I’ve been hearing some Logistics tunes lately that have totally made me fall in love with his music again. When his album Now More Than Ever came out, I was full on obsessed. I loved every track and was so into his production. Winter Blues was my favourite. I had heard an unfinished version that Flight had played on her 1xtra show earlier in the year and totally sought it out quite regularly and it didn’t come out until way way later and I wasn’t even annoyed that it took so long, I was just happy to own it. Also his remix of The Great D&B Swindle was so awesome. Then I started to not be so into his stuff. It wasn’t that it wasn’t good, it was more that i was on a totally different page dnb wise. Now I’m all on it again. There’s something so deep about his production. I feel like I just get it. Does that make sense? I think it’s cool when you’re listening to an artist and you connect with their music cuz you can say to your self, “I know what you’re on about, I get it.”

I was listening to the latest Hospital Podcast and heard one of Logistics new tunes Intervention on there. Hot stuff. I actually enjoyed the podcast this time around. I feel like it’s very hit or miss with me. Sometimes I’m super into it and other times I can’t even get through the first couple of tracks. Blasphemy!!! I know, I know 😉

There’s a wicked Matrix remix of that Redeyes Luv & Haight tune with Deeizm that I said I didn’t like on the podcast. I still don’t really like the vocal but the remix is awesome. Matrix!! I’ve always really liked him. My copy of his Sleepwalk LP is too through! I can only play the first half of my fave track Asylum cuz it’s just too scratched up. Dang.

Like I said though, I thought this installment of the podcast was really good. I’ll post it once I see a link but you can also just go subscribe to it on itunes.

I also am currently loving that Nu:Logic (Nu:Tone & Logistics) Trademark track. (It’s in the player.) I heard it on that awesome Marcus Intalex mix from July and it’s just a banging track.

I don’t have any mixes to rate for you right now. I’m kinda in that zone I’ve talked about before where I just seem to listen to the chunk of mixes that I have right now on repeat. I’m sure I’ll move on to a new group of mixes pretty soon.

I feel like my summer has been a bit boring. I usually am so excited about Chicago summers but I think that this time around it took so long that the enthusiasm died and now it’s almost over. Boo. I do have an exciting fall coming up though so hopefully that will make up for it. I have two weddings to go to which are actually going to be really fun cuz they are two of my really good friends.

Seminar tonight. Stunna!!!!

Nod Your Head

There was definitely a lot of head nodding going on last night.  I really had a good time at Seminar.  Great music.  Pipeline and Stunna were killing it.  I definitely admit that I’m quite spoiled when it comes to dnb.  My really good friends are part of the dnb game so I pretty much get to hear exactly what I want when they are around.  Stunna played this Lenzman banger that I still can’t get out of my head.  Sorry I forgot the name.  (I’m absolutely horrible with track names)  I’ll definitely be waiting for that one.

I’m a little bit out of it this morning.  I’m really tired.  I barely slept.  I did manage to find time to spend too much money buying records this morning though.  Always gotta make time for that right? One of the treats I picked up was a copy of this Mutt record that I’ve wanted that’s finally back in stock – Nice As Me/Strangers.  I was pretty excited about that.

I’m yawning alot which obviously means that my brain is need of a LOT of oxygen.  I’m not going to waste time babbling about nonsense.  I just found this Flight w/ Deeizm mix which I hope will keep me awake.

Ravin’

Flight – Live @ Swerve

Just in the process of listening to this one but I’m sure it’ll be wicked cuz Flight doesn’t disappoint.

Had a pretty good weekend. Makoto was in town. Really good show. I must say that I’m really into my Chicago dnb scene. I may harp on about being old but it’s just that I think I would be pretty miserable if my city’s dnb scene was ravetastic. I really am not that into partying with young people and being around a million people at a time. I have reached the age where me and an eighteen year old really have nothing in common, so partying with one would seem pretty silly. I think it’s nice to be in my thirties and be able to go to an intimate bar, listen to music I like on a nice sound system, have a drink and be around my friends. I know that other people wanna hype it up and rave til the break of dawn but that totally sounds nightmarish to me. To each his own, right?

I’m kinda swamped with work today so this mini post will have to do. Be prepared for more of my “eye-opening” (kidding of course) dnb ramblings tomorrow.

P.S.  My day just got a lot cooler because this Peyo track that I’ve been in love with for ages just came out.  🙂
