Has anyone got it yet? If so, could you me a favour?

There's a review section called Outer Limits or something,
yes?

I'll be getting it next time I find a shop that sells it.
Which isn't very often. I hate this part of the country.

And I didn't really understand Anus' post. :S

Ohhhhh, there we go. Yes, please, if you could possibly tell

I really should. If the label cds are as good as the wire
tapper series, i'm sold.

Well forr a starrt, and I bet this is what he means...
therre is a picturre of Aphex Twin frrom an old issue with a
tight on his head because he is at the Oslo Jazz Festival
durring a special Rephlex night.

They arre not to be fairr. The past 3 orr 4 Wire Tapper CDs
have been fan bloody tastic. Much betterr than Tapper 1 and
the olderr Tappers. But the CDs arre often tasterrs frrom
festivals and labels and so grreat all the same.

I dunno. Just seemed like an odd thing for someone to insist
that I go and buy a copy of the magazine about.

I've only been buying for maybe 9 months or so, but wire
tappers 10 and 11 were just ridiculously good. When i have
some spare cash i'll definitely invest in a subscription.
The wire is my lifeline to information on good music.

Not especially. I like him, but no more than your average
electronic/IDM type fan. Unless it was FSOL, I doubt anyone
would point out a picture of an artist to me.

10 and 11 = The best Tapperrs so farr. Although 9 was
fucking grreat also.

You were talking about Out There, not Outer Limits. ;)
My album is reviewed in the Outer Limits section...

Second Thought: Purlieu (Second Thought; CD)
'Taking its title from the term for a stretch of land
bordering the edge of a royal forest, Ross Baker's latest
release shows the same conceptual boldness as his
[i]Rooftops[/i] project in which he recorded six different
version of his favourite song. A 16 page booklet, containing
overcast rural images of hedgerows and churches plus an
existentially displaced first person narrative, accompanies
this cycle of wistful instrumental sketches. Evoking the
moist contours of a desolate nonexistent terrain,
[i]Purlieu[/i] does a thorough job of pacing out its
boundaries and limitations. Birds sing, thunder rumbles and
Baker's keyboards chime pleasantly in the distance,
recalling memories of a time when all of this was just
fields."

so...your friend told you "you have to read it" because it
was review of your cd?

Wicked man, you got a review in the wire? I'd kill my
grandma for that.

Also, noise fans should definitely get this issue for "The
Primer" section.

Aye, I'm so happy. Online reviews and little zines are
great, but getting a review in something like The Wire is
just... well, I really didn't think I had much chance at all
of even getting a mention. :)

And the noise article is very interesting. Good issue all in
all. I think I'll start getting it again.

Blobula: there are a couple of tracks for download
here (the ones with trees by them).

thanks. are these from the reviewed release?


 

offline purlieu from Leeds (United Kingdom) on 2004-07-24 17:08 [#01285395]
Points: 1228 Status: Lurker



Yeah. The tree in my avatar and by the two songs is the
cover for the album, so the tree tracks are from it
(although the album has a few stylistic variations, so it's
not all in the same style as those two)
The ones with the black and white squiggly thing are from my
previous album, Twenty-Four, which in comparison, is a bit
crap now. And there's a couple of other odds and ends on
there as well.
