Yea Ken, when I heard yours it was an obvious and perfect first track.

i loved being part of this but i was sad at how little overall female participation there was (i know trayce wanted to contribute but had to drop out). i hope we can actively recruit more chicks for the next project, cuz i know lots of women on ilx play music.

Meant to say, I DL'd this as soon as it went up and it's great from front to back.

Okay so remember

I had no idea ILX was so talented!Has anyone emailed Colin et al?― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Thursday, May 13, 2010 3:38 AM (1 week ago) Bookmark Suggest Ban PermalinkNed has mentioned it upthread, I don't think anyone has yet.

Well, I took the initiative and sent a quick Twitter message to Colin Newman (he's @headgit btw) letting him know about this and asking him nicely to please not sue us, and just got the following back, today:
@globalhermit Hey Sean I downloaded it some nice ideas :) Be very interested where you got the Austrian Radio thingy.
So uh, he's probably listened to everyone's contribution by now! Where DID that Austrian Radio thingy come from btw?

Hurrah!

Austrian or Austrailian?
― double shyamalan (MaresNest), Friday, 21 May 2010 06:48 (fourteen years ago) link
Austrian - guess he means the bonus live show that was in the FTP directory...?
― Sean Carruthers, Friday, 21 May 2010 12:06 (fourteen years ago) link
OK, now I'm interested...
(Not that I wasn't before, you know)..

Oh that, I downloaded it from Dime.

final placement are more likely to sue than wire but then again justine frischmann would prolly disagree
― (e_3) (Edward III), Friday, 21 May 2010 12:55 (fourteen years ago) link
maybe you should amend that Sean to please don't sue us and/or Dime
― double shyamalan (MaresNest), Friday, 21 May 2010 12:56 (fourteen years ago) link
uh maybe just say "i found it on the internets c/r where"

Yeah Sean, *you* found it on the internets

Can you sue someone for misrepresenting a work, i.e. claiming it's a cover and attributing credit to the original band when it doesn't really bear much relation at all?

like an anti-matter Elastica
Gotta say, I feel a bit weird, breaking up the flow of everyone's excellent covers with my 8-minute nouveau-splurge bedroom-art-attack. Makes me nervous when people are all 'this is great!' about the whole thing.
― Dan, Dan, DARRAGH (acoleuthic), Friday, 21 May 2010 13:04 (fourteen years ago) link
Like you intentionally spoiled the song?
― double shyamalan (MaresNest), Friday, 21 May 2010 13:27 (fourteen years ago) link
Spoiled?! That's harsh. Gave my own spin on it, yes.

― Wenlock & Mandelson (Tom D.), Friday, 21 May 2010 13:33 (fourteen years ago) link
XP: Sorry LJ, I wasn't suggesting you did, just wondering why you might be nervous about CN checking it out. Unless I'm reading you wrong.
― double shyamalan (MaresNest), Friday, 21 May 2010 13:35 (fourteen years ago) link
You are mental tho' :)
Nooo, I'm not nervous about CN checking it out, just nervous at the blanket praise given to the comp. As if I've somehow thrown a big stinking weed among the roses.
― Dan, Dan, DARRAGH (acoleuthic), Friday, 21 May 2010 13:39 (fourteen years ago) link
I'm sure it's the scented rose in the bumgut of Satan
― Wenlock & Mandelson (Tom D.), Friday, 21 May 2010 13:40 (fourteen years ago) link
I can only assume that MaresNest sequenced mine after the prettiest, most radio-friendly song on the whole comp out of some sense of gleeful anarchism
― Dan, Dan, DARRAGH (acoleuthic), Friday, 21 May 2010 13:43 (fourteen years ago) link
I pussied out a bit by not thinking too hard about the sequencing, I knew Ken's was first, Meower last, the multiples had to be far apart and yours and mine (being long assed) needed to be apart too, nowt beyond that.
― double shyamalan (MaresNest), Friday, 21 May 2010 13:50 (fourteen years ago) link
(that said, 'prettiest' even as meant in that sense is challenged by Sean, n/a, Elvis T and MaresNest...there's a lot of pretty, also a lot of kickass)
Hey - the sequencing's pretty good IMO! I'm not fussed at all; it doesn't seem too worked-out but it works, which is optimal. It works especially well as a double-album; each disc has a nice flow to it. ESOJ/S' one is quite long as well, btw ;-)

Please to put working link to download in first post of thread, I've scrolled up and down through these 500+ messages and found two expired YouSendIt links.

Stan: show all messages and then search FTP: and you'll find it in the meantime.
