Journeys by DJ: 70 Minutes of Madness is a DJ mix album by English electronic duo, released on 16 October 1995. It was the eighth instalment in the Journeys by DJ series of mix albums released by the label of the same name. Unlike previous editions, which focused on house music, Coldcut's mix profiles the act's 'freestyle' mixing approach, blending 35 tracks that span many genres, including techno, hip hop, electro, jungle and funk, into an eclectic, frenetic DJ set.

Inspired by their Kiss FM radio series Solid Steel, Coldcut created Journeys by DJ: 70 Minutes of Madness with collaborators Kevin Foakes and Patrick Carpenter. The team were motivated to prove what could be achieved with a DJ mix and to exhibit true DJ culture. Licensing some songs proved difficult, resulting in several last minute replacements. The final mix incorporates rapid changes in tempo, spoken word samples, scratching and heavy layering.

On release, the album received wide critical acclaim for its diverse track selection, dextrous mixing and originality, becoming the best reviewed DJ mix album of the era. It has since been widely described as one of the greatest DJ mix albums ever released, featuring in lists compiled by Q, Spin, The Quietus and DJ Magazine. In 1998, it was named the best compilation album ever by Jockey Slut. It has also been cited as an influence on big beat and mashup music. Originally reaching number 41 on the UK Compilation Chart and falling out of print in 1998 following the expiration of the track licenses, Journeys by DJ was re-released in May 2002, allowing it to reach a new peak of number 28.

Plant

Art rock album, but also one to 'avoid'. "his most experimental, a radical departure from his signature sound. One critic likened Shaken ‘N’ Stirred to the new wave music of Talking Heads, and described Plant as 'a chameleon with a sharp ear for new sound'. But in his eagerness to sound relevant, something more important was lost. Shaken ‘N’ Stirred was smart, but soulless. Even the better songs – Little By Little, Pink And Black – were paper-thin. And Plant, normally such an emotive singer, seemed detached on nonsensically titled songs such as Hip To Hoo and Doo Doo A Do Do. But then Plant has always been his own man."[5]

15th best. "In retrospect, you can see this as the start of an experimental streak that shows up on albums that appear later on this list. But besides a handful of exceptions – like "Little by Little" (with that cool rhythm provided by Little Feat's Richie Hayward) – 'Shaken n Stirred' is more dense than listenable. As with Plant's debut, there just aren't enough good songs."[6]

"Influenced by everyone from Prince to Depeche Mode, Plant had already upped the synth-and-sequencer quota on 1985's Shaken 'n' Stirred, but the album stiffed and the singer sought fresh young blood to help him change course."[7]

ZZ Top

In his book A New Day Yesterday: UK Progressive Rock & the 70s (2020), Mike Barnes describes Earthbound as a "rather ropey sounding" document of the harder-edged performances that King Crimson played on their US tour subsequent to Islands.[8]

"Orland" and "Peoria" are essentially jams centred on two chords.[9]

On "Groon", Wallace's drum kit is processed through a EMS VCS 3 synthesiser operated by Pete Sinfield, an effect that Barnes opines "must have sounded amazingly new in 1971, [even if it] now comes over as something very much of its time."[8]

Ian Penman:[16]

    • Demons, along with Love Life: "are two utterly beguiling, truly adult love songs, tru blu modern soul; Gray sings like she's sitting atop a lover with a great big curly smile on her face. 'Demons' is simply massive, irresistible, truly moving — like Coil sung by Mavis Staples — a surefire Number One which also stirs corners of your soul normally closed for repair: here the World is truly let in, the heart listened to, the breath let out that for so long has been held in (or strangulated in cocaine chatter): epiphanic, blessed, redemptive."[16]

Barney Hoskyns:[17]

    • Ya Mama is one of "two old-skool Fatboy tracks" along with Mad Flava[17]
    • ForCook, the pivotal track is "the slow, deeply soulful ‘Demons’, featuring the parched Joplin/Holiday squall of Macy Gray over a piano sample from Bill Withers’ live ‘I Can’t Write Left-Handed’."[17]
    • Continued, quote Cook, "The funniest thing is that Macy’s whole hook – ‘All of my demons wither away/Ecstacy comes and they cannot stay’ – came from the fact the working title on the tape I gave her was simply ‘Withers 1’," says Cook. "So we get in the studio and she starts singing it, and I just went, ‘Ohmygod’... it literally took my breath away. And still sometimes when I hear it, there’s a couple of notes she hits, and I remember that magic of when she sang it the first time."[17]
    • Song For Shelter is "another key track" and "a paean to house music that reasserts the values of club culture over those of ephemeral celebrity." Cook: "The overriding thing about the album, apart from that other people have said it’s soulful and uplifting, is that it’s back-to-basics. ‘Song For Shelter’ says: This is why we love clubs, this is why we love house music... for all my dalliances with pop stardom."[17]

