    well just a tester first....go to http://www.religionuk.com/ and turn your sound up...you can choose track 1, 2 and 3. Have a bash on www.germantrance.com too and listen some tunes. If you look it I'll tell you where to download some good mixes,

    Well I'm listening to track 1. My main criticisms would be use of an excessively cheesy sample, lumpen 4/4 rhythm, no bass line.
    Track 2 - cheesy melody using a cheesy pre-set synth sound, lumpen rhythm, no bass line.
    Track 3- cheesy melody using a cheesy pre-set synth sound, lumpen rhythm, no bass line.

    Utter utter shit IMO.

    I thought that sounded more like Hard Trance & Hard House.

    By the way, the guy on the front og that flyer, the one with the blad head and goatee. Is he a DJ, he looks like someone who I used to kinda know.

    not sure who that bald guy is, I'll ask Tom the designer...clubbing circles tend to be one big circle dont they?

    Awful cheesy shite, for much the same reasons as previously given. I like dance music to have a bit of soul, funk, rhythm, you know, something I can actually dance to, move my hips to, get low down deep and funky. Not something that sounds like a military marching band.

    that's cool, glad to hear your opinion again....I'll sure it'll sink in one day. ;)


    Anyway, back to Felix Da Housecat, let me know what you think, it's not for everyone....I love a good old stomp to it........everyone likes different things, the music I posted is to my taste and I love to express myself to it...it's whatever flicks your switch though :D

    never! explain!
    mum used to be a northern souler...ive only ever listened to snippets of her's. It's actually my mumu that got me into clubbing. She used to go wigan casino and twisted wheel in Manc. She's sneak out her window at night. Then she went mod, then punk and then electronic (incidently she likes hardtyle ;) )

    So what's House of God like and where can we go to hear Northern Soul?

    Its not a northern soul club, its a techno club in Birmingham, just celebrated its 12th birthday. Well, they used to play some northern soul in the back room, but I haven't been in about 3 years so I dunno if they still do.. If you like hard (but quality, e.g. Surgeon, Dave Clarke etc) style techno, check it out. It was a regular haunt of mine 10 years ago in Brum. They play everything from tech-house to hard as nails techno in the main room, breaks, jungle and drum'n'bass upstairs and house, hip hop, soul, funk, reggae and other random stuff in the back.

    sounds good, might have to to take a trip down there one day. I tend to like it hard but with a bouncy edge but i like all sorts.
    Let me know if you know of any northern soul all nighters. :thumb:

    I think he is just wondering how it is doing, given that this thread predicting its death is now 3 years old and still going.

    That and he's one of those old cogers who think music was best back in the 60's, not that he can remember back that far.

    like the odd tune ...especialy when a little high but ...my kids have driven me crazy with the stuff so ...it is something i have backed away from somewhat.

    Bing ...i'm actualy not a big fan of much 60's stuff ...more a seventies man but ...i do buy brand new stuff as well.
