Title: high contrast - tough guys dont dance
Post by: oxford_fan on Thursday, November 15, 2007, 11:41:24
anyone else got this?

i thought high society was good, but not very consistent and half the tracks were quite average. bugger me this new one is good. drum and bass with strong old school jungle roots mixed with the best of the modern stuff.

was beginning to get a bit fed up with the current stuff, but this has restored my faith.

sounds fantastic with a sub.

Yep, amazing album, best tracks for me are probably kiss kiss bang bang http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqNBCgj8Ay4 and chances. Also forever and a day and nobody gets out alive, although I love them all to be honest.

I really liked high society but this might have topped it, he can do no wrong recently, just seems to be able to take any sample or remix anything and it suddenly sounds great. Think it's nobody gets out alive which has a sample from a 1920's blues record.

I downloaded High Society about a month ago, is this album worth a go?

Never listened to True Colours either.

Yeah it's definitely worth a go, did you like high society? I would have gone to that oxford gig if it wasn't sold out, seen him about 20 times already but not for a while now. Easily the best dj I've seen though, when high contrast comes on the entire place starts dancing, even people buying drinks.

everyone does nowadays dont they, what with pendulum cracking the mainstream.

together by logistics reminds me of good times.

and a venue would have to be pretty damn poo for andy c not to rock it. i'd imagine he'll guarantee a decent soundsystem too.

@oxford_fan: together is summer vibes man, fucking wicked tune

Yeah logistics is pretty good, I've seen all the djs who've been on hospital records play live loads because they had a weekly residency at a bar in Cardiff. High Contrast is definitely the best one but they're all decent.
