Future Vintage on YouTube

 

Anybody still here? I know you are...

After almost a decade the Future Vintage comeback lies still safely in the near future, but there seems to be a way to share some of the rare material from this blog and my archives. Because the YT copyright policy applies rather selectively I decided to upload at least a fraction of  music that made the cut to a new Future Vintage channel. 

I will start with The remix according to... series in chronological order and later dig deepeer to some of the request I've been getting over time.

 I know it lacks the comfort of grabbing whole albums off some cloud service, but there's a ton of software to rip music off YT available and the sound quality matches Future Vintage 320kbps standard.

The Remix According To Ashley Beedle Volume Three (2014 Future Vintage Vaults)

Both previous volumes of remixes by Ashley Beedle were huge success, measured by the number of downloads. Volume Three will not be so lucky though. Not that the material collected is any worse than Volumes One and Two. These 22 tracks include all genres exploited by Mr. Beedle, from old school electro to trippy jazz, from funky house to electronic dub. No, it's just because the number of current Future Vintage members is so shamefully low and it don't seem to be growing anytime soon. Enjoy!

102 Cassio-Baby Love (Black Science Orchestra Mix Edit)

The Future Vintage era is about to end in a week or so. All the money collected is gone and I'm 2 euros short to pay for another month of my RS account which will expire at the end of the month. Still I couldn't resist to throw in one more fine FVV compilation to go. What does it mean? I simply cannot rule out the possible Future Vintage comeback, perhaps in a different, more open way, so keep me in your blogroll  and check back frequently. Stay tuned!

Farewell to the Year of the Dog

So here I am, sitting here on this last night of the Year 13, waiting for my friends to show up, ready to hit the streets of the Old Town and have some serious fun. It's a New Year somewhere in Asia already so it seems that I have a minute or two to write some stuff out of my hair in this last post of this Year of the Dog.

I had to put my bull terrier lady to sleep two weeks ago. I'm a big bloke proud of certain emotional stability. I'm currently recovering from the worst year of my life, both personally and professionally. I've lost my best friend to cancer, and another friend hung himself for reasons known but to him. I've lost all my clients and almost wound up homeless. Still I wonder how deeply the death of a mere dog struck me.

She was a lousy dog and a great bull terrier. However confusing it may sound, those familiar with this breed know what I mean. She'd had a great life, and though she couldn't continue with her conquest of the world when a tumor on her paw effectively tied her to her chair, she'd spent the last year doing the two next best things: lying in my bed and eating all kinds of forbidden stuff she'd never dreamt of before.

I have no trouble rationalizing the whole situation. I know the time was right and to put an end to it was the best I could have done before things started to get really messy for her. But I still feel a need to justify myself  - to nobody else but myself. And though I know that the 30 kilograms of void beside me will eventually shrink and disappear, and soon I will be able to look in the corner where her chair used to stand without that pain in my chest, I will always miss her deep inside of me. But the dogs who were truly loved will never be forgotten anyway. Rest in peace, Kočička.

Also I seem to have lost my blog for good. Not that I'm not willing to go on with my smart remarks on times and music of my youth. It's just that sad fact that of all those thousands former Future Vintage blog readers not more than a handful have confided in me enough to jump on my new scheme, and when I say handful, I really mean it - if I invited all the new Future Vintage members in my place, we'd be all sitting comfortably. I have to admit that it was the bitterest pill of all I had to swallow this year. Perhaps I will be able to get back in the saddle and carry on. If not, I will find a way to pay back all of those who put trust and money in this blog. You know who you are and I thank you very much for keeping the faith.

Let me cut this somewhat longish post off in an unusual way. My readers know my passion for Jay Alanski and his project A Reminiscent Drive. To my greatest joy, Side Effects, my bootleg compilation of ARD rare tracks, has been one of the most downloaded titles from the Future Vintage Vaults series. If you share my passion for his works, you ought to head straight to your favourite music dealer and buy the freshly released Zoom Back Camera compilation of his works from the Mercy Street era. This double disc jewel was released on Peacelounge label as a sequel to their recent reissues of both ARD albums and when I say that these guys did a hell of a job here, it's not because they have quoted from my post twice in their Mercy Street reissue press release ;).

Gotta go. If you are a Future Vintage member, enjoy the two FVV compilations below. If not, have a great 2014 anyway.

Stay tuned!
