i never ever ever hear anybody talk about these guys around here. is there a reason for that? i'm not terribly familiar with them, but i'd like to be. only heard bits and pieces here and there over the years, but i really enjoy what i heard.
and yeah, it's late and i should be in bed but i'm bored and i can't sleep and i have nothing to do and i'm awake and i'm here and it's cold in my basement and my fingers and getting numb and that sucks. *sigh*

the two lone swordsmen are made up of Andy Weatherall and Keith Tenniswood and the pair used to be called the sabres of paradise i think, solo stuff from these guys plus sabres of paradise stuff is always worth checking out, keith tenniswood records under the name of radioactive man and i have his two albums which are good. tiny reminders by tls is an excellent album but also check out the e.p, a bag of blue sparks, very very good but sometimes quite hard to get hold of, they have a record labels too called r.g.c (rotters golf club) and release a fair bit of electro thru this, hope this helps

Further Reminders was a compilation of remix's of stuff from Tiny Reminders, however, it would be a wise move to stear clear of this release at all costs imo

I saw TLS at the first dedbeat, they did a 5hr live/dj set! What i saw was very good indeed, but i didnt last 'til the end, they came on about 1am!
I've also seen Radioactive Man live, he is fucking superb, go see him if at all possible! Both Wetherall & Tenniswood are very good djs too.
I've got their first album, i forget the name, its a double album, its not on warp. Pretty good though. Tiny Reminders is great though.

My choices to check out would be Stay Down and Tiny Reminders. They both are quite different from each other. Stay Down is more melodic IDM while Tiny Reminders is full of glitchy techno. Further Reminders (the remix of Tiny Reminders) IS pretty disappointing.
I love the other incaration Sabres of Paradise Haunted Dancehall which gets played all the time.
Try a hot chocolate or a camomile tea for insomnia.

Maybe the most ignored brains in electro, (of course the glory's going to the bands courting pop success) nonetheless capable of superb avant, dub - inflected downtempo.
Andrew Weatherall produced every cut on Screamadelica EXCEPT Higher Than The Sun (which they handed over to The Orb!)
Fine company if you ask me...

Virus with Shoes is excellent but I didnt recommend it for someone new to 2LS as its quite weird.

leftfield have a swords remix 12" with a wicked two lone swordsman remix. from a few years back, infact all the mixes are good, but the TLS one is very cool.
