As we start the round of penultimate entries for DHS7 I offer the observation that we've just passed the first anniversary of DHS - at least I think we have, I can't be exactly sure but I think it was around late September, early October we got started wasn't it? Feel free to correct if you have a better memory than I do.
Your last selections;
H - your Bad Boy choices were an interesting twist. I keep waiting for the day when I grow into 'The Blues' - it hasn't happened yet though. My loss I'm sure but it meant I liked the last three much more than the Clapton and Magic Slim efforts.
D - The Paul Mounsey tune is familiar to me - no idea where from. Nice though.
The De Vit scares me but in a good way - the idea that I used to dance to music that fast is almost unimagineable! I can see why you like the breakdown. Beastie Boys is large - pretty sure I've not heard that before whilst the vocodered voice is familiar - sampled somewhere maybe? Apologies for my rant against 'You're The Voice' - I was 'tired' after an unsuccessful pub-quiz! That and the fact that I absolutely hate it. Totally irrational - first time it's ever happened for me with a DHS selection but there's no point lying about it - I cannot stand that song. *Cue H selecting it for the next Best Of...* Last five minutes of Fatboy Slim are especially wicked.
Well played all round.
Next up;
RJD2 - you both know this well but possibly not in it's full glory. Quirky, with a different ending than you might expect.
Bruno Mars - if you like this I'll take the credit, if you don't then blame my daughter for it is her that has been hammering this into my consciousness. Back in the day this was the sort of thing you bought on 7" for a young lady you were keen on in the hope it would curry favour - I guess today you get a dodgy torrent download and bluetooth it to her mobile?!
Bomb The Bass - one of the first cd singles I ever bought - forgot all about it till a recent cupboard excavation.
Soap & Skin - currently featuring in adverts for the Ford Mondeo - another in a growing line of DHS 'fragile-moody-piano' tunes.
Rhythm & Sound - gut twistingly deep dub tune - I know it's a Marmite selection but it's SO deep, SO hypnotic and SO relentless...
