Subject: Rosewater Elizabeth


Rosewater Elizabeth

      article by Rev. Jayson Elliot

      three girls  names, three types of train; three colors, three things
that are made of plastic...

      In a room in Seminole, Florida, The Green People played an ad-lib word
game, piecing together lyrics; aiming more for sound, feel and color than
meaning. When they were finished, the song that remained was named
 Rosewater Elizabeth.

      The Green People at the time consisted of Jeremy Wilkins, Melissa
Mileski, Daniel Rosen and Milza Barley.  Originally no more than a loose
collection of songs written by Jeremy and Milza in their bedrooms, The Green
People went on to add Melissa, a friend of Jeremy s from high school, as a
singer. Daniel, whom Jeremy had known since middle school and who was
teaching Jeremy to play guitar, signed on as their guitarist.

      With the completion of a permanent lineup, their sound began to
change, and as their sound and purpose changed, they felt it was time to
change the name to reflect what was, in essence, a new band.

      By January 1992, The Green People were no more, and in their stead
remained that new band; christened from the song, they were now Rosewater
Elizabeth.

      Over time, Milza ended up leaving the band, and before completing
their first album, Rosewater Elizabeth saw the addition of David Miville and
Lee Wiggins.

      Their first CD, Faint, was released in 1994 on local independent label
24 Hour Service Station.

      Faint s songs are like photographs, little landscapes of emotion that
draw the listener in with their sounds.  When asked into what category
Rosewater Elizabeth s sound might fit, vocalist Melissa responds,  people
have been calling it emotional, which is really nice; and I think it s kind
of a neat description for music it makes me very happy.

      Rosewater Elizabeth has a style that wanders through the specturm of
the ?thereal and ambient genres.  Drawing from influences ranging from Brian
Eno to This Mortal Coil, they use a variety of instruments and arrangements
to weave a sound that is sometimes soft and flowing, sometimes acoustic and
personal, and sometimes even noisy. Beginning with a simple arrangement of
traditional acoustic instruments and synthesizers, Rosewater Elizabeth
brings in different musicians and instruments on many different songs;
including a shakuhachi flute, sitar, and... bagpipes.

       There s a school here, Dunedin High School, where they have a bagpipe
troupe,  explains Jeremy,  and when Milza was in the band, he decided it
would be a really good idea to call them and find a bagpipe player. We found
one that had graduated and was going to USF, and she (Danette Rush) played
on our album.

       She played live with us several times it was almost as if people
didn t care what song we were doing, or what anybody else did, as soon as
the bagpipes came out, the audience just went crazy. It was such a strange
reaction to get, playing at a huge, outdoor arena like Janus Landing the
type of place where rock bands play... she was just amazed that people went
so fanatic over her.

       The first couple of times she wore the kilt and everything, but after
that she asked,  do I have to wear that?  and we told her of course not; so
from then on she dressed normally, but we always got the same response.

      A Rosewater Elizabeth show is an enigma it draws its power from the
emotion and passion of the music, rather than costumes and antics. Melissa
explains why their live shows look the way they do.

       I really don t like it when I see girls trying too hard to be
dramatic... trying to be something they re not.

       I look more like a boy than anything else,  Melissa laughs,  I guess
I just do whatever I feel like doing.  Jeremy is over banging on his
keyboards until it looks like he s in Jesus Jones; and Dan, our guitarist,
does not stand up, he sits down. He stomps his feet like he s stamping on
small cities and he s Godzilla... Well, nobody else thinks that, but I do I
always look at him and I crack up.

      Rosewater Elizabeth is now releasing their second full-length album,
Le Petit Morte. Drawing on a wider range of influences and experience, both
individually and collectively, Jeremy and Melissa each feel that they are
growing in important ways.

       I think the new album is a lot more clear, a lot more poignant
emotionally,  says Melissa,  I think we all wanted to do something on the
first album, that didn t come out as much as we wanted it to. The new album
is a lot more honest, a lot more real it s very emotional for me.

      Jeremy agrees that they have expanded musically as well.  At the core
of Rosewater, we are really influenced by the Cocteau Twins, This Mortal
Coil, all that,  he says,  and that s what the first album was.  On the new
album, we are able to accept that we have other influences, things like
Diamanda Galas, Nine Inch Nails, Bauhaus...

      It is high praise indeed for Le Petit Morte to say that it surpasses
Faint; it was the songs from Faint that inspired the owner of The Main
Street Coffee House in Fort Meyers, where Rosewater played, to write them a
two page letter that described itself as a  love letter  for the band.

