GROOVE LA CHORD - DEEPARTURE IN TIME - REVISITED

Thank you Abigail for sending this track!!! xoxo

DJ HMC - LSD (original mix)

Let Me Tell You / It Takes a Fool

Let Me Tell You (Dub Mix)

The globally revered house and techno project Floorplan continue to build their relationship with Classic with explosive club release, ‘What A Friend’. Following the success of previous releases on Luke Solomon’s imprint, like UK radio favourite ‘We Give Thee Honor’ or esoteric club track ‘Like Dat’, Robert and Lyric Hood continue to dominate both festival and club stages globally, including Brunch Elektronik in Barcelona, The Warehouse Project in Manchester and Igloofest in Montreal. ‘What A Friend’ exemplifies Robert Hood’s legacy as an early member of Detroit’s Underground Resistance; vocal samples are chopped and dispersed brazenly over hard four-on-the-floor beats, creating club music that is sonically arresting, rhythmically enthralling and bursting with the attitude expected from Detroit’s legendary club scene.

Muse - Supermasive Black Hole (Fede Aliprandi Edit)

(Sometimes the algorithm breaks my heart and it did yesterday.  "Meadows Green" is so mellow and pretty--you should give it a listen, especially if you like any of the most "popular" mellow Interbay tracks like "December Endings" or "Passing By".  I think you'd like it, no matter what the algorithm thinks.)  

Today's track is one of the more straight forward Interbay tracks.  I wanted to make a house track.  And, to even my own surprise, I made a house track.  It doesn't suddenly veer off into post-punk or industrial or electro.  It starts as a house track, it remains a house track throughout, and when it ends--it ends as a house track.  

If you've been following the Interbay music project for any length of time, you'll know how unusual that is...

That's not to say it isn't an IInterbay track.  Oh, it definitely IS, clearly, an Interbay track.  At one point, it sounds like a train is coming right through the track, and then, towards the end, the bassline shows some 80s synth pop influence--that works in a house track, but isn't as traditional of a "house track" element as other parts of this track.  

But, if you're looking for hi-hats that sizzle, claps on the two and four, a four on the floor beat that lets you groove for as long as you want.  I even put in some flutes, if you were a fan of Deep Forest in the nineties and wanted a similar vibe, but at house music tempos.  

I have two concerns with this track.  Perhaps you could guide me towards answers?  

If you look at the waveform for this track, you'll see large sections where the waveform is completely filling the available space.  I pushed this track right up to the clipper/limiter--wanting to get that good hard club "thump"...but I worry this is at the cost of clarity?  Does this track seem overdriven to you...or does it work?  

My second question is similar.  The royalty-free vocal sample I used seems to be particularly difficult to understand.  That quality is in the original sample, it is not simply a matter of whatever effects I did or didn't put on it.  I can pick out a few words here and there (which is why the thumbnail is both colorful and abstract, as one of the phrases I do hear clearly is about "lights flash" so I picked and produced an image that reminded me of being on a dance floor of a club playing house music until the early hours of the morning.  

I can also hear, clearly, "love is so profound"--which...I mean...yeah...  (Couldn't think of what would be a way to represent that idea, visually...so I chose to represent "lights flash."  

I'm not even sure that the title of this track, "Quell," is actually what is being sung.  It could just as easily be "well" or another word that rhymes with that.  

...but I love the word "Quell" more than "well"--so, "Quell" it is.  (And the only things that "Quell" made me think of was The Hunger Games...and that "quell" is something that those in charge do when there is a rebellion or uprising...)  

...and I didn't want to use imagery from either of those ideas, so abstract colored lights it is.  

If you like house music, club music, electronic dance music...I think you'll like this one.  (And this time, having a longer song certainly fits the vibe!)  

Listen! Like! Repost! Share! Comment! Playlist! and Follow!  Please! 
(...and check out yesterday's track, "Meadows Green"--I would appreciate that a great deal!)

Carl Craig - Detroit Love Vol. 2
Planet E Communications
May 17 2019
Formats: Vinyl / CD / Digital
Cat. #: PEDL002

Detroit Love present the second release on their eponymous imprint – a collaborative venture from Planet E and !K7 that aims to capture the essence of Carl Craig’s beloved event series.

Following last year’s inaugural mix from Stacey Pullen, the second entry has been skillfully assembled by Carl Craig himself. Across a hazy, funk-driven voyage, he delves into the spirit of his hometown, championing the past and future of the motor city into an expertly curated mix.

With a blend of 90s gems and brand new exclusives, Carl’s track selections forge an atemporal vision of quintessential Detroit music. Included in the mix are two rare, early 90s classics from Ectomorph and Rhythim Is Rhythim, neither of which have been reissued on vinyl for decades, in addition to a 2015 collaboration from Carl Craig and Green Velvet, never before released on wax.

New material comes in the form of an exclusive Carl Craig edit of DJ Minx, another exclusive from Claude VonStroke, tracks from TV Lounge affiliates Ataxia and Mister Joshooa and unheard music from Matthew Dear under his new Brain alias, to name a few.

Whilst Carl's name might be stamped on the mix, Detroit itself takes centre stage. The number of exclusive tracks reflects his commitment to crafting a unique listening experience, but the spirit of the city shines through in the diversity of his selections, which range from modern classical crossovers to American garage rock via a healthy dose of soul-drenched house and techno.

Carl launched the Detroit Love parties in 2014 as a way of representing the city’s heritage across the globe. Extending this mission to the label, Detroit Love Mixed By Carl Craig is an impassioned homage to the musical legacy of his hometown.
