Though this might be a bit of fun!

Mine.... Hejira by Joni Mitchell..

Why...

Coz her voice is just so damn cool. Gentle and angry at the same time and JP plays bass on it..

thats what i like about these threads, you get recommended something you wouldn't have necessarily picked out, there being so many dnb comps out there.....ive often found new gems after speaking to other peeps about there faves...

on another group we do a monthly 'In the player' and that way i also find some hot new releases....

Ok theres LOADS of masterpieces, could name 50 of them here or sumthin (focusin on electronic music). But i'll only name one very important. And we have to go back, not til the beginning but way back.. At the time when East 17, Roxette, Toto, Kris Kross, U96, Shamen and Erasure had hits. A record i listened to before i got my first pubic hair.

1992 - The Prodigy Experience - what a rush! still in 2003 (ok in these days some parts feels a bit annoying, but what the heck!). It must have been a giant impact for this type of music. And for me it was the start.

Holy shit, the opening 4-5 tunes of the album is nonstop energy of pure mental-speed-terror-madness! I don't even know if any other album can beat this take off, those breakbeats never seem to rest! It's smashing right up ya face!
Even the engineering is good for being old rave tracks - just listen how the bass sits well in Jericho (and there's loads of bass). It makes me wanna

. It's like Liam Howlett was given especially unnatural headroom for the bass - just for this bangin' track ;).

AYE! The whole album is a rush of creativity, details, unbelievable blending textures and nonstop action. It's like a.. really good action-movie (with only one love scene, "Weather Experience", and when the 303 comes in one of the lovers becomes a murderous alien and mashes everything up ;).
No one does this anymore - it earns a special award.

Everything is sequenced on a frikkin W-30 hardware sequencer, midi DAISY CHAINED with loads of equipment (time sync problems? not at all). And just about everything sits perfect though it's insane ;) (i can't imagine anything else in this special type of hardcore music that sounds better).

And Liam was a skinny young boy when he did this stuff.

(someone noticed that i listened to the record while writing ;)

i'm counting out time~....jf.....

did you see that show?

i cite "back in nyc" as the omen of things to come......i.e. sex pistols.
even johhny lydon was a big gabriel fan in those early days.

i also say> selling england by the pound.

2 most epic songs would be:
supper's ready
the musical box

that music still makes my skin come alive.

The Innerzone Orchestra album's pretty good, yeah, and I love the Jacques Lu
Cont Fabriclive.

If I had to choose ONE record it'd have to be DJ Shadow's "Endtroducing...",
simply because it kind-of kicked me a far way along the way to electronic music
happiness, and it's been with me in almost every country I've been to, every
climate I've been in, and there's always been something on it that felt right.

And when I saw him live it pretty much all clicked.

Of course, if I had to pick more than one, I'll have to pick about twenty, so I may
be some time...
