Influences + I:Cube

I:Cube – Disco Cubizm
I:Cube – Comme Des Esprits

Recently I moved to London. Big change. The day I arrived I was taken to a small birthday party. People There wanted to go out and someone suggested one underground party at which DJ Sneak was playing. YES. Finally I was about to hear him at live performance. His classic mix Buggin’ Da Beats was one of the most listened mix in the late 90′s. I am talking about mixes I used to listen. Chicago house was big for me those years and Sneak as most popular DJ of the second wave of Chicago house scene was my favorite. Deep hypnotic grooves, with the emphasis on the groove, are his signature. That special kind of groove from those days was missing at the latest performance but still, it was DJ Sneak. Great night out.

Dj Sneak – Buggin Da Beats

Few months ago I posted Trash-Dance live mix from Alex Gopher. That reminded me on one of his early works, and also I pulled his album You, my baby and I from dust and gave it a spin. Then I heard he will perform at this years Carnival Party so post about him as an influence would be at least I could do. That would be perfect if Carnival Party wasn’t held last saturday. Ok I was busy making this new layout.
Back to Mr. Gopher and year 1998. I think, ….. at the beginning of that year I heard his track Super Disco from Super Discount Compilation and that track was amazing. Still is. Nice example of French Touch. I just love it.
Party people was the song I used to play and was featured in my latest mix for Shortpants Romance show on Elektrana Radio.
