vs




who wins the battle of the dance music producer behemoths?

And it's Yurr, tard.

That second one is about as 1980s as it gets.

[Citizen Dolly]

Prefer the first one but I remember the second. Make of that what you will.

Indeed, I hated that stupid track so much and for so long I think I like it now, brain damage for sure. In fact when I think about it I've been doing my little bit all these years to help it remain unforgotten - the gods are laughing now, I was channelled to perpetuate what I hated, what a dick!

[Citizen Dolly]

To be fair, it's kind of punk as fuck. I'm reminded of a bit in KLF's "The Manual" where they stress the importance of a sincere and unironic love of pop music and scorn for all that "serious artist" bollocks. SAW were kind of the living embodiment of that attitude. Come to think of it, didn't Bill Drummond work for them for a time?

[wushuman]

Yeah a quick google says that is so. I can't believe people make fun of serious artists though, so disrespectful.

[wushuman]

Talking of jack tracks, can't believe I'd never heard this until about 3 days ago, holy shit, what a tune.

Really has that phuture acid house vibe, and then wow.

When I grow up I want to make tunes like this.

[Ifunkus]

The first tune gets my vote, the second, is pure poppy cheese
