I spent a month hanging out with Sharp while in college, part of Oberlin's "winter term" thing where you get credit for doing a project. I didn't really do any work, just hung out, watched him work, talked trash about other downtown types, met Melvin Gibbs and Craig Flanagan. I find the process and theory behind some of his stuff more interesting than the music at times, not as into the bluesy stuff, but some of it, especially some of the earlier bigger band stuff really kicks ass. And he's great live.

a lot of stuff on his zoar label is worth checking out, even if it's not all great.

sanskrit, Wednesday, 29 August 2007 14:57 (eighteen years ago)

Elliott is a particularly cool guy & his fibonacci tunings for guitar solo are great. Definitely up for recommendations on his other stuff because he has simply too many records.

Thanks for that Dalaba link.

Milton Parker, Wednesday, 29 August 2007 18:28 (eighteen years ago)

he went to bard. before my time, of course.

True or False, Elliot Sharp and Chevy Chase were in a band together?

dan selzer, Wednesday, 29 August 2007 20:18 (eighteen years ago)

false, ronald "chevy" chase graduated long before sharp.

Crain, Speed + Heater + two more, one of the extra songs - "The Fuse" - features our pal Drew Daniel on vocals!!!!

wrt Elliott Sharp: I liked "Semantics" a lot.

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Thursday, 30 August 2007 04:56 (eighteen years ago)

"group"

am0n, Thursday, 30 August 2007 05:11 (eighteen years ago)

ha. you assmunches forgot to mention that i spelled it wrong too.

jaxon, Thursday, 30 August 2007 05:32 (eighteen years ago)

and that i used a retarded word like drill n bass

jaxon, Thursday, 30 August 2007 05:33 (eighteen years ago)

to make up for it, here's Felix Kubin's "The Tetchy Teenage Tapes of..."
http://www.sendspace.com/file/96ch5k

imagine if gary wilson was a sprocket NDW dork instead of a steely dan sleeze. really fucked stiff synth and drum machine stuff.

jaxon, Thursday, 30 August 2007 06:47 (eighteen years ago)

that's my favorite felix kubin record

is that the CD or LP version? track listing is almost 50% different between versions

Milton Parker, Thursday, 30 August 2007 19:03 (eighteen years ago)

i dunno. i saw the LP at the store last week and listened to it, but didn't feel the need to buy it, so slsk to the rescue.

What about? 2:13
Squeaky Noise 0:25
Qualität des Straates 3:23
Mono Vomit 2:01

jaxon, Thursday, 30 August 2007 19:08 (eighteen years ago)

i've actually never heard his other stuff, what's it like?

jaxon, Thursday, 30 August 2007 19:10 (eighteen years ago)

my take is that he could be famous if he wanted to be, he puts all his best pop songs on 7" singles with pressings of 500 and then fills his CDs with really strange things -- I am a fan of that approach but if he just put out that one best-of he'd be international

felix is a friend so this is just a mix, anything with his name on it is worth getting

(by 'getting' I mean purchasing through the use of money)

Milton Parker, Thursday, 30 August 2007 19:29 (eighteen years ago)

i didn't think that teen tapes thing was available anymore, thus why i put it up.

jaxon, Thursday, 30 August 2007 19:42 (eighteen years ago)

it's cool, I think his music should get out more. if professionals are jocking Dan Deacon then people should definitely be propagating Felix (though he's less on the geek plane than the mutant german Schnitzler / Tietchens one)

Milton Parker, Thursday, 30 August 2007 19:58 (eighteen years ago)

I had heard of FK thru 20jazzfunkgreats, they love that guy

dmr, Thursday, 30 August 2007 20:06 (eighteen years ago)

Could anyone upload the superpitchr remix of difference it makes, pretty please?

BleepBot, Thursday, 30 August 2007 20:33 (eighteen years ago)

yay felix kubin!

Dominique, Thursday, 30 August 2007 21:50 (eighteen years ago)

the five peter gabriel tracks released after 'So' that don't hurt my feelings

Darkness (from 'Up')
Digging In The Dirt (from 'Us')
Bashi-Bazouk (from 'Digging In The Dirt' single)
My Head Sounds Like That (from 'Up')
Downside-Up (from 'Ovo', Elizabeth Frazier, vocals)

Milton Parker, Thursday, 30 August 2007 22:19 (eighteen years ago)

for god's sake don't even download that if you haven't heard gabriel 1976-1982, that's only for people who are curious but afraid that they're curious

Milton Parker, Thursday, 30 August 2007 22:22 (eighteen years ago)

rad thx milty!

chaki, Thursday, 30 August 2007 22:32 (eighteen years ago)

Milton, any chance you could up "Therapy/Growth" (I'm assuming from your posts on the Dolby thread that you have it).

Jon Lewis, Thursday, 30 August 2007 22:33 (eighteen years ago)

if Burial sounded anything like those Venetian Snares sabbath cuts, i might actually like it.

jaxon, Thursday, 30 August 2007 22:40 (eighteen years ago)

i missed felix kubin when he played here and gave a workshop this summer :(

s1ocki, Thursday, 30 August 2007 22:41 (eighteen years ago)

chaki, Thursday, 30 August 2007 23:32 (eighteen years ago)

xpost it's one track from disc 1 of the remastered 'exposure', the original 1979 mix

sorry if I misunderstood you sanskrit, ethics are sketchy on this thread but my posts are all self-made comps / singles from albums / out of print etc., this thread has inspired more purchases than any other thread on ILM for me etc., one last one for now and I'll shut up
