Anyone know where I, a UK resident, might actually be able to buy some of his records. On CD. For reasonable prices. Usual sources are turning up nowt and google is being singularly unhelpful. Been listening to the set from Sonar and it's pretty tasty. |

i love that name |

It's a good name. And sounds like it ought to be crazy japanese noise, but isn't. Well, not noise anyway. |
||||||||
|

|
|
unfortunately I don't know if you can get the cd, but what type music is it? |
||||||||
|

check your xltronic mail.. |

Oh. erm, people always want to know what it sounds like at some point and I'm just rubbish at describing music. It's sort of um... no I can't do it. :( |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
just a general genre.. you said not noisy anyway.. is it a japanese dude, and does he do that wonderful japanese minimalistic thing? |

a description on www.lowlands.be: "Quite unique combination of live instrument samples and electronica. Worlds End Girlfriend can create the most delicate of moves before ripping it to shreads with screaming guitars or subtly disrupting with hard-drive manipulation." i'm sure that helped a lot :-/ |

checked and replied! I wish I knew what my xltronic email password was so I could set up the smtp authentication. I replied via gmail instead :) |

hahaha! sounds kind of like something I'd like if that description doesn't imply that it's mainly rock-ish... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
..and a google search for worlds end girlfriend samples wasn't really helpful either... |

Don't let "guitars" make you think "rock". I know rock and this ain't it. |

these guitars can scream! |

He must not be treating them well. |

no, I don't.. I've made stuff with guitars, and it most likely couldn't even be called somewhat acoustic music. the thing is that all too often when you see something described as unique combination of live instrument samples and electronica. it turns out to be three people, one on drums, one on guitar and one on bass, and one of them has a foot-switch sampler that he sometimes records a guitar-riff on, and loops it and then plays more guitar on top... believe me, I've been going all too hopeful to several concerts and left thinking: "what the fuck? it's like 99% of other music out there, so why was it described as something new and amazing?" |
||||||||

I'd say it flips between classical styles and electronica styles. But quite how you'd describe each style is anybody's guess. Or somebody else's guess at least. See how crap I am? |
||||||||

similar artists, then? |

i heard WEG sometime back in my junior year of high school. i was floored by farewell kingdom. and absolutely nobody had heard of it! its such a good album, i was absolutely shocked that i couldnt find more than a few people who had heard of it. number of albums later, finally nice to see WEG get more recognized. some really amazing work. |

Though there appears to be much love for Worlds End Girlfriend (which is a good thing!), I guess no-one can actually help me out. |

The Sonar Sets Are On For Anyone Who Wants To Listen There were so many good acts on this year, MIA, General Electrics, WhomadeWho and The Incredible beatbox band Rocked it |

I've been recording them. I've only really listened back to W.E.G. and Subtle so far. Vitalic on the Breezeblock tonight... |

Excellent! All albums on CD, in stock, and at resonable prices. Cheers! *checks on postage costs* |
