sounds of SANTANA vol. LVCMXXXXXIVIII

must be me.

that's pretty much it. first song on side one is catchy as hell though. when in march is that show?

and now a lot of brecht/weil (2 threepenny's and mahogany) whoever got the internets all hopped up on brecht/weil is in the right sort of thinking. havent listened to this stuff in ages.

forbidden planet ost
john carpenter - dark star
vangelis - earth
yellowman - nobody move, nobody get hurt
common sense - voices inside my head
pieces of a dream - mt. airy groove
jimmy cliff - unlimited

have any of you guys heard that forbidden planet? early electronic music made on circuit boards by Louis and Bebe Barron. sounds a lot like the Delia Derbyshire stuff.

love this track

the guy played me another one but it was more regular disco without the spacey whooshes

but still pretty good

I think it was Just Can't Help Myself

i think that might be stratos in the background

these new records from c.v. and t.z. ... intriguing. the last c.v. i heard was boring balladry. t.z. has been in similar protesty lands... maybe not as boring... but both these records are really pretty good. (in way different ways.)

and YES, "The Abominable" is about the abominable snowman. what of it?

It's definitely one of the most amazing mp3 blogs out there though. Really up a certain alley that I'm totally into.

xpost at dan, i wonder how many re-issue labels are inpired by or skrew-id by the share blogs. i've often wondered how Radioactives koffers are these days?

right now: queen "best friend"

my comment: "'oooooh you make me live' (sung) are those the words? why do i even know the words? you know this song is pretty amazing. everyone should be embarassed that it exists, yet ... noone is. and almost for good reason"

maybe im not being decent.

now its digable planets

though i might have to call "living on my own" a pile of crap.

i dont understand how people can throw knives at queen, but like stuff like journey. or def leopard.

somehow after a couple queen numbers his shuffle has moved onto a weird obsession with the crappy band songs from the official release of "the basement tapes" ... go back to the queen, machine

or im putting kim fowley back on.

if it doesn't screw with the negotiations, no reason not to send him a polite advance message that you're already hoping for reissues... I'm definitely mixed about mp3 blogs, the idea that out of print albums are fair game definitely diffuses the incentive for anyone to reissue physical copies, all I can say is there are still maniacs there to invest when someone does, I bought the Cluster reissues on Water even though I already owned the Sky CDs just because they looked so fantastic, I am a sucker

well... gosh

x-post

im just going to sit here and think about brian mey's hair for a little while....

a lot of music critics for one. I think Queen really give diehard rockists fits, because it's very tough to deny they were a good rock band, yet they're so completely not cooperating with any notions of what's supposed to be cool -- EVEN WHEN THEY TRIED. When they did disco or punk or blues or whatever, it still just sounded like Queen. "Fun It"? Nobody played music like that except them. "Sheer Heart Attack" is maybe the proggiest punk song ever and it so completely rocks that I can't go on anymore.

ennio morricone - 'white dog' ost
faron young - greatest hits
cage/camu - nighthawks

I had some good connections to try to reach him but never heard back. I still hope. I try not to let the idea that something's been shared online stop us from pursuing a project, but it depends how obscure something is. Of course any music deserves decent treatment and artists paid and whatnot, but with some of this stuff, if a big blog posts an entire record (or discography) and the 20 people who would be excited get it, by the time it comes out legit, it may feel like yesterday's news. Whereas if you do it legit first, maybe those 20 people would get excited enough to help spread the word?

I've tended to talk about too much in advance, I hate to have to put my foot in my mouth so I'm avoiding asking people to take down stuff that I'd like to release, only when I'm pretty confident it's going to happen.

oh, wait a minute -- reissue as downloads?

Yeah. I think it's how everything's going to be soon enough. I'm just getting tired of the idea of us putting out CDs, maybe making our money back(especially since some of these "releases" are REALLY obscure, everybody's just going to share them online anyway, then you're stuck with another physical object that's just going to go out of print and end up on ebay with the original records. Just so everyone can buy the CDs, put them on their computer and listen on their iPods...Things like Apple's iTV and the Squeezebox are going to take over very soon and I think its worth making the music available in a legit way.
