[Dj Nexius]

HUGE! to bad i cant come

[DjLantern]

nice one!

old school classic dubstep?

[Hitoi]

Perhaps some EW&F?

[joenice]

nice one!

old school classic dubstep?nah peter. old school 80's. all those tunes that were in the basement. i've got loads of Hall&Oates, Culture Club, New Edition, Stevie Wonder and Duran Duran to drop on everyone.

plus some other surprises that i dont want to jinx.

[joenice]

plus....i havent rinsed out those Bobby Brown & Johnny Gill albums in years. I've got some Al B. Sure in the mix..just for fun.

this is gonna be interesting to say the least.

[Hitoi]

Man. This is going to be like Nite and Day.

I had to do it.

[LadyTrouble]

Jan 5th is a very very special day ;-)

[joenice]

Man. This is going to be like Nite and Day.

I had to do it.brilliant !

[godfather sage]

Jan 5th is a very very special day ;-)

come and get your complimentary birthday shot(s)

[joenice]

tomorrow night !!!

[decoy]

oh my gosh! this souds awesome!

I'm totally coming out for this.

although, I think joe should play dnb.

[Hitoi]

No no no no no. I would normally agree but I heard that Coolin' song by Heavy D on the ride into work this morning and it just made tomorrow's choice of genre that much more appealing!

[Winterman]

Hah, that would be funny if Joe played D&B, and I played Dubstep, and maybe Kian could play Trance?...

[godfather sage]

well lately people have been saying that the music i make now is trance, so i might as well start playing it... :bricks:

(Sianfroncco you know the time with this one)

[Sianfroncco]

LOL!!!! Not necessarily trance... but the elements that can surround a trance track are definitely present within some of your stuff. Either way, I figgity f*cks with what you make man. And btw... there ain't nothing wrong with Trance. Thats right I said it. WUT!

[n3u7r0n]

last week was a lot of fun.

This week will even be better im sure

[christauff]

I don't know where you two get the idea that Kian is making trance. It's phat beats and techy house IMHO. Always good stuff though. I just might be able to make tomorrow.

[Sianfroncco]

I make that statement on the strength of two particular tracks. However, again I said that, its not necessarily trance. In fact, its not trance at all. There are trance like elements that exist within his tracks... such as the dreamy, echoed female voices, the floating surrounding ambience, and light chord progressions. Many genres of music have such elements as welll... ranging from house to even DnB. Take a listen to Global Communications remix of Lamb-Gorecki, which is an example what I mean from DnB. Either way, in no way am I implying that he is making trance.

Blended

i was mainly referring to what some of these girls out here say when i play my shit for em... yall know me, i dont deal with too many girls from the edm scene, mainly hiphop/r&b chics instead. when i was making dnb it was easy for them to identify as dnb, but now that i've switched to 124bpm, all of a sudden i'm TRANCE. ha

[joenice]

hmmm....maybe.

Heaps of fun tonight. Classics were dropped all night. The showerface and the windmill were in effect.

Shooby doo bop shoo doo bop.

:affection:

[decoy]

hey moe, was that track that you dropped with the pulp fiction quote and surf gituar a remix you did? I vaguely remembering hearing a similar track whilst looking for records, but I don't remember it being as cool. I think you said something about "I fixed it" :confused:

at any rate, BIG CHOON!!

[joenice]

No way.....this is sad news.

Hah... I think that track is called "Pump Friction" by Unknown Artist. I guess they were afraid of getting sued... They used samples from the Pulp Fiction Soundtrack... Biggups!

[joenice]

for those that were there...what was the tune of the night?

My choice; Moe dropping "Aint No Half Steppin' " by Big Daddy Kane. and I thought i had some classics.....

serious windmill action.....

[decoy]

huh, it sounded alot better than in sound clip form I guess.

[Winterman]

yeah, I passed on pump friction the first time i heard it also, but luckily the second time I heard it I picked it up. I like how the whole tune plays out!

Biggups Joe! You playing the hot 80's beats gave me all kinds of ideas for production, a lot of good tunes bro!
Much thanks to Kian as well for having me thru and Biggups to everyone that came!
