One of the best albums to come out so far this year... if people are looking for realy interesting ambient type stuff... they should check it out... probably one of his more accessible releases, particularly if you aren't so much into the noise end of things... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
where did you get it from? |
||||||||
|
|

i bought it from my record -store owner hook-up actually, i bought it on new years eve. even though the release date wasn't till the first week of january (i don't know how that works) it shouldn't be too hard to find |
||||||||

im surprised it wasnt in boomkat's newsletter. and i can't find it on amazon. i'll go check in the record store here, they usually get jeck's releases - do you know what label was this released on? |

Touch... with beautiful Jan Wozencroft designed packaging... and i know you'll like it... the trick is getting other to listen... you should also try to find this new compilation on touch called "Spire: Organ Works Past, Present & Future" it's got the entire touch roster, and more... it looks like it would be so nice... i'm trying to track it down |
||||||||
|

thanks. i'll see if i can find that spire... i had some troubles finding it as i was searching for seven instead 7, but i read some reviews and im getting it. btw, that touch online shop is reaoly the weirdest thing i ever saw - you can't scroll down so you can only get releases from letter a to o...weird, or im not to good with it :) |
||||||||

honestly though... at least you could consider ordering from it... way too much of the music i like comes from europe... i need to live there... i hate not being able to grab stuff from this store or that store because of the shipping... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

that's the trouble, i can order releases which start with letter a to releases which start with letter o. since philip jeck starts with p i can't get it obviously, not to mention that search function doesn't work :). as far as ordering, since we're not in european union just yet i have to pay additional tax (something like 30% now) so it isn't that cheap, but we're getting into union in may this year and i'll get stuff much cheaper then. anyway, here's a link to that touch online shop - can you check it out and see if you can scroll down to jeck please? |

http://www.touchshop.org/index.php?cPath=6&id=501ff9ff452b3 f2451515fc1db21737c hope that works for ya... apologies... i'm a llittle out of it right now |
||||||||

ok, it works for me now as well :) its funny cos if you access the shop from touch site you can't scroll down. |
||||||||
|

oh touch... why must you kill andrew mackenzie? and i still haven't even bought the fuckin aeh3o cds... so now i'm killing him too... waaa |

this is excellent album. i just heard it for the first time and listening second time around :) it's like a mixture of susumu yokota sounds with tim hecker's stuff, really beautiful melodies, and the sounds he used are brilliant, he combines sounds much like yokota actually... anyone who's up for some beautiful melodic beatless music should listen to this record! what an amazing album... |
||||||||

didnt he release another album in 2003 too(close to the end)? i dont even have stoke from 2002 or his earliert releases let alone these. people need to slow down and let me have a good amount of time to get these albums! |

TIROX(. |

you should definitely hear stoke, it's one of his best, for sure... the other release he put out last year was Host... and it turned out to be unauthorized, so it is now out of print... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd say wait with "stoke" if you haven't heard his other releases, it's pretty hard to get into. i would also recommed you to start with 7 or vinyl coda IV maybe. if you can get "host" anywhere, get that as well, it's brilliant. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
really? i find Host is not nearly as good as Stoke... the back half is a little weak, but tracks like Pax, and Vienna Faults are awesome, imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
stoke is excellent, but i wouldn't recommend it to someone who's getting into jeck as a first record, well at least not if they find noisy record difficult to listen to. vienna faults is excellent, but my favourite on stoke is "open". i have been listening to 7 quite a lot since yesterday and im loving it. i was quite surprised to those ambient tunes, a bit unlike his previous more noisy ambient. especially "wipe" is one of the best ambient pieces i've ever heard. btw, do you know "klick" by thomas brinkmann? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've had it sitting on my computer for over a year, but haven't given it more than a half-listen... i did hear mokira.. and wasn't to crazy about that... but Brinkmann definitely deserves to be revisited... i read somewhere that he makes alot of his sounds just by taking a knife and cutting his own grooves into blank records, or something... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
here's what the sleeve of "klick" says:" 10 tracks made with two decks, an isolator, a mixer and some with a tc multieffect. about 15 endless grooves, cut with a knife in the last groove of vinyl records, some voices from records as well, and feedbacks are the sound sources. the loops are cut between 1978 and 2000 like the one on suppose 08 (feran loop)." actually this is the only album i have by brinkmann, but im going to look into his other stuff as well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just gave Brinkmann's Klick a listen... and it was pretty nice... i was worried it'd be too minimal, but i didn't find that at all... i'll definitely have to give it another listen in the next little while... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
did anyone beside me and deadeight here, actually check "7"?? cuz it's very nice and you can all be sorry to miss out such a nice release! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think one other person did... or at least one other person mentioned it... i'm sure there are a few people who would... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's beyond my understanding why he isn't appreciated on this mb. isn't he a part of idm scene as well? perhaps it's true that most people on this mb are mainly focused on warp... weird. |
