QUICK! What's on (but not on the turntable) RIGHT NOW? (2011 Edition)

these "Music From Saharan Cell Phones" tapes are KICKIN MY ASS, must have listened to Vol. 2 eight times at work this week.

supposedly a SahelSounds LP is in the works, I think it got linked on the Mississippi thread.

Rubber Room's one of the all-time creepiest tracks

wish this had a vinyl release

Rubber Room's one of the all-time creepiest tracks

That was the only one I knew going in, frankly amazed there were THAT many similar (from a mainstream country artist.) Some of the lyrics are like the EC Comics of country, lots of twisted revenge tales.

Post-punk for me today. Halfway through this, it's great.

wow, i've gotta get that then. i've only hear Rubber Room on the Wavy Gravy comp

anti-vinyl statement coming up: listening to some popol vuh CDs i have and to be honest i actually prefer having them on cd. i've had super-clean german pressings of popol vuh records before and any surface noise kinda drives me up a wall. and they always seem to have some pop/crackle thing going on no matter how clean they look. i actually want to start building a modest krautrock cd collection. i've got next to nothing. and some of that stuff is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo quiet and original vinyl isn't cheap so to find great copies at afordable prices could take you forever.

anyway, playing:

best of popol vuh from the films of werner herzog

tantric songs/hosianna mantra 2fer

sing, for song drives away the wolves

always had that problem with cluster vinyl on sky. get a copy that looked unplayed and still bad surface noise. someone on ilm told me this was a problem with sky vinyl in general. so, i always end up selling the stuff. but would love to have it all on cd. never had a problem with can or amon duul vinyl. don't think i have any faust vinyl.

i have original american press of the first neu album and that sounds great. have a reissue of the second album. that sounds great. vertigo and german kraftwerk sounds great. american kraftwerk pressings can be not so great.

the only popol vuh record i have with irritating surface noise is a reissue of Hosianna Mantra.. all the rest sound fine. Some of 'em are 90s reissues though.

90's reissues are probably the way to go!

i have an italian(?) copy of In Den Garten which sounds okay iirc.

Something maybe about this Minnesota winter that will seemingly never stop snowing, but bleak-ish, mopey post-punk is sounding really good to me lately.

Because I ended up not going to the Asylum Street Spankers' farewell tour last night;

Went through all my cdrs last night, prompted by the NWW list thread. Found this, listening now and very much enjoying this misanthropy. Fits my mood.

Holy shit, I don't remember this cover of the Burrito Bros. "Wheels" on this! So good.

the Television boot Tyler posted on his blog; fantastic!

hey, trip maker. can u upload that cover of wheels? one of my fave songs.

Um, I can try? But I don't want to do it from work.
I'll give it a shot from home later, if you don't mind.

Are you familiar with The Rebel/Country Teasers? Cuz you may not like this cover.

i'm not actually, but i have an open mind

I like your attitude

Not sure if it works out of context or w/e. Wallers is sort of an acquired taste.

that wasn't that crazy. i mean, the this mortal spiral cover of gene clark was a bit more weird to me.

The cover of Wheels isn't crazy, yeah. It is the second to last track on an album of more experimental home recordings and half-formed ideas.
It's familiarity is refreshing after something like "Piano Lesson," which sounds like a piano lesson, complete with damning criticism.
But it doesn't exactly sound inspired. I dunno, I enjoy B. R. Wallers but he confounds me.

notekillers notekillers notekillers. can't stop playing the new album and now i'm playing the old stuff.

Xxpost. Uh, this mortal coil obvs

i love both this mortal coil gene covers. they were my introduction to those songs. so they have a special place in my heart.

there's a shadoks reissue of that shinki chen but even that sometimes sells for stupid moneys.

Yeah, what's up with stupid priced Shadoks reissues? That shit is out of control.

http://label.todestrieb.co.uk/media/uploads/2010/04/hawkwind-doremi-fasol-latido.jpg

didn't Fusetron just list a new Phoenix issue of the Shinki Chen ? why yes, i think they did...

Artist: CHEN, SHINKI
Title: Shinki Chen & Friends
Format: LP
Label: Phoenix
Country: USA
Price: $23.00

"Gatefold LP version. Shinki Chen was one of the leading figures of the Japanese psychedelic rock scene in the early 70s, seen as a Jimi Hendrix-type figure in Japan at the time. This record, released in 1971 was some of his last recorded material (he also recorded with the band Powerhouse and Foodbrain) in addition to the different band line-up known as Speed, Glue & Shinki and their debut Eve released the same year. While the bands style is often compared to its Krautrock cousins, it lacks the dreamy directionlessness that a lot of them have as well as the bore factor of the lighter-weight progressive rock acts. Shinki Chen & Friends might lack Joey Smiths amphetamine-fuelled drumming, but it is generally bluesier with lots of strange keyboard effects, fuzzy bass lines and a relatively weeping guitar sound. Digitally remastered on 180 gram vinyl." - Phoenix

Cool!
I can't buy any new records right now, though. Gotta pay that rent.

ban phoenix!

Oh are they bootleggers? I don't think I own any Phoenix records.

feeling so indie today.
I couldn't ever get into this band just cuz I couldn't ever find their records! unrest, I mean.

and Bill Fay, The Definitive Downliners Sect: Singles As and Bs, Robert Wyatt and Randy Vanwarmer the best of the Bearsville years.

bearsville, what a good yet weird label.

agreed

Listening to Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band.
Wistful Wednesday

Listening to "Blue" Gene Tyranny: Country Boy Country Dog(How to Discover Music in the Sounds of Your Daily Life) on the DRAM database at Webster University. This is great!

Moved on to League of Automatic Music Composers 1978-1983 on New World Records.
May not hang with this one too long.

Moved on to Eliane Radigue: Kyema, Intermediate States. This is more like it.

nice batch, dude!

Listening to Toy Love on Spotify. I hope Chris Knox is doing okay.

np: new Cass McCombs

from the DRAM database
http://media.dramonline.org/media/566122.jpg

I like that new Cass McCombs, btw.

i kinda like it. actually i liked it on my computer. then i d/l-ed a hi-res FLAC version to listen to on my stereo and then i didn't like it.

That's funny. I'd like to hear the lp.

Man this Radigue is DEEEP. I think I just heard some brass echoing beneath this bass throb.

Woah wait I think this is solo synth lol

the same thing happened w/ Wits End btw. too precious or something. i don't know.

do you like cass mccombs's A or NOT THE WAY, nerve_p? imo they are great

i have not, but now i will, thx!

there's something like completely undifferentiated and organic and narcotic/hypnotic about all the songs on those records that feels perfect.
