|Actually Superstition is a Play It Again Sam label, and has no
|affiliation to Eye-Q. It's based in Hamburg, unlike Eye-Q, which is from
|Frankfurt. Oliver Lieb (i.e. Spicelab) has his best work on Superstition
|(I think).
right.. by 'mentioned in the same breath' i mean that superstition is
as almost as widely respected as eye-q and very similar in style..
| 1st, a few qs about recent thingies...
|Superstition: right. Ive now got a friends copy of Lieb's LSG 'fragile' ep
|on this label. It seems OK, but not essential; however, I heard a tune
|from the LSG 'Blueprint' ep, also on superstition. This *was* excellent.
|Any details on this - ie its age - is it out now? I saw a 2lp pack
|complition from the Superstit label - apparently this is ok, but not
|bollock blowing. Listened to another tune on same label (forgot title)
|and same applies to this (nice to note it was at uk price even though
|it was imported though).
the most essential 12"s on superstition are paragliders, which is an
oliver lieb pseudonym, and velocity, which is dj kid paul from berlin,
who spins a club night with paul van dyk.. i highly suggest both the
original mixes of velocity and the brand new remixes that i hear have
been licensed to guerilla..
also notable is new remixes of paragliders will be coming out on
rising high RSN with the original, a new mix by humate, and a new mix
by mijk van dijk (microglobe, marmion)..
just this week new remixes of lsg's (oliver lieb) 'fragile' are out with
a pascal f.e.o.s. mix and 2 or 3 vapourspace mixes.. not drop dead
awesome, but decent in its own right..
and ALSO out this week (superstition are *busy*) is superstition
allstars vol. 1 which includes one brand new song each from humate,
jens lissat, lsg, and marmion.. the lsg song on here is probably my
favorite lsg tune..
