Zombi: RFI

Nah, I'm sure they listened to at least one or two songs. However, being totally unfamiliar with anything referenced within (Goblin, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, etc.) - they just went for the only vaguely proggy sounding reference they could think of.

..Which sound fuck all like Zombi..

OK, really loving the freebie track from that Majeure album...
http://temporaryresidence.com/descriptions/trr145.php

I recommend it

love the steve moore album so much

Well, I'm listening to Henge right now. It seems a lot more PROOOGGGGG than the Majeure album so far. But I'm not out of the introduction yet.

well of course it's gonna be prog!

did you play the rest of it? and did you try Vaalbara?

lol u guys, this isn't electronic music or metal

it's fucking PROG

(I have no problem with this. album is rad so far.)

who said it was electronic/metal? (and who denied it was prog?)

the people who were selling me on this

(they didn't deny it being prog, I don't think prog was ever mentioned)

Paterra drums on and produced Gil Mantera's Party Dream's (now going as GMPD) most recent album, Dreamscape. I used to be really into Gil Mantera but I feared that their schtick would have gotten old. I guess they did too because it sounds just different enough to be pretty good.

Majeure record is pretty tight.

yep

I just got it today, hard to keep track of what those dudes are up to. On first blush I prefer this to the Henge.

holy shit this majeure record is good

Yeah it's pretty solid. I prefer the Steve Moore album more though

MAJEURE "Timespan Remixes"

http://temporaryresidence.com/images/covers/trr185.jpg

Timespan Remixes is exactly what the title implies: The entire debut album by Majeure (aka A.E. Paterra of sci-fi rock luminaries Zombi), remixed by three of his friends and favorite producers. Zombi co-conspirator Steve Moore expands on the opening minutes of "Timespan" to give it an ominous John Carpenter dread. Jesu mastermind Justin K Broadrick transforms "Teleforce" into a 10-minute vertigo-inducing shoegaze epic. Renowned French producer Black Strobe closes out the album with a staggering 20-minute reinvention of "The Dresden Codex," a white-hot house banger that scorches straight away before disintegrating into an ambient heap of sci-fi ash. Includes a download coupon for free MP3 versions of the album.

THIS VINYL-ONLY RELEASE IS STRICTLY LIMITED TO 500 COPIES.

TRACK LISTING
1. Timespan (Steve Moore Remix)
2. Teleforce (Justin K Broadrick Remix)
3. The Dresden Codex (Black Strobe Remix)

I'm a bit excited to hear these. And I haven't heard anything from Black Strobe for a few years.

this is on Temporary Residence

It's in the mail! Looking forward to this one.

dresden codex is a facemelter already, interested to hear this

I couldnt wait for this and bagged the last copy at Juno.

It's great.

Timespan is the sound of Snake Pliskin gliding into new york.

Teleforce has that de-tuned shoegaze/MBV drone

I listened to the Dresden codex yesterday whilst napping. it's a dark monster.

I was pleasantly surprised by the Black Strobe mix after hearing that once Smagghe had left they (he) had gone downhill fast.

Will look out for the original album.

but f**k this 500 copies shit...

man i like zombi, but more as a reference point than as a thing. like, i'm gonna enjoy moroder or carpenter or goblin more. hell, i enjoy the early black devil disco club stuff a LOT more. and half the crap what comes out on italians do it better. not that i don't enhoy sombi, but...

plus when you factor in the obscurantist collector-bait bullshit...

Whatever. "Night Rhythms" off Surface to Air is as good as anything you could say they're ripping off.

Holy shit this Justin Broadrick remix of Teleforce!

Timespan remixes is a fucking great record.

also in the Goblin-worship vein, Umberto is totally incredible

No doubt, 'From the Grave' is tight. The Child....

seriously killin me today - I loved the From the Grave but the new one, Prophecy of the Black Widow, is just unbelievable

Oh shit there's another one out there? I must have it.

Bumping because Umberto's Prophecy of the Black Widow is a top 10 of 2010 album. Fucking A. What a record.

new Steve Moore album Primitive Neural Pathways streaming here:
http://www.self-titledmag.com/home/2010/11/18/test-pressing-stream-steve-moores-limited-primitive-neural-pathways-lp/

just got the new Steve Moore lp and its really good!

want but don't want the vinyl, i wish there was some indication of whether a digital version is forthcoming..

agreed.

even with the vinyl releases, I usually dub it to .mp3 and file away the record forevermore.

I emailed Static Caravan.

Very probably and very soon with luck was the answer.

That probably means a no

ha

SC are usually pretty good about their digital releases, however they frequently appear many months after the vinyl

primitive neural pathways now out on digital, yay

everything this guy touches is gold imo

^ Real talk

Really looking forward to the new album, out May 10th

finally. anyone else feeling the Dylan Ettinger releases?

Love the new album, by the way. Easily their best work, in my opinion, not to mention their boldest.

Thought Dylan Ettinger's "New Age Outlaws" last year was great.

I heard the 'Director's Cut', not what I expected given the descriptions, but I still enjoyed it. What's his connection to the Zombi crew?

i just want to go on record saying that the spirit animal album cover is one of my favorite of all time

cosign

PNP is wayyy more mellow (PINA moves) than the henge

dig it tho
