C&C remix of 3xc3pt3r on the way...

Fox Force Five Punchline (sexyDancer), Friday, 27 February 2009 19:28 (fifteen years ago) link

np "AB/7A". chris carter is the fucking man

rio (r1o natsume), Friday, 6 March 2009 00:39 (fifteen years ago) link

Someone please send a link to some of her porns?

Nate Carson, Friday, 6 March 2009 04:48 (fifteen years ago) link

You sure this isn't a thread about the album where Squeeze tried to sound like Paul Young for one album? :)

I've always thought October Love Song was fantastic. I'm puzzled as to why I'm not more familiar with the rest of their career by now. It seems like they kindof get overlooked in post-punk circles.

maybe because they have nothing to do with "post-punk"

rio (r1o natsume), Friday, 6 March 2009 19:59 (fifteen years ago) link

depends how you're willing to define post-punk, but no, I don't think they're generally overlooked.

Andrew Weatherall included them on 9 O'clock Drop, a comp that was pretty influential in the more recent "post-punk" revival, and they generally rate very high in techno, electro and industrial circles.

C&C remix of 3xc3pt3r on the way...

just read that it's a remix of "shots ring", my favourite song from debt dept. definitely excited to hear this. when is it coming out?

rio (r1o natsume), Sunday, 29 March 2009 21:37 (fifteen years ago) link

coming out on RVNG (see last para). with jim thirwell remix too!

From the "Bimble Rules" thread:

his indifference towards chris & cosey is frankly unforgivable, but otherwise he seems like a dude with excellent taste

I'll have you know I was perturbed by this and I'm trying to make up for it now. I've got Heartbeat & Trance downloaded and am listening now. Thank you.

chris carter - the space between is so fucking good. someone needs to reissue this album on vinyl so i can play "solidit" out.

rio (r1o natsume), Wednesday, 15 April 2009 22:26 (fifteen years ago) link

there's something so joyous and playful about chris carter's production that wasn't really present in throbbing gristle ("AB/7A" and "walkabout" notwithstanding) and is only barely present in chris and cosey. even the darker more aggressive tracks have this kind of wide-eyed energy.

rio (r1o natsume), Wednesday, 15 April 2009 22:32 (fifteen years ago) link

i think chris carter is one of my all time favourite electronic music producers. he is a god.

funnily enough, i have been thinking the same thing recently. maybe i'll look into it.

absolutely, 100% agree with this statement. definitely, a god.

stirmonster, Wednesday, 15 April 2009 22:58 (fifteen years ago) link

was "electrodub 2" one of the first official 808 jams? i read somewhere he was one of the first in britain to use one

^^^essential reading

rio (r1o natsume), Wednesday, 15 April 2009 23:01 (fifteen years ago) link

i guess "electrodub 2" isn't an 808 since the space between came out in 1980. doesn't sound like the tr-77 (i think?) from the rest of the album

rio (r1o natsume), Wednesday, 15 April 2009 23:04 (fifteen years ago) link

ok so chris carter must've been using a cr-78. i'll shut up now.

"poptone" is also very big

rio (r1o natsume), Wednesday, 15 April 2009 23:06 (fifteen years ago) link

i always say that "dancing ghosts" was the first acid track as it MUST be the first track to use an 808 and a 303. all the way back in '82.

i haven't heard any cti but it sounds like i need that lp.

is the album with coil, monte cazazza, lusmord et al any good?

rio (r1o natsume), Thursday, 16 April 2009 00:57 (fifteen years ago) link

The DS-10 is AWESOME.

dan selzer, Thursday, 16 April 2009 04:18 (fifteen years ago) link

thank you SO much for the heads up on that cti track. this shit needs to be reissued on vinyl IMMEDIATELY

hey stirmonster, apologies if this is an inappropriate question, but about the version of "dancing ghosts" on this record:

http://www.discogs.com/Various-Out-There-A-Thread-Through-Time/release/23149

is it unedited?

a somnambulist in an ambulance (r1o natsume), Wednesday, 20 May 2009 23:31 (fourteen years ago) link

not inappropriate at all. it is unedited. it's exactly the same as the elemental 7 version except that chris carter remastered it.

stirmonster, Thursday, 21 May 2009 00:12 (fourteen years ago) link

ah cheers! will save a fair bit of money on the elemental 7 record - the rest of the comp looks great as well

chris carter reissues look like they are go. will hopefully be out before the end of the year.

stirmonster, Thursday, 6 August 2009 00:13 (fourteen years ago) link

:o
that include The Space Between?

zappi, Thursday, 6 August 2009 01:06 (fourteen years ago) link

If I love love love AB/7A, what's the next Chris Carter track/LP I should check out?

Nate Carson, Thursday, 6 August 2009 01:18 (fourteen years ago) link

The Space Between!

dan selzer, Thursday, 6 August 2009 01:56 (fourteen years ago) link

that include The Space Between?

the plan is to release a 4 track 10" of tracks from the space between. if that sells enough to break even there might be a second volume. there will also (hopefully) be a 12" of moonlight from mondo beat with a remix on the other side and a 10" of tg's AB/7A with a remix on the other side.

stirmonster, Thursday, 6 August 2009 02:06 (fourteen years ago) link

this is great news.

thats a slightly modified version of the original cover to the CD I have, which I used to stare out for hours in high school trying to figure out exactly what was going on.

dan selzer, Sunday, 25 October 2009 12:58 (fourteen years ago) link

any more news on the reissues stirmonster?

rio (sean), Sunday, 25 October 2009 13:45 (fourteen years ago) link

if you fully open the youtube link, you get the info -

From the Optimo Music 12" - Chris Carter - The Spaces Between (OM 008), a 6 track EP of tracks from Chris Carter. 5 of the tracks originally appeared on "The Space Between" cassette, released on industrial Records in 1980 and were subsequently reissued on CD in 1991. This will be the first time they have appeared on vinyl. There is a bonus sixth track, "Climbing" that only previously appeared on the 1981 "Stabmental" tape compilation compiled by Geoff Rushton, later of Coil. All tracks were remastered by Chris Carter in 2009. Scheduled for release on Optimo Music late 2009 / early 2010.

Do you have anything to do with this one Stirmonster? or is this separate from the 6 track ep thing you were talking about a while back?

Had the Coil tapes not been 'baked' and transferred (and thus not actually useable as media any more)? IRDK but that was my understanding. Maybe people were still upset.

Imago - try Re-Education Through Labour, Driving Blind & CC's The Space Between album.

SQUIRREL MEAT!! (Capitaine Jay Vee), Thursday, 9 June 2022 18:13 (one year ago) link

Thanks! I'm still sad that there was no demand to see them play in the UK in this era and they only ever played North America or mainland Europe.

It felt like every second gig i went to back then there was some "shock / gore" footage being shown but i'm still a little surprised they were rocking the texas chainsaw massacre footage.

i'd love to know what was in CC's flightcase.
