finally got around to downloading something this month. can't believe it took me this long. anyway, i just downloaded Dead C's Harsh 70s Reality again. definitely have deleted it from the hard drive more than twice. sometimes i'm just in the mood, y'know. then i'm not and i delete it. i know physically owned it at one point, too.

Regret (Fire Island Mix)" - New Order (Dated-but-fun piano-house revamp)

oh! i love that. actually, i heard it before i heard the original - radio one were playing it a lot, for some reason - and had a big fight with my mate norm over whether or not "there was any bass or guitar on the new new order record". happy dayz.

my downloads this month? but one: the new kylie single.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 1 December 2004 22:59 (twenty years ago)

everything mentioned on that new thread about indie things. already i note that the magic numbers are staggeringly overrated.

Lots of Curb Your Enthusiasms, which eventually used up all my hard disk and ate my computer, plus In A Silent Way and currently, whatever slim pickings from Marcello's list have crawled into Acquisition.

Yeah, that Fire Island mix is awesome, which is I why I grabbed it.
I remember thinking "This is how a house mix of a pop song should sound, kinda happy-sad" when it came out. I was really disappointed by the New Order remix disc that arrived a few years later.
