Duane, you know that wasn't it.

I'm hoping to include buglebear senior's "I want to be an elf". 'Tis a Christmas song.

― jel --, Wednesday, 13 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The track I want to contribute is a Christmas song, too!

― Dan Perry, Wednesday, 13 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

it would be neat if everyone represented a different genre instead of just all lofi acoustic-y stuff and laptop glitch.

― ethan, Wednesday, 13 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

What made you think that was going to be the case?

― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 13 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The track I want to submit is SO not laptop glitch.

― Dan Perry, Wednesday, 13 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

perhaps Hank could be persuaded to provide a dirty garagey track or a loud, punishing bluesy track. he definitely doesn't do anything that could be described as "lo" or "acoustic". Just ask my cat cowering under the bed.

― Samantha, Wednesday, 13 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I vote for Ethan to do the art. I swear I'm not biased.

Does the deadline have to be as soon as May? I'd like to contribute, but it would be a bit of an effort. I think that might be too soon, anyhow, especially if this is going to be as involved a process as it seems to be leaning towards.

― matthew m., Wednesday, 13 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i don't even know what 'laptop glitch' is.

― , Wednesday, 13 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

which i guess makes it a good genre for me to essay. can someone lend me a laptop?

― , Wednesday, 13 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I would love to contribute.

― dleone, Saturday, 16 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm in, if there's room. My jazz quartet just recorded an album, I would love to use one of the alternate takes.

― Jordan, Saturday, 16 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

it would be cool if we could get a dope artist to do the artwork

― chippy, Sunday, 17 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

YES IT WOULD BE

― ethan, Sunday, 17 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

maybe you'll hit me and tell me to shut the fuck up.. but a better idea surely would be if you did like an 'eclectic' dj mix album with each ilx member/regular submitting one of their favourite songs.

might be better than a load of amateur glitch twee bollocks and momus.

― Wyndham Earl, Sunday, 17 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Uh, no. For one thing, you don't know what's actually going to be presented (hell, nobody does); for another, the whole point is to show yer creativity. :-)

― Ned Raggett, Sunday, 17 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I would literally much, much rather hear someone else's music rather than someone else's musical taste.

― electric sound of jim, Sunday, 17 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Okay, I'm starting to get PISSED OFF that people are assuming that I would write twee glitch. There isn't a twee bone in my entire fucking body. I eat babies for breakfast, I'm so fucking hardcore. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go frolic with the unicorns. Tra-lala-lalalala, Tra-lala-laLAAAAAAAAA... SATAN!

― Dan Perry, Sunday, 17 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

That's "Dan P*rry", Googling future prospective employers. That name again: "Dan P*rry".(* Sorry, I'm a wuss)

― Graham, Sunday, 17 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

(because Dan is so fucking hardcore)

― Graham, Sunday, 17 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

― electric sound of jim, Sunday, 17 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

(more info on this in the next week or so, promise!)

― jel --, Monday, 18 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

wyndham e. - no that's a dumm idea.

― duane, Monday, 18 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

there's already suppose to be that ILX mixtape, right? you can just have that if you dont want to hear our wonderful works of creative genius.

― duane, Monday, 18 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

oh ok.

what, i mean, you think i want to hear your scabby 'tastes' in music too?

meh.

― Wyndham Earl, Monday, 18 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

So you didn't like the CD i sent you then Mr Earl?

― electric sound of jim, Monday, 18 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

if ppl have already decided this is going to suck, OK! i'm thinkin' a @20-minute drum solo.

― duane, Monday, 18 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

no i just thought of something better - a TOPLOADER COVER with a 20 min drum solo. SEe me go!

― duane, Monday, 18 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I think I might to a Jandek medley using only the spoons

― electric sound of jim, Monday, 18 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

can i "remix" it? this will involve editing in a 20 min drum solo somewhere.

― , Tuesday, 19 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

absolutely! it will be an hour long, and will take up one of the CDs on its own.

― electric sound of jim, Tuesday, 19 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

hey duane stop stealing my jokes.
oh btw, to duane and duckling, i suggest we get set on our respective collaborations over easter?

― di, Tuesday, 19 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i didnt "steal" yr joke, i re-mixed it.

― duane, Tuesday, 19 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

From all I've read, this sounds like it may be three CDs....going on four;>

I can't play a damn thing, but I wouldn't mind writing some of the liner notes, as well....if we amateurs can contribute.

― Nichole Graham, Tuesday, 19 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

My new band "Band for a day" are going to contribute some extreme noise, radiators, indeed.

― jel --, Tuesday, 19 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I work for a record label. They probably wouldn't release it but would be willing and able to give lots of help and advice on releasing it ourselves and be able to get a much better deal at a pressing plant than one availible to the general public

― Ed, Tuesday, 19 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Also, I now have music making facilities, (REAKTOR, BATTERY, DP3) on my computer, so I might have something for you.

― Ed, Tuesday, 19 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Dammit, why'd all y'all post this on ILE instead of ILM? Doh! (I guess I should start reading ILE except, like, there's only so many hours in the day). I'd like to be in, but virtually everything I have recorded is pushing 10-15 years old now. I really should get my hard disk recording software operational and get some stuff together. Definitely not glitch from this end, but hard to tell which direction it'll go, cause I do anything from jangle pop to harsh electric noise, depending on my mood. (nothing like lack of focus)

― Sean Carruthers, Thursday, 21 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

So have we decided on a final closing date? and where do we send our finished tracks (not that I have any yet, just wondering...)

― electric sound of jim, Thursday, 21 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I just sent Jel a question regarding this. No doubt something will be figured out shortly. :-)

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Still having fun trying out some other ideas - a Nagel-ish 3rd mock up can be viewed here if you wanna looksee.

― Kim, Thursday, 21 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

get in ! - i will write summat today

― a-33, Friday, 22 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

me too !!

― , Friday, 22 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

three months pass...

Count me in!
I'm thinking of contributing my 2step remix of the Family Ties theme!!
