Pilooski - Dirty Edits Vol.I A Collection Of Dirty Classics Selected By Dirty Sound System

Dirty Edits Vol.I A Collection Of Dirty Classics Selected By Dirty Sound System Edited By Pilooski
Label: Discograph
Catalog#: 6136222
Format: CD, Compilation, Limited Edition
Country: France
Released: 29 Oct 2007

Excellent retrospective of one of the best disco re-edit labels going. For Dirty Edits Vol. 1, Pilooski has recruited his like-minded French pals Dirty Sound System to select 11 edits (pretty much the first 3 EPs and 2 unreleased joints) and arrange them on his first CD release. The selection is mind blowing, the edits flawless, and the genres range from deep space disco, balearic slo-mo, breaks-filled garage rock, jamming Krautrock, and unexpected folk covers of songs we all know and love including a cover of Prince's "1999" and a haunting cover of Sound Garden's "Black Hole Sun"!


1 Mono Puff - Pretty Fly
2 99 Frames For Prince - 1999
3 The Alan Parsons Project - I Robot (Pilooski Edit)
4 Edwin Starr - Get Up (Pilooski Edit)
5 Pointer Sisters - Send Him Back (Pilooski Edit)
6 Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorm? - Black Hole Sun
7 Michael Bundt - The Brain Of Oskar Panizza (Pilooski Edit)
8 Ari Boulogne - Le Petit Chevalier
9 Can - Mother Sky (Pilooski Edit)
10 The Human Beinz - Nobody But Me (Pilooski Edit)
11 Pipilotti Rist - I'm A Victim Of This Song (Wicked Game)

Limited edition of 2000, no repress.
Includes the three first ep's + 2 unreleased edits (tracks 5 & 7).

Pilooski - Dirty Edits Vol.2 A Collection Of Dirty Classics Selected By Dirty Sound System

This second edits comp from Paris' dirty crew affirms that for Pilooski and friends, everything old is still new again. Unlike many re-editors, though, the dirty team doesn't limit itself to re-cutting gems from the fertile underground of dusty disco, and the breadth of material on Dirty Edits 2 shows just how wide they're capable of casting their net. Should this comp make its way into your hands, consider yourself well-armed: The next time you play host, you won't have to show off with a cultivated playlist. Simply let this thing roll from start to finish, as it represents a range of people-pleasers that don't resort to the lowest common denominator never a mean feat.

The JAMs - 1987 (What The Fuck Is Going On)

Taken from this Wiki article:

1987 (What the Fuck Is Going On?) is the debut album of The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu (The JAMs: Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty) released in June 1987. Included was a song called "The Queen and I", which sampled large portions of the ABBA single "Dancing Queen". The recording came to the attention of ABBA's management and, after a legal showdown with ABBA and the Mechanical-Copyright Protection Society, the 1987 album was forcibly withdrawn from sale. Drummond and Cauty travelled to Sweden in hope of meeting ABBA and coming to some agreement, taking an NME journalist and photographer with them, along with most of the remaining copies of the LP. They failed to meet ABBA, so disposed of the copies by burning most of them in a field and throwing the rest overboard on the North Sea ferry trip home. In a December 1987 interview, Cauty maintained that they "felt that what [they]'d done was artistically justified. They later went on to release a version of the album entitled "1987 (The JAMs 45 Edits)", stripped of all unauthorised samples to leave periods of protracted silence and so little audible content that it was formally classed as a 12-inch single.

A limited edition release subjected to recall and a destruction order, 1987 became something of a rarity.

