Dreamy Days

Doureuh! So I just got back from an amazing 4 days at Dour festival in sunny Belgium and thought I'd share some highlights.

Photobucket

First up is Roots Manuva's dub rework of his album 'Run Come Save Me'. Manuva impressively managed to pull of a festival hiphop set without it sounding rehearsed or sing-along whilst keeping the crowd moving. Except clearly being tired of 'Witness' he seemed to be loving his set and kept laughing at the crowd's wack dancing and costumes. This album is not the most obvious choice but it shows off the dubwise heritage of Manuva's sound and is a solid piece of work in it's own right.

Next is the latest release from the producer behind what was probably my favourite set of the weekend. Proxy's dirty techno sound was perfectly suited to the massive, strobe-filled dance tent at 1:30 on Friday night. Starting out with an epic war of the worlds sounding intro, he played a blinding set which felt far shorter than an hour!

To finish, here's a release from Ratatat which is dominated by the 9 minute rework by the Animal Collective. Having bought the hype around 'Merriweather Post Pavillon', I was excited to see hear how the album's acid-folk madness would translate in a live show. I was not disappointed. Starting out slowly with layers of whirling noise which gradually rose and the fell back in on themselves, the set resulted in a noticable section of the crowd falling into a near coma and sitting / lying on the dusty floorboards for most of the set. Bliss.

Hearing Goldie dropping Be True on the valve soundsystem was a highlight of last year's warehouse project. Commix' rolling basslines filled the cavernous space from wall to wall and brought the dance to a standstill.

The same tune also synchs perfectly with this BBC footage of the London to Brigton railway:

Two Sides of the Same Coin

Here's a couple of releases from the brain of Dylan Richards. First is a debut release as King Cannibal with the AGT Rave Cru, both sides of which are pure evil.

Photobucket

Next is a newer, solo release which got airplay from Mary Anne Hobbs and is about as grimey as they come. Dark, bassy heavy and acid fueled.

King Cannibal - Aragami Style

Label: Ninja Tune
Catalog#: ZEN12219
Format: Vinyl, 12", 45 RPM, Limited Edition, 180g Heavy Virgin
Country: UK

Finally, here's an older mix from Richards under the name DJ Zilla. I must admit that i only realised the connection between the hard, breakcore edged sound of King Cannibal and the drifting beauty of Zilla's mixing in the process of researching this post. This is only partly down to ignorance however as Zilla's mashed up hiphop sound is a mile away from King Cannibal's menacing basslines.

Zilla's One Foot In The Fire mix has been on my ipod constantly since i discovered it randomly in the blogsphere a couple of years ago. It has been hailed as a rival to Coldcut's legendary '70 minutes of madness' mix and with good reason; just check out the tracklist! The selection is eclectic but not random and each mix is precise and smooth, almost creating the impression of a single, everchanging track. This is what a DJ mix should be. Light one and put this shit on!
