    Deep Dish is a group from DC, and also the name of their label.
They released what I think is probably the best house album of the
year, and maybe the best deep house album by an artist I've ever
heard. It came out last month, and is called 'Junk Science'.
Anyway, one of the deep dish guys went to high school with BT,
and they got together sometime in the '93-'94 vicinity and started
the Deep Dish label in order to release a song they had written, as
well as one by BT, who was still going by Brian Transeau at the
time. They split over some financial arguments in '95 but are back
on good terms now. He released 2 songs prior to the stuff on IMA
(as far as I know) and they are both available on the Deep Dish
compilation (mixed by sharam and dubfire who are deep dish)
'Penetrate Deeper', which was ditributed on a wide scale by Tribal
America (which is now defunct). I don't know if you can still find it
or not, but if it's still available, you should be able to get it at
blockbuster by special order (that's where mine came from). It's an
awesome cd, 75 minutes of blissful deep house.

a cd that I picked up this last summer.  DJ Icey - Generate.  Some of his
tunes could be a bit quicker, but alot of the tunes on this album sound very
Orbital-esque to me and figure some of you may want to check it out.  If

I must agree, the Deep Dish album is EXCELLENT.  Not what I expected
from a house CD in 98 seeing as how house music is almost dead (at
least, I hope).
As far as the Penetrate Deeper compilation (which I am purchasing at
work on Friday because of the Carl Craig track)-it was recently put out
of print.  The store I work at had 2 copies in stock, but I sold one
about a month back and like I said Im buying the remaining copy.  It
shouldnt be hard to find this used or in clearance at least.

Subject: (orbital) Nothing Records/Warp

For those of you who care-4 titles from Warp records will be available
in the US through Nothing records.  The titles are:

Autechre-LP5
Plaid-Not For Threes
Squarepusher-Big Loada (special edition different from import)
Squarepusher-Music Is Rotted One Note

The first 3 titles were "released" yesterday even though most stores
dont have them because we didnt receive the order sheets for them till
last Friday.  Squarepusher's new album was slated to be released on the
same day as the import (Oct13th) but was pushed back a week because of
artwork problems.
Also, those of you who have been hoping to see Booth and Brown on tour
in the US will be sad to find out that the planned US appearances aside
from the NYC show this month have been postponed till next year. :( This
could change at anytime, but this is the current status.
One last thing-those of you who are lucky enough to have access to XLR8R
magazine will have an opportunity to get a free nothing records
electronic music sampler featuring tracks by plaid, Ae, Squarepusher,
Plug and the Bowling Green.  If you dont have access to this mag, your
local indie record store can call nothing records or caroline
distribution to beg fro some of these samplers.

Ok, does anyone have the Japanese Radiccio besides me? And on the Japanese
topic, I remember a while back people were talking about the different In
Sides releases. The one with the Box, the one with Halcyon live, and the
Single Disc release. Well, in Japan here they have another release, maybe 2.
They have a single Disc which is the same as the First Disc in my set (I
think) but it has the Saint on that disc too. Then, the other 2 Disc set, has
I think a similar track listing to the Halcyon 2CD, but it doesn't have
Halcyon. I think it goes, Saint, Satan, Sinner, Something else, then either
Chime live or Impact live. Anyone have this one? LAter.

House isn't dead and never has been. There's just a lot of crap house
around (and has been for years) and that gets most of the attention. Decent
house of the last two or so years: Two Lone Swordsmen's 'Swimming not
Skimming', Global Communication 'The Way/ The Deep', and the remixes of The
Beloved's 'The Sun Rising', to name just three. It's a shame house (and
techno for that matter) gets such a bad reputation thanks to all the crap.

Well LP5 was the cause for much talk when it came out, and Autechre was a
hot subject all through may and june... and a bit around august 1st when
they did their 3 location flash-tour of canada... Hell I still have
nightmares featuring Dave Kristian's performance (on a side note)....

