Tensnake RA 187 – Resident Advisor Podcast // 12-28-2009 by Tensnake
This Dance In No White Mans Business
Was doing some digging through some old records and came across this Filthy Filthy Stomper… if you dont know about Material then start diggin.
I’M NOT HER
Forget any ‘party rap’ preconceptions or doubts or you may have had about GoldieLocks, because I’m Not Her isn’t going to fulfil them. The new four track EP is a real testament to the huge lyrical progression and vocal sophistication of GoldieLocks since the Bear Safe EP. ‘Cold Sweat’ is led by an infectious chorus and xylophone riff, whilst ‘Neon Lights’ is an intergalactic duet with pop undertones. ‘Addict’ is a darker bass joint about messy, dysfunctional love and ‘Green Eyes’ is the eagerly awaited collaboration with Benga, which is a real chill-out garage inspired night-time tune.
BIG IN THE GAME!!!
Drums of Death RA:Mix165
Our boy Drums of Death has supplied the latest Resident Advisor mixtape and its a peach!!! Its sums up everything that he’s about. From the moment i met him i knew this dude was special, driving him back from Manchester airport after he’d played the night before the Greco Roman tent at Bestival, he was erratically dancing in the confines of the passenger seat and constantly spouting about how hyped he was on everything. Its dark and deep, with some ridiculously stupid moments of genius, delving into some classic tracks and blending them against the freshest dub plates… its been getting rinsed on the CoYo sound system so check it out.

Acid Love
I first came across Kings of the Universe when Hot City dropped Acid Love on his Fabric Party Mix… I’m not sure what it is about the sound of 808’s and 909’s that get’s me going at the moment but this track is mad fresh! Hailing from Sweden this pair have been jacking bodies overseas now for a few years now, and with a killer live PA/Dj set I don’t think it will be too long before you start hearing a lot more of these guys over on our shores. Until then check out the aforementioned track along with a killer mega/mini mix that we poached off their website.

Manicured Noise – Metronome (Cousin Cole Remix)
We’ve every excited to bring you this classic slice of Mancunian Punk-Funk reworked by Brooklyn’s very own party start extraordinaire Cousin Cole… sent from the lovely people at Caroline True Records. Nameing the clubnight after the seminal James Chance hit Contort Yourself its not hard to work out that I’m pretty obsessed with the whole Punk-Funk / Mutant Disco / No Wave sound outside of what i play in the clubs, so this is why i love this track. Cousin Cole takes the original blueprint for Punk-Funk on a magic carpet ride through Manchester’s infamous club the Hacienda, to the 21st Century dancefloor of New York City where Cole and crew man Pocketknife regularly rock the lofts of Brooklyn and beyond.
Staying true to the original sound Cole takes the sturdy bassline for a workout, thumping out the groove against a hypnotic sax line and chopped up vocal that punctuates the track later on. Somehow he gives this number that oh-so-cool tropical / tech house sound thats all over the show at the moment while making it sound equally relevant against the output of modern day dance funk outfits ala Friendly Fires… superb!
We Just Wont Stop.
This song has been stuck in my head all week. Recently released on DFA, James Curd is a Disco / House producer hailing from Chicago… keep and eye on him as we’re digging his output right now.
