Michael Forshaw - I love Horses - Bernards Haircut (Germany)

:dance: :notworthy: :dance:

Anyone else feeling this 'vibe' at all?

[jonnyspeed]

This is excellent.

And I'm getting a little (well alot!) pissed off with people digging at Mark and Michael, tbh.

Compared with the formulaic toss that has come out of too many artists recently (RAW, routemaster 51/52 anybody?) this is genius.

What about that pink little poney record??? Oh, yeah, "I Love Horses", 2mikes on Bernard Haircut recording...Don't know if it's acid techno, but it's certainly the worst record I've ever heard
Or the funiest???
It actually grows on you

Reminds me of that song Father Ted wrote to win the competition to become the Irish representant for Eurovision...
Shit am gonna have to go out and buy it!!!


You can't get it out of your head, can you???

[Si the Sigh]

I'm sorry man, but this is just madness IMO! :lol:

Where the hell would you slot that into a set?

Don't get me wrong, the flip sides ok, but I really do think this I love Horses track's horrible! :crackup:

[schlongfingers]

Great track, and playable as well. Don't be a stick-in-the-mud Mr Sigh.

[Si the Sigh]

*Si drags himself out of the mud*

I'm liking the other side more the more I listen to it, but this Horses side...

...Nah, that samples god damn awfull!

I'd buy it for the flip, but not the Horse.

[penthesilea]

do you know where it comes from (that sample???)?
Anything to do with Father Ted?
I swear, it's uncanny the ressemblance...

[schlongfingers]

Just a bit of fun really innit.. certainly an attention grabber.
:lol:

[Si the Sigh]

The samples from a TV advert for a magazine aimed at kids about Horses...

I...can't...get...it...out...of...my...head! :crackup:

"Si loves horses, they are his friends!"

Shit, maybe its growing on me...

[schlongfingers]

Best of ALLL the annneeemals

[Si the Sigh]

:lol:

[jonnyspeed]

Wasn't a dig at you Si - just a general frustration at the world this week ;)

As for where the sample came from?...

[Si the Sigh]

No worries, I know it wasn't. ;)

The worlds i been pretty shit love this week for me horses as well.

[penthesilea]

gonna ask a stupid question but hey...

Who's Michael Forshaw?

[slacker]

I thought this record was top. Quite playable in a wonky sort of way, and extremely funny, I love music (or just about anything) that doesn't take itself seriously. Nice combination of breakiness and hard wonk.

micheal forshaw is a top wonky techno (or so I would call it) producer, whose made some well good stuff also with mark hawkins.

top nasty ****ed up jackin techno, although this release is a leetle different to his usual stuff. Mind you bernard's haircut is described as a "london strangecore" label, so what do you expect but utter absurdity? I love it :)

[jonnyspeed]

Michael Forshaw runs a label called Chan'n'Mikes - and plays alot of more leftfield techno with a chpped but breaky feel to it.

London Strangecore

Quality name! :lol:

[daviec]

It got played at Refresh in Glasgow at the weekend. Go to [_T3chn0lab|:. (http://www.technolab.co.uk) and in the audio section download John McLean's set, to see how it fits into a set. It went down really well. :clap:

[Si the Sigh]

Ok, I will D/L it and take a listen. Cheers for the link. ;)

[fitipaldi]

it's class! surely it's just done as a piss take?

[eyes without a face]

this is a really impressive record, im not bang into that sound overall but its certainly ALOT more forward thinking than most of the acid/london stuff, thats not to say that sound isnt good, but this is at least trying to push techno in another direction

[The Overfiend]

I respect forshaw,
I don't know about some of the stuff he makes.
But I will never ever forget the f*cking red seal remix.

Red seal?

[eyes without a face]

oh yes indeed

i set a pair of speakers on fire playing that record out in a club in manchester, scary stuff!

absolute killer remix of Cold Dust for anyone who doesnt know

[Esox Lucius]

tis a funny track, apart from the sample the actual track is good.

[MangaFish]

blimey, i actually own that track (must be the 1st track posted on here in months) :lol:

[eyes without a face]

tis a proper example of how hard techno should be done, schranz kiddies take note! ;)

[Traxx]

Wasnt it made on a playstation? sure i read in a interview he said it was.

[eyes without a face]

no mate i dont think so, if he made that on a playstation then il eat my hat

[Traxx]

Im sure it was him. He obviously polished it up after in something a lot better, ill try & find the interview.

[Jimfish]

fantastic/shit

shit/fantastic

its noth, and everything in between.. i just dont know really, but i do know that the world is probably a better place now somebody has remixed i love horses..

[Jimfish]

noth = both :oops:

[dirty_bass]

I hate it.
I`m far too po-faced and artistically poncey (oh yes, I admit it) for such sillyness.
But I gotta respect em for doing their own thing, and not just bangin out the compressed loops.

[killarava2day]

no mate i dont think so, if he made that on a playstation then il eat my hat

He definently stated that he made that track on some sortve playstation program for real.

[davethedrummer]

i can't get the father ted image out of my head

" my little horse !!!etc etc etc "

:oops:

[eyes without a face]

then i can only presume he has had ALOT of memory cards and stations hooked up loading all his professional samples in the awful MUSIC 2000 program that was on playstation. ive used it for pissing round and its not even good as a game, so im sure it had alot more to it than simply knocking this up on a playstation