       The Main Street Coffee House is this really wonderful place,  Jeremy
recounts,  it s an all-ages spot where anyone can go, it was the first place
we ever played in Fort Meyers. Cindy, the owner, gave that to me one night;
it was the fifth or sixth time we had played there. Marshall (24 Hour
Service Station) saw it and thought it would make a great bio, since we
didn t really want to say anything about ourselves. We asked Cindy if she
would feel comfortable if we used her letter instead of a bio, and she said
she would be flattered if we would.

      This minimalist approach to a press kit typifies Rosewater Elizabeth s
style. Faint and Le Petit Morte share a subdued power, one which can envelop
the listener while remaining personal and emotional.

      Where Faint might fit neatly in an early 4AD catalog, Le Petit Morte
goes on to define a unique style for them; one which falls somewhere between
ambient and acoustic, which sees noise as essential an element as silence.
Distant whispers of middle-eastern influences play along with long sorrowful
guitars and occasionaly dissonant noises, all working with a voice that
always felt more comfortable with Italian arias than rock and roll.

      When I was in art school, no one wanted me in their bands because my
voice was too frilly,  remembers Melissa,  and when I started singing with
The Green People, it was more Love And Rockets-type stuff. I was always more
comfortable with my voice, because I thought it was better, but I didn t
think they wanted to work with that. Then one day I was singing an aria, and
they suddenly said,  keep doing that!  so I kept doingthat...

 Actually, I've seen the version of the Cocteau Twins CD with Faye
 Wong doing vocals for _Serpentskirt_...it's a Hong Kong release,
 and...*smile* by the way, I live in Singapore, and over here, we
 can find this particular release, the original one and the
 limited edition one as well.

 In one of her earlier albums, Faye Wong did a cover of _Bluebeard_...
 and she has one of the loveliest voices I've ever heard too.

 Hmmm...if anyone's interested in her stuff, I could help you get
 them -- they're easily available here.  :)

        *Bernard Butler is doing nothing. He released a few singles with

         (sounds like a haberdashery, don't it?). One of which, entitled
         "Yes" was quite awful.

         I've seen Suede several times, and
         i like them much better without B.B.. Their new axeboy, richard
         oakes, is a firecracker and can do B.B. lick for lick, but faster
         and with even more glam (less poutey/prancey im a rockstar shit).
         On the same note, i also prefer Dogmanstar to the 1st lp.

I didn't know that you guys would be THAT intrested in Faye Wong singing a
Cranberries song. She did that 2 years ago. Faye is a fan of the
Cranberries and as well as Bjork, She looked like Bjork for a while back.

I didn't think that her rendition of Dreams in CANTONESE (not Mandarin) was
alll that flash.
BTW she and the Berries are from the same recod company ie Polygram thus
she can sing their stuff.

You guys don't have it as shit as us down here.
CDs cost almost A$30 each and they are ALL made locally. So the 4AD stuff
we get is reprinted and repressed in Australia which is shit.
Some of us 4AD collectors have been buying LP because they come form the UK
and the print quality is generally good.
The goverment has agreed to allow importing CD to compete with local CDs
etc. and what the record companies want to do if they allow imports? They
are going to Up the prices!!! *DOH*
In singapore I can buy US made Cd's for 2/3 the price at $20 each!

INCREDIBLE!!!

  I will be able to see them twice again this year!!!!!!!  The other time i
caught them twice was with the HOLV tour!!!!  I love it!  Illinois seems to
be their favorite state? :)  Well, IL and CA, arent we a lucky bunch? :)

  Well, ive made a few buys this past week...some on the recommedations of
this list.   First of all, Future Sounds Of London, cd single of
lifeforms...at first i didnt care for it much.....but the more i play it,
the more i enjoy it.  Great song to just sit on the bed headphone loud and
listen intently.  Liz and her chantra is great!  Somehow tho, i wish the
song had been more, "dancey"?  I think she could make a kick ass jungle
song!  Whatcha guys think?  Good buy, even at 11 bucks...ouchie!

  Second i found, by utter surprise, the vinyl of HOLV, at 6 bucks, so i
naturally i snatched it up!  Reckless is a great place to buy used records.
Great condition too!  That sleeve looks really great...and i finally get to
see the cover in its full glory. God i love vinyl.

 Third, i finally found Spoonfed Hybrid!!!!  I had a choice, the judge dredd
soundtrack, i do love need fire, or this.  Kinda a hard choice, least for
me, but i ended up with SH.  Am i glad i did.  And the funny thing too, i
got it used!!!! What kind of an ignant person would sell this back??  Ian
Masters is one brilliant writer!  These songs are so wonderful, at least i
think.  Different!  And at 12 dollars, a bargain.