Reynolds[18]

    • Some stuff about Sunset
    • "Weapon of Choice" is "just ghastly, a Propellerheads-esque, Sixties-into-Nineties pastiche of Hammond, horns, and go-go dancer percussion, surely destined for a discotheque scene in Austin Powers 3."[18]
    • "Demons" is "Praise You, Part 2" with "blues licks, deep Stax bass, and a lyric that makes the MDMA/religious rapture equation ('all of your demons will wither away/Ecstasy comes and they cannot stay).' All this Christian imagery and Authentic Black Person huskiness will probably get Halfway tagged as a post-Play move. But you could just as easily see Play as a 'Praise You' rip-off. Moreover, house music's always had a gospel flavor" (such as ex-choirboy Darryl Pandy on 1986's melismatic 'Love Can't Turn Around' "and the Biblical imagery of Joe Smooth's 'Promised Land' to preacher-sampling tracks like DHS's 'House of God'", as well as garage producer Todd Edwards' music as The Sample Choir.[18]
    • Star 69: "a rampage of heavily filtered house featuring a a Biggie soundalike sneering "they don't know what is what/they just strut/what the fuck?!""Cite error: The <ref> tag has too many names (see the help page).
    • Song for Shelter: praises the unexpected reappearance of that sample, signifying "not B-boy menace but the house convert's pity for the unbelievers who've never experienced the state of grace."[18]
    • He continues: "'Song For Shelter' is a gorgeous vision of disco heaven, from the poet's blissed babble about dancers with "wings for feet" and Jesus being a DJ, to the way the track's spangled billow winds down to a drone-rock gulf of light that could be Labradford or Stars of the Lid, before catching flashback echoes of the idyllic piano chords from 'Talking 'Bout My Baby' and then finally going out with a cupola of radiant reverberance. Using another's voice to spell out his personal creed, 'Shelter' is Cook, the king of shallow, making his bid for deepness. It makes you wish he'd had the nerve to shed his party-fodder provider persona altogether and instead make an entire album in the halcyon space between 'Sunset' and 'Song for Shelter'. Maybe next time."[18]

Gap

[edit]

33⅓ author R. J. Wheaton: the "first androgynous supermodel", said Jean-Paul Gaultier, and "the Grandmother of Trip-Hop" said NME later. Part of the New York art-fashion-literary scene of the early 1980s. Moved to London in the mid-80s. "She was listening to 'dancehall and Scientist, or singers like Vera Hall, Iris DeMent and The Carter Family, or Bakoya Pygmy music'. Witch was finished in 1990 but not released until 1993. "The album suggests, certainly, dub's thick pace and bass, ambient techno and hip-hop. But Witch is subversive and political where so much of trip-hop was interpersonal and introspective, most obviously on 'N1 Ear' ('I still can't get birth control / While some fucker's roaming the moon'). It suggests an alternate genre which was made of the same thing but might have been a great deal more piercing.[19]

Mat Smith (Electronic Sound review):

  • Hailed as "the grandmother of trip hop" because of the album. Prior to this, she was a New York model who became an "uncompromising musician and poet" after meeting with Burroughs and Basquiat, then moved to London and "wound up in a scene that was recovering from the brief explosion of punk but aggressively evolving towards artsier concerns".[20]
  • Recorded under the alias ©, "being Winer’s angry response to the concept of words being ‘owned’ through copyright."[20]
  • Her collaborators include "PiL’s Jah Wobble, Adam And The Ants’ Kevin Mooney (Winer’s future husband), video director John Maybury, and Culture Club’s Helen Terry, while the album was principally produced by Winer, Mooney and Renegade Soundwave’s Karl Bonnie."[20]
  • It "surfaced as a white label on Rhythm King’s Transglobal imprint in 1990, but didn’t receive an official release until 1993."[20]
  • Musically, it is "positioned singularly at the intersection of dub, hip-hop and spoken word, with tracks loitering around that junction aimlessly, skulking darkly and kicking sounds nonchalantly against the kerb. The influence of working with Burroughs on his cut-up recordings comes through, with Winer creating loops and disconnected observations about the weather, sexual inequality, war, nudity, finance and advertising slogans."[20]
  • "Flove" features a "hiccupping, heavily-processed voice over a classic Renegade Soundwave groove of heavy bass and floating percussion", and is similar to "MIA sonic genius Bonnie"'s work with Danny Briotett and Gary Asquith, making his influence likely.[20]
  • In his review for Electronic Sound, Smith considers the music to grab listeners, and believes three of the best songs were co-written by Bonnie, "standing out as major highlights among his own criminally slight discography". "Whether Winer deserves the acclaim of being the inventor of trip hop is debatable, but ‘Witch’ remains a powerful statement, even a quarter century on. Copyright laws and a general move toward restraint means we’re unlikely to see this type of hybrid album emerge and achieve such cult status ever again."[20]

