*sigh*

I'll probably just go with two or three..

yeah i am gonna have to break it gently to my store guy if he ever calls me
i have birthday money to spend and i am not going to spend it on something that i don't really want because i waited for that dude to call me
if the store has one extra, someone will buy them, don't worry

Don't know if this is common knowledge, but Aphex Twin's Rephlex label was trying to license Affenstunde just before the new wave of CD reissues. Trivia, I know.

i'm not sure this was ever posted? interview with valerio cosi, who is releasing Valerio Cosi plays Popol Vuh’ this month along with the reissues. he seems pretty good, i'll give it a chance.

Like to hear that

i wondered what is daniel fichelscher doing these days?
and i found this
he sounds great!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSGWFX84NkQ

seriously, dude tells some great stories
i'm not sure at what point in the interview he removes his shirt. but i've only watched a tiny portion of it so far

his drum noises around 11:50 is priceless!

At 19:50 he goes out for cigarettes, which presumably cost him his shirt.

isn't he delightful?!

my s/v agr error above is not so delightful but i can only blame myself for that

Amazing! Thanks, he does sound great! I love to hear him pronounce the album titles correctly, ha.

i feel that i can say several of them with confidence now! that's progress.

also, in case anyone cares, the guy at norman records has informed me that a "stickering delay" means that the records will arrive (and presumably be shipped) next week.

OMG OMG that was so great!!! I was about to leave work but I had to stay at my desk and watch the whole thing. It made me want to cry. That was actually some of the most concrete info about PV procedures we have had... Not much of it but still! How interesting that on tgeir first few collabs they tracked piano and drums together first and then added the rest. Ha and then when he talks abt the LPs that were the most his stuff he doesn't even mention Herz and Letzte which are by far the most guitargasmic.

also WKIW D Fichelser!

Also, and this is distressing, I realized I don't have Seligpreisung!

Seriously, his stories about their process were very enlightening!

Loved the bits about consonanten too.

hmmmm. continued "stickering issues" have delayed the delivery of my order from norman records. has anyone ordered from them before? they've answered all my emails (thanks, phil!) but i guess i'm feeling that charming combination of bummed and impatient.

i buy from them quite a bit and they've never let me down yet. pretty trustworthy imo, i don't think they'd be telling you any fibs

ok. that's what i needed to hear. their sales process was very reassuring in general, and they have answered all of my questions, so it's gonna be ok.

patience, patience!

i hope your order arrived

It has been shipped, but hasn't arrived yet. Can't wait!!

I've been thinking of D fichelscher saying "overdubs!" ever since I watched that interview/whatever that was.

just ordered these as well! excited!

Norman Records are great and very trustworthy.

my records are here! i'm going to make dinner and listen to one, not sure which one!!

:D

I've been listening to the Popol Vuh Werner Herzog box set on and off over a few months. That is just some intense music.

this man is not afraid of cymbals

Floor Tom is die Konsonanten, cymbal is der Vowel!

""ohn Weinzierl, good looking guy, strong, vital"

Oops, John Weinzierl...

Can't front, I will always get a little creeped out when Germans talk abt vitality/mountaineering/fresh clean air. Make exception for Danny tho.

vitality/mountaineering/fresh clean air
three great things, what are you talking about!?

i am on a total d fichelscher kick atm

Oh it's just that unfortunate link the early 20c proto nazis forged between health regimens and anti semitism.

"Hey I'm in an outdoor singing society too!"

*winks ominously*

But that's why German hippies had to go SO FAR OUT. A lot of ghosts to chase off!

oh well yeah on second thought i guess that's pretty gross
but those things are great on their own, minus the association

i keep thinking about how d fichelscher showed up at a music festival with his bongos and wound up being an essential part of ADII and PV. that's pretty amazing.

Shit I gotta get some bongos ASAP.

I guess I would also have to be willing to leave the house with them though ....

ADII are so fkin wonderful

Is it yeti and carnival he is on or carnival and wolf city?

the latter

maybe next year i will be d fichelscher for halloween and i will be able to bring my bongos and change my life
there's a goal

Sounds like a good goal all around.

I need to do that this year. Right now. Halloween might even be too late.
