Re: (313) Ultravox

2005-06-21 Thread Cyclone Wehner
I'd never heard the Ultravox (or poss Midge solo) version of Fade To Grey 
but I knew Ultravox basically were Visage with the addition of Steve
Strange. I now realise I had the lyrics wrong for years - it's not "English
someone" but "English summer" - as Midge's enuciation is stronger. ;)
Ultravox's Vienna is one of the best records EVER.
These new 80s comps (cut and paste 12"/80s into UK Amazon to see tracklist)
are so off the hook - beautiful masters, rare songs, etc. Echo & The
Bunnymen, Tom Tom Club, Grace Jones, etc, etc, etc.
Night Train is Visage very funky with horns and a swing feel, if you can
imagine that.
There is also a new slick edition of ABC's Lexicon Of Love out with
outtakes/live material as well - same series as new versions of Marvin
Gaye/Donna Summer albums, etc, from Universal.

Seeing as most of you f*ckers never trim your messages, I'm going to inflict a 
retributive all-in-one response to three digests. That'll learn ya.
 


There's a thing called karma, and it's going to get you.

But first, anyone heard a new EP from Chris Lowe of the Pet Shop Boys? I think it's called 'The other guy from the Pet Shop Boys'. Anyway... I have a faint memory of hearing it last weekend and thinking that it sounded like some proper beauty techno. Gonna have to give it another listen. 



 

Jamie and Pav were taking the piss - that was actually a Terrace record.

Re: (313) Jeff Mills & An Orchestra!

2005-06-21 Thread Benoît Pueyo

Thats the one, that Philip Glass interpretation is amazing !!!

Talking about Mills, the same orchestra already did a show with hardcore 
French Djs Manu le Malin & Torgull . (never heard that one); Mills 
doesnt do something "New" there, though the "venue" sounds magic eh !


As said before i guess he will do some more experimental stuff... I 
remember the A2 track of Every dog has its day vol 1 sounding like done 
only with acoustic instruments.

New album is on Thirsty Ear Blue Series.  It's called "In The Center".
Very jazz leaning keeping with the Blue Series.  Played a couple of tracks
off of it last night.  They were cutting footage of old jazz films in and
David King was amazing on these tracks.  Dangers played a bass flute making
a low pitched droning underneath the jazz samples.

Re: (313) OT Jeff Mills & An Orchestra!

2005-06-21 Thread Dennis DeSantis
On a related note, I play percussion with a chamber orchestra called 
Alarm Will Sound (www.alarmwillsound.com) and we're releasing a record 
next month of Aphex Twin arrangements done entirely on acoustic 
instruments.  There's all sorts of extended techniques at work here, in 
an attempt to get as close as possible to the original textures of the 
tracks while keeping the whole thing in the acoustic domain.


A little more info is available here: 
http://www.cantaloupemusic.com/upcoming.html#aphex


Admittedly I'm biased, since I'm so close to this project.  But I think 
it IS possible to merge the acoustic and electronic worlds in this way 
and not end up with something totally ridiculous.  But there are all 
sorts of pitfalls along the way.  The precision of machine quantization 
is really important to electronic music - players can never play that 
way, nor would you want them to.  So finding a way of creating the 
energy of precision without the actual precision is a really tough task.


My $.02,

(313) Jeff Mills & An Orchestra!

2005-06-21 Thread alex . bond
saw this:

http://technotourist.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=768&mode=thread&order=0

did you talk about it already? (sorry if you did).

so, whaddya think?

a) interesting progression for further experiments with modern music

or

 b) a right load of twaddle?

discuss.

me, I think in general, sometimes music of electronic origin comes across
badly when played in a more 'traditional' sense. in ditching the electronic
aspect, you tend to lose alot of what the track is about, as it tends to be
more about actual sounds, and maybe just simple hooks. Most electronic
musicians dont think about writing actual songs as such I dont think.
someone say like, kraftwerk were always more song based, so their stuff
generally sounds good when covered because the songs are strong. but I aint
too sure how jeff mills stuff would fair without all those dope crazy
sounds he uses. they seem to set the atmosphere.

but then I could be talking a load of old rubbish, which to be fair is
generally my more usual vibe.

So yeah, thanks to all out German friends on the list. I really really

Phrooaugh!  What a show!  If they're on the way to your city do yourself a
favor and go see them.  This is my third time and they never disappoint.

They pulled out "House of God" even - f'ing fantastic to hear that live -
live acid house
they dropped Tino Corp tracks as well

Dangers & Co. were using the Pioneer DVD controller/turntables cutting and
scratching live video

Well that's only if you opt for the compressed bit-rate option.
Naturally you'll be able to get uncompressed AIFF (or whatever your
preferred codec) hearing aids for up to 192khz ... I personally will be
the one over-using the 'Datube' valve-sim VSTi just to give things that
extra warmth!

(Then again I might just preserve my hearing now and listen to music
directly ...)

(313) Ultravox

2005-06-21 Thread Cyclone Wehner
I unearthed an Ultravox 'best of' for very little the other day. This is one
of the most underrated electronic bands ever... - always found Midge Ure's
soulful tones very affecting. I was not in favour of their later material -
too Big Country/Simple Minds like for me - but anything circa Vienna was
great. The comp I got, The Finest, has Midge's rendition of Fade To Grey
(live) which is vastly different to the version they did with Steve Strange
as Visage but kinda cool since Midge possesses a stronger voice, and a very
soulful one. More guitar oriented, less atmospheric, but edgy and cool.
Anyone heard it? It's interesting that Visage should retain their cool
longer than Ultravox, but I think on the whole the Visage material was
excellent and still sounds compelling.

There's a fantastic new 80s comp series of remastered 12's from the UK which
has everyone bugging here - it's called 12"/80s. They are onto the 2nd set
and each set has 3 disks. You get remastered Night Train by Visage, lot of
divine stuff!

first detroit techno record: Maurizio - Domina

got into techno: early house/techno parties in Radost FX, Prague while I
lived there ('91-'92).

memorable nights: definitely '93-'95 techno parties on Thursday's in
Aquarius Club, Zagreb, Croatia where this "German Techno' (Tresor Rec.,
Basic Channel, etc)was played. Strangely, most of those guest 'German
Techno DJ's' where black and from Detroit ;-))

i heart techno because: It works for me

Inspired by: seeing very different age groups into the same thing

urgent matter(!): any good shops, clubs in Perth, AU ? ;-))
Will be there this weekend.
