good to see a couple of peeps namechecking stanton warriors on idm - their mix album 'the stantion session' released in 2001, is actually really fucking great. for various reasons i was given this record, and it sat on my floor for months. until someone mentioned them to me - and i was like.. 'yeah, but this is cheesy garage - right?' .. i expected just 'cool' music, because it wasn't marketed so much as a commercial record but an underground one with credibility for real people and not just 'underground garage' (or whatever) heads.. anyway - i put this record on and it is really great. yeah, a bit of cheesy diva action but take it tongue and cheek and actually this is booooty-lucious-a-shakin. certainly refreshing.. the sleeve notes make a comment which i think is true, it's talking about the history of stanton warriors and says that people were 'unable to bracket [determine] the warriors as the brightest hope or two-step heroes gone leftfield' nice. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
