after a short break, we are back with another ssg mix, this time from new york's anthony parasole. during my brief trip to NYC in february, i went to a 'save the cannibals' party where he was playing along with cassy. i was impressed with what i heard from anthony and thought he'd fit well into our mix series. he agreed and i'm happy to share the result with you all.
anthony has been making a name for himself over the last year or two as part of a resurgent new york scene. besides dj'ing, he recently co-founded the deconstruct label with levon vincent, which has begun in fine fashion with the 1st two releases from levon being very well received. anthony has also started along with bryan kasenic (beyond booking/bunker) the house-n-home loft-party series, which has been bringing a string of quality house and techno acts to new york. and with the next deconstruct release, he'll be making production debut. so all in all, anthony is a busy boy...
anthony's mix is another all vinyl effort, recorded in one take. what i like about it is the whole mix has a really great flow and structure. it all fits together (this is very important for me). simply put, this is house with balls - the mix has a real raw feeling to it that really appeals. anyway, enough from me. you can hear it for yourself:

the 3rd deconstruct is a double ep featuring a dj qu track, 'party people clap', along with remixes from anthony parasole and fred p , levon vincent, and jus-ed. the next house-n-home party is on 1 august featuring santiago salizar and dj qu. after that will be their one 1 year anniversary on 12 september with 2 special guests. plenty to look forward to... for more info about anthony, make sure to check his myspace.
big thanks to anthony for the mix, and also to levon who mastered it (yes, the ssgs know how to treat you well). tracklisting will be up next week along with the next ssg mx: another repeat performance, this time care of lerosa, who has done a special dj set of house classics. after all the headfuck techno, we figure it is time for a bit of house. enjoy!
Ooh lawdy. You've just made my month.
ReplyDeleteMan, this is good. Deep, jacking house that is raw. Add some DP at the end and then you have one of the best mixes I've heard this year.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I am not really into house, this one is very nice. good flow, indeed, and the 57'30"- 62'20" section is particularly sweet. Congrats for diversification and for the mix!
ReplyDeletewell theres a problem with fairtilizer;/

ReplyDeleteSaucey mofo! Oi, what's up with the tracklist? A couple pieces in this mutha that rocked it proper.
ReplyDeleteGreat mix. I didn't see the end coming. Nice surprise.
ReplyDeleteOutstanding mix, i havent heard anything like this on any podcast series, thank you ssgs!
ReplyDeletemy boy anthony comes through with a monster. nice work, man! not sure if its as good as that old halcyon mix you did a few years ago, but fuck me is this one proper.
ReplyDeletenot sure about that ending though...
Amazing NY/ Detroit crossover mix that should be drooled over by house and techno-heads alike. Cheers to Anthony for the mix and the ssgs for the good taste. ;)
ReplyDeleteHello everyone
ReplyDeletei would like to thank everyone for all there feedback :) I agree with Marzie as this mix cross's over House and Techno, I would like to think my music and this set appeals to booth audience's. when i made this mix i was just pulling my favorite records out of my crate that has inspired me over the years, including the ending Mr. Cloutier :) i love that record and thought it was fitting to end with a record that was such a pivotal sound of New York in the 90's!
Thanks everyone
PARASOLE! )
wowww... i loveeeeee you Parasoleeee
ReplyDeleteOutfrigginstanding!!! ANTHONY PARASOLE I LOVE YOU!!!! =D
ReplyDeletethis is likely to make me sound rather negligent, but i grew up listening to warp electronica et al and only consciously got into this 'techno / house' thing in a major way a few years back, without any major passion for the american slant on all this bang bang music. 'detroit' i heard people say, to which i would respond 'berlin'. i appreciated all the old stuff from accross the pond, don't get me wrong. but then i found omar-s; then i found levon vincent, and now i find anthony parasole. all american and all with a sound resonating around the walls of my mind. these crazy techno-house hybrid sounds make my ears bend. we've all heard the over used 'tech-house' catch all that so irritates me when i browse the shelves of record stores. but for me this stuff is 'techno-house'. individual and as one, all at the same time, but never anything in the generic-inbetween. RAW. i would like to say a huge thanks to these three guys. and a huge thanks to ssgs for managing to influence my musical direction in such a positive way. RESPECT
