Hey, has anyone seen any of the Kryzysztof Kieslowski trilogy films
Three Colours White, Red and Blue. I've only seen Red which was a
truely remarkable film, and heard the soundtrack to Blue is very good
as well, esp the first track which is one of the finest sad & euphoric
pieces of music I've heard since TMC's "Song To The Siren". Worth
searching the world for.

Yes, I've seen Blue and White, and they're damn good! White is my personal
favorite. Blue itself isn't as good, but you're right. The soundtrack is
worth killing 1,000 Pearl Jam and Nirvana fans for (including Chris
Higgins), but then again, what isn't?

I am German ( my address states .de for Deutschland) and was quite surprised

"This Rimy River" is an awesomely well produced book that did indeed
accompany an exhibition in LA from September 13 to November 4, 1994. It
reproduces much of the artwork credited to Vaughan Oliver and v23 from 1988
onwards and contains quotes from many of the artists (mainly 4AD bands,
obviously) who have had work done for them.
Now, this may not be particularly helpful as you're writing from the
States, I guess, but I got my copy from 4AD Mail Order for something like
25 GB pounds. Hopefully someone else will be posting info on availability
in the US.
Oh, and apparently, 4AD is producing a deluxe version to be available later
in the year for nearer the 100 GB pounds mark.
Hope this helps!

I rented Blue and watched it just before I left Texas. It was
great! (Leaving Texas was. ;) ) Blue was OK, I would like to see
White and Red. I don't remember the music offhand, I suppose
it was melancholic like the movie. Interesting story, though.
Julie Binoche (?) is wife of this famous french architect designing
a monument for EC union, family in car accident, husband and daughter
die, Julie sells all, moves into apartment in hobo paris, helps
sex dancer tenant whom others in apartment want to expel, watches
TV and sees them interviewing her dead husband's mistress who is
expecting, takes back villa and moves mistress in, throws herself
back into completing her husband's work.
Definitely not a Hollywood movie. I've heard White and Red are
better.

My favorite lyric of all-time is still:

from "Enter the Exterminator" off of "Nail". (that beats the Insides

Thanks for bringing back my memory for 'ol scraping foetus. My favorite

yes there is an american version of TTW on laserdisc. i have it. very
dissappointing. the transfer is horrible. the opening (left over shots from
Baraka) Yulunga is letterboxed while the rest of the film is not. it's very
grainy. if you haven't seen it..... beware of brendan perry's folk songs
and the annoying interviews (luckily you can program them out on the
laserdisc). otherwise it's a beautifully shot concert film with some
amazing moments.

Actually, he's a composer writing a piece to celebrate EC union - the
unfinished piece is pretty central to the movie and the soundtrack.
Having said that, however, I can't remember the music either...

Actually Larry, if you would have paid attention, his wife writes
his music, and the movie is actually about her struggle to try and finish
the work wihout him, without ruining his reputation. Nuff said.

i just thought this was an interesting note to post.
i went to the TM show in nashville and it also happened that my ex-girlfriend
was there. she and her friends hung around after the show and got to go back-
stage to meet the band. i don't know why she did this, but my ex gave kristin
the journal she had been keeping while we were together and after we broke up.
i never got to read the journal, but i know that after we broke up, she got
kinda hateful for a while (burning all my belongings that were in her
possession, etc). we are friends again now, but i have no idea what was
written in that journal.
so kristin, if you happen to be listening, i'm not all that bad.
love,

Someone on the UK-Indie list posted recently saying that the new album is
called _A_Northern_Soul_ (great name, guys), and due out in the UK on
July 3. It's in the new releases section in the new AP as well, but as
usual, it doesn't list a specific date.

Aw, I like _Spanners_! I heard it last night at a bandmate's house, and

> Unfortunately, the Cranes are working on a new album.
As are the Cocteaus, apparently. (Draw connections where you will.) The
music is completed, and now Liz is doing her thing. They're hoping to
have a new album and two EPs out by the end of 1995. (I'm not holding my

i agree, this is their (his) best release yet! There is just so much

At risk of seeming passe, all of this talk of the music in Kieslowski's
"Three Colours.." trilogy has made me remember a sequence in "Jesus of
Montreal," a film by, I think, Denys Arcand. The film is about the putting
on of a play about the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, and the play
is presented at various locations an and around a certain hillside in
Montreal.
The sequence I am remembering takes place after the crucifixion, in a long
large tunnel - like a disused road tunnel - with light at one end. The
camera is pointing at the end of the tunnel which is out of focus but where
suddenly can be seen Mary Magdalene throwing back the fencing closing off
the tunnel and running towards the camera. The music playing in the
background as this happens is "Pritouritze Planinata" (er, if I remember
the song title correctly), which is one of the songs on the first Bulgarian
Voices record. Quite a sublime sequence!

