So does mine. But if you listen to the tenth track you'll hear that it's
really two tracks; it changes partway through. So my guess is that the
second part of track 10 is the secret "track 11". Where did you hear that
it's called "Tempean"? And do you also know the rest of the track titles
to the Aphex Twin's "Selected Ambient Works 2"? :)

Actually, he's a real big *qawwali* fellow, which is something
different
different hemispheres actually. Nuskrat is from Pakistan and he's like
the Ravi Shankar of the 70s. There style of music qawwali is really
history or story telling. Most of there songs are half an hour, maybe
more. Not exactly material for hit songs in the Westernized world.
He's latest claim to fame is working iwth Ediie Vedder. You can find
some of Nuskrat's music on Real World compliations, there's full
lengths as well. I believe that Peter Gabriel is the biggest type of
star that "discovered" the singer. there's more in my world beat rough

i imagine they will... once the lp has been released. For now Warren will be
limiting playing venues to the local Detroit-Chicago area for the
conveinience of 'testing' the new material on the audiences. Mainly because
the Detroit area is his home area and Chicago is Karin's.
I'll see if I can find out how extensive of a tour (IF any) Warren has in

Projekt's presence on the web is at
http://charlotte.acns.nwu.edu/arielr/projekt/
and if you have Netscape you can see their discography, which includes
titles deleted from their catalog, but not old titles with the same
number as new ones. The discography doesn't include song titles, unlike
the Eyesore database.
I just got Love Spirals Downwards' Ardor and Soul Whirling Somewhere's

to see Mediterranea on either of LSpiralD's albums, so I'm going to have

Three EPs? Wow, I'd never heard of these...could someone provide titles and
tracklistings for them? And approximate times of release would be nice to
know, as well. The only output of theirs I was aware of were the three
albums, and a song called "Ice" that they recorded for a Columbia Xmas
compilation a few years ago.
I don't know anything about Jemaur Tayle's current whereabouts or activities,
but I read in some 'zine a while back that Caroline Crawley plus the Cure's
old rhythm section (including the drummer - Boris Williams? - who was her
boyfriend at the time) played 13YI as Ether. There was talk of a 4AD release
from the band, but I've not heard a thing since then. I believe she last
appeared singing backup on Spiritualized's "The Slide Song" (from
_Pure_Phase_).

Sometimes one carries an erroneous assumption around for most of ones
life, many times making a prat of oneself trying to be clever and
slipping it into conversations. I feel a bit silly about this, but
the dim bulb has begun to brighten and I am very sure one of my life-
long assumptions is completely incorrect. For some reason I have
believed that when people (in 'Record Collector' for example) refered
to vinyl and acetate they were talking about the same thing. This is
wrong isn't it?! Is the acetate disc perhaps the master used to
press the vinyl or is it just a different medium on which to store
music? Embarres me and publish the truth!
What happened to the Projekt mailing list that someone was supposed
to be setting up! Also, if anyone is in the know are there any plans
to release one of those interesting compilations similar to 'Of these
Reminders'. It would be a really good idea if something like this
was being set up.
What the @#$! has happened to Gene Loves Jezebel. If they are still
together they are certain canditates for the laziest band around.
Thanks to all those on the list who recomended Stina Nordenstam! I
now have two albums in me undeserving paws; 'And She Closed Her Eyes'
and 'Color of a Memory'. I know the discography has been sent to the
4ad-l before, but are there any other albums; the memory is...... ?

If there is somebody on the "list" who has info about 4AD' early years,
concretely The Birthday Party? I'm interested in their single of 1982
_Drunk on the Pope's Blood_ (live, with "The Agony is the Extasy" of
The Birthday Party and guest star Lydia Lunch)?
Is there anyone who has this record and can explain in detail what is it
and better I would be most grateful if somebody help me with the copy
of this release! The creation of Lydia Lunch is very interesting for me
as I write book about her, and it's a GREAT problem to find this record here
in Russia. Thank you before!

