    Date: Wed, 13 Dec



    i've got some questions about the Jewel remixes...
    i have read that they are fans of Foetus; so the
    Thirlwell remix is expected, they toured with the Cure,
    so, the Robert Smith one is expected as well. However,
    where does Ivo Watts-Russell enter the picture? i know
    he is the main man behind 4AD records, so is he a fan, a
    friend, someone who was looking to sign them in the early
    days, what?! also, how were the remixes received by the
    band themselves, they obviously liked them or they wouldnt
    of had them released, but... yeah. any thoughts of any
    possible remixes in the future? i am thinking perchance
    Brad Laner of Medicine, Robin Guthrie (Cocteau Twins),
    Mark Clifford (Seefeel) and many others would do some
    interesting takes on the material...especially some more
    ambient-like schtuff. who knows, i am not to say!?
    just some thoughts... thanks...............!

Ok.  Not to start a flame war, but I think the "look" of Miki is part
of the music or at least the total aesthetic package of the band.  It
is at least as pertinent to discuss our being attracted to Miki as it
is to discuss the artwork of Vaughn Oliver, or the fact that Miki's
mother was in a James Bond movie.  Besides this is the 4AD list, not
the 4AD music list perse.  Do music magazines (or fanzines) just discuss
the music?

Perhaps it is the wording of the message that distresses you but it is
important to say so.  Personally thought, I find nothing wrong with
saying that I am attracted to Miki.

um. . .yeah.  "i'd do her." has got to be one of the most disgusting,
dehumanizing ways to express an attraction i've ever heard.  then again, if
you refer to women as "broads," you might not understand what i'm saying.

i thought your message was fine and appropriate, matt, but the phrase
"i'd do her" is too infantile and degrading to be seen on this mailing list.
you have to remember that brian also tried to "start" a penis-size thread a
couple of weeks ago.  god, i thought there were newsgroups for shit like
that.

for completely complete completists they also had a track on the 'camden
crawl' compilation cd published on 'love train records' recently although i
don't think it's an exclusive track ('heads of dead surfers' sounds
familiar, i have nothing else by the band at all).

The trees have just completed recording of the album. I've heard some

trumpet blowing from the boy William ('Will' to his chums).

They've just signed a new record deal, the name of the label escapes me for the
moment; *beloved*?
No plans of touring just yet, but will no doubt at least play Europe
esp. France.
America? Who knows, a short promotional tour perhaps.

Well, if they sound as bad as they look (and they do seem to be turning out
some seriously ugly, desperately unstylish bands there these days), then I
don't think much of them. Considering that music in Britain is at an
all-time low as it is, where your influences and your ability to recreate
faithfully a given style from the past without the slightest originality is
all that counts (along with where and with whom you do your drinking), it
shouldn't be that hard to be at least *slightly* challenging and different,
but that's not what people seem to be looking for.

e asked what the deal was with (among others):
>Dean Garcia

According to Toni Halliday, he's noodling on his Moog a lot these days,
coming up something semi-ambient

>Andrew Eldritch

Tried to fire himself from the Sisters in order to get out of his record
contract, although the label said it wouldn't work legally. Things must be
pretty bad.

>Bud

Either got shelved when Toni started Scylla, or Bud became Scylla

>Richard Ashcroft

Now working as a swimming-pool attendant in Rhyl, Wales

>Guy Chadwick

I don't know either. His new band, The Madonnas, doesn't seem to have gotten
off the ground. It shouldn't be that hard for him to get signed somewhere
(but going back to Creation might not be such a good idea, I think)

Salutations from over the pond. Minority vs majority.

Firstly may I apologise for any breaking of message construction
conventions, for I am new to this game. Besides isn't it what you
say, rather than how you say it. Indeed.

To the matter at hand.
Does anyone know the name of the film(s) that Dead Can Dance provided
the soundtrack to?
Is the film or just the soundtrack available to buy?

Also one person on this list has already mentioned them, but to all
those who have not checked them out yet, a tip:
'and also the trees' you will not be disappointed; I hope.
A good place to start is 'Green is the Sea' esp. the track 'the fruit
room'.
However if you like your music a tad Cure-ish (what a great
descriptive word) then head for the earlier material i.e. Virus
Meadow.
The band are not on 4AD but I feel would appeal to those who like
that kinda thing.
By all means drop us a line to tell me they are pants (a jovial term
proposing the notion of dislike).
But be prepared for a relentless barrage if you do.