I haven't seen Blue yet, but I thought White was fucking lame,
particularly the final scene at the prison. As I understand it, Red is
about a woman who runs over a guy's dog and then becomes his best friend,
or some such thing. Does not sound particularly promising.

Wow! I hope it's not contageous.
I've seen all three and find them to be quite good but you have to
like that kind of movie. Kieslowski tries to put a lot of symbolism into
his films and sometimes it works well. I can see how the ending of White
would aggrevate some people but i thought it was appropriate. The ending of
Red is particularly rewarding (or gratuitous, from a grouchy point of view)
for those who have seen all three. Oh yeah, this is a music list AND i
don't remember anything about the music. Sorry.

And if you really really think you want it, 4ad mail order sent me
something say that this was a very very limited edition indeed, so might
get a head start by mailing/calling 4ad and reserve a copy (I seem to
recall that it was possible). The late release is because of "production

The new Labradford album, believe it or not, was recorded over a year ago.
Long before their British tour with Spectrum. It's simply been delayed
forever! But what I gather from Mark and Carter, it should see the light
of day come June. Keep your fingers crossed!

Rex,
Thanks for the information on the DCD TTW laserdisc. I doubt it will
withhold me from buying the LD (I'm a rabbit 4AD collector). However, it
makes me suspicious again about LD's. A couple of years ago I laid hands on
the New Order 'Substance' laserdisc (I'm a rabbit Factory collector too) and
when I played it, on a friends machine, I thought.... my VHS copy looks just
as good! What do you think, do they master LD's from VHS video's?
Oh, and as far as Brendan Perry's folk songs are concerned. He sounds a lot
like Roger Whittaker on those! (check your father's LP collection!).
About the interview bits: how can people who talk so carefully and
academically make such good music!
ONLY JOKING!!!!!

Frank

okay folks....here's the story.
each of the soundtracks to the trois coleurs films were composed by
zbigniew preisner and contain a few pieces from composer van den budenmeyer.
as each film contains recurring themes and symbols, so do the
soundtracks. they repeat and change, sort of like a phillip glass album,
but not really. most of the songs are fairly short as well.
the music is mournful and, at times, cacaphonous. quite good, IMO.
even better is the music to kieslowski's 'the double life of veronique'.
it's gorgeous! ....a great film as well....

Hardly, if they're smart. Get your hands on a good THX laserdisc like
Terminator 2 or Silence of the Lambs and then you'll see the superiority
of the medium. It IS likely that some music LD's use the same VHS
masters, because theatrical feature films are more popular on LD. It is
also improtant to note that LD's have really only come into their own as
a home video medium of choice since about 1990-91, so depending on how
long ago you saw that New Order disc, it's possible most LD's at that
time weren't terribly good.
These days, LD's are doing for movies what CD's have done for music.
Movies thought lost to time are being released for the first time in
ages, with pristine transfers taken from the best available source
elements, while new movies are often transferred under the supervision of
the directors themselves. VHS has always been a primarily-rental, "let's
watch a video tonight, what the hell" medium, and so no one really ever
gave a damn about having the best quality possible. When laserdisc
collectors began popping up in droves, it's become almost an industry
hobby to restore movies, add extra footage, director's commentary,
behind-the-scenes footage, do frame-by-frame color corrections, you name
it. Just as with CDs: bonus tracks, retrospective box sets with wild
packaging, digital remasters that sound better than the original
albums--this is all due to CD technology. Why would anyone give a damn
about thirty year old albums at all if there weren't CDs around to give
you an excuse to remaster them, clean them up, and sell them all over
again. :)
Give laserdisc a try. You'll be spoiled, trust me.
By the way, it the case of ITL--that film was shot on video and then
transferred to film, hence the graininess. You'll notice a distinct
difference in the quality of the Baraka footage and the live footage.

I'm sorry to hear that you didn't care for White. I thought all
three of these movies were some of the best cinema I have ever seen.
You're synopsis of Red just covers the very surface. Yeah, she
strikes the guy's dog, but I wouldn't say they become best friends. The
movie is more about the interconnectedness of all of the world's people.
It is really a message of hope and philial love. An excellant last
movie from one of the world's greatest film director's.
I strongly recommend seeing all three movies, and preferably in the
"correct" order, i.e., Blue, White and Red.

