Mnml

I'm having a throwback day and I re-found this gem.

http://www.beatport.com/track/funk-...inal-mix/844293

So fucking good. Anyone care to recommend me stuff in this same mood?

I hope this sound never comes back


Posted by wotyzoid on Dec-19-2013 17:31:

Dude, really? Track is so bomb.

Looking back, it's as though the scene was so sickly in 2005 that the only people left going to clubs were the real wreckheads, the ones so fucked you could take 90% of the music out and they'd still try and dance to it. Dark days.

This track is atrocious.

Yeah, really not feeling this track either. There are a few good tracks that came out of the mnml storm, some (not all) Villalobos for example but most of it was and is utter garbage.

Approx. 2005-2009 was like the dark ages of electronic dance music

At least dubstep was good then

No fun in you.

Not my style.

I think 2007-2009 were pretty good. 2007 had a lot of seminal records and 2008/2009 were around the time real techno and house came back. Also great crossover with dubstep when it was still fresh.

2002-2006 were fucking garbage though. Like every genre of electronic dance music went to absolute shit somewhere in that time frime. Mcprog, mindless tribal techno, jump up drum & bass, shitty funky house, electro house, mnml, microhouse, anjuna trance and the list goes on. Dear god.


Posted by wotyzoid on Dec-19-2013 19:59:

Boom!

Yea, 2002 - 2006 sounds more accurate actually


Posted by wotyzoid on Dec-19-2013 20:07:

Oh my god!

It was fun for a second, and one or two tracks may have their place in a set here and there nowadays, but that's about it.

This guy does it better:



But yeah, overall, I'm not crazy about this type of sound.


Posted by Salegon on Dec-19-2013 21:46:

Haha weird. To me, this track is as dull as most of the techno or deep house tracks frequently posted here by the usual suspects.
No climax, no real builtup. I still don't have an ear for this kind of music.

That track was produced in 2013 - what does it have to do with the period and music that's being discussed in this thread?

Aside from that, "this guy does it better" - better than...? You could slug some valerian tea and then bang a wooden spoon on the side of a tin pot and it would probably sound better than most mnml production from that era.

This is when Richie was learning how to get Magda to make the tea simply by using the power of his mind:



Anyone need a minus beach towel?



Each one was personally tested by Ricardo after a heavy club gig, which is why they could command such a ridiculously high price for a stupid piece of fabric.

+1 and yeah it did feel like the dark ages of EDM. 2006 was around when I stopped DJing because of the scene but it's getting better now.

As far as I'm concerned minimal was music for people doing traquilizers, which around that time as well prescriptions drugs were the only thing available in clubs at the moment.




This was and still is awesome, I kind of thought the sound might have caught on. Sounds killer on a good system. I took this track as their way of putting the minimal sound to shame.


Posted by corjay9 on Dec-20-2013 03:25:

The only mnml stuff I like is a little bit of Villalobos and some of Baby Ford's stuff. OP track has absolutely no groove. Sorry man, can't do it.


Posted by wotyzoid on Dec-20-2013 03:51:

You guys are just old and don't know how to have fun anymore.

Lol you don't see the irony in creating this thread. This track is so good it blew my mind so hard I forgot about it. #Nostaljunk

Nothing says fun like the K hole.

OP track is awful. under no circumstances is this a gem, of any kind.

minimal is a fucking plague. it's like they indentified all the great stuff about dance music, then surigcally removed it - leaving an empty corpse shuffling about.

i think the people involved in it just revel in something other than the music itself... cause it's utter shit. counter-culture, hipsterism, whatever it is

they need a slap around the face and a stompin beat dropped into their earballs to snap them out of it.

hawtin at least is happy to be doing his own thing, the shit he pioneered... i don't know what the rest are up to. hangers-on.

It looks like one of those pee pads for dogs.
