CHARITY SHOP CLASSICS (55)

Two from the letter R. Rudeness from Romanthony and oddness from Rairbirds. With remixes by Photek and Futureshock.

From 2001, Rairbirds are “Excellent new signing and production from Photek. Two tracks. Super cool chunky tech-tribal mashup with vocal effects and more beats orientated action on the flip… Do not miss.”

Don’t really know much about Romanthony, apart from his work with Daft Punk. But Wiki tells us: Romanthony (born Anthony Wayne Moore) is an American disc jockey, producer, and singer. He is best known for his work with French duo Daft Punk (he provided the vocals for ‘”One More Time” and “Too Long” on their Discovery album). His stage name comes from his first name, Anthony, combined with his favorite book of the Bible, Romans.[citation needed]

Romanthony’s work crosses several genres including house, R&B and Hip hop. Tracks like “Hold On” make extensive use of sampling with a distinctly soulful house feel, while the later “Bring U Up” utilises a James Brown style breakbeat.

Futureshock give Romanthony a tech house mix.
