Radio Soulwax: Cherry Moon On Valium

vid and mix by soulwax .. Even though these Belgian records sound very "now", they are actually 20 years old and were meant to be played at a much, much faster speed. At the time this was the devil's music for us, but we have learned to listen through the claps and distorted kicks and discovered that if you slow these really dark and heavy techno records down all the way to about 115 bpm, it suddenly makes them sound less frantic,ballsier and a lot sexier.Belgium at its best when pitched down.

[@kleenandeezy]

maybe the people who like gabber actually experience the world two thirds slower than the rest of us ?

[@chris0the0hyena]

10 years late but I just had to come in and say ABSOLUTELY NOT. Can't speak for everyone of course, but the speed is great.

[@spess23]

I come back atleast a few times a year since 2012. Love this mix so much

[@TheK073]

[@rodgerm7247]

Some of it is even better when slowed down to 0,75x, ie 5:52

[@nicolasfpauly]

[@CamelianSandstorm]

I love this video so much because it's just a bunch of Belgians dancing with themselves having fun. They all look so serious and happy, no one is embarrassed. What a beautiful, fun video, I love it.

[@DNBRTV]

It's excellent isn't it ha ha :D

[@FlorentTassez]

You're so so right. But still, it's all fun to see what was found "classy" middle 90's in Northern France, today ;-)

[@muldie101]

You should see us at these party's!

[@ibnyusufalkadir612]

So happy... 👹👺👺👹👹 Le 03-08-1440👺👹👹👺👺 👿👿👿👿 👿👿👿👿

[@TheT3d3K]

You got my Belgian approval ^^

[@vanhoeck1488]

[@Halphinian]

That's really cool! Now I'm curious as to which dancer you are in the video...

[@lapetitepatate1]

[@charlottteb]

[@DominiqueVanheusden]

Innige deelneming

[@charrovanderlinden2397]

Manne 21 november 2021 bonzai party in antwerpe aan de waagnatie allemaal gaan en hakeuhhhhhhh

[@jc30081983]

I cant believe how well this video has aged

[@jordantistetube]

Every morning I get to work, open my documents and programs, and at around 10am I pull up KZbin and click Cherry Moon on Valium in "Recently Watched".

[@kerveable]

Hehe, same here :-)

[@bufotenina]

same here :P

[@s3ntry948]

İ guess i catched u this time lol

[@garyfarrington7388]

How are you all doing guys? I couldn't stop. I've lost my job, house and children, but when 10 o'clock strikes...

[@amberm5364]

Stiffs... bred.

[@hapticsynapses6992]

this is steve from haptic synapses. This is maybe one of my favorite pieces of culture ever. I wasn't in this scene, but I was in one that was like it, on another part of the world. This may have been a couple of years after I stopped actively participating. But I still love it because I get why this is so amazing. This is slowed down from what it was actually recorded at. And it sounds *great*. The bass is lower and deeper. You can appreciate the relatively funky rhythms, when that funk was harder to process when it was faster and higher. Then it's also this iconic snapshot in time of a very well curated collection of in-context songs. They're so similar in some ways, and so waaay far out in others. But they all go together beautifully. The mixing is excellently cut. Then let's talk about the artwork! And the dancers! This combination of lovingly captured album artwork and the people who appreciated the music is, very good. Very creative and fun to watch. Then you remember how fast it actually was. :D My most humble thanks for an amazing piece of art. It must have been a hell of a project, but it was so worth it.

[@garagerockermadrid]

This is the best thing I’ve heard in years. It’s literally giving me goosebumps.

[@xavierthevoid]

Look up Crookers

[@34LOLWTF]

The Soulwax radio station in GTA 5 led me to find this back in 2013. I turn it on at least a few times a year. Just let the music take you.

[@SkylineVilla]

this is how everyone should behave at a rave

[@DharmaSimone]

Nothing will ever beat the Valium version. One of the most iconic things ever made

[@NickolaiPetrovitch]

For real. Soulwax/2ManyDJs makes the best mixes in electronic

[@fpep5]

Don't forget to switch between playback speeds under KZbin's Player settings for maximum effect!

[@IHeartNoise]

+fpep5 I like 0.5 setting - especially w/that guy that looks like Phil Anselmo from Pantera

[@izaakimagery1978]

1.25 gets most at the right speed.

[@Lali88_]

Tks!

[@Mathijs303]

Well indeed, that's why it's unusual, gabber on the sound of Belgium. Cheers!

[@hijackjoe]

@@izaakimagery1978 I'm thinking 1.5. They might have changed the speeds over the last years on youtube though.

[@spess23]

I listen to this shit atleast once a month. Hope things are going ok for you mate.

[@alpaykasal2902]

So surreal slowed down like this. wow. and that slow-mo euro-white krump we never saw in the Brooklyn hardcore/gabber scene, hakken never made it here as far as I saw. just now finding this in 2022. better late than never.

[@steve808_]

this music sounds 10 time's better then all those EDM tracks nowadays...

[@S4R1N]

10/10 Would gabber again.

[@KevinbelUAPBelgium]

hell yeah

[@leelabizbee]

If only if only if only 🙂

[@CaitSmith7]

I'm working on a healthcare site while watching this.

[@sosedsverhu8623]

+Cait Smith you just mayde my day

[@plokijuh5830]

That’s how I start my shift at the morgue

[@leelabizbee]

Are you still there

[@amberm5364]

Stop breeding stiffs

[@MallardGryph]

this mix is kinda ironic when you remember that the original idea with belgium 'new beat' techno was slowing acid house records right down - before it started morphing into crazy fast gabber. shoulda just stuck with the tempo they were working at originally as it sounds fucking amazing like this

[@ganeshbhaithorat5735]

Pronvideo

[@GarththeVader]

This is how Stephen and Dave became DJ's too through their Belgian network of music and their father a famous DJ too I'd love to meet those two and tell them they are legends for bringing this to my attention! Well not just attention but my whole life!

[@DominiqueVanheusden]

It began with Belgian new wave

[@Broodkast8]

These songs are not gabber though. They're regular techno, gabber is hardcore techno, or gabberhouse. I personally prefer the original tempo.

Since the beginning with YT, this is one of its greatest videos

[@XxBL4kC47Xx]

[@gregarich]

If you turn to 1.25 or 1.5x speed it basically turns into psytrance and then hardstyle.

[@glarus26]

it's 2016 and I'm still listening to this: IS ANYBODY OUT THERE?

[@310BPM]

2017, and yes, somebody is out here.

[@user-bp2vg9yb9k]

Yep

[@yoitsgiook]

Never gets old!!!

[@ClubMicrobio]

Discover this a months ago, re-birth.

[@christalmistal316]

[@MXQtv]

Y U NOT GIVE DESCRIPTION?! Even though these Belgian records sound very "now", they are actually 20 years old and were meant to be played at a much, much faster speed.