1. Hey Hey We Are Not The Monkees (100 BPM)
2. Mind the Gap" [unlisted sample of ambient noise in a London Underground station]
3. Don't Take Five (Take What You Want) (89 BPM)
4. Rockman Rock Parts 2 and 3 (105 BPM)
5. Why Did You Throw Away Your Giro?" [unlisted]
6. Me Ru Con (0 BPM)
7. The Queen and I (99 BPM)
8. Top of the Pops" [unlisted samples of television programmes including Top of the Pops]

Robert Luis - Brighton Treats With Jamaican Beats

Tru Thoughts founder Robert Luis digs into his record collection to offer a double CD Mixtape. The themes for the mix are reggae & dub. The first CD is a down-tempo and listening selection with tracks influenced and played on the Unfold Radio Show. The second CD is more of a club orientated mix covering hip hop, broken beat, funk and drum and bass…all with a Jamaican influence. Strictly limited edition with 400 copies available worldwide. The first CD is correctly entitled Head Nod, and contains reggae, dub, breakbeat and soul tracks with a Jamaican feel - a real cross section of styles that goes very well with red eyes and late night sessions. The second disc is a more sprightly affair and I think an ideal getting-ready-to-go-out CD, puts a smile on your face and a spring in your step! An excellent set from the mind behind one of the UKs best indie labels and a damn fine DJ to boot.

Jah Wobble - The Inspiration of William Blake

Jah Wobble isn't the first person you'd associate with l8th century poet and painter William Blake; but think 'visionary' and 'Londoner' and you'll find them in the same bag. Wobble - an old pal of John Lydon, who was 'too much of a yob' to join the Sex Pistols, but later became PIL's founding bassist - discovered Blake's Songs Of Innocence And Of Experience when a mate gave him the book a few years back. Now he's releasing an album, The Inspiration Of William Blake, featuring Blake's words against an atmospheric soundscape. 'At first I was like, "Tyger, Tyger - fuck off!",' he recalls. 'I thought Blake was some middle class tosser who shot tigers and wrote poems about It. Then late one night when I was bored I started reading him.' Pop-pickers may be unconvinced by Wobble's portentous, melodramatic readings (Island Records were -the album is released on Wobble's 30 Hertz label) but the old magic is still there in the seductive backing tracks and instrumentals - Wobble's usual blend of Eastern esoterica and Western beats, with those distinctive basslines throbbing underneath. 'Whenever I come in contact with great art, the illusion of separation is lifted and I feel very connected,' he explains, 'it's like when you have a good deep conversation - it's this incredible thing where two minds merge into one.'

A Short Film About Chilling

Rightly or wrongly cited as 'the greatest TV show ever made about dance culture' this made for television documentary made a huge impact in the UK when it was first shown and has since become something of a cult film. Certainly it did capture an accurate snapshot of a moment in the history of the music scene - a moment when a small, typically British, hedonistic sub-culture - namely acid house - began to cross over on its way to becoming a remarkably enduring and potent force.

'A Short Film About Chilling' was filmed in Ibiza in 1990 just before that island exploded into the worldwide consciousness as the spiritual home of club culture. It followed a group of DJ's, bands and clubbers intent on 'losing it' in the island's legendary nightclubs which are described by one wag in the film as being like "Disneyland for the club-goer". Since then the island has gone on to become a rights of passage summer destination for a generation of young people from around the world and the film was, for a time, repeated on a seemingly regular cycle on British TV as well as often being programmed in cultural retrospectives and name-checked in all the right books on British youth culture.

Stylistically the film (which was apparently photographed by the cameraman who went on to shoot 'Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels') accurately reflects the timeless vibe of the island at that time. It seems a bit creaky in places by today's standards but this film is refreshingly free of any angle or, worse still, the obligatory patronising narration which seems to accompany youth tv nowadays. This film was definitely something of a yardstick by which other youth television was and should be gauged.

Saint Etienne - Now 4 EP

Earlier this year, Bob Stanley from Saint Etienne said that he would offer a unique Saint Etienne CD to everyone who would help him fill the holes in his "Now That's What I Call Music!" CD collection.

The collection is now complete, and Bob has sent a special Saint Etienne EP called "Now 4" to everyone who's tracked down the missing NOW CDs.

The EP is signed and limited to 72 copies and includes 4 tracks: "Gotta Jump" (an unreleased mix of the Xenomania-produced "Got A Job"), "Back To 95", "Like A Motorway" and the Matt Dixon/Simon Li mix of "Soft Like Me".

