Swamp 81 thread
Re: Swamp 81 thread
saw him earlier this year and thought his set was uninspiring aswel. good mixing etc but track selection was a bit boring
Re: Swamp 81 thread
Hmmm, beginning to rethink getting my tickets to see him b2b with Jackmaster in a few weeks
Re: Swamp 81 thread
Joy O should just make a 60 min long edit of HYPH MNGO.
Re: Swamp 81 thread

Rated that tune more than Hackney, altho big up the identical strings.
Hackney Parrot/Monica would've been a mad 12
Yeah but Nancy's Pantry tho

Loefah remixing Faze Miyake which should be getting a release is good news, hopefully more on the Western tip rather than those bits in the Unoman mix.
Re: Swamp 81 thread
yeah the solitaire tracks seem to be almost universally disliked lol, i agree to be honest they're pretty boring and i don't enjoy the trap vibe that they give offMuncey wrote:Loefah remixing Faze Miyake which should be getting a release is good news, hopefully more on the Western tip rather than those bits in the Unoman mix.

grand master is pretty good, and i don't think champion is absolute trash either, just a bit boring. but i feel like it's meant to be that way, sort of an opener/bridge tune.Scherou wrote:yeah the solitaire tracks seem to be almost universally disliked lol, i agree to be honest they're pretty boring and i don't enjoy the trap vibe that they give offMuncey wrote:Loefah remixing Faze Miyake which should be getting a release is good news, hopefully more on the Western tip rather than those bits in the Unoman mix.
tbh saying they have a trap vibe is just ignorance of his back catalog, listen to something like its yours from 6 years ago and you'll hear that he's really just going back to a lot of his older ways, especially with the way he's using film samples
Re: Swamp 81 thread
I know his back catalog man haha i'm a serious loefah fan, one of my fav dubstep producers and the tracks he used to make i love, got a lot of it on vinyl... the 'trap vibe' i'm referring to is his use of hi hats in grand master, it's a fairly minor thingPhigure wrote:grand master is pretty good, and i don't think champion is absolute trash either, just a bit boring. but i feel like it's meant to be that way, sort of an opener/bridge tune.Scherou wrote:yeah the solitaire tracks seem to be almost universally disliked lol, i agree to be honest they're pretty boring and i don't enjoy the trap vibe that they give offMuncey wrote:Loefah remixing Faze Miyake which should be getting a release is good news, hopefully more on the Western tip rather than those bits in the Unoman mix.

edit: just realised i used the word 'they' in my first post, i was only talking about grand master. even though champion is arguably a more dislikable tune
Re: Swamp 81 thread
Yeah not really saying they're shit but they are a bit boring and certainly wouldn't fit a Faze Miyake remix.. hope he just strips it back and adds his signature knock ya over sub low bass.Phigure wrote:grand master is pretty good, and i don't think champion is absolute trash either, just a bit boring. but i feel like it's meant to be that way, sort of an opener/bridge tune.Scherou wrote:yeah the solitaire tracks seem to be almost universally disliked lol, i agree to be honest they're pretty boring and i don't enjoy the trap vibe that they give offMuncey wrote:Loefah remixing Faze Miyake which should be getting a release is good news, hopefully more on the Western tip rather than those bits in the Unoman mix.

It was just sort of endless house rollers, but not in a good way.
He played one or two "harder" more techno ish tunes that were really good, as well as the classics (swims, etc), but the rest just didn't seem to go anywhere and felt a bit disjointed. Hard to explain really as some DJs can make a roller set that just captures you in the dance and an hour goes in 5 minutes, but it just didn't gel for me.
You know when you can tell even the DJ isn't enjoying his set? It felt like that.

Re: Swamp 81 thread
Thats how I would describe it at WHP last saturday, which was a shame as i usually rate his sets.
Re: Swamp 81 thread
Yeah I was a little disappointed by his set, was shocking compared to his b2b with Boddika last year.Johnlenham wrote:Thats how I would describe it at WHP last saturday, which was a shame as i usually rate his sets.
Re: Swamp 81 thread
^I'm hoping cos it's b2b with Jackmaster, it'll be quality when I see him
EDIT: Just seen Sebmann & Llesca/Georgia Girls are playing on the same night for 2 quid, might just fuck it off for that, after the bad reviews he's been getting here recently

Re: Swamp 81 thread
Dunno, Jack is still a don. Depends how much it is I guess.
Re: Swamp 81 thread
I saw Joy like 2 week ago in liverpool and it was like pure techno with some housier stuff thrown in but mostly just a really dark techno tip. He was following person sound who had also played pretty much an hours set of even darker techno so that might have had influence
Re: Swamp 81 thread
this probably isn't the right place to ask but can anyone ID this tune that Boddika has been playing out the past few months?
you're not wrong, you're just an asshole
