Haha Contenderizer's are great for a specific Stereolab era, but it's kind funny how you can see different time frames in here!

Ha, no, Contenderizer, yours don't seem to go that far back. It was mostly just that I saw "Counterphase" and that seemed like it would totally be a Peng!-era track. (I'm not certain it wasn't.)

nabisco, Wednesday, 13 August 2008 23:43 (fifteen years ago) link

contenderizer's are very "dots and loops" (opinions4u: the best stereolab era)

moonship journey to baja, Thursday, 14 August 2008 03:49 (fifteen years ago) link

d&l is sounding fantastic tonight. i thought it would sound dated because lol 1996 post-rock but it seriously sounds fresher than ever. those drums are so wicked. gonna put on 'fluorescences' next.

strgn, Thursday, 14 August 2008 04:36 (fifteen years ago) link

D&L is as superb now as it was 10 years ago. Proto-nu-lab.

I miss the electronic current in that album, and longer works like Refeactions, which is spellbinding.

Adorno Disco

^
lol

Read recently that Ernst Bloch, who was altogether more cheery than Adorno, accused Teddy, whose Mandarin contempt for pop culture, and taste for the high life, sat oddly with his Marxism of residing in 'The Grand Hotel Abyss' - which would be a great 'lab title

Long ago there was a message board on the Stereolab website where someone came up with "ERECTRO - he held my balls in his iron grip."

Maltodextrin, Monday, 18 August 2008 07:09 (fifteen years ago) link

I can imagine Adorno-inspired Stereolab track titles but I don't know if they'd mention him directly. Probably something like "Negative Dialectrick" or "The New Categorical Imperative".

s-lab never outright named their songs after krautrock tracks, did they?

tanuki, Sunday, 8 April 2012 17:44 (twelve years ago) link

no, just lifted the music verbatim 8) (those two things i mentioned being probably the most blatant, not that i knew it at the time)

and on set lists they did used to use the band names as song titles (NEU, CANNED HEAT, POP VUH etc)
