i like that lp Yes

silly old naphta Roll

Hahaha
Load a shite Hahaha

Fine if you like 'tidy' beats Grin and 'neat' little arrangements Grin

But for an LP by the guy who brought us the early Inta Warriors stuff, and 'The Warning' / 'Structure Of Red'? Roll

NEIN! Twisted

Stop playing different beats that will get you nowhere.

ive never heard anyhting by him of any great note personally

that james bond remix (moby ) ? Hahaha

and that cd he did on SONY records was one of the worst mixes ive ever heard, some great tunes massacred by train wrecks. I cant beleive sony didnt turn round and say sort it out. Or that he didnt have any selfrespect or pride and want to mix it well. Almost any mix by bedroom djs is better than that.

i mean some arent bad (the ubiquituos jack the ripper) but still nothing groundbreaking or that memorable. Compared to what some of the people at the time were doing its crap. Skycutter, ed&op&nico&trace.

Didnt know whether to post this or not, i know opinions are allowed Teef but normally dont post 'hate', just ignore it (if youve got nothing nice to say, dont say anything, as my mum used to say), but i just never got why people were into this. Intersting, had exactly the same conversation with grappa the other day.

Having said that, it pisses all over a lot of what the old producers are vomitting up these days Icon_cry

having said all that, its been years since i heard it so ill have another listen.

And max respect to him , been in the game fro years and has done a huge amount to forward this scene. He was mint at a metalheadz gig i saw, selection was flawless. Just a shame he didnt spot the pitch controls at the side of the record players...
shame his album will never come out
i really wanted fuck the pussy , skies and fucking hard work Icon_cry
that charade tune is fucking great.

me and wigwig want it, someone send us it....

did this get a release? man....

Promo only, keep an eye on ebay as that's where I got it from although Phokus is keeping his eye out for this as well

Found it for £2 a little while ago Icon_yippee
one of his greatest tunes & easily in my top 10 of all time tunes is

his remix of Bjork.

don't know the title but i remember hearing it & thinking this is something special.

mr. optical

album has optical written all over it

no, this is grooverider's album
the only opticalish thing about it is the cleanliness of the production
but the sounds are not optical at all

......Chin.....hmmmm may have to re listen to that.

i always believed it was optical through and through.
