But have you seen the lineup?! Gonna be bonkers

Loving the pork mix. So much great stuff and I'd forgotten how clean and deep there stuff was. So good. Something special in that Hull water !!! Great mix

This is the only thing I ever picked up on Pork Recordings and there was zero info on the label not even a title or a phone number. Turns out it was Rennie Pilgrem

I reckon this would go really nicely into that.

yeah, nice.

i hadn't realised tetris were a russian group - the name makes a bit more sense now.
looks like that album was their only release on pork records according to discogs.
weird to think that a small hull based label was putting out russian house music in the early 2000's
or maybe it isn't? ~shrug~

They were just trying to fit in?

Ah well you are a nice guy. When you coming back on BTDT?

Hey mate
Yeah I did know about Tetris but had totally forgotten all this detail, the album art def twigged my deep skunk-addled memories.
The key to their releasing non-Hull artists: what I hazily remember Porky B (the label’s co-runner and source of the name) said about the first Dub Plates From The Lamp compilation Pork 072… basically he/they (ie & Steve Cobby) was being sent quite a few unsolicited demos on record (or not … porky b famously was an early adopter of digital, no Fila B album was released on wax on Pork, only later represses on Twenty Three and Declassé). So I think they decided to start releasing the stuff they really liked, much of it fitting in with their quirky genre-defying vibes. As I recall there may have been a Tetris track on the second one, (that may not be correct though). I definitely remember the Tetris name and happened to not buy any. I played two tracks in this mix off the first Dub Plates comp, by Free Drinks and Citty, which were really great to hear back in 2000 on release - very unusual sounds for the time, I guess they are both from demos of unreleased artists.

PS please come on the show some time.

cool, interesting to find out a bit of background.
I've not dj'd for years, but did buy myself a pioneer digital controller recently. haven't done much with it yet though.

as an aside, I haven't made any music for a while so I sampled a bit from the gene ammons track posted above and messed about for a couple of hours in FL studio. turned into a sort of bouncy techno thing.
anyway, have a listen if you like?
