03:20 ??? (this is really pretty!)
04:34 ???
05:05 5th dimension - "age of aquarius"
05:17 kraftwerk - "tour de france" (is it just me or is this the francois k mix?)

the last one sounds like Dear Prudence

i think it's in a different key? but yeah, it does.

3:20 is Saties Gymnopedie #1 but i have no idea whos playing it. that instrument, is it a theremin?

― fez (fez), Sunday, 4 June 2006 18:04 (nineteen years ago)

3:20 is Erik Satie's Gymnopedie No. 1, though I don't know who did this synth version. (Shades of Jack Horkheimer!)

xpost I think it's just a synth.

00:16 is Ernest Saint Laurent - "Moogie" - track 1 on the Source Material comp on Astralwerks.

01:44 is Oomiaq - "L'ultime Atome" - track 3 on Source Material.

I totally know 3:20 but I'm coming up blank.

Ah that's what it was! I totally should have known Satie.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Sunday, 4 June 2006 18:09 (nineteen years ago)

sweet! thanks! i used to own "source material" but i sold it a long time ago ...

this whole thing is TOTALLY infuriating because every single track is totally familiar to me!

Isn't Hubert Laws a jazz flutist?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Sunday, 4 June 2006 23:55 (nineteen years ago)

yes

― renegade bear shot by cops on frat row (vahid), Sunday, 4 June 2006 23:57 (nineteen years ago)

Okay, just didn't expect that Satie piece to be by a him. Is it a remix?

do you know what tracks 5 and 8 are??

― renegade bear shot by cops on frat row (vahid), Monday, 5 June 2006 00:06 (nineteen years ago)

Tuomas is right - that isn't hubert laws' version of the satie, i don't know who it is. the last track is driving me crazy too, i definately have this - as well as dear prudence it's making me thing of paul weller, for some reason. i really enjoyed this though! a ten minute mix tape is a good idea. i think i'll do one of my own. good idea for a thread?

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 5 June 2006 00:26 (nineteen years ago)

seven minutes even!

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 5 June 2006 00:27 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, you're right. i thought it was the 1974 version w/ bob james on synth but listening to a longer sample, i see it's not hubert laws.

vahid, will you make me a 7 minute mix tape? i enjoyed this and i'm going to spin a thread off it. a mixtape thats around the length of the average dance track is a good idea! i'm gonna do mine within a week and then start the thread. or whoever does one first can start it. it would be cool if lots of ILXers made one, don't you think? 7 minutes maximum but no less than 6:30.

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 5 June 2006 21:54 (nineteen years ago)

cool idea but not sure what style to do it in!!

― renegade bear shot by cops on frat row (vahid), Monday, 5 June 2006 22:59 (nineteen years ago)

whatever, i can do it. maybe i'll do seven minutes of jazzy techno.

― renegade bear shot by cops on frat row (vahid), Monday, 5 June 2006 23:01 (nineteen years ago)

well i like the general feel of this one and i think mine might have a similar vibe. i think it works well in the time frame.

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 5 June 2006 23:04 (nineteen years ago)

that last one still seems insanely familiar! but i'm thinking now that it could just be because it also resembles bits of 10538 Overture.