Here's the tracklist with liner notes written by Bob Stanley:

1) Gotta Jump 3.02
"This ended up as the b side of Side Streets - except it was the wrong mix (a demo) and had the wrong title (bad phone line). So here is the finished Xenomania recording for the first time. An attempt to get inside the mind of a snotty teenager, dozens of whom lurked in the Xenomania foyer, sniggering when we walked in"

2) Back to '95 6.46
"The start of 1995 was soundtracked by Baby D's Let Me Be Your Fantasy and N Trance's Set You Free, which promised a year of top atmos-breakbeat pop. It didn't quite materialise, but we were so enthused that we recorded this tribute to the modern world with Vanessa from Espiritu. It's hard to imagine the tempo changes working, in retrospect, but I wish we'd pressed a few white labels. Within five years, there was a club in London called Back to '95. So it wasn't just us, then. Sadly - or wisely - we didn't have a crack at UK Garage in 2000, much as we loved Re Rewind, Sweet Like Chocolate, Flowers etc."

3) Like a Motorway [Japanese Version] 5.47
"It seemed like a good idea, for our Japanese tour of December '94, to press a one track CD to give away at the shows. What better than to sing in Japanese? France Gall did it, after all. It was pointed out to us, by the means of blanket silence, that our hosts might think we were poking fun. So it was shelved, sweet but entirely useless."

4) Soft Like Me [Li Dixon Red Corner Remix] 7.52
"When Soft Like Me was given an appropriately soft release by Mantra, the 12" was scrapped. Which meant no home for this mix of our potentially advert-soundtracking, Home Counties G-Funk classic. Matt Dixon has since become a major cog in Xenomania's smooth machinery. His ambition is to produce a duet between Kimberley Walsh and Fernando Torres."

Saint Etienne Daho - Resurection

St. Etienne Daho - Reserection 1995

Reserection EP was a 1995 release by French pop star Étienne Daho, working alongside English dance-pop band Saint Etienne. It was only released in France and Japan.

The resurection of the title was a response to rumours at the time that Daho was HIV-positive, or even that he had already died. The opening track, Reserection, puts the matter to rest as Daho states that he will rise from his, "cendres fiction...encore et encore" (fictitious ashes... again and again)

The only English song was Accident, a reworked version of Daho's 1984 French-language hit single Weekend à Rome, with original English lyrics, Daho's speech from Reserection is also reprised within the song. Jungle Pulse, meanwhile, is a French reworking of Saint Etienne's own Filthy, originally in English.

Daho only released Jungle Pulse as a single, but later Eurodance producer Steve Rodway produced a remix of Accident that became He's on the Phone, released as the single from Saint Etienne's first greatest hits compilation, Too Young to Die - The Singles.

The band later worked with Daho on the single Le Premier Jour, from his greatest hits compilation Singles.

Freak Power - In Dub - The Fried Funk Food EP

The Fried Funk Food E.P. is classic electronic meets dub in a way that has held it's timeless charm since 1994. Over the years I have come back to this simple 6 track EP and enjoyed it over and over again. Also worth noting is the album is produced by Norman Cook (aka Fatboy Slim, Feelgood Factor, The Mighty Dub Katz, Pizzaman, Sunny Side Up, Yum Yum Head Food) before he rose to stardom. Highly recommended.

Alabama 3 - House of Blues, Cleveland 2008

"...Alabama 3 are a pop band, a punk rock, blues and country techno situationist crypto-Marxist-Leninist electro band. They never went on X Factor or Pop Idol or Stooge Quest. They did it the old fashioned way; Back in 1996, they threw a big old party, invited all their friends. They took a fistfull of blotters and half a dozen disco biscuits and then made it up as they went along. Geffen records bought it..! for a million dollars! They never needed a self-appointed quango of jaded vampires to tell them how to sing the blues...they got the Mojo Rising. They have the power to raise the dead...

