This Month's playlist (albums only!)

Ils-Soul Trader, Shakedown-You Think You Know, Tom Middleton-Sound of the Cosmos.

* "avalon" - roxy music (listening to "more than this" obsessively since I heard it in a supermarket)
* "pure pop for now people" - nick lowe (i love the sound of "i love the sound of breaking glass", over n over)
* "punk and disorderly" - v.a. (blitz - "someone's gonna die tonight oi oi oi")
* "electro" cd-r that my little brother made for me ("White Horse" by laid back, hell yeah)
* "hey frenchy" cd-r that Arthur made for me (if my kitchen was a movie, this would be its soundtrack album)
* "thoughts" - margo guryan (forgive the lame-o title)
* "an illustrated history" - puffy amiyumi (ditto)
* "Love Love No. 1" & "Love Love No. 2" GS mixed tapes - v.a.

Jess- I have heard three tracks from this particrlar compilation and I really enjoy it. I really love the incredible sounds he gets out of his machines. But I can't comment in detail as i only gave one listen. but I'm planning to listen to him lots when I'm on holiday from next friday.

I only have 'persepolis' and 'legend d'er'. Only his electronic stuff so far then but I'll get round to his orchestral stuff too. I think they have a sale on tower so I'll see what's on the xenakis section when i go rec shopping next week.

so to ans yr question: lots of listening to do...

julio: there are a few threads devoted to the big x, i think, but i can't remember if i actually posted to any of them. i think he's usually great, if a bit tiring in full. i have the three you do, as well as a vinyl lp i found in my local thrift store (!!) for a buck, which i've never been able to listen to as i don't have a working turntable. (that and the fact that it's now in parents attic.) "bohor" is probably my favorite piece on electronic music. runner up: "concrete ph" (is that on there?)

• Low - Trust
  
• Sleater-Kinney - One Beat
  
• Neko Case - Black Listed
  
• New Order - Power, Corruption, & Lies
  
• Lifter Puller - Fiestas & Fiascos
  
• Nightingales - What a Scream
  
• Ladytron - Light & Magic
  
• Dot Allison - We Are Science
  
• Zombies - Zombie Heaven (COME! ON! TIME!)

Er, I'm listening to Low Birth Weight right now, I guess. But I haven't listened to any album more than once in the past couple of months, maybe more. That Tater Totz one I picked up used the other day is an amusement, though.

it is. I'll post something on the xenakis on a thread on him someday.
