Maurice Fulton...best tunes by him

leave michael jackson alone, you STUPID BEEEITCH!

anything new from maurice of late?

Can someone re-up some of these, I missed this topic...

did anybody grab the maurice fulton podcast that was up on resident advisor??

i missed it

=(

YSI??

xpost

+ Speaking about "Permanant Vacation" mix (which is great, but then I love anything in which the first adjective involved in describing it is "pretty" - see love for any Ewan Pearson set as well), Vahid, you have to check out Permanant Vaction's Kathy Diamond 12" "All Woman" (produced by Fulton) which is the first single of her coming album "Miss Diamond To You" (which hopefully includes "Sunshine" and other Fulton productions).

For the love of god HOW DO I PRONOUNCE LADYVIPB

hehe, I say Lady VIP B, easy to say I guess hehe

This is of course a purely academic question, as no one I talk to (with my mouth) knows what the hell a "ladyvipb" is, but dammit, enquiring minds want to know.

Maybe it's an anagram.

"badly VIP"

So according to Galkin of the BDA DFA, Syclops are on DFA:

they are signed to DFA now. we have a new 12" out in a few months called Where's Jason K and an LP out early 2008. more details soon.

Syclops record? new MU record??

Reasonably late response, but there are some quotes from Fulton regarding Ladyvipb here http://www.allbusiness.com/retail-trade/miscellaneous-retail-retail-stores-not/4645368-1.html On the other hand I swear I read him saying somewhere that Ladyvipb stood for Lady V.I.P. Bitch aka ex-girlfriend.

Nice to here that there'll be some new Syclops soon.

HEY

does anybody have a tracklisting for the resident advisor podcast??

that barbra streisand re-edit is a must own!!

syclops record "i've got my eye on you" out in april ... looks like it's got some of the tirk singles on it, "where's jasons k", no "monkeypuss", and other new tracks ...

deej - "that barbra streisand re-edit is a must own!!"

were you referring to the RA podcast or is this a maurice fulton edit?

listened to syclops "the fly" the other day, still gives me the chills when that pad synth sound comes in, turns this slightly grating, gimmicky track into something else entirely.

picked up 'stress why put me through it' for cheap yesterday. recognised 'my gigalo' (2manydjs no?). surprised this hasn't had a mention on ilm. no love?

i've posted a bunch about it but i can't find my old posts on it.

I was looking for that thread, when this one got revived. What was it called? Maybe not a specific Fulton thread?

I have Stress, the second Mu album, Where's Jason K, the I:Cube, Rapture, Hot Chip and !!! remixes (and I only just found out that he produced that !!! album) and the RA mix, as well as some of those Bubbletease Communications things. Oh, and Kathy Diamond All Woman and Alice Smith Love Endeavour.

I LOVE all these things - but especially the last two. I saw him DJ at that Lovebox weekender thing last summer and it was great. It all sounded like the Alice Smith remix. Gospel piano house-type stuff. It was amazing.

Erm, so what else do I need?

the version of the song in the RA podcast is not the original

fulton playing in toronto, nyc and sf soon. stay tuned.

so syclops record is good

syclops record is so good

syclops record is SO good

been listening to the stress record a bit lately, it is fantastic. i need to hunt down all the singles from it - chicken lips did a pretty mental dub of 'my gigolo'!

still yet to see syclops record in the shops unfortunately.

would really like to hear that chicken lips version. i should listen to them more.

got syclops today. it's amazing. like he figured out how to accentuate every good part of all his old albums while simultaneously ditching the goofy aspects (flute solos, aimless ambient interludes, creeping un-tunefulness) that held albums like "boof: life is water for gerbadaisies when they're dancing" back.

really, really hard to believe that it's a band, though.

he was pretty insistent upon it, even in person

i think syclops is not very good. it's like an untuneful IDM album. reminds me of Squarepusher's "Music is Rotted One Note". lots of cool sound effects with no substance. no songs. no melodies. the only 2 songs that are any good are The Fly (when those keys come in near the end is really nice) and Where's Jason K.

then again, i'm not a fulton fanboy. didn't really like the Mu album and thought the Kathy Diamond album was just ok. never heard anything else.

if you think this is untuneful you should hear older fulton songs. it gets annoying at times. incredible production, amazing beats, but the synth squiggles are just all over the place.

maybe it's a concept thing. on a certain level it's not so different from ornette coleman's "free funk" albums, where dudes are just vamping all over the place with no regard for anything like a hook.

syclop at least has some hooks?

The Bubbletease podcasts are packed full of incredibly tuneful, melodic and hooky stuff, supposedly all Fulton originals (I've rarely noticed a sample at least). Most of that never sees a release, so I wonder if he just thinks the skronky, squiggly style is what the world wants from him?

buh buh buh BOOF

me and my boof and my boof boof vibin

boof

boof

idk if this record has my favorite maurice fulton tunes on it (tho the first track and chicken and waffles are up there) but it's definitely a highlight in terms of how it presents his sound. also kind of a love letter to delay effects. also a good weed album.

his percussion always sounds amazing but it sounds extra amazing on this

"the force is going backwards" is my other fav

killer remix

kind of the ultimate winter love jam?

jimi tenor - spell (maurice fulton mix)

lmao at the breakdown

total killer

y'all boxedjoy turned me on to this recent Maurice Fulton production that was released with VERY little fanfare but oh my god is it fucking gorgeous, go listen to it ASAP

https://danaew.bandcamp.com/album/good-fruit-2

https://open.spotify.com/album/6er8gruMsQlDjv3ICkVkH2

tbf Maurice Fulton has never really released things with much fanfare either

oh man

one of my favourite things is that errant "-2" on that bandcamp link - it tells a story of the first upload of the album being a mistake in some way and they had to delete it and try again (I know because I have done this myself)

lol interesting

https://mimsuleiman.bandcamp.com/album/poa

new Mim Suleiman album!

it's so good and it's a mystery to me why she isn't way more popular. i saw her live a few years back and it ruled but she doesn't seem to get so many gigs. strange!

It's been 0 days since I've discovered that Maurice's remix of My Heartbeat, by Annie (which I was searching for after 18 years listening to it!), is, in fact, an early version of Syclops' Mom, the Video Broke

BOOF

oh this is v topical, I was just telling my friend abt Maurice Fulton a few weeks ago and have been slowly assembling him a playlist, and I rediscovered the Kathy Diamond album and JESUS CHRIST is it good!!! All the little snippet interludes give me big Gwen Guthrie "Padlock" (not to mention the music itself) vibes which I feel like had to be deliberate??

oh hey there’s a new Syclops album

https://syclopsbubbleteasecommunications.bandcamp.com/album/black-eye

the first 2 tracks have been ruling my world the last couple of weeks.

How is he so good?????

New Boof single is fuuunnky

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_pUeVKjoMA

he’s so good

there is whole album out too.

bloomin' delicious

OMFG WHAT

finally listening to the above boof single, top-tier fulton for sure. how's the album?

fucking incredible, I just finished and can't wait to go again

👍👍

it's great. his playing is off the hook. i feel like it's his best one yet.

i mean i'm assuming it's fulton on the e-piano. and the drums?
