Chris Micali appreciation Thread

[Chatterbot]

...just listened to his "Electrofly"-CD when driving to work.

This is the kind of sound that can easily bring a tear to your eyes and
makes your hair stand up.

I love how he manages to have really straight forward pumping beats
combined with wonderful meldodies.

Everybody is honoring Sasha?s Involver, but nobody seems to
recognize that Chris? CDs are all made by himself, too.
Only his 150%-productions, either tunes or remixes.
Each CD of him is one thousand times better than "Involver".

His "Live@SF-Sessions"-CD is a real masterpiece as well.


Bring it on, dude!

Blueprint!
Blueprint!
Blueprint!

Well you're actually misinformed on this one. His Electrofly set on Proton is actually the same as his Oslo Nights set from February as well as his Spring Mix that is (still) available on his site and these all open with: Darkarma - Focal Point Blur (Original Mix) which is not his original production. He does do the remix but Darkarma is actually a guy by the name of Patrick Campbell from Florida. Nevertheless it is a great mix.

Re: Chris Micali appreciation Thread

Micali is gonna go far!

[Localizer]

his beats and sounds are continually the same.....no variation.....imo, his productions aren't as quality as what they were before.

I agree dude but for those of you into his style try out his new release:
chris_micali-so_easy_and_your_life_better-promo-vinyl-2004
It's damn good

[kanejuan]

Even more respect to the guy when you realize that he still has a day job at a software company! Wow!

Anyway, interesting info taken from his website:
"I have received a number of emails about the following tracks and/or mixes..

Chris Micali - Resentment
Chris Micali & Somnus Corp - Bomba Baby

I haven't heard these, but I have no idea what these are or who decided to make them. Don't believe everything you see on soulseek!"

Heh....who mixed the "Resentment" set then???

Chris Micali & Somnus Corp - Bomba Baby

Interesting. Gabriel from Somnus Corp said the same thing:
