delia gonzalez & gavin russom - the days of mars

http://www.midheaven.com/item/city-never-sleeps-by-crystal-ark-12

wish the clips were a bit longer, couldn't really get a feel for what the songs were like

then again i kinda feel cheated if a gavin russom song is less then eight minutes long

i want him to wire his synthesisers directly into my brain ,really. number one on my list of people i want to get round my studio with a soldering iron

i just heard this in its entirety.wow!

is it leaked or is it out yet or did you get a promo copy or what

Just spotted this sweet bit on news on his website:

"In September I went into the studio with Delia Gonzalez and Eric Broucek to mix “Track 5” which Delia and I originally recorded during the “Days of Mars” sessions. The track didn’t fit with the rest of the album and was left unreleased. After doing a second studio session on it in 2007 at Choose Audio in Berlin we were ready to release it but further complications stalled the process. Finally mixed and ready to go this track will appear as a 12” single on DFA in 2010."

it's a promo copy, karen.

this is out

oh sweet, im there.

oooo off to itunes

just the one 12" at this point, right?

those few seconds on the midheaven site are awful promising

five and a half minutes in, and it's really starting to build.

anyone know anything abt the thing hes done with Carlos Giffoni?

lol @ "clap at 4:11 concept by gunnar bjerk, performed by gavin russom"

Wow, hello! I hadn't heard of this before but I think I need to?

Oh yes, it is on iTunes. Cheap, as well.

xp- haha, credit where credit is due?

there's been talk of a giffoni collab? where where?

I completely missed THE HANDCLAP the first time I heard it. Nice effect, though.

This is acid: the primordial years

xpost, the effect is nice but what about the concept?! ;-)

Ha ha, it was conceptually elegant. Yes.

ok wow this no fun acid thing could be excellent. makes a lot of sense imo

kindof a lot of similarities between the Adult life album and the black meteoric star one as it is, pretty excited at idea of violent, fractured acid house collab in my head

No Fun Acid supporting Oneohtrix Point Never in London tomorrow night. tempted to check it out.

this crystal ark thing is so a+

It's my workout music in the morning! ha ha.

haha i am just exercising to it right now, and black meteoric star album was my default workout music last year

crystal ark is fantastic, hammering it at the minute

anyone heard the no fun remix? there wasnt any copies at the live show. saw it last week with oneohtrix and was a bit underwhelmed, i suppose i was expecting something a bit noisy and off the grid. sounded more like ceefax but then again the sequencers hem you into that.

this crystal ark thing is so a+

the best thing they've done

sorry, that would still be "Casual Friday"

omg i dont know how you could work out to black meteoric star, too thumping and heavy

i would like to go out this weekend and hear this, and then be peeled off the roof

i hope people are playing the vocal version!

crystal ark tour? yes please

wow wow wow this is HEAVY

new crystal ark on itunes

on emusic too...

^sooooo good. maybe not better than "city never sleeps" but still

good. maybe not better than "city never sleeps"

this, really. though i am starting to wonder if it's actually not all that good and i'm just predisposed to like it because it's russom

nah it is good

is is better than the previous one? not sure it matters

crystal ark put on a p great show at p.s.1 the other weekend btw

having only listened to the main mix once, I like it better than the last single, at least as far as "dance music". Not sure about the vocalist yet. a good diva is hard to find

i love days of mars to pieces. it's like my ideal vast space synth laser drone music. pretty much had it on repeat lately with oneohtrix albums

i've only heard the 2nd and 3rd ep, but i really like russom's no fun acid project too. it's kinda too noisy for the dancefloor, and too dancey for the noise kids- but i'd imagine that most people into stuff like black dice or eye's solo outings or the more cracked-out side of early acid house would have no difficulties appreciating this stuff

i believe no fun acid is carlos giffoni. russom has a remix on the b side of #2 and yes it's great!

ah, shit you're right. i though it was russom and giffoni, but i guess it's just giffoni making acid stuff with one russom remix. bah. anyways, it's all good stuff from what i've heard

no fun acid sadly apt imo, including the russom remix

is there going to a crystal ark album?

*to be*

It's been a long time-- like, five years long-- since we've heard from Delia Gonzalez and Gavin Russom, whose last recorded output was 2005's The Days of Mars. Now, Delia and Gavin are set to return with what looks to be their final release, the Track Five 12", which will drop October 12 on vinyl and digitally via DFA. You can stream the epic-sounding title track, which was originally an outtake from the four-song The Days of Mars (hence the title). The official release will include a remix from German producer Âme.