  Now i just have to save up for the two coming concerts!  I said i'd never
go to a sillypoloozy, but if it has CT, damn im going!!!!

  Take care

Heavenly
Rasputina
Rocketship
Swirlies- Sneaky Flutes ep
Supergrass

By the way, the new Boyracer album is rather remarkable. Hated
them live, but this album shows them in a more melodic,

I like it much better than the full album. It's much more
"amorphous" and has far fewer of those intrusive baggy techno/
trip-hop beats. It's more prominently a vocal collection and far
more interesting to my techno shy ears. That Starburst 7 song
is on there, where it doesn't sound much like anything else.

anyway, i never got any corrections from the last lot of people i sent it

Subject: Stereolab: News From the Front. Peng! Peng!


this heard from their live set/interview on KCRW 4/25/96:

-snogs performed: Percolator, Metronomic Underground, Spinal Column
(formerly called Melancholy), Heavenly Van Halen

-the collaboration with Nurse with Wound has been finished for about a year.
steve (stapleton) recently told them he's going to redo the artwork.

-there was some mention of encores with Mouse on Mars (possibly in Germany)
and they may collaborate with them and/or Charles Long (again) in the future.

-they have two tracks on a coming Red Hot comp. covers of the songs
"Surfboard" and "One Note Samba"


I would say that Emperor TC is a shift in flavor for them, not as poppy,
more jazz riff based, sounding a bit more like some of the other "post-rock"
outfits. The happy melodies are not as present, but there is some serious
funkiness going on.
I would say, listen to the release a few times before
their show. Their show at Pomona on Sat. was mostly from
ETC with some poppy older "hits" mixed in. The songs are great live,
especially Metronomic Underground, Cybele's Reverie (my favorite on the album),
 and a quiet, delicate song, Spinal Column (not released yet.)

If you're catching the Troubador show tonight, find me and say hi!

Subject: Review of Husikesque [Re: Was it Area? I will show you how!]


e queries piteously:
>(Does anyone here have that Hannant/Husik fulllength?)

I do, ha! because Gil mistakenly sent it to me instead of to you. We're
talking about

Husikesque "Green Blue Fire" (Astralwerks)

which is the second(?) collaboration between US indie-popper Lida Husik
and UK ambient electroniker Beaumont Hannant. According to the sleeve
Lida plays most all the instruments, with Beaumont providing beats and
production. I also assume he did a lot of the kbd programming since the
sounds are very much like that of his solo stuff which I've heard. I
can't comment on how much this sounds like solo Lida Husik because I
haven't heard any of her solo stuff. Still, I _am_ empowered to say that
this is neat stuff that falls midway between pop and
techno/trance/ambient -- most of the songs are definitely _songs_, with
some structure and lyrics and sometimes even choruses, but with lots of
great bleepy sounds and loops and other nice things. A couple of tracks
are more in the amorphous vein, but they act more as interludes between
the other songs. It's almost like you get an entire album pre-remixed for
you. It may be a little too cutesy and, uh, accessible for some (that's
why Gil sent it away) but I found it just right. "Bad Hair Day" is one of
the best pieces of pop I've heard all year, taking me back fondly to the
days of Tom Tom Club...

So in return can someone who has the previous "Evening At the Grange"
(e?) tell me more about it? I recall hearing one track from it and it was
somewhat Seefeely.

Subject: Quick reviewlets

          Brett Sher ,
          Doug Hill ,
          Peter Konopka 

Picked up some stuff this weekend that I feel like blurting out
commentary on for the benefit of youse listies:


Cocteau Twins "Tishbite" EP #2 (Fontana)
"Tishbite" is fairly forgettable, with a lot less instrumentation than
I'd expect from the Masters Of Overproduction -- you get a guitar line, a
bassline (plucked not strummed!), vocals, and the usual beatbox. "Round"
sounds more like traditional Cocteaux, but is rather by-the-numbers and I
didn't really warm to it. Moreover it demonstrates that they _still_ have
problems figuring out how to end songs.
But! "An Elan" is extremely cool, one of the best things I've heard from
them in ages and ages, and an indication that they "get" the whole
ambient/drone thang that's been going on, even without Mark Clifford's
help. The first half is built of a single tapping beat, a single strummed
Guthriestyle chord, and some subdued Liz vocals. Very hypnotic. It then
slowly builds into one of those patented Cocteau Twins gorgeous climaxes
-- this is one of the few songs I've heard from them in the last, oh,
seven years or so that really makes the hairs stand up on the back of my
neck. Glorious feeling.