The Vinyl Factory's Lazlo Rugoff says its her 1993-released debut album, and "its combination of hip-hop samples and spoken word tracks helped to push forward the burgeoning trip-hop sound forward."[21]

Quietus article from Bernie Brooks (not on the album itself):

  • By the early 1980s, Winer provided vocals, lyrics and instrumentation in Kevin Mooney's musical activities, following the dissolution of Adam and the Ants. She made Witch with a "slew of friends".[22]
  • Released in 1990 on white label. It is "incredible. 42 minutes of mutated dub and hip hop, like the best On-U Sound record that On-U Sound didn't release."[22]
  • Songs: "N1 Ear" is "a furious feminist anthem set to a massive, booming drum loop and killer bass line. It’s supremely groovy, straight out of ‘Beat Bop’-era NYC. It sounds like it was recorded in a filthy loft with no hot water." Meanwhile, "Dream 1" is "a woozy, sea-sick lullaby sort of thing", while "He Was" is a languid, warm dub song that Brooks believes "feels like it's about New York".[22]
  • On her 2021 retrospective compilation When I Hit You – You’ll Feel It (Light in the Attic records), Witch is represented by "N1 Ear", "The Boy Who Used 2 Whistle", "Dream 1" and "He Was".[22]
  • Initially released "as the commercially suicidal "©". That’s right, the copyright symbol. Surrounded by trappings of the occult, it occurs to me that this might be a potent sigil, a claim of ownership. Ownership of the sounds within, of herself. Though she’d discard this alter ego, it still strikes me as a profound gesture, especially for a veteran of the fashion industry: Winer’s identity is her own."[22]

Caroline Sullivan of The Guardian wrote in her review that while Winer has been called a "female Tom Waits", this does not convey her music's "freeform oddness". "Winer recites advertising slogans over minimalist dub rhythms, and sings a bit in a heavy, brooding voice. Her breathy style is said to have inspired Madonna's Justify Your Love. It's more accessible than it sounds, and is worth investigating."[23]

Select reviewer Andrew Perry says it is simply pronounced "C". He advised listeners not to "hold any of that [modelling for a Vogue cover, being Burroughs' teenage secretary, writing songs for Grace Jones, Madonna and Sinead] against her, mind, as her debut LP hinges on deliciously catchy reggae basslines, near-tribal percussion and hazy spoken narratives - like Laurie Anderson meets Lee Perry, or The Drum Club with words." Says the basslines come from Jah Wobble. "Little wonder that Witch has been nominated for the '93 Mercury Music Award. As art dub weirdness goes, it's class stuff."[24]

Wyndham Wallace of The Quietus (2012):

  • Argued by some to have originated trip hop with, until 2012, her "only commercially released album", and the NME dubbed her "the grandmother of trip hop", though Winer considers this dubious. "As far as I know that term didn’t arise until later, one of those things that critics make up in order to better organise their record collections. As we were making Witch, a lot of cassettes with different mixes were circulating around London. It’s possible they heard some of these. I probably heard Massive in 1990 when Witch was already recorded. Of course, it’s always possible that I was influenced by them, but at the time I was more likely to be listening to Dancehall and Scientist, or singers like Vera Hall, Iris DeMent and The Carter Family, or Bakoya Pygmy music. And I haven’t been accused of being influenced by June Carter or the Pygmies yet."[25]
  • "originally released as a white label in early 1990 (though exact dates remain vague, even to those involved)"[26]
  • More on trip hop: to those who knew, "she had inadvertently stumbled upon a musical style that was not only prescient and innovative, but also unusually articulate and powerful. In their minds, she was a fearsome, fearless prophet before her time whose beats were blunt, whose aesthetics were ingenious and whose lyrics were both provocative and cerebral."[26]
  • Not done with this yet

