I went on a mad spree this afternoon with my Christmas bonus money and picked up an import copy of 'Bright Like Neon Love' purely because of what I'd read on this thread - which I only read because I liked the name - and it sounds fucking outstanding.

Thanks everybody.

I'm sure that if can just stroll into a record store in London and pick up a copy off the shelf, then somebody - Beggars Banquet maybe? - must have signed it up and are preparing to push it with a 'proper' release sometime in the new year?

i bought myself bright like neon love for christmas a couple of weeks ago too, i've been giving it a thrashing, especially at my clothes shop job, i'm convinced it's making my customers spend up. i think i'll have to ration myself now though or i might get sick of it. it is a great album i think, i love the gradual change of pace from start to finish.

also good in this vein if not quite as fantastic is the two EPs by the Presets, who are Cut Copy labelmates. i lurve 'girl and the sea'..

The Presets were really bad when I saw them live, but I'm willing to believe the record is better. Especiallu if they're on Modular.

first Presets EP was pretty disappointing except the last track which is like the gothtacular dancefloor killer my teens wish they'd gone out on

I now have mp3s of all the remixes if anyone else wants them...

have you got Hunder Twasser or the remixes they've done of other people question mark question mark exclamation mark

rock.96@gmail.com (Remixes *by* Cut Copy only please, "no" to 'The Light Brigade', which I have). Thanks.

I'm glad this got resurrected tho', because I listened to the album again last night, and I'm still in love with its magic.

― Captain GRRRios' Giggletits (Barima), Thursday, 6 January 2005 16:58 (nineteen years ago) link

Oh, I just have the 12" remixes, sorry to confuse.

― C0l1n B--KETT, Thursday, 6 January 2005 17:23 (nineteen years ago) link

(i.e. the Zongiman, !!! and Chromeo mixes of "Future" and the Kingroc "Saturdays" mix)

― C0l1n B--KETT, Thursday, 6 January 2005 17:25 (nineteen years ago) link

If the Kingroc mix is any good, send it over! I'm debating whether to delete all the Future mixes off my iTunes, tho'.

cut copy's getting an official UK release on Modular UK early this year......hopefully bust on through to a whole new bunch of people

Swank, I can vote for it on my '05 P&J instead

one month passes...

Live at Cargo next Tuesday with Wolfmother! Dan and the boys RIGHT! HERE! IN LONDON! WHO'S WITH ME?

― BARMS, Friday, 4 March 2005 11:15 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm against you.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 4 March 2005 11:43 (nineteen years ago) link

i can do this i think

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Friday, 4 March 2005 11:48 (nineteen years ago) link

Rev up the Mystery Machine, Scoob.

― BARMS, Friday, 4 March 2005 11:54 (nineteen years ago) link

Bollocks, I'll be working.

― James Mitchell (James Mitchell), Friday, 4 March 2005 15:31 (nineteen years ago) link

Steve, please do come. It's well cheap and you can meet my new "acquaintance". 7-12, first band onstage at 8.30. Apparently, they are good live.

'Saturdays' is out March 14 in the UK, and I'll make a far bigger effort to chart that than Annie.

― BARMS, Saturday, 5 March 2005 17:25 (nineteen years ago) link

Their also playing a few shows in the USA this month!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Saturday, 5 March 2005 22:18 (nineteen years ago) link

is he touring with a band or what?

― cutty (mcutt), Saturday, 5 March 2005 23:40 (nineteen years ago) link

Cut Copy = four-piece band these days

― kit brash (kit brash), Sunday, 6 March 2005 04:03 (nineteen years ago) link

Steve, see above: first band onstage at 8.30. The fucking football, man? Anyway, I thought you spoke to Cargo yesterday, Wolfmother are the headliners, so I guess Dan and co. are on first? Just meet us at the tube and we'll find a bar to watch it in for a bit.

― BARMS, Tuesday, 8 March 2005 10:39 (nineteen years ago) link

actually = three piece band these days

― cutty (mcutt), Sunday, 13 March 2005 07:28 (nineteen years ago) link

So, cut copy then.