Britpop.
Shite (rhymes with 'flight' in case your wondering) expression but
some semi-decent acts.
I would be interested to see how the idea is being pushed in the US.
I saw an advert in a comic book (the invisibles) and it looked
decidedly shifty, with a big union jack flag and peddled like some
invasion.
Corperate record labels- don't you just love'em. Cynic. Me?

Aimless writing abound. Time to go.

Bollocks to that.  Cast are pretty good and excellent live.
Admittedly it could be argued their style is 'unoriginal', but then
if their music is good, and enjoyed by some what's wrong with it?  I
often remove one of my proper relevant-to-this-list 4ad CDs out of
the player and listen to the Cast album.

Chapterhouse was one of the semi-dream pop/post My Bloody Valentine bands
that were momentarily big 2-3 years ago.  Otheres in this genre-let were
bands like Moose, Swervedriver, the Lilys, the Swirlies etc.

They were nothing to write home about IDM-wise.  Global Communication have
gone on record as having hated Chapterhouse.  The blood music remixes were
based on just shreds of the original music.

More germane pop acts are (of course) early Depeche Mode, Erasure, New
Order, Human League, etc, etc.  Some of the industrial dance stuff (the
things that aren't so charred flesh and gristle oriented) like Nitzer Ebb
has it's tasy moments as well.

Perhaps not truly relevant to this list, but still needs to be said.

Music in the UK is doing fine. With a quickly growing underground
movement in a style solely cultivated in the UK, known most commonly
as 'Jungle' as in 'inner city jungle'; that will no doubt wash onto
the shores of the US and is already having an influence on some
american artists.
There are also bands which are perhaps more related to these
lists, (music is global and all forms are relevant and provide
influences to many people, so I regret this need to relate) that are
consistantly releasing innovitive, and more importantly top tunes,
that many would enjoy but cannot because of what large record
companies deem to be financially viable.

Yes that old cynical chestnut again. I am aware that there are record
companies with honourable intentions but there are business's
nevertheless, and are small fish in a large ocean.

BLINKERED VIEW ALERT:
Besides, Oasis. Serious business.

Remember you only hear the records from other countries that
companies choose to provide. They are *perhaps* not reflective of
what's actually occuring.
I really have a thing about record companies don't I? Well they
killed my brother, and now it's personal.

Rant over.

Does anybody actually read every message on this and other lists?
If you do, I am not worthy.

Full of shit?  einexile doesn't seem to be his usual cheerful and
even-tempered self today!  Actually, the Chapterhouse/GC link-up was
pretty obviously done at the request of the record company (Dedicated),
as was the remix Spiritualized did of a GC track.  That doesn't
necessarily mean the results aren't worth listening to - I like the
Spiritualized remix of "Maiden Voyage", I'm less keen on "Blood
Music".  The Bandulu and Reload remixes of Slowdive were pretty
obviously a result of Creation's (then) link with Infonet, to which
both the techno acts were signed.  Mike Paradinas (Mu-Ziq) apparently
hated the Auteurs, and though I don't like the album much, many people
think the remixes he did of their stuff are the bee's knees.  On the
other hand, Richard James's views on indie pop are probably too well
known to repeat, and I've never heard anyone claim that his St Etienne
remixes are worth listening to.  Back to Spiritualized, they also
remixed LFO recently, which probably means that there is some sort of
mutual respect, as there is no obvious label link, and neither group
stood to gain much in the way of audience crossover.  I'd say that
"Otherness" is based on "shreds" of the original music every bit as
much as "Blood Music" is, and yet that's no sign of a lack of respect
or love on Mark Clifford's part.

Oh I don't know. I listen to the aphex remixes every now and again.
They're not that bad. The Autechre remix of 'motorway' is similar and
is spot on, fella.

actually, i noticed on my radio show last night that the first track from
_distance_  and the first track from _further_ can be played on top of each
other with a lovely effect....so the overall sound of those two is similar.

        .mark...it was noisekids kinda night on the radio last night.

You obviously give yourself TOO much credit. If you think that the mindless
blather that fills the ill formed tripe you pass for arguments is causing
people to unsubscribe, think again. Avoid placing your head near sharp
objects to avoid the danger of popping that over bloated under-worked
apparatus. =^)

They apparently did music for two films for a director by the name of
Agustin Villarongas, 'El Nino de la Luna,' and the other which roughly
translates to 'Death and Springtime' (I've forgotten the exact title).
'El Nino' is notable because it features Lisa Gerrard in her acting
debut.  They've also done some theatre work, Lisa producing music for
a version of Oedipus Rex.  'Host of Seraphim' appears on the soundtrack
to 'Baraka.'

