i've been listening to the beats in space mix this afternoon - a bit heavier than how he played on saturday, but the overarching atmosphere is still definitely him. reading his blurb on the RA podcast just reaffirms everything I picked up on on saturday.

Have you got any indoor/outdoor venues over there? Dancing to Prosumer while the sun comes up probably can't be beaten. You should try and get him booked for your summer - that'd make a great Christmas party.

Saw prosumer play for 4 hours or so on saturday night. One of the best sets I've heard. He is a machine in terms of mixing, but he has the most feeling of any DJ i've seen. Pretty much in love now!

cheers, i can't get enough

yeah, after listening to the beats in space set, i continued my prosumer-thon with the RA podcast, which is on it, and then this one: Prosumer @ Dance under the Blue Moon 2007-01-06

I definitely think that Prosumer set is one of the best showcases of (his definition of) deep house that I've heard, full-stop.

Incidentally, have any of you revisited his RA podcast? So many of the 'casts are good, but lack that 'little bit extra' (be it care, passion, or magic) that make them eminently re-listenable. But Prosumer's is a notable exception.

Ditto the Simko - her sound really has an ineffable 'something'- plus the way it modulates and shifts gradually makes it fit neatly with analogous explorations by Dear as Audion (at least pre-raygun Audion).

That might make an interesting electro-shouty band name:

Raygun Youth

...I'll add that to my house prod. duo names of 'Backlash and Bandwagon' or 'Peddle and Smut'

really liked the prosumer mix, i wouldn't have guessed that most of those songs are 10+ years old, wow !

it also happens to be one of the more beautiful of the records i've bought this year. artwork matches the music, pretty but also slightly sinister.

So, mkb, did you manage to find any adult friends? ;-)

As regards the post itself ... wow. Talk about an embarrassment of riches! Six sets, all of which sound bloody fantastic. When too much good music is never enough.

I'm very keen to hear the Simko set ... and, no, I haven't heard the "She Said" EP on Spectral yet either. It sounds like I really need to.

Oh, and the Acid dog and cat picture is priceless. Love it.

it's all about balance, too much new or too much old are both boring in their own way! it's all about the mix up....

Simko set is a blinder. I absolutely adore her sound and you're right that it's very refreshing. Check out the She Said release as soon as you can, it's definitely worth it for all three tracks.

and someone like prosumer - with the panorama/ostgut name - has the potential to introduce more techno-orientated people to old house jams... anyway, for what it's worth, i dig it.

2008-04-15T22:24:00.000+10:00

prosumer mix looks fun, but damn, EVERY track on there aside from his own is at least 10 years old, many are up to 20 years old. i love the old shit too, but come on, throw some more new jams in there! i'll DL it anyway though ;)
