He's also a lot less cooler as a person than Shadow, after meeting them both repeatedly during my student years.
Wouldn't he have to be at least reasonably charismatic to get all these people to collaborate with him and pay attention? Also, am I the only one who occasionally gets a weird Lavelle vibe off of Pharrell whenever he brags about having his own shoes or talks about hanging out with Nigo?

hey, so uh, i'm interviewing lavelle on assignment. tell me where to start-- i know little about any of this, breaks and trip-hop ain't my deal.
― the table is the table, Tuesday, 5 June 2007 03:14 (seventeen years ago) link
well you could ask him about his approach to remixing the Boredoms, I thought that was a fairly intersting matchup that doesn't get enough love.
Lavelle really opened my eyes some 8 years ago at Apolo Nitsa in Barcelona - taking me with him from Young MC to Incredible Bongo Band to aicd house to thundering techno in the space of 6 hours. I realize that's not so out of the ordinary these days, but at least for me, at that time, it was relevatory.

yeah, he seems to get a lot of hate, but he at least seems to DO a lot of different things, some of which are pretty cool..

I heard "Lonely Souls" for the first time by accident (shuffle) yesterday, and despite Ashcroft it's absolutely superb :-/
i mean that second half just killed me :--/

"psyence fiction" > "third"

Both have pretty great production, Third has much better vocals and lyrics.

James Lavelle was pretty upset at being called that.
― Neil S, Friday, 2 January 2009 20:45 (fifteen years ago) link
i've listened to third maybe ... 50 times this year? or more? and i don't remember any lyrics except the portugese bit about the rule of three.
― moonship journey to baja, Friday, 2 January 2009 20:46 (fifteen years ago) link
I kind of agree, but Portishead lyrics are helped by not being at least in part written by Mad Rick. I would take Gibbons on Third over any of the vocal performances on Psyence Fiction, personally.
