coldest: something by thomas koner perhaps? permafrost?

hottest: surely some american jazz of the 20s or 30s? that, or ayler.

Coldest: Kraftwerk - "Radioactivity",Joy Division - "Atmosphere".I realise those are somewhat expected examples,but they sound icy and wintry,it's not because they imply austerity.Also Eno when working with Harold Budd or dedicating songs to him,and parts of Kid A.Hottest: Flying Saucer Attack - the guitars sound like burning,to paraphrase Ralph Wiggum.

Cold: John Cale
Hot: James Brown.

When both clash in my stereo, my body falls apart. This happens so rarely. Slayer "reign in blood" occasionally rips off my head, chews on it and then sticks it back on.

"Pen Expers" is really warm in parts.

Hottest: Ike & Tina-lots of stuff, Chachakas-"Jungle Fever", Crazy World of Arthur Brown-"Fire" (duh) Coldest: Queen-"Flash Gordon", ELO-"Don't Bring Me Down" Most in between: "Exakt Neutral" by Stereo Total.

Pretty cold = Microphones circa It Was Hot...

Pretty hot = Ween circa Chocolate and Cheese.

Actually, I take that back. Microphones are about as cold as a big empty apartment, in winter, with the radiators broken and one too many windows left cracked open. The Ween stuff I'm thinking of is just sort of pleasantly, tropically warm, but not burning-hot.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club (gig a few hours ago)= the warmth of a retro fake fur jacket.
