Respect!

Nice stuff here... quite experimental indeed... but not completely out of a club atmosphere...


depending where you want to go to...

I normally listen to a podcast here first then read the interview. I should have done so here as I'm afraid it will taint my perspective on this producer whom I've never heard of.....

The gist of the interview:

"....shit.... cool.... rad.... shit.... fucking around.... shit.... screwing.... shit.... 2.... cus.... shit.... shit.... wanna...."

I've now listened to the whole mix. It has its moments although they are few and far between and only last a short time before he throws some shit on it and fucks it up. Ooops! I'm beginning to sound like him now!

It's always strange to read an interview of a white guy who wants to sound as cool as an OG - naamean...

The music is not bad, but those pitched down vocals are starting to get a little annoying after a while..

He's a much better producer. He should stick to that.

I'm going to go with that old saying about "if you can't say anything nice don't say anything".

The mix sounds like a really great idea...I'll leave it at that.

why the fuss? this mix actually takes me back to old ninjatune, even BOC, even the orb.. nothing revolutionary per se, but the selectah's personality is there. just chill out and listen (or not), no need to bitch about it.

For a good year or two now I've been utterly bemused by why Americans whose musical taste I respect have felt the urge to stick a bad 90s R'n'B song onto their mixes, just r e a l l y s l o w e d d o w n. Not only does it not make the music any better, it makes that part of the mix really drag. I presumed it was simply a hipster shibboleth and let it go, sometimes using Audacity to remove the offending parts.

The prospect of nearly an hour of such crap didn't really appeal. However, Shlohmo's XLR8R mix is one of my favourites ever (http://www.xlr8r.com/podcast/2009/12/shlohmo) - all fizzy Beats and joyful bleeps - so I decided to give it a go.

The first 10 minutes are pretty painful, but honestly, it gets better, and becomes really quite beautiful around 17 minutes or so. I can't say I love the last 10 minutes either. I genuinely believe that I'll listen to this mix again, some of it's really pretty good.

Shlohmo has proven that the technique isn't entirely musically bankrupt, maybe now he'll go back to the genuinely awesome music at the right speed.

It was brave of him to put this up on RA - perhaps he's not aware of how conservative most people are round here. If you want something alternative to deep house and techno, and are in the mood to chill, then skip to 17:00 and zone out. It's really not as bad as people would have you believe.

I enjoyed this mix! I like how he is mixing so many different sounds and effects with a nice subtle underlying melody. An interesting mix for sure.

Shlohmo always takes you somewhere you did not expect to go. That's enough for me and my livingroom. Plus we like it when it drags, we're tired and high.

I think I would really have liked this if I was about 15, at a rave with a handful of Ketamine.

Just not willing or able to go there.

A bit all over the place plus the sound is too full for the measly 160kbps sound space to do it any kind of justice. Interesting mix though with a couple of all-important 'moments'. For people criticising him on how he speaks, well, at the risk of stating the obvious, how he speaks isn't the point really.

His mix for FactMag was awesome. Loads of slowed down R&B and fucked up old rubbish-sounding tapes.
I've got high-hopes for this; certainly won't be expecting the standard hour of tech house.
He is a cracking producer anyway.

This is a gorgeous mix. Sometimes I think Shlohmo is the only person who understands me. He makes music that speaks to my soul or something.

"Hipster shibboleth" deserves top marks, though.

Since listening to this mix, the only opinion I can realistically give must be written in witchhouse/drag-speak:

???†??†, ?!!!

That is all. There is no English translation. ††† to you all.

can I get some ring tones Badger


That's right, the people don't come because you grandiose motherfuckers don't play shit that they like. If you played the shit that they like, then people would come, simple as that.