and Once Dreamt
I ended up listening to a few things after a fill-in show I did on Tuesday.
Thought some of you folks might be interested if you hadn't heard these
already.
The Pastels, _Mobile Safari_, Up Records
This trio from Scotland has some nice poppy tunes, nothing spectacular,
but good fun stuff. I prefer the female singer over the guy, but she sings
on only about four out of 12 songs. A couple songs that stand out are
"Yoga," the most playful catchy tune (it reminds me of Stereolab because
of the "bup ba--, ba bup ba--" vocals) and "Worlds of Possibilities," which
is a slower, soul kind of tune with great horn parts. very cool.
Either song would be good to request at your favorite college radio station.
Overblue, "monoatomic" b/w "robitussin" 7", Ultramodern Records
Ultramodern may be the next place to look for the tweeest music around.
This is the best dream-pop sounding single I've heard in a long time!
The A-side somehow manages to be low-fi, spacy, dream-poppy, and folksy
at the same time. The song somehow reminds me of the Mary Taylor Moore
theme song... I don't know how. The B-side is a slower, moody, layered
psych pop thing. Their sound is very collage-oriented and dense, just
the thing to get you out of these "bad music" doldrums we seem to be
experiencing on the list.
Windy & Carl, _Portal_, Ba Da Bing!
This duo from The State Shaped Like a Mitten has been mentioned here
some so I was curious to check this out. The first impression I got was
of slowness... reeal slooooowness. It's all delayed and reverbed, slow,
fuzzy washes of guitars with some barely audible vox here and there.
It's not the type of thing I normally listen to, but it is the
good music to completely zone out to, perhaps like Flying Saucer Attack.
There is a good song called "Ode to Spaceman," presumably referring to
Spacemen 3.
Once Dreamt, "Drifting" EP, Blue Flea
Four songs by Windy & Carl & Randall & Brenda. Wow! Really quite cool.
The "addition" of two people draws the music into more song-like territory,
less free-form than the above release. The percussion give the songs more
movement, there are actual vocal melodies, and bass lines.
There's still plenty of white/pink/red noise to go around, blurring
the reverbed and fuzzy guitars. With song titles like "Lost" and
"Space Travel," this music is in the same airspace as Bowery Electric.
It's a safe bet, if you like Bowery Electric, Once Dreamt is your cup o' tea.
See you folks at the Impala Cafe for Elysium, ok?

Melody asked dispairingly:
Why do I feel like I'm the only person in the whole entire world that loves
SPOOKY as much as anything else Lush has done (including SPLIT)???
And einexile, who is incidentally infinitely more interesting and
entertaining than his detractors, responded:
The album is flawed, and I think not noticing why can make listening to
it a worse experience than it might otherwise be. Its sound is
relentlessly full and there is little in the way of
subtlety or crispness to break it up, so that one gets a sensation of
drowning. Tiny Smiles is unbearably cloying and many of the album's
other songs (including some of Lush's best work) never gives you a
moment to breathe, so you have this happening on a small scale as well.
You say this as if it were a bad thing. I happen to like the occasional
album that is almost suffocating because of its single-minded character.
(Think late Big Black, lotsa dark ambient, most shoegaze).
In Lush's case, an adequate band with the usual British post-punk
influences was signed, but I would have ignored them if it weren't for
what then seemed like effect pedal overkill. I don't have time for every
patch of angry young women with guitars. But with the overlay of Robin
Guthrie inducing the patented "Sugar Hiccup" glistening walls of guitar
in between snorting and shooting up, "Mad Love" and "Spooky" transcended
their squalid origins, a rock without riff, an enveloping sound.
Now that Miki, Emma, et.al. have become more empowered angry young women,
who can collectively say "no" to the production excesses of their past, is
it any wonder that they sound increasingly run of the mill?
There is a 4AD-L, and not a Atlantic or Warner Bros. list, because the
label's audience recognized a unifying aesthetic at work, particularly in
the golden era of 1984-1990. And it had nothing to do with "good
songwriting". "Good songwriting" is a dime a dozen in the crowded market.
What the 4AD label briefly contributed was a focus on sound qua sound, and
texture, into a pop music context. This is why so many list longtimer's
spurn more recent 4AD signings, like RHP, Scheer, or Tarnation; while
they may individually represent perfectly fine bands, they don't
represent anything unavailable elsewhere in the market. They are
continuing signs of the strategic retreat into middle-aged conventional
"song" values by Ivo and co.
Which is fine: several other labels have won my confidence and support by
consistantly presenting music of texture and affect. I might have never
discovered Too Pure, Warp, Astralwerks, Extreme, Warp, Sub Rosa, even the
somewhat dubious Project/Darkwave had I been cataloguing my 4AD cat
numbers.
I've digressed, but that's your humble correspondant's take on the
decline and fall. And may Miki and Emma once again lust after their
Digitech or Ensoniq rack effects. They might be worth paying attention
to again.

I beg to differ. Personally, I have liked everything they did
previous to these eps, including _Split_. And upon hearing the eps,
I called fellow listmember dsroy to tell him how terrible they
were--and I only saw the first post about it the next morning.
Besides, you will note that those of us who've really bashed the eps
like most of the other stuff. If I thought that Lush were crap in
general then I wouldn't be so surprised about the eps and I wouldn't
care, either.
I'm not giving up on Lush--I just won't ever buy anything from them
again without listening to them first, and I reccomend that everyone
else do the same.

4AD US does not have a catalog, nor do they deal

directly from 4AD, you either have to send pounds to
England, or give them your credit card number.

Ha, I was wondering if anyone was going to make the comparison. I also
noticed the distinct influence of ol' Laughing Len on this record,
especially on "Candle Song 3" and "Where Is The Love". Rachel's backing
vocals are also not quite as cloying as those of the backing singer(s) LC
used to use on songs like "Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye".
There's an interview with Mojave in the latest AP, with a rather startling
photo of the band. Neil looks much scruffier than ever before and Rachel's
new haircut appears to be self-inflicted. Anyway, it's mostly about
Slowdive, as it turns out, and the catastrophe that was their relationship
with SBK and, towards the end, Creation as well. Worth reading.