They spent half of the advance from Geffen on various contraband items and with the rest made an over-produced, brilliant situationist masterpiece called 'Exile on Coldharbour Lane'. Now, 7, nearly 8, albums later they're still out preaching their Gospel all over the world. They've got into a whole bunch of trouble and met a whole bunch of nice people. They make friends where ever they go..." (quoted from website)

The Nextmen - The Yoga Mix

Brilliant promo mix CD given away free with any purchase greater than £45 from the Addict Clothing online store. The blurge from said website describes it as; "Fresh from dropping their critically acclaimed LP 'This Was Supposed To Be The Future' featuring Fat Freddy's Drop, LSK, Sway, Dynamite, Zarif and Alice Russell as well as a crazy touring period smashing Glastonbury, Big Chill, Pacha Ibiza and further afield across Europe, Far East Asia, Australia and New Zealand... they have firmly secured their spot as the 'go-to' eclectic DJ's certain to raise the floor at any hot party.
It's the usual metal mash up business here in the mix as well, the kind of set that never stands still, as they weave their way through reggae, funk, hip hop, soul, indie, house and drum and bass, joining the dots and reworking the old with the new.

Spacemen 3/Wooden Shjips - Big City/I Believe It

Spacemen 3/Wooden Shjips Big City/I Believe It (7" on Great Pop Supplement).

For it's 50th release the Great Pop Supplement offers up this incredible pairing of like minded spirits, for a total one off split 45 released earlier this month. 2 previously unreleased nuggets from legendary psych rockers from both sides of the pond. The Spacemen 3 tune is a beautiful demo to their last ever single, the mighty "Big City". stripped of it's lyrical nod to the Electric Prunes, but still very much displaying the Kraftwerk influence of the original, the softer spoken lyrical passages offer up an almost confessional electro blues variant, unique to this early take. After 2 studio LPs, Wooden Shjips are often bracketed with the Spacemen, with their blissed out Velvets / Doors / Kraut sound- so it's perhaps of no surprise that they should take on a Spacemen gem for their own reworking. "I Believe It" from the classic "Playing with Fire" album which for this rendering sounds faithfully locked into a trance-blues holding pattern with a chugging fuzz backdrop gelling the instruments together. A killer take on an old favourite, debuted recently on the road and offered up here as their first outright UK release. Packaging as ever with the GPS is of paramount importance, cover art is provided by Natty Brooker (the original Spacemen percussionist) and is from original work put together during his time within the band's first line-up. A pretty much essential and incredible 45, destined not to hang around long....it didnt!

Lemon Jelly - Rolled Oats

ROLLED OATS is one of the more interesting limited 7" singles that Lemon Jelly has released on their own. Since these singles are full of uncleared samples there is no way that they could put these out without paying a hefty licensing fee. The name Lemon Jelly does not appear on any of these singles so you have to "be in the know" to understand who this is. The single comes in a small burlap (hessian) sack with the words 'Rolled Oats' silk screened on the front. No label affiliation, no credits, no nothing! When you slide the record out it is a shocking bright gold color. Rolled is printed on one side, Oats on the other. Rolled samples "Feel Like Making Love" by Bad Company and is based on Lemon Jelly's own track "The Curse of Ka'zar". Oats uses elements of Lemon Jelly's "Closer" with a sample of George Michael's "Heal The Pain."

The Verve - Voyager 1

Before they added the 'The' to their name they were known as Verve and were one of the UK's finest psychedelic alternative bands. Voyager 1 captures live performances from New York and London recorded in 1992. Only 1000 clear blue vinyl copies were pressed, making the ownership of this album a collectors item. However, 300 of the copies were ruined in transit from Britain to the States, making this even rarer. Black vinyl copies do exist, however the amount of copies is unknown. Roughly recorded and full of cracks and pops, this vinyl transfer can't be compared to their later studio recordings, but this captures Verve at their live best, taking the audience on a cerebral journey. An exceptional highlight is the track 'South Pacific' which is only available on this album.

