    Default Woody Mcbride

    what do u guys think of him? personally find alot of his stuff to be very well produced, really different and innovative, but his tracks are also either a hit or a miss, like the remix he did for hydraulix 9...it goes absolutly nowhere and doesnt sound anything like the origional at all.

    but stuff like basketball heroes 2 and Huge on bush are awesome

    I must say in his defense I'm not easily excited by the 303 sound which WM is an absolute master.. so that's also why I don't get/ spin a lot of his stuff!

    I really like most of Woody McBride's stuff, some of it can be a bit cheesy but top knotch production, good DJ glue.

    Basketball hereos - what a tune, original that is and some of the old Communique - does anybody know what happened to communique? Haven't seen anything in ages.

    Been buying some of the new bush releases, nice fat sub-basses that kick arse I reckon.

    What happened to Head in the Clouds - was that the experimental label?

    Anybody seen him DJ ? If so any good?

    I think he`s a very talented producer, not really my style though.

    id agree with u anx. Im not massive on him but huge and basketball heros r awsome tunes.

    Millsy dropped huge as his first tune at atomic jam.That made me feel so warm inside.

    I've only gone for a small amount of his recent stuff, he makes some wicked tunes alright but it really depends what labels he's appearing on. As I mentioned in an earlier post the one on Kobayashi is very nice, really rich grooving techno, Missile one isn't bad either, he did a pretty good track on Framework not too long ago as well. Most of that Communique and Head in the Clouds stuff was brilliant..

    Yeah, I agree with the general consensus here. I don't like all of his stuff just some of it as someone else said. I like some things by most artists I suppose not all things.

    Dustin - you said no comment with repsect DJing. That brief statement appears to be relatively negative. Please explain more, why, what, how, etc.

    I suppose it's up to you to decide whether it's negative or not. He doesn't do it for me personally, but I'm not about to go about and judge someone publicly, it's not fair. All I will say is that he just simply doesn't do it for me.

    Fair comment.

    Indeed, to do that I need to see him play out. Until I do I can't really judge accurately, I suppose i was tryin to gain an insight into other people's views...
