I LOL'd so hard when I first heard the Final Placement sample in Edward III's track

Another ILX Bucket comp *is* a very good idea, but I almost want to defer to Mark G to coordinate that! If he's willing.― Ned Raggett, Friday, 21 May 2010 20:13 (2 months ago) Bookmark Suggest Ban Permalink

Reasons I don't want to do this:
1) I had a fantastic time doing this, it was like christmas every time a track arrived, and barring a few technicalities (i.e. a couple of tracks that were too long) I was able to incorporate everything I received into the final tracklisting, and every track was wonderful. It's not that 'you shouldn't revisit, next time would not be as good' it's more that someone else should have that kind of fun.
2) I was going to contribute a track last time, but ran out of time and/or inspiration, I forget which. Also, I would be either biased towards (or against) my track's placement (or lack of it), etc. Someone else needs to make that kind of decision.
3) Thesedays, I have less of an ILX presence. Having said that, if someone does kick Vol4 off, they'd better let me know. I missed out on the U2 and the Wire comps, but hey.
So, it's up for grabs.
Hmm, I might repost that message on a dedicated thread.

Hah, my friend Tyler just played "Ambitious" by Paul and Ned (and credited it from the album 12SBU on the playlist! I don't think he even knows that this thread exists. Congrats! Also, Tyler's show is awesome, tune it:

Haha this is a vision.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 12 March 2012 18:32 (twelve years ago) link
It was beautiful in the context of the show too. I have no idea how he got the song, but Tyler is a gem, so it was perhaps one of those things that was meant to be. He just played Medicine by the way.

It's been a little while since Bowie & seeing as it was popular and fun, might anybody be interested in another shot at an ILX Wire Comp? I'm happy to curate.

Start up a thread, see what happens..

I really wish I had been able to do this - went thru a breakup right in the middle of the damn thing - but in a way I'm glad I didnt because now I would have done "silk skin paws" instead of "kidney bingos" and I really want to do a cover of it anyway, just listening to the track again now, damn.

SO is another one happening? I'm in a way better place to actually do something this time round!
― It is like ganging up on Enya (Trayce), Friday, 14 June 2013 01:28 (ten years ago) link
A thread did start up but only Ned and I replied..

It died on the operating table :(
― MaresNest, Friday, 14 June 2013 08:45 (ten years ago) link
Pooh :( Well maybe I'll just do my cover ANYWAY! :)

can't get over MaresNest's Boiling Boy. it's so much better than (either version of) the original

seriously, think it might be the best piece of music on any ilx compilation