> Is the film or just the soundtrack available to buy?

No and no.  I seem to recall that El Nino won some prestigious award at
some festival but even so, the film was not released into commercial
viewing nor will it ever (according to an interview Raven, DCD web page
maintainer, conducted with Brendan).  The second Villarongas film was
not actually ever released, possibly it wasn't even finished.

when i first joined this list, i wondered why everyone got annoyed with the
newer members.  now i know.  it's funny to see people who've joined in the
last couple months "flaming" one of the "regulars" who along with having
his good share of fun, makes this list worth subbing to.  i think e's
contributed more stuff to the list worth reading than you have, but then
again, i'm not a big fan of rhp.

and, to make this somewhat musically related.  i should be receiving my

Yes, brilliant bands all, although the Closedown album

Huh? They're definitely a good band and worth a listen,
but not very close to Slowdive at all.

Others in a general dreampop, female-vocalist fashion,
which probably most of you know about already:

Orange
Elysium
We released albums by both.

Mistle Thrush, on Bedazzled. Their Agus Amarach EP
is more dreamy than the Silt album.

Siddal, also on Bedazzled. Two 7" and an album.

Astrobrite
only demo tapes so far

Lovesliescrushing
have an album and 7" on Projekt

I think the point here is that it's ridiculous to tell someone that there
opinion is "wrong", especially for something as subjective as music.  I
didn't read the original post as being sarcastic or joking, by the way, so
if he misunderstood the remark he wasn't the only one.

And he wasn't slagging someone's opinion.  Unless you consider it an opinion
that only certain people should be allowed to have an opinion (which is
ridiculous in the first place).

Dropped in today at Time Stereo (actually a record store that also serves as
Time Stereo) and spoke to Kenny Greenbaum, co-member of Princess-Dragom Mom
with Warren and Davin.  We had got to talking about the past few PDM shows
(all of which I missed mainly because I didn't find out about them until 2
days after the fact) - anyway, he mentioned some other recent shows,
including a 'secret' show by HisNameIsAlive.

After mentioning how disappointed I was to have missed both the HNIA and PDM
shows, he then told me of a 'festival' of sorts that will be taking place
sometime between Christmas and New Years at one of two area clubs.  Along
with miscellaneous local bands, HNIA, and PDM, Kenny said that there was a
good chance of other Time Stereo bands playing (i.e. Defever & Davin side
projects) such as New Grape, Little Princess, and even Kenny's new side
project Mog.

Thought I'd let all of you know in case some of you want to travel a bit
(sorry to all you west-coasters... don't mean to gloat, but it's our turn to
have some great shows!).  Unfortunately Kenny didn't have any exact dates as
of yet, but I'll be in constant contact and will be sure to post any and all
info as soon as I get it.

He also mentioned a little about the new HNIA lp due in April... not much
more than what has already been posted, but he did mention the fact that as I
was there talking to him about all this, Warren Karin and Trey were down the
street in a studio recording.

Also worth mentioning:  Picked up Warren's Mystic Moog Orchestra while I was
there... I've only had time to listen to the first 2 tracks.  Kind of a cross
between Flying Saucer Attack and PDM (in my opinion).  If you aren't at all
turned on by the whole "noise" thing, don't worry about it...  however, if
you are, it's a must.  Once again Warren has shown his genius (although I
think he only plays a small part in this project).

One last thing... if you haven't bought the hisnameisaliveLIVEINMEXICO tape
from Time Stereo yet - do so immediately!  this tape is simply incredible!

More to come!

...sometime ago someone posted the lyrics to rilkean heart and half-gifts
as transcribed from the short film/video thing.  anyway, i managed to
lose these, and now i've made the mistake of offering them to the
cocteaux list, and i can't deliver.  so....before i go ftping into the
archives, could someone just send them to me???  that would be truly
neato! thanks....

        .mark.....patientlying awaiting BiZ's movietone review.

& cocteau's treasuredrumsound in chapterhouse's "the pearl"?  (maybe
that's siouxsie's homage to chapterhouse, i have no idea what came before
what).  i've been trying to sneak that question in for awhile now....and
since there's been some chapterhouse discussion.....hee hee