Flying Saucer Attack "Further" (Drag City/VHF)
I have a pretty lackadaisical attitude toward picking up new FSA product
(this one's been out for a year or so, right?) but it always goes down a
treat. If the first one was the "rock album" and Distance was the
"ambient album" then this must be the "folk album" (he said,
overgeneralizing wildly.) Many of the songs are at heart plaintive little
acoustic-guitar ditties with HUGE SLABS OF WILDLY ECHOING AND LOOPING
SAWTOOTH FEEDBACK on top, thus providing that mixture of delicate
fragility and horrendous violence that we all dig so much (he said,
stating an objective fact.)
Very appropriate music to read Delany's "Dhalgren" to, I must say, since
that's what I've been doing. [Any other fans of this book want to chat
about it, send me private mail...]


Stereolab "Emperor Tomato Ketchup" (Elektra/Duophonic)
I'm going to have to listen to this one a few more times to get a true
impression of it. But at first listening I can say that
(a) "Metronomic Underground" is very groovy, with a jazzy/funky/Tortoisey
feel to it. My wife from the kitchen complained that it was too
repetitive, but only because from that distance she couldn't hear the
gradually accreting layers of complexity being piled on the basic riff
(which itself is tres cool) as the song goes on.
(b) "The Noise Of Carpet" is everything the old-Stereolab fan could want
-- a rave-up along the lines of "John Cage Bubblegum" but fuzzier and
noisier. If Stereolab did a punk song this would be it.
(c) There are other very nice songs on the album, but like "Mars Audiac
Quartet" before it, it seems to have four or five too many tracks and
wears out its welcome by the time it's ended. I started the album
thinking "Stereolab Have Returned!", kept this feeling for about 2/3 of
the way through, but ended up feeling disappointed.
But, I caution, I have only listened to it once. I think one listen is
sufficient for me to conclude that it's a lot better than MAQ, however.

Gosh, and to think I just re-subscribed to 4AD-L :)

I was/am the keeper of the discog, but it's been over a year since I last
updated it.  Here's the URL for the M7X home page:

        http://www.prairienet.org/arts/m7x/index.html

Click on Discography to see my document in it's glorified text format.

I guess the biggest thing the discog lacks is info on the Lanterna CD and
T-shirt and the M7X new style t-shirts.  Everything else there, should be
fairly accurate.

Agate Lines is a compilation, and includes some very rare tracks from off
of Area's first cassette, White Canvas, Hew Hope.  This cassette is way-out-
of-print, and I've never seen one; and if I remember correctly, the master
was lost when Office Records closed.  Also, Agate Lines was only released
in Europe, so very few copies (about 10, to the band) were sent to the US
when it was shipped.  The art is a very nice Chris Bigg piece, and pretty
impossible to describe (I've seen the framed original).

  The blurbs from my discog are below.

Projekt has been saying this for an EON.  As far as I know, Projekt actually
did acquire 2 or 3 of the masters from C'est La Mort, and was planning to
re-release the Area CD's, but there was some hang-up with respect to getting
all the licensing/permission to reissue the CD.  I sort of wonder if it will
ever be done...

Hi all...

I've decided that I really need money far worse than I need my copy of
Lilliput. So, I'd like to auction it off, as I paid quite a bit of money for
it and would like to get all I can back!

My copy is in near perfect condition, there is a slight 'yellowing' at the
top 2" (on the front only), but the binding is in perfect shape, the 'gold'
4AD tag is in perfect shape (they tend to get bent), and as an extra added
bonus (!) I have had the book signed by Throwing Muses and Pale Saints.

The bidding will close on Friday, May 3rd.

Replies by e-mail only (duh).

Any singles for sale at the show?  Hopefully we'll get something

Also, has anyone seen Stereolab on one of their 2-show nights?  Just

As promised, here is the Lush discography from Record Collector magazine. I've
not bothered with values (I'm assuming none of you are breadheads). I recommend
the article to everyone. It seems '500' will be the next single. Whether it will
come with another set of seven b-sides, I don't know.

By the way, Lars, your hopes are confounded. Lovelife has outsold all previous
Lush LPs by a large margin already.

To all listies:

If I wanna get high for the first time(rite of passage, gotta do it)
Which albums(Cocteau Twins/This Mortal Coil) would you recommend, if at all,
while you're high?  The folks I'll be with have never heard of 4AD and I
don't want to come across as a kook.  They're Pink Floydians, but the
sounds are "similar" in ambience, are they not?  I'm thinking
VIctorialand or Blue Bell Knoll, but I want an opinion from someone
who's experienced the "feel" to give me a recommedation.

