Drew posted this last week but on the off chance that there's anyone who missed it there or who reads this but not Across The Kitchen Table I'm going to share it here today. I've been playing it daily since I first heard it. John Talabot's remix of Jamie Xx's Loud Places. Drew called it mesmerising- which it definitely is. Add euphoric. And gorgeous. At ten minutes long, if you click replay twice that's half an hour of your day gone in a blissful haze, lost with that line or two of Romy's vocal isolated and repeated, and those wonderful drum patterns and synths. Between them Jamie, Romy and John also nail the happiness/sadness that is part of dance music and club culture- the communal joy of dancing against the loss of the lyrics. She's not waiting around, she's going, going, gone.
I have played it daily too and managed to get a copy on vinyl the other mix is not too bad but pale in comparison to this
ReplyDeleteOoh. Didn't know if it was out on vinyl yet. Where did you get a copy?

From Young Turks, as Piccadilly had sold out of copies in a few hours of it going on the website
ReplyDeleteHad a look at both last week but couldn't see it.
