Huh, apparently I'm in the company of a lot of people mistaking that as a Mazzy Star cover.

I discovered that song a few years ago, never heard it before, but looked up the backstory and it's a Rolling Stones original.

Finding an old mix and discovering this tunes name (originally it's one of those samples that gets mixed in and most of the time you'd be unaware of what it actually was called) lead me to rekindle my respect for acid house which had a small blip on music history. (This isn't incidentally acid house, it just came from the time period. Part of "Channel X" was Praga Khan who produced quite a few tracks during that time)

Okay here's another, although this will likely drive some up the wall (I mean people at one point had the 10hr version on Youtube... why?!... well they either really liked it or just thought some would be really annoyed)

In a complete contrast here's one for love, life and butterfly's (unfortunately no video but it's one of those tracks that was easily missed):

Has a cool sound. I tend to like a mixture of house/trance mixes, this could use a splash of trance.

While I'm predominantly Electro, Occasionally I've ventured into the thoughts of "Where exactly did it all come from?" Prior to Rolands the electro-scene was spawn by a moog eruption. It's actually interesting to see what was made and when to see where the experimental electro scene started to come into being.


1961: Not exactly a music score, but IBM's first example of Electronic voice (and synthesised music) Daisy - IBM 7094

Wow, that IBM video is pretty crazy. They paved the way ...who knew.

I like that Gershon Kingsley sound, that's amazing that is from 1969, what? I always feel a bit smarter when I visit this forum. Big Grin Thanks for the info, I had no idea the backstory behind this genre of music!
