your boyfriend from high school??!??!?!?!
xpost to ddb

today listening:
pissed jeans
trojan dub box
poison idea

Impossible, I never had a boyfriend in high school.

Ian, Jon says I shd ask you abt Sun City Girls -- do you recommend Torch of the Mystics?

IM NO IAN BUT TORCH OF THE MYSTICS RULEZ

SO DOES 333,003 XDRESSERS FROM BEYOND...

i got yr crazy rhythms....

http://www.igetrvng.com/shop_mx4.html

I sold 33303030203034 cross dressers for 3030302023030 $$$$$$$$

I am listening to Abwarts, Metabolist, Monitor and Asmus Tietchens mp3s. Also Magazine and the first 3 or so songs on the Mick Ronson lp above. Only After Dark was one of those "wait, I know this song" moments....till I realized the Human League covered it. Killer. My new schtick is the obsession with this album and Iggy Pop's solo stuff as David Bowie records with less Bowie and more Rock.

How Soon is Now by Quicksand just came up on shuffle....AWESOME

mp3s off blogs
Scott Walker "Clara" (I don't get it)
Christopher & Raphael Just f/Fox and Wolf "Popper"
T.I. "Get It"
Chromatics "Glass Slipper"

Luomo The Present Lover (the lyrics are terrible and it sounds like shopping at Benetton)

The Present Lover is AWESOME

it's just like having sex at benetton

benetton thinks of everything

LAUREL: I do recommend torch of the mystics. it's great. download it. but i don't know if you'll like it, really.. i figured you for more of a sleek pop girl. what's sparked yer interseted in SCG? I love that band, though. That's probably a better one to start with than a lot of the others, though. It is considered to be (one of) the classic(s).

on a similar note, who wants to tape me the Jack's Creek LP?

Ian, you dear, I am a pop girl. I will try SCG again on a slow day when I am feeling chiller than I was yesterday.

Today is brought to you by the bands Shellshag and TJSA, the latter for Lauren.

I'll sell you Jack's Creek. Is it worth a lot?

I'm gonna see Cat Power tonight.

enjoy!

in a silent way box (NOT AS GOOD AS THE JACK JOHNSON BOX OR THE CELLAR DOOR BOX)

I'm trying something lalbelled "Shelley/Devoto: Buzzkunst" but it's too repetitive & unmelodic for me, I think.

new brightblack morning light advance. kinda better than i expected.

did the american, in the article, or, perhaps the one in NC, speak with a bolton accent, or was it kind of mackem

oh, its here, how strange. that post, doesnt belong there. it belongs elsewhere.

perhaps a mod could delete it, or maybe leave it there.

Laurel you should be listening to Magazine's the Correct Use of Soap instead

I will...make a note. Have never heard of! Why don't more people on my office itunes share have music I actuallY WANT TO LISTEN TO???

"Shelley/Devoto: Buzzkunst" was the first collaboration between Pete Shelley and Howard Devoto since Devoto left the Buzzcocks and formed Magazine. Magazine's 3rd record, the Correct Use of Soap, is one of the best new wave/post-punk/whatever albums of the early 80s. Catchy as hell.

I'm game!

love me some pete shelly homo sapien too

just ripped the choral performances from the soundtrack of this:

V.U. "white light/white heat" which made me uptight & gave me a headache on the drive in, but is still great, esp mo tucker's clockwork machine drumming on "sister ray". Also, "could it be the poh-liice"

Steve Hackett 1st 2 solo albums "Voyage of the Acolyte" & "Please Don't Touch". Lotsa good bits, but a bit eh overall. Probably a mega hit if yer mellotron fetishism is such that yer willing to overlook the odd bit of musical weakness. Makes you wish he'd stuck w/genesis, though.

T.Dream "Ricochet"

does music heard in movies count? if so, 'saturday night fever' ost.

ground zero consume red
otomo yoshihides new jazz ensemble hanen fukei

Jesu, "Silver EP". Damn.
Underworld, "Dark and Long" (the pseudo-album with "Thing In a Book" and "Spoon Deep", among other epic tracks. Their best "album".)

that ground zero record I can hear about once a year, but when I am listening, it is the greatest album ever recorded

i just got my hands on it. listened to it 1st time on a slightly stoned walk home on wed night...walking though w.berg at 1 am, it was pretty much the best thing ever...listened agian last night and had a hard time focusing on what i was doing...today its less intrusive. i can see where yr coming from though, dominique

Obsessing over Sly Stone due to new RIOT book we got at Library.

This is the CD I have:

These tracks were spread over a few of the 487392 versions of the "Dark and Long" single. Sometimes they're listed as remixes of D&L, but they're not.

Herman's Hermits - Greatest Hits Vol. 3

So good that they needed three Greatest Hits LPs.

Meltzer, from an early piece called "English Heavies":

"With all this interest in the Hollies nowadays (Graham Nash's fault), it might as well be brought out in the open what the Hollies had going for them: five or six pretty little nuggets over the years. Herman's songs were prettier, more nugget-like, and there were at least ten or fifteen of them that amounted to more than a hill of beans. And once (on a Leonard Bernstein reevaluate rock and roll TV special) Herman and Graham himself suggested that Donovan could save the world. So distinctions need not apply, but if you want 'em take Herman of course."

i only ever post things that i actually buy. i download so much shit (that i usually only listen to once) that it's retarded for me to even type it all out. i hate me for downloading so much. make it stop ;_;

we was listening to la monte young today at work.

Anyone ever heard this?

http://www.sundazed.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/Afterglow.gif

From Oregon, I guess. Kind of like a more frat-rock version of the Association or something, but every one of their songs was good! And the songs are SUPER SHORT. Here are the time lengths of the tracks:

1. 2:02
2. 2:30
3. 2:27
4. 2:34
5. 1:57
6. 1:47
7. 1:53
8. 2:25
9. 2:59
10. 2:31
11. 2:22

Every song but one around 2:30 or shorter, three of them under two minutes.

Chris Smither - Don't It Drag On
Ulver - Blood Inside
Jolie Holland - Springtime Can Kill You
The Presets - Beams
This Mortal Coil - Blood
The The - Dusk
Also, still listening to Klaatu-3:57 EST on a daily basis. For fucks sake.

That screenname should really belong to Joseph McCombs.

i've hear the afterglow record, tim. good fun. but thats about as far as it goes with me.

-- electro-acoustic lycanthrope (dr.carl.saga...), May 31st, 2006.

at first i didn't like it as much as "psychedelic sounds..." but its grown on me more.

Ward, you have a nice job.
Stellar Regions was one of the first 'trane discs I was given back in High School (along with Favorite Things and Giant Steps)! Absolutely confusing at the time but I've since reconciled... not something I come back to often though.

Yesterday:

Tom Ze - Estudando o Pagode ... poss. album of the year stuff
TI - King... still and for awhile, I think
Sugarman Three - Sugar's Boogaloo ... nice enough Daptone
Electropolis - S/T ... good, loose electronic jazz project
Nellie McKay - Pretty Little Head ... prepping for the show, it's still uneven and still really wonderful in places
