A mate was enthusing about the 33 1/3 book about the making of Loveless last week and said something about the drummer being homeless and not being able to play on most of the sessions for Loveless. Sick from something? I forget. Anyway, I'd always wondered why the drumming changed so much...

Yeah they're great. I like that first album more than 'Loveless'. Baffles me it was a debut and on a major label. Something flukey afoot. That track 'One More' above is one of my favourite tracks of all time. The main guy, Brad Laner, has done heaps and heaps of stuff ever since. Solo...

I know plenty of people in IT who use it as a means to basically learn new shit about their field - follow other people who are working on similar ideas and who pretty much just link to blog posts / new ideas / things published elsewhere. Strictly business. I use it to keep track of music...

I was thinking that's probably a big part of it. The hype about Japan over any other Asian countries is partly because it's hype by people who are excited about the same stuff as the people they're excited about. If that makes sense? Subcultures / notions of cool / fashion consciousness etc...

I was curious, so... number of different listeners on Last.fm at at today: 50 Wavves – King of the Beach (Soundscan:18563 vs. Last.fm:51352) 49 Wild Nothing – Gemini (Soundscan:8773 vs. Last.fm:34654) 44 Kylesa – Spiral Shadow (Soundscan:7778 vs. Last.fm:14808) 43 Tame Impala – Innerspeaker...

Japanese stuff being so "cool" and all the rest of (contemporary) Asia being at best ignored. Exceptions of course, but as a trend... it certainly does my head in.

I'm sure I mentioned it already, but been hearing more and more about "thought leaders". Sounds so Orwellian.

Yeah, definitely no prompt to "remember me" when I use the login box top right of a page... I usually remember to do the reply to post trick John mentions - there it gives you a tick box.

I was going to say it reads like a German-speaker translated to English. All those compound words and stuff. But, yeah... Super.

The main thing I'd say about Inception is it's pretty forgettable. I just can't imagine people talking about it in a few years. Could be wrong, of course... Didn't think it was much to do with "philosophy" in the way the Matrix was trying to be - I saw it as a film about making films, and...

Same. I actually really like Work Them, but it's about the only one of his tracks I've really got.

There were two. The last time I liked an Autechre album was 1995, so I can't really comment on their quality. I gave them both a go.

What's that track that goes "Roska! Roska! Roska!"? ;)

... or if you must go with "of 2010", how about "top 10 records I HEARD in 2010"?

But this is the thing - instead of doing a "top 10 records of 2010" list, why not do a "top 10 records ever" list? or "top 10 records for feeling like you're on drugs when you're not" or whatever else... what's the whole wrapping-up-the-year thing all about? It's certainly not the best way to...

Work toilets - always a bit terrifying to consider that whoever is responsible for the scary things I've seen is one of my workmates.

This is why I won't do a Best of 10. :D Nah, I still listen to Holden stuff heaps and Junior Boys still seem great even if I don't listen to them any more... but some of my fave '06 releases I definitely hadn't heard when I wrote the above.

I hear what you're saying and value your input to this process.