I think that LP5 is noisy, that its musical worth is minimal if not
nonexistant. After giving it months of regular listening I can't seem to get
to really like it. The line between music and random noise may have been
stretched to snapping this time. Amber was fantastic, TriRepetae was daring,
Cichli suite was a limit... LP5 is over the edge.  Their live set was
"interesting", yes, you can see that they have quite mastered their
equipment, however all they did was beats, only beats, with rythtmic and
bass synths over, and lots of randomness, and even though randomness is a
part of beauty to quote Beaudelaire, expression is, too and there is no
expression that I can feel in this. Could be me, but could be them. I can't
say I was terribly excited either by their gig or album. They are going
steadilly downhill imho. They still have my faith, for having made such
amazing pieces as Amber, Garbage, Incunabula and to some extent TriRepetae,
and I will buy their next album blind, but I'm affraid it'll just be worse.
I think that even though it was a close call, Autechre do not deserve to be
put on the same step as Orbital and Underworld on the near-top of the music
I love.

I realise that house isnt dead yet and that there is alot of shit out
there that gives the good stuff a bad name-trust me, its my job to order

Im surprised at the amount of people that consider the Swimming Not
Skimming album to be house music.  I never really thought of it as that
before.  I once heard the label describe it as techno but thats a catch
all nowadays I assume.  Of course, everyone sez the new 16B album is
deep house (including 16B himself) when it really doesnt strike me as
being such.

So many fuckin terms...so little time I suppose. ;)

I suppose you could call it techno, and there's some ambient and some
electro on there too. I'll relent and call it housey techno, how's that? ;-)

I'd have no questions that the 16B mix on Swimming not Skimming is deep
house.

And so much mixing of styles too. Which is no bad thing.

I do take into consideration that this is just your opinion, but I do have
to say, you have odd taste.  LP5 was absolutely amazing and what made it so
amazing is how they took just noises and made them so perfect and beautiful.
It is very daring, but if it weren't, then it wouldn't be Autechre.  They
have always been on the leading edge and as other groups begin to do what
they do, they have to move on to new territory.  It's a real shame that you
can't appreciate this album like I do.  A lot of people find that it's just
too much all at once which makes it hard to take in.  I do agree that their
live set should have had more then just the beats, but that night at the
Palladium (club I saw them in) was one of the highlights of the summer.
just my thoughts on the matter so no one think that this is a flame, just an
objective.

Just the mention of the orb then just brought the thought into my head
about the fact that Little Fluffy clouds seems to be getting a fair bit of
play on MTV (Europe) at the moment.  Anyone any ideas why this is?

Method's Busy Child--- Have you noticed at the end it says "Khakies
Rock" ...ehhhh what???! Thats not rock!!! ...TECHNO! errrr... i cant

I actually thought the VW commerical with the Orb was pretty darn good.
I love VW's and even more, The Orb =) made me happy.

Well I love LP5 (and all other Ae I've got except for perhaps Incunabula),
but I reckon a lot of people wouldn't like it because there are few, if
any, traditional-style hooks on it, like tunes and hummable bits. I mean,
can you imagine the milkman whistling the decelerating beat on fold4wrap5?


>It is very daring, but if it weren't, then it wouldn't be Autechre.

And an inevitable effect of being daring is that some people won't like it.

Jon

Yes, it's arguably the original techno (oh apart from Kraftwerk, etc,
etc.... but I'm not getting into that one again). Imagine if techno was
really funky. Direct Beat records from Detroit specialise in it. And it's
really good. Give Dynamix II's 'Electro Megamix', Dave Clarke's 'Electro
Boogie' compilations, the Breakin' records comp 'Volume 1' and Direct
Beat's 'Techno Bass - the mission' comp a listen. Oh, and look out for
I-F's 'Space invaders are smoking grass', THE electro tune of last year.


>I'm not being a smartass, I really am curious...

Curiosity is a good thing.

Like what? To my knowledge Orbital have only released four albums. Five if
you count Diversions, and I guess six if you count the US and UK versions
of the first one a two albums. And about twenty or thirty if you count all
the varieties of Insides with or without The Saint and /or bonus discs ;-)

Its has also been getting a lot of air play on one of the Boston US radio
stations, probably more to do
with the VW add than anything else, still a nice change to the shite they
usually play   =p

I think the Orb has a greatest hits album out soon, that may explain
it's sudden prominence.

Heres some info for us stateside if anyone this way enjoys the Orb as I do(=o)
http://www.theorb.com/u.f.off/index.html
IF you listen to the realaudio remix called: (adam freeland tsunami one remix)
one can definitely hear some FSOL samples looped in there.  Specifically from
We Have Explosive=o)
The other tune they have for Realaudio pleasure is the title called UfOff, its
got alot of juicy samples from Enigma 3.(;o)

piece,
