Redial should dig deeper as did Kavinsky (fuck he just straight sampled Kano in Grand Canyon, nothing to it).<BR/><BR/>as for the haters, go fuck yourselves. every single one of you. discodust single handedly brought these artists to the attention of the blog world, now valerie is adding to it, and now all of you are 'holier than thou' and think you know your shit.<BR/><BR/>i read one of the truest quotes yesterday from this very blog.<BR/><BR/>"everyone's a critic these days. well, maybe everyone's just bombarded with so much music via the internet that they think they can be picky fuckers about everything."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767933381510999030.post-9509857264300078152008-07-17T20:08:00.000+02:002008-07-17T20:08:00.000+02:00Love it!

But sometimes criticism has its values, and especially in the case of filtering out recycled music. This stuff is just blatantly recycled, and im sure as redial moves forward he will create his own style, because his production is solid. <BR/>Also, most recycled dance music (MSTRKRFT etc) will fly on the dancefloor. just go to any dim mak show (not recommended) for proof. so whether it goes over fine is irrelevant as long as the production is tight.<BR/>not hating. just giving feedback that i would want if i were him. im sure hell be making some bangers in the future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767933381510999030.post-89610524031220221762008-07-14T07:24:00.000+02:002008-07-14T07:24:00.000+02:00Actually, 1986 from Kavinsky or 1985 from Redial.....Actually, 1986 from Kavinsky or 1985 from Redial...both of them give an Orgasm to my ears !!!
