i know this track is a bit in the wrong place here, but i can't stop myself to share it with you as i stumbled over it right now as a starting track in a dj set.
didn't hear this track in ages.
Interesting choice of track to start a dj set off with, who's the dj set by if you don't mind me asking... And your welcome to post anything that you like here DocNo... Kraftwerk were a major influence on a hell of a lot of house and techno producers so it fits for sure!
yes - cause they are one of the pioneers to electronic music i guess they have everywhere a place.
the set is from one of the solid steel radio shows from ninja tune which are more or less my main source of musical inspiration cause of the wide range of styles the covered over the last 2-3 decades.
Its an excellent label... I don't know if you do any gaming but there's a video game called sleeping dogs, the soundtrack has a ninja tune radio show on it and it has some brilliant tracks on it. One of my favorite's is a track by bonobo. I'l try to find it and post it
Here's the ninja tuna radio from sleeping dogs..
dive deeper into it tomorrow. being pretty knackered already and heading for bed soon.
but lots of familiar names in the track list. like for example emika. i love this track from her.
@DocNo love this one and the video is wow.

@DocNo thats why I will never want to grow old, that is what await us. A retirement house. From most of us at least.
No I didn't know him. Going to read it. Thank you hun.yes. i also did see it with my grandparents. it's just an awful, dehumanising, undignified process.
that's also a reason why i don't like religion cause taking your own life when you feel the decline of yourself is so forbidden based on these old beliefs which are still deeply rooted in society. i also think that this did lead to this "safe lives at all costs" mentality in medicine.
but i guess at least there is now a bit of movement in it.
when i started to read a lot about suicide before i stumbled over this site i also found the blog from martin manley who comitted exactly on his 60th birthday and did document his thought process. i guess it is widely known in this community but maybe you don't know it.
Martin Manley: Life and Death
Sports blogger Martin Manley from Kansas committed suicide on his 60th birthday and created this website explaining his reasons for doing so. Yahoo decided to pull the website; this is the mirror of the original website.martinmanley.bizarrepedia.com
Another classic moby track
i also liked mobys bond theme.
also listened for some time to the old 60ies and 70ies bond soundtracks. there are some fabulous tracks in it.
and another track from my mums record collection.
Your mum had an amazing record collection from the sound of it... I see why you've got so much passion and knowledge for music.
edit: living with a depressed mum had a lot of downsides but at least the soundtrack was good ^^
yeah she also was for some time in a relationship with a crazy jazzrock musician who just lived for his music and played in smoky jazz clubs just to make music. music always came before money. jammed with guys who also jammed with miles davis and others. sitting as a greenhorn teenager at the age of 15 and later in this clubs and listening to his music had for sure a big impact one my music taste.
he also covered for some time this track which i love very much. and this track is also a good example how cool live can be cause the studio version of this track feels like dead fish :D
Sorry to hear your mum suffered from depression, must of been tough to deal with as a kid...i can definitely see how your musical tastes have been shaped, growing up around a musician like that.
As you said before about J dilla, it's sometimes the imperfections that gives the music more groove and warmth and feeling. I love quite a bit of the jazz/funk fusion stuff myself. Here's one of my favorites...
