Ok definitely the quietest month ever on a.n.o.e.... fear not, I have not given in (no way baby), work has been keeping me very busy which is always a good thing, but the downside is those of you who still read this thing have been short changed. We also just turned 5, or sometime last month anyway. The thing is, I have definitely had a shift in musical interests this year, favouring digging over a lot of new stuff that proliferates on the shelves of stores around the world. It's not a new thing and I certainly am still very much interested in things shiny and new, just not most of it. I maintain that a fair few contemporary producers are making some of the best music we have ever heard, but I seem to have an unlimited capacity for loving both amateurs and virtuosos from the past, heads who seem to live for their music and who's output now resides deep in bargain bins and forgotten basements just off your local high street. Obviously you have noticed the 'digging' trend in a great deal of the content up on these pages and I would say this is likely to continue... until the club closes down or we get turfed out! As I say, it's not new, it's just stronger... so onward then into the future (and the past)...
Randolph Baker's 'Reaching For The Stars' lp has been getting a fair bit of discussion on some boards lately, apparently there are a number of copies hitting ebay and the like (some of which are a bit warped) in the last while, which is rather cool if you need a copy. If you dont know the track that makes this LP very collectable, check it below, it's a feel good slice of dancing... ok we're back...
