    Damn, I seem to have exceeded the expiry date on YSI. Would someone be kind enough to a reupload? Many thanks!

    Neue Deutshe Welle Hot Tips

    Reigniting this thread with a request for names/tracks on a NDW mix that was passed to me back in the late 90s. Figured there's enough Neue Deutsche fanaticism in this forum to nail 'em down. I've upped it to http://rapidshare.de/files/31748899/NDW_Mystery_Tour.zip.html It's about 130Mb in...

    Sun Ra "Sleeping Beauty"

    I'm with y'all on the sensual attributes of Sleeping Beauty. The Horo lps occasionally had a similar feel but the Fender Rhodes on SB kinda puts it over the top. So was this a vinyl only reappearance? On Jupiter is almost as enjoyable ("UFO", the Arkestra's sole attempt at disco, is...

    the wire

    My first taste was the Michael Jackson cover ish in the late 80s. A controversial yet wise move on their part, one that at the very least widened their distribution to my office tower's newsstand. I dropped the monthly habit somewhere in the past year. I agree with Jess (?) in that the...

    Music inspired by William Blake.

    My first intro to Nick Drake was in the compilation, "Heaven In A Wild Flower", titled spirited from Blake's "Auguries of Innocence." Did Drake also use this in a lyric, or was this used simply in recognition of his passion for the poet?

    Wolfgang Dauner

    Matt, was I misguided to have repeatedly passed on a similarly cheap copy of this album years ago? Isn't it all acoustic piano solos?

    Zappa-vs-Beefeart

    http://www.thewire.co.uk/archive/essays/zappa.html "Zappa takes the piss out of some of the best things in the modern world (girls, drugs, discos, S&M) without offering anything better in their place... He had long hair but sneered at longhairs; he made a long and lucrative career out of...

    Prog.

    Oh dear, it appears that I parted with my copy of Vital when it was far too early in the game. Hammill's vox were wretched on that one, IIRC. But to now try imagine how "Plague" sounded with violin subbing for Jaxon's sax and Banton's keys... well, 'tis boggling. Further to Woebot's...

    Prog.

    At risk of taking Simon's quote out of context, I do agree that there's some utility here, particularly when used as a mechanism to explore new areas of music-- a reverse logic of sorts. But I don't agree that these general notions of acceptability are purely dogmatic. It's possible that the...

    Wolfgang Dauner

    Another kraut crossover could be based around Embryo, who had both Mal Waldron and Jimmy Jackson (Amon Duul II) on their two Brain records, Steig Aus and Rocksession. Hey, Waldron even did a session for Japo with Jackson, Eberhard Weber, and Fred Braceful. The Weber/Braceful rhythm section...

    Prog.

    I've a continued adoration of 310's debut Prague Rock. The Pink Floyd tribute is somewhat predictable but their choice of loop for the Jethro Tull piece is brilliant. And the KC title, "Pipeless And Smoking Crack", is kind of meritorious. On Van der Graaf's Peel Session from 24-10-77, their...

    good cover art thread

    Agree with Woebot on the Ulmer. How horrifying to discover that my digital "upgrade" on DIW entirely abandoned the comic style:

    Lost in Meditative Jazz.

    Heh. Now those are eight consecutive words that you'll never read on ILM... I agree with you, in the sense that the concept has become too broad to be a reliable utility. Many have positioned their own idea of what it should encompass, whether it be on kozmigroov-l, the Kozmigroov website...

    Are We The Music Makers?

    Used to play in an electronic music trio called Magnetic Flip. Hmm, I just checked and the site is still up at http://www.ilbrutto.com/magneticflip/index.htm , complete with a some rather lengthy MP3s and the ubiquitous broken links.

    Lost in Meditative Jazz.

    As the original-- though no longer-- host of the "kozmigroov" pages, I'm somewhat curious to know how this concept induced such a colourful reaction. Not being at all defensive and would be happy to clarify my own reasoning...
