they only just now sent out a big email blast about it so maybe they'll get the $$. I hadn't heard about it until Dan posted. think I might do one of the low levels (like $18 for a 12", not the series subscription)

I finally contributed and think I may be the one who put them over the edge!
― dan selzer, Wednesday, 22 July 2009 03:12 (sixteen years ago)
haha nice! didn't realize they got the goal already. after I got the email this afternoon I looked and it was only at like $900.

haitch, they are doing the old tip-on Folkways covers properly.
― beta blog, Wednesday, 22 July 2009 16:19 (sixteen years ago)
This has probably been answered:
"I'm just waiting for someone to make their career by doing a really killer José González remix, something really thick-sounding and warm, like Junip I guess but obviously with actual beats, warm fat acousticy synths that wash over you, folktronic tracks that set the stage for the bigtime toms, or something."
Serge Santiago did a great edit of this.

Did James Murphy produce that new Black Crowes song?

Who will be the first to remix the Black Crowes?

sounds like some girls/emotional rescue stones. i dig it
― like totally gr80 to the max (jaxon), Friday, 24 July 2009 18:59 (sixteen years ago)
it does sound like emotional rescue, and I oddly I like it. I went with a friend to see the black crowes in high school since he went with me to see Soinc Youth. They played in a old grocery store. I only remember the smoke that you could hardly see through and bad music.
― Jacob Sanders, Friday, 24 July 2009 19:10 (sixteen years ago)
that sounds awesome btw

sounds like a map of Africa cover of a Stones B side.
or what Bobby Gillespie hears in his head when they play him back the latest Primal Scream album.

are you serious? i don't know how anyone can really top the todd terje killing for love remix. the beatfanatic remix on the same release is great too, but trumped by terje. that shit unwinds everyone on the dancefloor.

Jori Hulkkonnen's mix of Crosses fits your description but he had made his career before that mix.

Mizzell that clip is killing me, I've watched it on repeat since you posted it! I fucking love fake "period" music videos, the mix of ugly band, hot chicks is nicely done and gets top marks imo.

^ i dig a lot of the stuff he mentions in that feature. dj overdose and his assorted projects (esp the hasbeens) are definitely worthy of the attention
also the new vibe 1 collection on future times sounds pretty great

how's this phenomenal handclap band?
― moonship journey to baja, Sunday, 16 August 2009 15:24 (sixteen years ago)
I like that track "Baby." It's not very beardo (more like Daptone Records soul revival) but some of the other stuff on their myspace sounds more discoey.

love love lovin the music go music tracks!! ikr just wrote whineys twitter review btw
― max, Monday, 17 August 2009 15:25 (sixteen years ago)
ay yo's, apologies if this is way too off topic for this thread, but i have some writerly advice to ask. i used to write for music magazines and alt-weeklies regularly 10 years or so ago, and i'm dipping my toe back in the pool by writing press releases for a well-known record label. anyway, last night i found a blog post that plagiarizes my most recent release, word-for-word, with a little intro and outro tagged on. should I be flattered or pissed off? should I say something? privately or in public? is this how it's regluarly done in the ol' blogosphere? i've had conflicting answers from some of my friends irl, so i thought i'd come here where there's are larger cluster of, erm, professionals. ;) what should I do?
― mikebee (BATTAGS), Monday, 17 August 2009 18:57 (sixteen years ago)
to be honest, i'm pretty flattered and while i think that said blog is a complete joke after this, i don't feel too compelled to out them or get all righteous about it.
― mikebee (BATTAGS), Monday, 17 August 2009 18:58 (sixteen years ago)
can't imagine why anyone would want to run a blog, where you're writing for pleasure and self indulgence iirc and just regurgitate press releases. I wouldn't bother outing them and just let their cold festering emptiness eat them alive tbh lol.
― ❊❁❄❆❇❃✴❈plaxico❈✴❃❇❆❄❁❊ (I know, right?), Monday, 17 August 2009 19:35 (sixteen years ago)
im not positive about this mike but i think press releases are considered public domain. dunno about the blogosphere but when i was writing press releases as a professional publicist (lol) it wasnt uncommon to see a fair number of phrases and sometimes even whole sentence groups or paragraphs lifted for news articles--i think its bad form on the part of the blog or newspaper because it feels like a dishonest suspension of what should be the relationship btw pr professionals and journalists, but who gives at shit at this point. in any event as a publicist i didnt really care as long as they were writing about my clients; as a writer i might feel a little mad, but given how press releases are used and distributed i cant imagine id care.
― max, Monday, 17 August 2009 21:52 (sixteen years ago)
that's what i figured. i wouldn't have even batted an eyelash if it was a sentence or phrase, but three whole paragraphs lifted verbatim? i was like OH NO U DI INT. i would guess the label is stoked since it's their "propaganda" in full, though. do you guys hear about this sort of thing happening regularly?
― mikebee (BATTAGS), Monday, 17 August 2009 22:51 (sixteen years ago)
I haven't seen it with blogs that I know of, but any website that *sells* music just seems to cut out phrases or entire press releases, it seems.Doing it on a blog is a little funny, cuz it kinda takes away from the whole uh 'blogging' part. It's a step up from just posting mp3s with no text though maybe? I mean in terms of getting information/positive promotional phrases out there... like at least the press release is doing some work/being read right?
