Bass Heavy Music

[JACKSTAR]

Handbags at dawn i fear......
I afraid i'm the only one with shares in Jackstar although if Crime wants to add some cash then I wouldn't turn it down.......ahahaha

Poor old Bam Bam comes over for a few gigs and this happens......oh well most people must of liked him because each place he played has rebooked him back for late June early July. Also BHM001 has already been licensed to a few CD compilations........ not bad really I suppose.

Calm down now.

I agree with Crime as far as his production quality.
I'm not a fan of the scratching techno bit, but he garners my respect hand over fist. Nothing beats back in 2001 me walking down the street in Bensonhurst brooklyn, three black guys drive by in this ford expedition with 22 inch rims blasting Da Hard Beats Part 2.
Bass heavy is good for what it's for Jacking your f*cking ass!
What I think is happening in this forum is a clash between some of us who were around in the 80's and into hip hop and other forms of music, as opposed to those who are here who were born in the 80's and are not musically matured........

Jaysus this has been blown up a bit Crime and Jackstar. He didn't like Bam Bam and gave his reasons, just because you think he's the best thing since sliced bread doesn't mean everyone has to agree the other point of him being the 'best' techno producer around kind of got me too, there's no 'best' techno producer anywhere.. that statement in itself is absurd to me. I know you are excited about this guy but not everyone else shares the same level of excitement.

To be honest I'd say I'd have enjoyed Bam Bam as i like his tracks and like to see DJs who are good technically even if their style of mixing is not quite what I'm into myself. The whole "You're listening to Dj Bam-Bam, log onto my website" etc. during his set sounded a bit naff though and has unfortunately tarred my opinion of him somewhat.

Sunil, ur missing mark's point here

its not the fact that perp said he doesnt like Bam Bam, it was his initial comment about Bam Bam's djing that Mark picked up on. the original post was about Bass Heavy Music, not how talented Bam Bam is behind the decks!

and the discussion has spiraled from there

just for the record, i dont think there is any disputing about Bam's talent at the moment, the man is on fire

No, I got Mark's point.. I just found the tone a bit condescending.

Yeah agreed re: Bam Bam's tracks..excellent.

[slavestudios]

sorry all. seem to have opened up a can of techno worms

i never said he wasnt any good, and i was at the gig so i know EXACTLY how the crowd reacted at the belfast show...


one more thing. he did do ONE thing i totally disagree with. after the warm up dj (who had played his balls off btw) Bam Bam let the track run out, then foolowed almost a minute of silence before Bam Bam kicked it back in again. now i think that is just wrong. compltetly wrote off everything the warm up dj hard worked for.

but, at the same time, the man is highly skilled & knows how to rock a club. just aint my thing. course, if he heard my trax, he'd prob say theu were shite :lol:





theres no need to take it so hard. its just my opinion.

anyways, me & crime got it sorted. so its all good ;)


but Jacksatr, i understand how much faith & time you have for your artists, but it would be a dull world if we all liked everything.

[slavestudios]

his production is top notch, but i dont dig his trax much. bit too bouncy for me own liking BUT thats just my opinion...


i can have my own opinion cant i ?

;)

[eyes without a face]

nice one

sorted!

its all about the beatz at the end of the day kids!

i was born in 73 a'ite ? i think most 80s music is utter toss. i NEVER got into hip hop & i think Kraftwerk are boring, but thats I M O

assuming how mature ppl are is abit pretentious think ye not ;)


give me NIN & PWEI & Neds Atomic Dustbin & Testament & Megadeth & Ministry & Green River any day


anyways, its all about 'The Discussion' rite ?

[jonnyspeed]

I was born in 71 and love all jacked-up techo - phat! It really simple - yer either or leave it, init?

[slavestudios]

speaking of trax, Jackstar arent lookin any demos are they ?




:wicked:

[slavestudios]

ach, its all relevant. even if u dont like sumthin (for whatever reason) its a reaction. and thats what its about. creating reactions.


a bad reaction is better than none at all....

[JACKSTAR]

I'll get me coat !!!!!

I am always on the lookout for demo's and it don't all have sound like Bam Bam as long as it takes my fancy and is totally rockin'.

As far as me saying Bam Bam is one of the best Techno producers.....well that is my opinion and surely i'm aloud that and no-one has to agree...JESUS get a grip. :roll:

I'll be playing again in Belfast soon so I know not to - 1) Have any snare rolls 2) MC intro 3) Cut the warm up dj's record - then hopefully people will like me....

ONLY JOKING GUYS......

P.

well, you said "the best" which for me is a lot different to one of the best! Me I never consider any one individual as THE BEST, but that's just me ;)

[crime]

Oh dear,
Bit of a storm in a teacup i see.....
Me + Perpetual made our peace quite well... in fact our quarrel ended with me providing him with our address to send demos along with a few other peole who it would be worth sending his trax to.. the whole bollocks argument was my fault really, in the fact that there was no emoticon for sticking your tounge out, and I think a sticking your toung out emoticon should replace the emoticon which I feel is very po faced.. if anything the argument caused us to talk to each other in relation to how we could help each other out, which is quite nice really...

Personally though, I think there's plenty of room for scratching in a techno set, and the whole "You're listening to dj bam bam " thing, that's just bam, He's from america, it's a cultural difference and things are more like that over there, he wouldn't be Bam if it wasn't for that, just the way it is... I kinda like that cultural difference... even if it is a bit cheesy...
at the end of the day Jackstar 001 says it all to me, when paul played me those trax for the first time, it was something else, the energy that had been needed in techno for a long time....
