What non-techno are you listening to right now?

[Ben Kohonays]

When you listen to the foundation of this track it's incredibly simple, couple of moogy bass notes and a little guitar lick, but soooo funky and infectious.

Really nice mix by Joe (hessle audio) with a cover of that. A real fave.

I thought it was about time I gave some of my money to these guys. They're an influence for what I (try to) do and one should show support imo.

Stravinsky died 50 years ago this day. The Rite of Spring is one of my favourite classical pieces. The weather is as quirky as the music: hail, snow, rain, sun and heavy gusts of wind over here.

[Críoch]

Cool. I listen to a lot of classical music on the radio when I'm out. Don't know what most / if any of it is.. but I always enjoy it.

Incredible really how much of it is buried somewhere deep in my mind. I enjoy getting surprised by what I hear. There can be major differences between a version done by one orchestra compared to another. It's pretty inspiring for rhythms, motifs & call / response stuff.

Until the 20th century music, one can only guess what the composer really had in mind. Only crude descriptions of tempo and feel, what about groove/swing? The room pieces were intended to be played in were important (you can say that about techno as well).
I've attended quite a few orchestral rehearsals for my job, and it always amazes me how a conductor points out what he wants to hear, and how fast these professional musicians pick this up. "ok, let's take measure 187, trombones a bit more staccato, and strings come in a bit softer... yes that's good. now measure 201, more powerful everyone..."

That's such a perfect record! I'll have a dance with it every 3 months, and then I usually get obsessed about for a week at a time

This is also a favourite of mine, and it's one of those albums I dig up once in a while and play it over and over for a few days. Not every three months anymore, maybe every two years. A tribute to Jack Johnson is a nice change. Together with Sketches of Spain, those are my three favourite Miles Davis albums.

listening to a lot of dream pop currently..

My favorite "mainstream" dance act. Epitomizes the 90 for me.

Yeah it's been a while, put the album on in the car while driving about and a) forgot how good some of this stuff is, and b) there's not really a duff track on the album. (although the one with the Betty Boo bassline is teetering on the edge)

I love to listen old rock, mainly Dire Straits, Queen, Eagles etc. Love the sound and mood of that era. I have learned a lot production and mix wise listening to their interviews that you can incorporate in electronic music. If im not in the mood for rock then i like to listen to old school boom bap tracks and sometimes even dnb/jungle.
