what about ibb "apache" beat?

― PARTYMAN (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 12:30 (nineteen years ago)

thanks for coming, dan!

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 12:56 (nineteen years ago)

dan,

is this ike yard record so good because the very humanity of the musicians is inherent to the sounds the crank technology to sculpt or is it just the fact that the records they made are the construction from human dreams tempered by an inescapable, empirical reality?

also, should i quit talking/thinking about it with the above horsepoop and get down to brass tacks?

yar Ike Yard
no clue what they looka like tho from a photos

― Alicia Titsovich (sexyDancer), Thursday, 24 August 2006 14:23 (nineteen years ago)

true....and kinda awesomer for it

― bb (bbrz), Thursday, 24 August 2006 14:56 (nineteen years ago)

Yes, and yes.

First they look like Joy Division, then they look like SPK, going by the photos.

Thanks to all who came by Dazzle Ships last night. It was especially good when Beppe Loda told Jeremy to stop recording, then turned everything up to 11 and played Vangelis so loud the cops came.

Hi Dan,

Steve Shasta here. Do you happen to have the link to that prank call file directory that had that guy DSP-ing his voice to the record store girl and the electronics store customer service guy?

It goes like "triple double slip with a triple dribble check",

longmont potion castle?

dan, i liked the opera track on blast segueing into vangelis. some girl sitting near us said the cops were at the door but i didnt believe her.

― mr. brojangles (sanskrit), Thursday, 24 August 2006 16:21 (nineteen years ago)

longmont potion castle kind of sucks

I never heard of Longmont Potion Castle but the Music Thing article with "triple flip double check" link has been updated.

They were funny, but no Zip Code Rapists...

two weeks pass...

another Dan Selzer asks!

I need a web designer. I advertised on nyhappenings, myspace and friendster...and got 2 responses...so far.

It's a whole branding/interface/website kind of thing. No programming necessary, as I have a pro-grammer. This could be lucrative and could be cool. Wondering if any of you have friends who are designers. Please send me any suggestions, links etc, and spread the word.

Thanks!

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 17:29 (nineteen years ago)

Dan,

Passing it on

― Really cool, wickedly cool, cooly cool bon apetit! (ex machina), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 17:50 (nineteen years ago)

what r the requirements ^_^ ?

― señor citizen (eman), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 17:57 (nineteen years ago)

dear dan,

maybe ili?

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 18:04 (nineteen years ago)

How do I shot upstart record label specializing in archival (legal) recordings of folk/blues from 60's/70's?

More details available as needed.

― John Justen,a ninja slapboxing fajitas out of J. Casablancas dental dam. (johnju, Wednesday, 13 September 2006 18:15 (nineteen years ago)

jon-thanks

eman-don't want to divulge too much, but I just need some good branding and interface type work for the potential nyhappenings website. No programming skills necessary, but that never hurts. I'm even willing to work with print designers, I'm more into finding someone who can come up with a good aesthethic for it, but sometimes print designers aren't aware of what may not work w/ web, no?

lauren-I didn't know ili is a designer. Where does she work. Did she do pop manifesto?

john-I don't know if I'd recommend it! Take major notice of whether the stuff you want to reissue came out on major labels are not. If they did, forget it, give up now. If you want to talk more, email me off-list.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 19:21 (nineteen years ago)

dan, i sent you an email a while back. i'm gonna re-send it.

― Steve Shasta (Steve Shasta), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 19:24 (nineteen years ago)

Nope. All unreleased, all in only my/our possession. The only released one is Le0 K0ttk3's first album, which my dad put out on his own label, and has never sold the rights to.

I'll stop clogging up yer thread now...xpost

― John Justen,a ninja slapboxing fajitas out of J. Casablancas dental dam. (johnju, Wednesday, 13 September 2006 19:26 (nineteen years ago)

dan, how much work is required for this gig? i do web design (and know code, but would rather not use it). is it something i could do on nights (or when it's slow at work)?

aren't u a designer?

― jaxon (jaxon), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 20:11 (nineteen years ago)

I'm a print designer and hate working on web stuff. See the glorious acute records web site for an example. NEW SITE SOON! for 6 years now.

I don't know how much work it'd be, maybe just some work at the beginning then never again? Probably nights...email me off list and send me some websites/samples/portfolio etc.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

didn't pick them up but saw some good< dupes at the woodside salvation army today, Cafe-Not a Disco Lady, Chic-Dance Dance Dance, Up Front-Infatuation, D-Train-Walk on Buy, 2 bucks a pop, around the corner from Sri Pra Phai...

this reminded me to ask Dan, Renard, and any other Queens residents:

what are the good used record spots in this fine borough?

― mr. brojangles (sanskrit), Sunday, 17 September 2006 00:11 (nineteen years ago)

that woodside salvation army is my only tip. I haven't found anything else, but haven't looked very far.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Sunday, 17 September 2006 00:19 (nineteen years ago)

I've gotten some good stuff at Ditmars Thrift Store (Ditmars + 33rd St). A lot of it is junk but someone keeps dumping dance records there. I got a Villalobos record there for a buck (DJ Minx Walk in the Park remix). and Strafe "Set It Off."

there is a giant thrift store near the Astoria Blvd N stop (under the highway overpass) but it kinda sucks ass. over priced and every interesting looking record turns out to be an empty sleeve.

I haven't really looked that much either though. Whenever I'm in a dollar bin mood I just hit up Ditmars Thrift.

― dmr (Renard), Sunday, 17 September 2006 03:25 (nineteen years ago)

dan, u get my email?

― jaxon (jaxon), Sunday, 17 September 2006 17:12 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, thanks, sorry for not responding, I've been working on Acute things the last few days and waiting to deal w/ the project I mention above soon.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Sunday, 17 September 2006 17:35 (nineteen years ago)

I had to delete my page out of respect to the man.

― m coleman (lovebug starski), Tuesday, 19 September 2006 09:18 (nineteen years ago)

dear mr. selzer,

i'm sure you've been asked this before, but will you change your middle name to "Alka"? i will foot all the legal bills for name-changing, and will pay you an additional $25 US in Hardee's gift certificates.

― latebloomer to kruschev: drink my, my, my ovaltiiiine (latebloomer), Tuesday, 19 September 2006 10:27 (nineteen years ago)

― bb, Monday, 26 March 2007 13:45 (nineteen years ago)

Shit, I KNEW there was something on Wednesday. Ben, I'll see what I can manage on Wed but I have dinner plan already and the thought of Fire Engines 7"s is really alluring....

― Laurel, Monday, 26 March 2007 14:29 (nineteen years ago)

oh, dont worry laurel...i keep missing these dazzleships nights. i had a good time the only time i went and need to revisit it...but the logistics of my week mean far less than cray-z plans on wed.

― Catsupppppppppppppp dude ‫茄蕃‪, Monday, 26 March 2007 16:36 (nineteen years ago)

My fave Desp Bikes is hard to chose...

maybe Natural History, but that was on an LP so I won't play it wed. night.

I Make The Product, Skill, Smokescreen, Don't Back the Front...I don't know, I'm a pretty big fan! There's only a few songs I don't love.