The only point I was really trying to make is that he's *not* an
architect designing a monument at all, as Kent thought. It seems odd
to forget that he's a composer, since the music, and her subsequent
struggle to complete it, is at the centre of the film. She's not
trying to finish a monument, at any rate. That's all.

If you're looking for a good place to start with DCD, you might want
to start with their compilation cd "A Passage In Time". It gives an
overview of what they've done. It's where I started and it's one of my
favorite cd by them.
As for CT, I start with the Pink Opaque. Probably the best album
they've ever done!

Whoever asked for advice on CT and DCD:
If you take mesocyclone's advice and buy 'A Passage in Time,' please get it
from me. I have this cd BRAND NEW and I'm trying to sell it.
This offer goes for anyone else out there who wants it.
I would also like to sell a Joy Division cd 'Live at the Paradiso' -
excellent quality boot, pretty damn long too.
A little trivia question for those of you have this popular JD concert. Ian
Curtis repeats somthing to one of the stage hands (I think) two or three
times. It sounds like: "Turn the [fulbackoverterry] please." Does anyone
know what he's saying? I sure don't.

I guess that would be the case if you consider _The Pink Opaque_ to be an
album. It's more a compilation of selected tracks from other albums and
EPs. It does have some standout tracks on it, however, including a better
(IMHO) version of "Wax and Wane" than the one on _Garlands_, and, of
course, "Millemillenary," which is to be found nowhere else.

errrr...sheesh! slowdown! you're not quite looking before you're
you're right, kevin shields IS brilliant (although neil halsted is
even more so). i love mbv and other rather noisy bands. the point,
however, was that he hasn't put out an album in years and everyone on
heaven and earth has been waiting for one. the same goes for andrew
eldritch (well, at least he hasn't put an album out in years, i don't
know if we're really that anxious though), which is why i coupled them
together
.....and harold budd is an amazing ambient composer who did an album
called _the moon and the melodies_ with the cocteau twins, among other
things. his work with the piano is some of the most beautiful and
intelligent music i've ever heard....
if you like walls of noise, you should try lovesliescrushing (despite
what e. might say about that).....it's gorgeous!

Meanwhile, back at the thread...
Having given Burning Circle and Then Dust a few more spins I must say I
really am getting into disc two. There's a great deal of beauty here and
the nuances are creeping up on me slow and easy. The two songs the girls
sings are heartbreakingly lovely. The jury's still out on disc one but
I'll most likely warn to it in time.

So could you maybe explain it to poor doofy me? Okay, this guy breaks up
with his wife for reasons inadequately explained, sneaks back to Poland
with some old guy who wants him to shoot him, makes piles of money by
screwing over some seedy underground types who considerately don't whack
him for it, and then plans some kind of revenge on his castrating bitch
of a wife through an ill-explained scheme involving faking his own death,
which lands her in jail, at the end of which they gaze tearfully at
eachother through barred windows at a distance of several hundred yards.
Anything I missed?

actually, i guess i was thinking of 'orpheus', from secrets of the

they're a couple of tracks on gone to earth with saxophones. i just
really don't like horns, so if someone like sylvian puts a horn in a
truly great song like 'orpheus' i tend to overreact and run around like a
madman saying things like, "david sylvian's always putting awful horns in
these really wonderful songs and it annoys the hell out of me!" it's
probably not quite as bad as i'd like to make out to be. :)

Some people don't like 4CC because it sounds too accessable and

Is anybody out there into Swirl. They're an Australian band that have been
compared to CT, Lush, and early Pale Saints (pretty broad comparison if you
ask me, but maybe not for an untrained ear.) I'm wondering. Which of
these comparisons are valid. I'm thinking about ordering their latest,
"The Last Unicorn." Any opinions of it??
I know I ask a lot about how different bands sound. I prefer to hear what
other people have to say. It's really interesting to buy the music and see
how people's comparisons stack up. Many of you have been very helpful with
the CT and DCD stuff. I'm not just going to run out and buy whatever seems
the most popular, though (I'm more original than that.)
Oh, I listened to TMC's F&S yesterday and it's great! Back to Swirl. I've
heard a little off of a couple early EPs. How does the newer stuff
compare?
Thanks again,