Remember NME and Maker

Van the bin

[edit]
Composition

Music critic Richard S. Ginell called it the culmination of Morrison's spiritual jazz period and "perhaps not coincidentally" his final Warner Bros. album, in which the "deepest, most inward areas" of the singer's "renegade Irish soul" are explored.[27] The record is largely mellow and includes four instrumentals.[27] "Higher Than the World" features a choir-like synthesizer form Mark Isham. The instrumental "Connswater" is considered by Ginell to be Morrison's most Irish-flavoured piece up to that point and until the 1988 Chieftans record. "Rave on, John Donne" is "in part a recitation invoking a roster of writers over a supple two-chord vamp" while the only rock song, "The Street Only Knew Your Name", is still layered with synths.[27]

Reception

Writing for AllMusic, Ginell wrote that the almost "forgotten" album sold poorly and perplexed contemporary rick critics with its high number of instrumentals, but believed that those who bought the album "consider it one of the most cherished items in their Van Morrison collections." He wrote that although mellow, the record is "never flacid or complacent; there is a radiance that glows throughout."[27]

Timothy and Elizabeth Bracy of Stereogum call it a "bizarre, but still thrilling" album that "does its level best to defy categorization." They add:

"Awash in a placid stream of atmospherics, it barely touches on the rock and soul idiom that has so long been Morrison's template. Like a distinctly Irish take on late period Roxy Music, the release seems eager to challenge the album form altogether. Gorgeous instrumental digressions morph into romantic pop, balladry and then digress formless again. Melodies occur seemingly haphazard and improvised and then reoccur as though conjured. Some believed Van had gone crazy by this point. Another interpretation is that he had finally figured out yet more things the rest of us don't know."[28]

Faust Tapes

[edit]

Greg Kot of The Chicago Tribune included it "The avant-garde on disc: An introduction to avant-garde rock on CD." They write, "A jumpy but fascinating glimpse into what happened in a farmhouse-turned-sound-laboratory in northern Germany more than two decades ago."[40]

Jon Savage of The Observer reviewed the 1987 reissue (Recommended RR6). "Faust's inspired collages" still sound timeless, and are "still best heard on The Faust Tapes", but notes So Far and Faust as very good also.[41]

1973 Reading Evening Post Review[42]

1973 Cambridge Evening News article[43]

1973 Bracknell and Ascot Times review[44]

"At Island, one of the strangest stories we heard was about" The Faust Tapes, released by Virgin and distributed by Island Records. "This album of private tapes ... is selling for 34 pence (about 85 cents) as a publicity gimmick and is having an amazing success, although Virgin Records loses money on every copy. The music is a strange kind of electronic rock, the kind that is beginning to be heard in America too."[45]

Evening Standard: "When an album has sold a healthy 60,000 copies in the first few weeks of release, it hardly seems logical to delete the title. But this is what Virgin Records is" doing, "for the simple reason that each album sold loses the company about 1p. The LP sells for the same price as a single and was issued as a promotional gimmick to help establish Faust, one of Germany's most significant avant garde rock groups in Britain."[46]

"Still pleasingly avant-garde", "marketed to British audiences by the fledging Virgin label for the price of a single."[47]

First for Virgin after being dropped by Polydor. "A generation bought the 49p Faust Tapes LP, promptly dumped it at the local record exchange, waited 10 years and then re-bought it on the realisation that it was a masterpiece."[48]

One of "the most listened to bands in the mid-Seventies, thanks to Virgin Records which put out their Faust Tapes album for the cost of about two Curlywurlys. A fantastic sound collage, it was proper hippie music and it's only right that they are having something of a renaissance in this age of electro beats."[49]

C'mon Kids

[edit]

Shane Brown of The Dispatch Sun-Argus named it his fifth favourite album of 1997, commenting that Carr is arguably "the most gifted songwriter of the last decade". Calls it "their most experimental offering to date, matching Carr's lyrics with an array of sonic soundscapes from Beach Boys harmonies to dance beats to an avant garde extremism reminiscent of Frank Zappa".[50]

Sean Leary of the same paper in a best albums of 1996 list said the album grew on him, dubbing it a true "pastiche of style and influences, linked together by a distinctly pop sensibility."[51]

The News Journal review (1997, 4 stars): album is "an extremist reaction" to the commercial success of Wake Up. "While Wake Up was an infectious album of three-minute quick-hook Britpop, C'mon Kids is obviously meant to alienate any fans who weren't true fans." "It is an eclectic, avant-garde, experimental album featuring two hard rock albums assuring the album of a quick exit from the UK charts." Alongside those singles, there is "two trip-hop songs, a few ballads, a few experimental guitar rock tracks and even a few acoustic efforts." Considers it "brilliant, albeit confused" but it won't crack the US charts.[52]
