ILX pre-covers Animal Collective's "Centipede Hz"

actually, i see that white chocolate cheesecake called "mercury man" before i did, so i'll do the one on the second disc.

That leaves five songs left to claim for Volume 2.

Get bent -- she changed to "Moonrock!" "Mercury Man" is still yours on 1.

Moonjock rather. But Moonrock works too.

w00t!

Are there track lengths for this or do we have free reign in that department?

Free reign, but I like the idea of some sort of formal requirement otherwise. Any suggestions?

all songs have to be wistful psychedelic examinations of childhood

i figured the formal requirement was that it bears a vague resemblance to actual AC tracks

In that there is music involved? Sure thing!

Wait, really? Because, um, just... no.

x-post

i was joking, i hate wistful examinations of childhood

non-wistful examinations of childhood, filled with spite

well when i say vague i mean very vague

but my track's probably going to end up being IDM of some sort so whatever

animal sounds

xxp That's like 23% of the songs I've ever written.

btw i hope we will be releasing this as Animal Collection

So when we're done, do we just post a link here? Or is there a dropbox or ftp thing?

We'll do this like LULU -- send me the tracks and I'll put 'em all together. E-mail or fileshare link to:

ned at kuci dot org

Anyway busy at a meeting here for a bit so will check in later to see about the final claimants (hopefully!) All that's left on Volume 2 again are:

03 Rosie Oh
08 Monkey Riches
09 Mercury Man
10 Pulleys
11 Amanita

I would like to take "Rosie Oh"

"Pulleys" plz

Done and done:

01 Moonjock -- MaresNest
02 Today's Supernatural -- V79
03 Rosie Oh -- da croupier
04 Applesauce -- dog latin
05 Wide Eyed -- Adam Bruneau
06 Father Time -- Z/S
07 New Town Burnout -- snoball
08 Monkey Riches
09 Mercury Man
10 Pulleys -- HI DERE
11 Amanita

I will happily contribute in a vocal capacity, but I have no instrumental ability.

I mean, I don't really have vocal ability either, but

Any title of the remaining three grab you?

They are all so good I can't decide. "Mercury Man" has the potential to be a really bizarre sci-fi story, though.

dibs on Monkey Riches

Sounds good, so:

01 Moonjock -- MaresNest
02 Today's Supernatural -- V79
03 Rosie Oh -- da croupier
04 Applesauce -- dog latin
05 Wide Eyed -- Adam Bruneau
06 Father Time -- Z/S
07 New Town Burnout -- snoball
08 Monkey Riches -- a hoy hoy
09 Mercury Man -- J3ff T.
10 Pulleys -- HI DERE
11 Amanita

One to go! Who wants it?

I AM CLAIMING IT FOR CONFOUNDED

11 Amanita - Confounded

YES PLZ

dude it's about shrooooooooms dude

Now accepting auditions for backing band! Also I have never heard Animal Collective (nor do I ever really want to).

I sort of wish Weird Al would do an Animal Collective parody.

no Honeycomb?!?!? that song owns

how would you describe animal collective's sound to someone who has never heard them?

ah fuck, too late, I'd have done this

put me on as a backup if anyone drops out

wistful psychedelic examinations of childhood

they sound like background music to gradius?

ah fuck, too late, I'd have done this

put me on as a backup if anyone drops out

We will need appropriate artwork of course.

just use the lulu artwork

You mean there's no room in your heart for some original artwork showing pink sparkling vomit?

I'm willing to try a collaboration with anyone who didn't make it on the list in time - contenderizer, uh oh, whoever.

imo cover should be this:

Thanks, will do!

(the full name obv not the initials. p sure I did tag it like that)

ned you can credit our to me & chris's full government names

"Joe and Joseph Josephfreson. Got it."

Okay, I'm going to call time on submissions as such, just so we can get this out the door. We have a 'complete' version for the first volume thanks to a ringer from DJP, plus most of the second volume, so we can call that the fake remix disc or something. Anyway! Final tracklisting:

--

MoonJock (Croydon Bass Mix) -- Karen D. Tregaskin
Today's Supernatural -- sarahell
Rosie Oh -- Mystery Meat
Applesauce -- Gavin, Leeds
Wide Eyed -- B-Boy Bualadh Bos (ecuador_with_a_c)
Father Time -- Charlie H
New Town Burnout -- (Matt and Chris's full government names)
Monkey Riches -- Scare Quotes
Mercury Man -- Grannykart
Pulleys -- ciderpress
Amanita -- AlXTC
Moonjock -- MaresNest
Rosie Oh -- Da Croupier
Wide Eyed -- Adam Bruneau
Father Time -- vveinventvou
New Town Burnout -- snoball
Pulleys -- DJP
Amanita -- Confounded

DJP's ringer track is credited to Mystery Meat, in that I assumed he would be pleased to have such a pseudonym.

Will post this here early tomorrow morning my time as a mediafire download.

hahaha perfecto

Anyway just completed my final proper listen on this thing -- very amusing/listenable. I think our LULU effort was one in a million but this is another fine contribution to the canon.
