New from the DFA...

why is buying the bundle of 3 bms singles more expensive than buying 3 individual singles?
shit is awesome, anyway.

so great that all the new 12"s are only $8- is this actually a new thing or do i just have a terrible memory?

really into that walter jones. also looking forward to altair's stuff!

walter jones tracks are great. he's super humble.

still hard to belive that's him and not a woman singing

ok, nm. think he's singing on 'i'll keep on loving you' and there's a girl singing on 'living w/o your love'

new justin miller mix up on warm blog has a super-tight edit of rose royce's 'Every Way But Loose'. tip!

Walter Jones 12" is ridiculously good. when DFA get it right, they get it right.

just came back from hearing justin and jacques (and lovefingers) dj at what used to be a sex club while dancing on the bottom of what used to be a small pool. I left early because I'm old, but it was pretty cool, even though I thought the false floor on the bottom of the pool above the lights seemed like it might let me fall through at any moment.

aw was that the galaxie thing? i didnt hear abt it till 2 late :/

yup.

totally jeal

"Walter Jones 12" is ridiculously good. when DFA get it right, they get it right."

YES. interesting to see who ends up remixing this too

It looks like the 12"s don't come with the posters unless you buy as a bundle, and if you buy them together you get them all at once instead of on their release dates. LOVING this album, especially "World Eater."

Absolutely loving that Justin Miller DFA mix posted upthread.

sooooooooooo jeal

im late on this but that tiedye remix of dj kaos - must have listened 20 times yesterday - going up against that today - chances are good i think

Yeah what exactly is the status of the Six Finger Satellite reissues? Did I miss them or is this project still bubbling away in the DFA lab? I mean I have the originals... but the kids don't.

woolfy lp and 2nd BMS 12" now up on emusic...

If I don't find out the name of the song being played at 56:00 - 58:40 of that Justin Miller DFA mix, then I will be totally depressed forever. HELP!

go here and pick that show out of the pull-down menu

full track list is in there

it's between but is not either the plez nor shit robot (of course that's assuming the t/l is in order) so i'm still in the dark

Found it! It is called "Simple Things (Work It Out) (Serge Santiago Remix)" by Shit Robot and it will be released on July 14th. Awesome!

ugh so is there any reason that dfa is re-releasing this woolfy album from two years ago with 2 fewer original tracks (replaced by remixes)? are these remixes worth it, did they re-record things or what?

if not, laaame. the album never did much for me the first time around, not sure it deserves another airing

Really, really feeling the Black Meteoric Star. Way more than expected (although I'm not sure why, I really liked the D and G album). Especially love "Death Tunnel", "Dominatron", "Dreamcatcher", and "Anthem".

new Holy Ghost! single "I Will Come Back" is great, possibly better than "Hold On"

when is it released?

is it the one with michael mcdonald?

Wait a second. HG's single is being released by Mountain Dew? WTF?

Black Meteoric Star album is FANTASTIC. It's like the missing link between Orbital and krautrock, just so WARM and fuzzy and oh the textures, the sonic textures. It's full of wub and I love it.

is his stuff with Delia Gonzales like this? Coz in that case, I need to get some of that.

That's Tangerine Dreamy minimalist synthy stuff, different but still very good.

Ok, that pushes my buttons! Will check it out.

if u dig the bms, definitely chck out his petar dundov remix from earlier in the year

and yes the delia and gavin stuff is so so great

"I Will Come Back" available here (by permission of Holy Ghost!)

as posted on the DFA forum:
"yeah, we got a very small run of white labels today and we're going to give a handful to one of our favorite record stores in NYC to give away. We're also doing a limited run of full artwork 12"s beautifully designed by DFA art wiz Michael Vadino, the ENTIRE run of which will be given away too (just have to figure out how). That's a couple weeks away though.

And we got killer remixes from DJ Mehdi and Classixx - did I mention that? "

OK, I no longer understand genres at all, because that Petar Dundov remix thingey, to my ears, that is just straight up dronerock. A wonderful thing indeed.

haha mountain dew records releases the best nudisco track of the year

just listening to it now but uh this is great news -- u mean folks can get paid to make music again??

I'm sure Mt. Dew cares very deeply about the careers of its artists. Forget major labels! I can't wait for that album to drop on Wonder Bread Recordings. Get paid!

who cares if mt dew cares about my career as an artist? just tryin to pay some rent bro

lol @ engaging with you but seriously

altho u might have a point -- this song does include the lyrics "drink mountain dew"

and why not? it is a refreshing drink that exhilarates and quenches with its one-of-a-kind great taste®

Does anyone know if Dr. Pepper needs some acid house joints? Seriously, I need a new car.

"which track is that?"

vahid - check it:

Green Label Sound woot woot.

just not feeling that holy ghost track. music's kinda generic and vocals kinda bug

yeah i like it ok but its def not as good as 'hold on'

the black meteoric star album is so A+

Ha ha, Lex stay out of my record collection. You'll be liking dronerock next!

the holy ghost! track isn't nu-disco it's straight up synth-pop which is a fine thing but the track, especially the vocal, kind of sucks. i agree with jaxon.
