No I take that back - Science, Art and Ritual by Bedouin
Ascent is the first thing you should buy RIGHT NOW. Listen
to it today and pretend the whole of the last ten years
never happened to you...!

Shit, my guitar/indie/pop check-it-out list is getting
long.

Curiously, my electronic list is blank.

'yoshimi battles the pink robots' is my favourite non-idm
album now. the album as a whole as well as particular songs
are amazing.
i'll drop you a line on slsk if you want

Ah but this Bedouin Ascent is drum n bass - techno or
sumthin yes?

idm seems to be trapped in its own attempt to be
'different', though it might be a bit early to say that

I've been thinking that for a while... someone like Snares
or Enduser comes along with a technical innovation or a new
sound and it's almost passe before the disk ships.

Maybe it's time to give it a rest and listen to something
else until something genuinely fresh happens... I say that
for artists as well as listeners.

it's working for me, but they changed clients, have a look
if the error msg says that it's down or if you only need an
upgrade

You can't really go wrong with either band, most of their
albums are very good. You'll descend into airplane
glue-sniffing madness the further you go into the back
catalogue.

Personal favorites: The Soft Bulletin, Deserter's Songs.

flaming lips: the soft bulletin (their best album, by far),
zaireeka (if you can find stereo mixes online),
transmissions from the satellite heart

two weeks ago i listened to the full zaireeka thingy in four
stereos - it was amazing

i'd say that 'yoshimi..' is their best one, but i see that i
have to give the soft bulletin another chance

btw, my avatar is seasonal only in spring :)

see, i heard soft bulletin first... that was the first one i
bought of theirs, so when i hear yoshimi i feel like "yeah,
i heard this already" which is the only one i feel like that
about. all the rest i feel are pretty different form one
another.

Hey, so there are Zaireeka stereo mixes? Is there some way
to identify them like a keyword? If I had to do the mixdown
myself I think I'd just buy the CDs instead of working from
MP3 sources...

Cheffe - how'd the four stereos get synchronized? Or is it
the kind of music that allows for some leeway in sync?

there is a pretty good mixdown flying around on slsk, just
do a search on zaireeka. in fact it's pretty hard to find
the unmixed album. everything is on 192k

i burnt the 4 cds and made the players pause at 0:00. after
a countdown we hit play simultanously. unfortunately
different players seem to have a slightly varying speed so
we had to fix this a couple of times. 'twas in a room with
the 4 stereos in every corner and we got pretty scared when
in one track the scream of a girl seemed to be floating
around in the room. besides that i didnt dig the music too
much, but it was cool trying it out