Alas, both "Edge of Christmas" and "Coolest Christmas" have been
deleted -- perhaps they'll be rereleased next Christmas. Also, HMV is
out of "Snow". "Frosty The Snowman" is still available on the Volume
compilation "Sharks Patrol These Waters" (though it isn't tracked: if
you listen to track 2 of disc 2 it's actually a James song: Frosty is
at the end of track 1), and the original Volume may still be
available. I'm not sure.

p.s. Do you have any information on Tunnel Vision? They are another fave
of mine, though i only own the "Watching The Hydroplanes" 7" ( i also have
a recording of two songs that aren't really worth mentioning as it's bad
glossy/commercial eighties new wave stuff). I've been told that they had a
full album recorded around the time of Hydroplanes. The factory 7" is so
inspiring that i named my new musical project Watching The Hydroplanes.
It's an improvised melodic noise/rhythm project that Kimber, Matt, and I
are pursuing. We're going to try and record an albums worth of material
here soon.

might take the complaints at all seriously if this were not so.
interesting songs by them, more or less in the category of groove-driven
guitar pop with some very odd sounds and other stuff going on. If they're
totally mainstream I apologize, but I don't listen to mainstream radio or
read mainstream magazines so I'd have no idea.

I've always wished for a HNIA/Stereolab tour myself, and they both have new
releases this Spring.

sorry to the people who aren't following this CRAZY auction thing, I said I
wasn't going to post any more public notices; but I found that many of my
private replies weren't getting through, so here's another public update....
i wish there was a better way to decide who gets these singles, because i
don't think some of you are going to stop bidding until you win & I'd hate
to be responsible for you living on the streets (with your turntable!).
the deadline for any more bids is this Sunday 4th.
people were worried that they didn't know if theirs was the top bid or
not,(sorry!) so i decided to include the top bidders name - i hope you don't
mind.
bids are in $US & don't include postage(which will cost $3.50 for 4 7"s)
equals = more than one bid at that price.
I have 4 copies of EAWS - one step forward & 4 of Goes so slow + one red
vinyl, so I can take a few equal bids on these.
any records that have disappeared from the list have disappeared ('pop') -
sorry.
the prayers is a brilliant single!

funny, i always took it that Lush's change from Spooky to Split was due
to an desire not to be pigeonholed into the 'shoegaze-sound' that was
rather forced on them in the Spooky production. i have read interviews
around the release of Spooky where they said that while they liked the
material on the disc they were disatisfied with the production and felt
it had muddled some of their efforts. True they are perhaps 'more
empowered' now, but i think they may have learned the lesson of just not
listening to overzealous producers that are eager to exploit a 'scene'.
as for al this 'decline of 4ad', if the label and its bands distress so
many of you, why do you bother? this isn't an attack (as it will probably
be taken as), but i cant understand why somebody would want an endless
stream of messages in their box about artists they dislike seemingly so
vehemently.

after somewhat of a hiatus (i.e. busy doing other things to make ends
meet), i'm back on the list. i don't know what the current status of the
Prisoner, Dreampop or Advert lists are but it's good to be back on 4ad-l.
send me some e-mail if you'd like to chat, otherwise enjoy the music as
we enter 1996, a peculiar year for music i'm predicting. BTW, Mojave 3 are
beautiful sounding. trivia ? for the 4AD diehards, has any other band
besides Slowdive -> Mojave 3 made the transition from Creation to 4AD or
the other way around?

i'm a bit sad...Gene Kelly passed away today. he was an amazing

Heidy Berry discography (on the basis on my informations):

- single "Below The Waves" (Creation CRE047T, 1988?)
- album "Below The Waves" (Creation CRELP 048, 1989)
(CD version includes the six tracks from "Firefly")

Ok, Ok, I give up. After scouring record stores from New York City to
Berkeley CA (and many points in between), I have given up hope of ever
finding a promo CD with those Liquorice remixes by Warren Defever. It is
just NOT going to happen.
So now I make an appeal to you listies. Does anyone have this that could
tape it for me? I have a large list of listie-type stuff to trade. You
could check it out on my home page, or I could e-mail it to you.
Please aid a Warren fan and a Liquorice fan! I beseech you!
P.S. Whilst in Berkeley, I finally picked up the last Cranes CD. Am I the
only one disappointed by it? Their change in style is not what I wanted
for them :).
P.S. I rarely post, so I have to say alot each time. Thanks to all of
your recommendations, I picked up Bark Psychosis-HeX. NOW i know why all
of you have been gushing about it for so long. It is brilliant....it fills
the gap for those of you that miss the last 2 Talk Talk albums........
