one month passes...

i'm trying to find out who played the piano on the cosmodelica remix of murphy's law.

i'm just finding out that cosmodelica is one colleen murphy, who has what looks like a high-profile radio show. i wonder if she played it. anyone know?

THANK YOU!!!

Assuming that's the same Colleen Murphy who worked regularly with David Mancuso? xps

Yep!

i hope one of these is an extended version of 'shellfish mademoiselle'

Holy shit, that Simulation redo is incredible!

remix album crooked machine out in a few weeks.

dangit now I have to retitle my compilation of the 20-50 minutes per single of crooked mixes

(nb Crooked Man topped 50min of remixes on his own 2016 single Happiness, including a 14-minute "24-inch" version that plays like a classic disco arrangement with natural builds and peaks)


BTW there was a third part to those "live, up a tree in Ibiza" videos, uploaded a week later:

"Crooken Machine" is actually titled "Crooken Madame" so that would be SHELLFISH MADEMOISELLE

winters (josh), Wednesday, 7 April 2021 19:24 (three years ago) link

so, these are all brand new, not previous mixes/versions?

Cocteau Twinks (jed_), Wednesday, 7 April 2021 19:46 (three years ago) link

ta josh!

none of these have the same names as previously-released mixes, and it's very on-brand for Parrot to remix the entire album again.

Narcissus with the RTE concert orchestra

She managed another couple of live TV appearances between lockdowns last year too.

Murphy's Law on the Graham Norton Show:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PYHxliMtWM

Incapable with the Rhythm & Blues Orchestra on Jools Holland's Hootenanny:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87XX0qI5tew

and a cover of Let's Dance, also with the big band and Jools:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjEveAgI6MY

plus an acoustic session / interview for Esquire, with the same guitarist as her at-home acoustic videos, doing the three Roisin Machine songs they did amongst those. which we didn't clock itt!:

i like "assimilation" more than "simulation"! excited for this

ufo, Wednesday, 7 April 2021 20:48 (three years ago) link

same!

Crooked Machine youtube playlist here.

bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 01:43 (two years ago) link

i was kinda underwhelmed by the album after how much i liked "assimilation". certainly not bad or anything just not anything to be excited by either

ufo, Tuesday, 4 May 2021 02:23 (two years ago) link

thanks to the whole st. vincent stuff I had a dream I did an absolutely awful interview with her in which I screwed up to an extent that there was open hostility

like, I’m eating an elephant head (katherine), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 16:52 (two years ago) link

Xpost: ditto “assimilation” was even better than the album version but the rest of the remixes leave me lukewarm. I still think it’s a great remix album but I wouldn’t play it over the original.

✖✖✖ (Moka), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 17:08 (two years ago) link

Kingdom of Machines works in a very different way to KoE. I'd say it's at least as good.

Cocteau Twinks (jed_), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 17:47 (two years ago) link

We Are The Law bears little relation to ML, it's a completely new and great track. I'm a little burnt out on ML tbh.

Cocteau Twinks (jed_), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 17:53 (two years ago) link

new shit coming too:

“I wrote a really great track last week… it’s got fucking oboes on it,” she joyfully exclaims from her Ibiza bolthole, where she’s currently riding out a portion of the pandemic wave. “I said I wouldn’t do disco again, but I couldn’t turn it down. It’s just an amazing arrangement.”

...

“It’s gonna blow your mind,” she purrs. “It’s a whole other world. It’s fuckin’ tops down, LA… bouncing up and down on the cars. Hold tight!”

As well as this top-secret new piece, she’s also been working with production maestro, DJ Koze, on music that’s steadily approaching completion. “The people who’ve heard it are really interested in it, so I think it’s gonna be a bit of a smasher.”

bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 18:37 (two years ago) link

I just want Ruby Blue reissued. Fleece your fans! Release it in 17 different colors. You can't make money on it when it's not for sale.

brotherlovesdub, Tuesday, 4 May 2021 21:40 (two years ago) link

can I hear the track with the fucking oboes now

So who you gonna call? The martini police (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 21:42 (two years ago) link

very much looking forward to the album (?) with dj koze that's on its way

ufo, Wednesday, 5 May 2021 03:35 (two years ago) link

she joyfully exclaims from her Ibiza bolthole

I did not see that word as bolthole on the first pass lol.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 5 May 2021 03:40 (two years ago) link

She did two tracks on the last Koze album, I assume she's just doing a couple of things again

I just want Ruby Blue reissued. Fleece your fans! Release it in 17 different colors. You can't make money on it when it's not for sale.

It's still "in print" digitally via Echo, who otherwise seem to only release physical material for Record Store Day, with BMGCAT instead of ECH cat #s, and then only of things that were on Warner, not Echo or any of their previous owners. Seems unlikely she'd have any sway in getting them to even press up 400 copies on "splatter vinyl" for RSD 2022.

bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 04:09 (two years ago) link

i had to check but last year she mentioned that the dj koze material is her next album that he's producing all of, very exciting

ufo, Wednesday, 5 May 2021 06:15 (two years ago) link

Yeah, interview here:

groovypanda, Wednesday, 5 May 2021 06:19 (two years ago) link

ooh, that sounds great

bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 06:28 (two years ago) link

yo i'm sure everyone is familiar with "the rumble" but just in case...

raw as hell fulton production over which ms. murphy delivers a deep-diver's manifesto / epic poem about love.

the video is just like peak "this is why i can't wait to go clubbing again"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-O5EJJNw9zY

John Cooper of Christian rock band Skillet (map), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 16:55 (two years ago) link

I had no idea about the koze project. That has the potential to be album of the decade.

✖✖✖ (Moka), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 16:59 (two years ago) link

she's so wild about Koze in that interview that I hope Parrot doesn't read it, he'll feel like shit.

Cocteau Twinks (jed_), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 17:12 (two years ago) link

i loved the read on her ex-husband, pretty epic to say "i had to make my own music video because he told me i shouldn't, and by the way, here's his full name."

John Cooper of Christian rock band Skillet (map), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 18:05 (two years ago) link

I hope Parrot doesn't read it, he'll feel like shit.

ha yes, that did read very New Relationship Energy. though she did release three-and-a-half hours of music by Parrot in the last year; I assume he's well aware that she she values him and his work.

bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 21:49 (two years ago) link

yeah it doesn't read negative towards parrot or anything, just that working with koze more is really exciting her because his approach is so different to what she did last with parrot. there are plenty of interviews where she's filled with praise for parrot and sounds just as excited about working with him

ufo, Wednesday, 5 May 2021 22:43 (two years ago) link

Tell me something less.