Altern8 - Live PA Shelley's Car Park 1991

Very rare bootleg of Altern-8s infamous, afterhours "gig on the back of a truck in the carpark outside the club"... the guy commentating i swear is a young Kevin Bacon, him that got kicked off Blue Peter for chemical indulgences...The 2.30 AM rave in Shelley's car park. For all those who don't know Shelley's isn't some northern bird or a crap shoe shop, it is was one of the best clubs of that time. Altern8 held a rave in the car park at 2.30 am on the 15th of September 1991. An interview with Altern8 was recorded which was available on vinyl as limited edition.

Portishead - Mixhead

Artist Portishead (Geoff Barrow & Andy Smith)
Title Mixhead
Label Promotional Material
Notes:
I guess we received that CD at our record store way back when Portishead's second album was released (1997) , it was a simple white cardboard double CD with only the letter P for Portishead on the front; the first CD is an interview of Geoff Barrow (the man behind Portishead's music) and the second CD is a Mixed CD by Geoff Barrow and Andy Smith; it was made to introduce people to their influences and features the typical Portishead/Andy Smith type of DJ set, starting from slow heavy beats hip hop, moving to 60s soul featuring rare rock records from the 60s/early 70s, weird soundtracks, and anything to make you dance! This Mixed set is exactly the way it was in its original form, which is Un-edited (you cannot access the tracks it is one only track of 58 minutes).

Invite some friends over, serve some cool martinis and play this loud, I promise the effect is guaranteed

Primal Scream - Screamixadelica

A group of remixers got together in 2005 and remixed Primal Scream’s “Screamadelica” making it available via bittorrent on the web and asking for a charitable donation in return. Entitled “Screamixadelica” it also features a bonus track in the form of the track “Screamadelica” which was only available on the Dixie Narco EP.

The Project page stated:

"There’s no reason for this. How do you improve upon perfection? You don’t. We don’t pretend to think this comes close to the Scream’s masterpiece, but then nothing else does. So what primalscreamremixed.com offers is a different spin, moving from chill through dub via glitch to drum & bass. Not a million miles away from the eclecticism of the source..."

BBC 6 Mix - Lee 'Scratch' Perry

Sometimes more than a little eccentric and cryptic in interviews, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry’s good relationship with Trojan and the BBC makes for a brilliant session in which he introduces his own productions alongside records that have influenced him (including Bob Dylan, Fats Domino, The Temptations and Wilson Pickett). ‘Scratch’ also explains his unique approach to record production and gives his account of many of the legends that surround him.

The Verve - Lollapalooza 1994

July 16th, 1994
World Music Theatre, Tinley Park
Chicago, Illinois

This show captures The Verve on their magical rise, just as they were transitioning between the first two periods of their career. The set features a few at the time released tracks, Gravity Grave, Man Called Sun (Verve EP), Slide Away, Blue (A Storm In Heaven), yet to be released songs such as Stormy Clouds (A Northern Soul), Rolling People (Urban Hymns), Let The Damage Begin (This Is Music B-side), Been On The Shelf Too Long (early version of This Is Music), and the unreleased track Mover. The tour became notorious for the events of 11 July - Ashcroft was hospitalised for dehydration after a massive session of drinking and Salisbury was arrested for destroying a hotel room in Kansas in a drug-fuelled delirium. However, the band were performing again the very next day. Ashcroft later recalled: "At the start, it was an adventure, but America nearly killed us."

There is amp interference for the first minute of Let the Damage Begin. After that it's EXCELLENT!

Air - Deck Safari (4 xCD)

The sound of Air? Well here's what made the classic album 'Moon Safari' (1998) sound the way it did, this limited edition 4 CD set is a mammoth 4 hour journey through the personal record collections of former architect Nicloas Godin and mathematician Jean-Benoit Dunckel. Artists include Pink Floyd, Horace Andy, Brigitte Gardot, Prince, Beastie Boys, Iggy Pop, Rolling Stones and many, many more. The four Promo CDs first surfaced in 2002 after airing on BBC Radio 1's Essential Mix. The 4 hour mix was played in back to back Essential Mix shows over two weeks. Some funny trivia about these two mixes is that when they were asked Air just assumed, wrongly, that it was a 4 hour mix the Beeb were after, not the usual 2 hours! Their stupidity is our gain...

