Ha, no, Contenderizer, yours don't seem to go that far back. It was mostly just that I saw "Counterphase" and that seemed like it would totally be a Peng!-era track. (I'm not certain it wasn't.)

nabisco, Wednesday, 13 August 2008 23:43 (seventeen years ago)

contenderizer's are very "dots and loops" (opinions4u: the best stereolab era)

d&l is sounding fantastic tonight. i thought it would sound dated because lol 1996 post-rock but it seriously sounds fresher than ever. those drums are so wicked. gonna put on 'fluorescences' next.

strgn, Thursday, 14 August 2008 04:36 (seventeen years ago)

D&L is as superb now as it was 10 years ago. Proto-nu-lab.

I miss the electronic current in that album, and longer works like Refeactions, which is spellbinding.

Read recently that Ernst Bloch, who was altogether more cheery than Adorno, accused Teddy, whose Mandarin contempt for pop culture, and taste for the high life, sat oddly with his Marxism of residing in 'The Grand Hotel Abyss' - which would be a great 'lab title
