This is the archive of gabba.cc, one of the first mp3 blogs.
1663 tracks, 6 years, 10 months, 11 days, and as you've probably noticed the sites been very quiet of late, so here's my final post.

When we started "Winamp Says" back in 2002 there wasn't much out there like it, the idea of so fragrantly abusing copywrite in the aim of telling people about the music we where finding wasn't as pervasive as it is now. Opening the site up for everyone to post proved intermittently successful, but it never really formed into the hub i wanted it to, maybe it was lack of direction, or maybe its just the number of music sites out there. Either way at the moment I can't commit the time to it it deserves, so for now the site will remain here as a static archive until I have reason and time to re-launch it in a some kind of new form in the future..

Greetings, long time since I've checked out the gabba, its been very quiet but still some good stuff here. In honor of the recently released 8! volume "Masters of the universe 2" I thought I'd upload a track from it. Apparently this one guy is from my hometown Oslo too so props to him for that :)

done by keith chinner, underground artist in houston, tx.  

i created this track, beat, bassline, vocoded chord to bassline, 32 track inc. effects to track, bd, bassline, delay, choir wave automation, vinyl sample, high pass filter, and created under the influence of paranoid schizophrenia where i thought limadly was joanna newsom and i was being filmed everywhere by michael mann.  made it in the likes of lee burridge, lb1
this is on my label, frequency llcits not for sale at the moment

As we soon leave the sinking ship of 2007, here's to hoping Gabba is not, and that it still has a lot of great music to bring us in 2008. Also, I am sure that it will always be a whole lot 'cooler than thou' :)

This is from the wonderful Fun While It Lasted part 2 compilation, where you will find many other twee indie pop gems.



found it on a facebook group. think it was on some french/belgian blogs last year. the original appears to have been released between 73-77. sounds like a pilooski edit. apart from that i know nothing. sorry that's not very descriptive..

Ninamartine with Zingone. Norwegian/French electro.

1970's nigerian rock; great organ, nicely repetitive vocals, dancey rhythm...7-8 minutes long....



Norwegian synthpop from 2006.  and i mean Norwegian synthpop in the best possible sense of the words.

Skepticism is overruled on this jumpin' 'n' pumpin' remix.  If the house piano and the James Brown sample weren't enough, you'll be doing yourself a great favor by making it to the 3:00 mark when the song crossed over the event horizon and is pulled apart on the atomic level... and then re-assembled on the other side.

Psychedelic / Trance / Soul from UK. a little slow but i love it! don't you?

A fix of pure POP that I suspect has pushed me into a period of dependency that will inevitably end in an OD and a rehab backlash. Still, right now my eyes are rolling in my skull.. mmmnnnnugh....

Lots of reverb. An asymmetrical dubstep sort of rhythm. Loud and dark.