Okay.  I'm either very deluded or insanely lucky.  It was my understanding
that the Holding Our Breath ep was out of print.  However, in addition to
the copy I found up here, I found another one last weekend.  So which of the
following is correct:

a)The heroin I had for breakfast made me erroneously believe that this ep
was   out of print

b)It has been reissued

c)I'm a fantastically lucky individual and should go buy a lottery ticket
right now

Also, I saw someone selling a flexi of theirs a few days ago (but I was too
late to get it).  Does anyone know if they have a flexi or songs on any
compilation albums that do not appear on their albums or ep's?

By the was, the Holding Our breath ep I saw was on Vinyl at Vinyl Fetish on
Melrose.

Thankyamuch,

Yes, IHMO, Delikatessen is better than "city of lost children". A strange
athmosphere, dark lights and strange people, but with much more humor, po=E9=

The world in Delikatessen seems less far away from us than in CoLC:
it could be a kind of "no hope" East country, were there is no more
meat, and the butcher is in the habit of hiring some fresh young man...
to work before beeing cut in slices !  At least until the new young man fall
in love with the definitly moypic daughter of the butcher.

Jeunet & Carot (the directors) comes from the world of TV ads. Delikatessen
is their first (long) movie, they are very inventive but don't seem to be
able to come out from this dark ambiance: quite all the people here in Franc=
e
have been less impressed by CoLC than Delikatessen.

It's a live from Mexico (1993), remixed by Warrn in 1994 I suppose,
great performance and mix, some known songs from _Livonia_ to MbM, always
in a very different version than on lps, some others unreleased songs.
The tape reads "Live 1993 recording 1994 Mexico", and the play list has
nothing to do with known titles!
Some parts are very harsh sounds, but most of the tape is in the HIiYH way,
and with some piano 'interludes' between songs (Harold Budd ?)

4.50 ppd (in US) from Time Stereo (address in FAQ...)

Essential for every Warr'n fan.

>
>    What do you have from esp summer?

the ESP-Summer tape from Time Stereo, ESP-Continent _Mars is a ten_ lp from
Karina Square (french release of the same tape), and the ESP_Summer 10''
released from Farrago records...   Again, See the FAQ for details.

(cannibalism pun intended)
They're both great films!  I found Delicitessen to be more humorous but less
visually flamboyant.  But since this really doesn't have anything to do with 4AD
we should probably take this to personal e-mail.

I saw the movie when it first came out. Delicitessen, as far as I remember,
has one yuck scene. But, its really funny.  The movie has more to do with
the strange and funny relationships that people have with each otherthan
acts of cannibalism.

I was really disappointed by the song, " Bad Head Day" on CMJ Monthly. I
describe it as a really weak attempt to capture people to listen to weak,
trite, wannabe ambient music. I must assure those out there is 4ADland that
this is not ambient music. Please tell me the album is stronger than this
song.  She also got "props" from Option magazine. So, i don't know what to
believe. My ears or my eyes.:)

I found a NEW copy of the coteaus "Pink Opaque" a while ago, and I love
it.  But I'm not that big of a Cocteau Twins fan, and I wan't someone who
really likes them to have it.  Also, I'm broke broke broke, so that
should explain something, too.  Bidders or traders (only if it's a damn
good trade, i.e. -HNIA, Pixies, Throwing Muses, etc.) can e-mail me.
Thanks...
Also, since Warren has done these collaberations with everyone else on
4AD AND their mother, when is the big "Kim Deal/Warren Defever" or
"Kristen Hersh/Warren Defever" projects planned???  Those would truly be
awesome.  C'mon, people!  We all know it's bound to happen!  Beside John
McEntire and Steve Albini, whose the most widely used producer in the
world?  WARREN DEFEVER!  Golly.  Anyway, thanks for listening...

I have a double CD set of "Sounds of 4AD" released (1995) in South East
Asia licenced by Red Hot Inc with Lennon Records (Taiwan) to raise money
for AIDS Charity.

It's a limited edition and only avaliable in SE Asia. The CDs "One" and
"Two" has the exact song list as the 2 CDs in the LILLIPUT BOOK. It also
comes with a 4AD box that will fit 5 CDs. (email me for the song list.)
It's the closest thing that some will come to the Lilliput book.

Is there anyone out there who might want to trade it for a 4AD book (This
Rimy River) or a 4AD calendar/ poster set ect.? I want something like a
book or poster hardcopy. Negotiable

What is the going rate for the "Lonely Is An Eyesore" complilation??
