answer this for i please, because i do not know, and discogs is not my cuppa.
technical itch - focused when and where was this track released? it's feckin' awesome. lurchy, dirty, oily, steely, mechanical, cogs turning, distorted, can smash boulders, can drill deep in life's memory bank.

![]() Techstep as it should be.... a simple, but effective melody-hook, slow-heavy-a bit distorted drums, some reverb .... ![]()

^^^ nice, Technical Itch "Focused" was a nice track, haven't heard it a long time, still have the "Diagnostics" cd somewhere. Good call Muttster.
Dom & Roland "Aliens"... that's pretty fab. Love the spliced distorted amens. I still have the Shadow100 12" with the Andy C & Ant Miles / Desired State "Distorted Dreams" remix, but I never owned the original version. Nice banger for sure. "Drones" is good too, never owned the wax.

I was/am a big fan of Dave Akuma from way back when.. I used to check dude's early soundclick page if I remember correctly (remember the original soundclick site?? lol)
for vibe & production over all. DARK ... clips & links from the darkstep.org forum too, remember that?? damn... i haven't thought of that in decades. ha. for real, Akuma had it right.

I've been a big fan of Narratives Music over the past few years. I feel that Blocks and Escher do a very complete job on what they do. I like that there's always this slight, direct nod to the classic techstep vibes underlying some of the label's stuff, bridging old & new, or more recent stuff over the years.
abstract diversions of techstep in recent years, imo. Narrative Music joints, and the Jubei, Goldie, Blocks and Escher remix.

King Cannibal was doing some great stuff back when.
Listened to the "Let The Night Roar" 2009 lp this past weekend. Still a great release imo. Once again, diversions.. but definitely techstep in soul.

I didn't buy much of the overt, dark "double kick dnb" (that's what I called it back then..heh) that was all over the place a few years back - Gein, Dylan, dj Hidden, SPL, Donny, Limewax, Obscene Recs, Tech Freak Recs, and the whole bit. I listened to the mixes tho. As a general Current Value fan from the early Position Chrome days, I bought some Current Value "double kick stuff" from back then, but never dj-ed with the tunes or anything. The tunes were more for geeking out too, than going out and listening in a club or whatever. I did see Evol Intent in that era, great set on loud club speakers for sure. Definitely MORE interesting to hear out live than the dredge of pedestrian, continuous, easy to mix 2step dnb break tunes most local dj's were playing out @ local weeklies.
From the era and style, I like this Dj Producer tune on Killing Sheep.

(7th January 2018, 16:10)+ToRMeNT+ Wrote: Photek - Baltimore What is that stupid structure so many of those tunes from 2003-2004 seem to have had, that sort of two bars of a big rowdy synth with a steppy beat, followed with two bars of boinging sub-bass now with a second break, most typically amen, being furiously retriggered in time I hate it ![]()

^^ I think it was just more of a dance floor thing, harder tunes that still had a purpose to get reaction on the floor right? That just so happened to be the formula then. I do recall a specific Dillinja - esque formula then as well.. maybe Dillinja style tunes as direct influence on harder tunes meant to be dj-ed out back then?
Based on your comments, you'll hate this tune too Ornette ![]() I didn't buy much Dillinja after the "Cybotron" lp era myself. |