A sexier, skinny, indie-looking boy than you'll ever be.

― BARMS, Tuesday, 15 March 2005 14:34 (nineteen years ago) link

I am too old to be an indie boy these days, sexy or otherwise. He can have my crown, and if he's skinnier than I am, the contents of my fridge too.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:25 (nineteen years ago) link

THIS HEART IS BREAKING

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:26 (nineteen years ago) link

Really, it's OK.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:29 (nineteen years ago) link

how well stocked IS your fridge tho?

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:32 (nineteen years ago) link

Well, right now I have some humous, some salad, some Jackhammer (or whatever it's called) Scandinavian pretend Swiss cheese, milk, half a packet of fresh tortellini, some fancy pesto and various condiments. Not a great haul, I admit, but he can have my flatmate's stuff too - she's got loads of fancy shit.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:35 (nineteen years ago) link

I forgot the asparagus tips.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:36 (nineteen years ago) link

indie boy

This is how I'm going to lose all my ILM friends - because they can't read:

indie-looking boy

― Deerninja B4rim4, Plus-Tech Whizz Kid (Barima), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 18:02 (nineteen years ago) link

I'd like the fridge contents though before we start fighting.

― Deerninja B4rim4, Plus-Tech Whizz Kid (Barima), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 18:02 (nineteen years ago) link

I read it as "indie-looking boy" ok. I just thought I'd deliberately misrepresent you.

Not that there's much difference between the two in most people's eyes. You look indie = you are indie = cut copy are indie.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 18:06 (nineteen years ago) link

I just thought I'd deliberately misrepresent you.

Yeah, there's a novelty!

PS. You = indie.

― Deerninja B4rim4, Plus-Tech Whizz Kid (Barima), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 18:20 (nineteen years ago) link

That's not important. Are they indie hipsters?

― Stupornaut (natepatrin), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 18:21 (nineteen years ago) link

If I am indie then so is Dan Whitford. I'm fine with that. I don't think I'd ever make an indie song as bad as 'The Twilight' though.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 19:10 (nineteen years ago) link

live tonite at tribeca w/ wolfmother

― phil-two (phil-two), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 19:27 (nineteen years ago) link

Cut Copy are indie, at least they are live. Good though. But they should take Cassius on the road to immediately remix the music as they perform it.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 23:03 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm very excited to see them in LA next week.

Tim, have you been to Brains? They canceled the L.A. one a while ago, and I'm very jealous.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 23:07 (nineteen years ago) link

"Tim, have you been to Brains? They canceled the L.A. one a while ago, and I'm very jealous."

??? I don't understand.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 23:12 (nineteen years ago) link

Tim, while other people have your attention, and we're talking abt indie dance, have you heard the out hud album? i have a feeling you'd like at least some of it.

― jermaine (jnoble), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 23:17 (nineteen years ago) link

xpost
Tim, the Avalanches wild soca DJ party tour they did last month in Australia??? Maybe it was when you were in Erp?

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 23:23 (nineteen years ago) link

0h yeah they used to do this quite a bit and I always always missed it! It was at St Jeromes - a cafe/bar that opened about a year ago and went from totally chic and hip and secret to massively overexposed and overcrowded within about four months (this is a particularly Melbourne syndrome), so I'm not sure if they'll do any more.

I always wanted to go but somehow it never worked out.

Re: Out Hud, I haven't heard it. Generally speaking I'm like an angel of death that passes over the doors of indie-dance until someone draws my attention specifically to a particular example.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 23:26 (nineteen years ago) link

Tim, I really like the new Out Hud, it's indie dance but without the hangups (i.e. it doesn't sound like they're saying "we're a real band" at all). It sounds to me like a house-ified Tom Tom Club. I find it far more "danceable" than most DFA stuff. Check out "It's For You" and "One Life to Leave."

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 23:31 (nineteen years ago) link

Will do!

I think there's still a lot of scope for those sorts of acts to venture out further beyond The Rapture's "I Need Your Love". Although maybe that's what remixes are for, I dunno.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 23:39 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm hoping that they all venture out further a la New Order in the mid-80s!