Beth Orton - SuperPinkyMandy

In 1993, 3 years before she released her first EP and 4 years before her first full album, Beth Orton collaborated with William Orbit as part of a duo called Spill. They released a cover version of a John Martyn song, “Don’t Wanna Know About Evil,” that led to an appearance by Beth on Orbit’s “Strange Cargo III” album, which led in turn to a album they did together featuring Beth’s vocals. They called it SuperPinkyMandy, named after a rag doll which she bought at a jumble sale at the age of six. The album had 10 tracks and was released in Japan only, with a very limited pressing of 5,000 copies. Amazingly, even though Beth has gone on to great international success and is a much beloved recording artist, “Superpinkymandy” has never been released and, were it not for the inclusion of 2 songs from the album in “Pass in Time: The Definitive Collection” in 2003, “Superpinkymandy” would have remained in complete obscurity. The last song on the CD, “Release Me,” is a good example of the album’s sound, but every song on the album is terrific and it makes you wonder why in the world it has never seen the light of day. Superpinkymandy also contains a completely different take on the song “She Cries Your Name,” which became a hit for Beth when it was included on her “Trailer Park” album.

2. Faith Will Carry
3. Yesterday's Gone

Dr. Rubberfunk & Smoove - Fantasy Funk Band Mixes

Great Funk mash up with a twist! The first in an interesting concept from the people behind the BBC funk and soul show. Basically trying get some mixes done as if legends like Nina Simone, James Brown, Bootsy Collins etc were doing their thing in the same recording session as one band. First up, they've lined up Dr Rubberfunk and Smoove to take on the brief and the results are ace! Both serving up a heavy JB"s backing with Nina Simone vocals layered on top. The Rubberfunk mix is particularly good changing up the groove half way through! Limited to an exclusive 500 7"s this one's destined to become a bit of a collectors item...

The fantasy funk band consists of:

Male Vocals: James Brown
Female Vocals Nina Simone
Drums: Clyde Stubblefield
Bass: Bootsy Collins
Guitar: Johnny 'Guitar' Watson
Hammond: James Taylor
Keys: Stevie Wonder
Horns/ Brass Section: The Horny Horns
Male Backing: The Temptations
Female Female Vocals: The Supremes

Lemon Jelly - Soft/Rock


"Soft/Rock" is a single released by Lemon Jelly on 21 June 2001.

The 7" single was released in two formats. The first was limited to 1,000 copies and released on blue vinyl, each coming in its own hand-stitched denim sleeve with a flavoured condom. The second was also limited to 1,000 copies but released on black vinyl in a black sleeve with a sticker.

The first twelve or so (exact numbers unknown) of the blue vinyl edition were different in design from the others, featuring enhanced embroidery and a business card from the award-winning embroidery artist Laura Lees. These extremely rare singles were very time-consuming to fabricate, so the design was simplified for the remainder of the format. Therefore the first twelve are highly sought after and occasionally change hands on eBay for several hundred pounds.

The A-side is "Soft" featuring a sample from Chicago's "If You Leave Me Now" with a vocal track taken from an archive episode of the religious "Pause for Thought" segment of a BBC Radio 2 show, while the B-side is "Rock" and samples The Black Crowes' version of Otis Redding's "Hard To Handle."

So I traipse into Glasgae yesterday with the intention of obtaining a record deck. One of the main 12"s I wanted to rip is a wee promo of Come Home i've got, the Weatherall mix on side a, a Youth mix on side b.

Frankie Valli - Beggin' (Pilooski Re-edit)


Pilooski made a big splash on international dance floors last year with his smoothed out electro remix of Frank Valli's classic hit "Beggin"....

The out-of-print edit got picked up by UK label 679 for an officially licensed re-release; they call it an "euphoric fusion of emotional Northern soul stomper and end-of-the-night, hands-in-the-air rave moment...simply great feel good dance music that's set to sound as good on daytime radio as it already does at a club."
