Small venues are dropping off like flies... but new ones *are* popping up. The Pickle Factory is excellent, Shapes is shite, Rye Wax is becoming more prolific, DIY Space is great... Never been to any of those but they're on the list. What's Dance Tunnel like? Probably won't get a chance to go there before Glastonbury but might try and fit it in before it goes.

Ehh depends on the night, either it'll be half sold out and amazing, or half sold out and shit, or fully rammed and pretty difficult. Sound is really good tho. One of those places where the crowd can really make it. Make it down to Pickle Factory if you can - ran by Oval Space and it's just over the road. Rye Wax is a recrord store underneath Bussey Building in Peckham and you can get in there on some particularly big nights. They run some good free stuff from sort of 7-11pm in the week as well - things like SIREN (their description of themselves: "SIREN: a female collective focused on forward thinking movements in dance music. no bullshit, just dancing. ") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second the Pickle Factory. Would be getting myself down to Prins Thomas there on Friday if I didn't have (shitty family) plans I can't get out of.

Right in the middle of exam time for me, but it'll be soooo good. I know what I'm like... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuzzyDunlop Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 My favourite techno tune of the moment, could be up Ben's street this one: Has anyone ever seen ANNA? I like quite a few remixes, never heard a set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like quite a few remixes, never heard a set I could only enjoy, what, 4-5 hours of this sort of stuff, Fuzz! Beautiful, old style, 'simple' techno. Lovely looping pulses, enough variation on the hi-hat to keep each section fresh, predictable little drops that you know are coming, but enjoy them never the less. Yes, bring it. Ben Edit: and not a shitty, entirely superfluous vocal sample to ruin it, either! Edited April 12, 2016 by bennyhana22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubenz Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 (edited) This is an older one but a large banger nevertheless, can people point me in the direction of DJs to check out on the techno side of things?

FuzzyDunlop Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 @bennyhana22 - glad you like. Im about to listen to Floating Points on your recommendation (after the match).

Anyone here like Adult Jazz? I bloody love them (Gist Is was my record of 2014). Not strictly electronica but (a) the new song - and allegedly new mini-LP - are much more electronic and (b) I wondered if the discerning folks of this lovely thread like 'em...?

White Bear Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 The Avalanches just announced for Primavera. Would be unreal to see them at GF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyDunlop Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Floating Points.... I did really enjoy it. Quite different to what I usually listen to, but I enjoyed it. The production is sharp, the synths are clear and the kind of sounds I enjoy. It's quite a "dreamy - lose yourself in the music" album. It's something I can imagine really enjoying as a warm up for whats to come. (Possibly before Sigur Ros?) It doesn't quite kick in for me though. I was just hoping something a little darker or heavier would happen, even if only for a tune, but it is definitely an album I will be revisiting again soon. Highlight - Silhouettes (I,II,III), which is fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think perhaps that may have just wooshed over you There was always a story of a version of the Avalanches album that had many more samples in than the released version, but which never came out due to clearance issues. It supposedly lives online somewhere. I wonder if anybody knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
