I was just following the Silvetti thread rather than the x-over thread and for that I will stand in the corner and make myself listen to an hour's worth of 6ts RnB as punishment!

Russ Vickers Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 My personal definition of crossover is this: Usually between 68-78 ish & was the sounds that were in the transitional period between the raw 6ts sound recorded on 4 track in a shed, to the more sophisticated disco sound using up to the minuit technology, the term crossover first appeared in the context that we use it towards the end of Stafford, I think, & my opinion is that it was a get out of jail free card for 6ts only DJ's who had burned their bridges by shunning more modern sounds & the modern DJ;s who had shunned the 6ts sounds, they could play sounds from either camp, that didn't quite fit into either camp with out losing face by pidgeon holing the genre as 'crossover' PHEWWWWWWWWWWW what a load of bollocks, but thats my theory any way, crossover being my fave sound.

Guest Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Not wishing or meaning to be rude blunt whatever but why should your version of "What Crossover Means" be the definitive version Brett? I probably phrased that all wrong but it got your attention though eh What i'm trying to get at is that crossover means many things to many people and there really isn't in my opinion (and that's the point it is just my opinion ) any definitive crossover sound because it changes and evolves all the time, yes it does maintain a vibe but IMVFHO it really doesn't do to try and pigeon hole these things too much just to satisfy a need to endlessly catergorise and compartmentalise. What about the records that crossover from the modern scene to the Northern scene but don't fit this neat little '69 - '73 timeslot that has been allocated? It's a minefield John link its a minefield madder than mad jack mcmadds mad minefield indeed. however, it's worth reading 'voices' (no 15 or 16) and that gives as good an explanation to what 'crossover' was all about. can't remember who wrote the article but well worth tracking it down. IMO all this trying to shove a square peg into the xover misses the point really one crossover record simple really, 'Ella Woods - I need your love' chers Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I have just read that back & even I think that it sounds like a load of waffle, but hopefully you get the point. waddoya think John ??? link I take your point about them being contempory releases but the same could be said about Charles Johnson and King Tutt and a host of others that were played as new releases back in the day. For me nowadays it's more about the vibe of the record than when it was made. The reason for this is simple these sort of records do not get an airing in today's Modern Soul scene. Modern Soul 2004 is comprised predominantly from current upfront material with a smattering of retro steppers and obscure album tracks laced with a hint of soulful dance. The whole retro sounding records simply fall on deaf ears at the majority of these events, in fact a dear friend and prominant Modern DJ laughed out loud and took the piss for an age when someone suggested to him that SZ was a modern record (and he had a point ) The Crossover scene (as small as it is regionally) is the only place that these sort of records get an airing, the fact that they are new is irrelevant IMO, they sound right and are therefore accepted and played. Here are a couple of others that i would put into the same category Rhianna, New Master Sounds ft Corrine Bailey, Artie Bluesboy White, Git Shorty to name just a few. None of them Modern Soul as such, not in the current sense at least but all have that crossover vibe, groove call it what you will. At the end of the day it's all subjective and it really doesn't matter what you call it so long as it's good John Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Johnny One Trout Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Probably wouldn't go that far Adam but you have a point to a degree. Generally i find that most Modern Soul afficianados have some roots in Northern and most still like it but when they are out they want to hear current material prefering to buy new records in volume rather than old and in their opinions over priced records that they remember as £3 new releases. Obviously that is a massive generalisation but that attitude is a common one and not without it's merits, if only from a common sense perspective (buy cheap now sell dear later) Looking forward to Friday mate it looks like it's gonna be a cracker see you at the bar John Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Petebangor Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Spot on John I have a theory on the attitude of a few Contemporary soul fans .Most of the folks who whether serious or not beliitle Northern,crossover,attitudes(We can slag them off but keep reading) didnt come into the scene like a majority from Northern backgrounds.Some started with Chart Disco,English soul,Jazz funk ala Animal nightlife ,loose ends stuff like that.So they dont get the meaning of "modern "in the sense of new sounds played on the Northern scene, to people who had little or no contact with chart stuff or what radio 1 peebles used to play.Its a bit of a twisted theory I know but I do get a little peeved still when they slag of stuff I was dancing to when they were listening to ABC.Do I make sense or am I talking broken biscuits? will discuss over JD on friday? Adam link I find that the majority of people into Modern from the North West/Midlands came through the Northern thing and branched off into Modern in the late 70's early 80's wereas the majority of Southern people into Modern,were pretty much unaware of the Northern scene,and did the Caister,Chris King,Froggy thing.

Guest Jamie Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I've got most of those above Johnners, and it's interesting to see how you 'score' them. Channel 3 (One of my personal faves) I would have thought you would have classed as 70's Northern? Does this still get plays? I know I play it, but I play it because I love it. I'm not really keen on what 'Modern' is. I'm non-plussed on the new releases as a whole, but do enjoy some. I suppose my limit stops at Early/Mid 80's (Cheryl Berdell, Charles Mann etc) with only very few after that catching my ear. It is interesting to look at one of the first 'Goldmine' CD's 'Modern' soul, and to look at the playlist (Daybreak, Charles Johnson, Al Mason et al) and compare what the term 'Modern' means now. And that is only in the space of about 10 years! Confused? I'm off for a pint Jamie Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Myself and my bro David have the pleasure and privalige of being able to play 9.00 till 10.30, and we will be mixing it up nicely within the parametres of 60's / 70's / 80's Crossover. Some things like Stan Martin, Frankie Zhivago, Tolbert, Dolly Gilmore, Nobodies Children, Clay Brown, Sweet Mixture, Mixed Emotions, Cania, Pulse.....etc, etc will be played, let alone what Bob Cosby will throw in the pot. Should be reasonably good I would think. Jordi Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
