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tokn Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 "Orpheus" is a gorgeous work. It's from this EP: http://www.discogs.com/Pariah-Detroit-Falls-Orpheus/release/2234497 There is a bit more work from him, but the quality is a bit hit or miss. Amazing compilaton anyway, good to have r&s back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah is also half of Karenn. Quite different, still quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cjsinnbeck Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Not that this should turn in to a Pariah thread, but I listened to the "Safehouses" EP on Spotify today, and it's actually great - some tracks have an "Orpheus" vibe to them. (BTW, this post is even marginally related to the thread's subject, the R&S compilation, since the track Prism is both on the compilation and on that Pariah EP :-)) As for Karenn, I listened to their Boiler Room set some months ago, and it rocked :-) Thanks for reminding me.
