It's definitely a bit weird, but what surprised me was how accessible they were making it--none of it felt like showing off, it all flows seamlessly. . .

I know not of what you speak, I picked this up at a shop in the south of France for a pittance, and sold it on eBay for quadruple digits, after ripping it to share here. . . :D

Various Artists - 'Le Tour du Monde, Volume 7' (2xLP, Musique du Monde, France - 1973) Download here

I know some of you would dig this. . . Give it a try?

Anyone familiar with this album? Absolute madness--truly end-of-history type stuff, for better or worse. Easy to want to say a 'Switched-On Bach' duly updated--but to my ears there's a lot more going on. In moments, one wants to dismiss it as a gimmick for tackling simply. . . everything...

So odd--I tried (in vain) to get my ladyfriend to watch 'THX 1138' immediately after we saw 'Wall-E,' too. Didn't really have a particular connection in mind, other than the general dystopian/utopian elements, and the high-calibre sound design. Disney, Pixar, I don't care--'Wall-E' was great...

Downloading the last few, planning on catching up tonight--look forward to it! Winding it up for good at 50?

You're ever so macho, sailor.

I like all of those except maybe the instrumental Fish one. I'm given to his tracks generally in Wire, so I prefer A-Z over most non-Newman Wire tracks. 'Commercial Suicide' was a nice change of pace, certainly better than what Wire would do thereafter.

I dig the production on their cover of "When the Levee Breaks" but that's it.

That's interesting information. But I wonder--was he known for being particularly racist, or simply as ignorant as his age/milieu/interests would tend to infer? The business about "post-African" and "African rhythms" sits a little weird with me in that interview about contemporary "sound...

In the off chance anyone missed the time-limited download but might like this mix: I re-uploaded it at the request of a friend, so here's a link. http://www.sendspace.com/file/ms0mzx

Definitely ups to the 'Hardcore Devo' series--much messier, uglier stuff there than what they're known for. But still dig the first few albums proper.

Listening to these again. . . Now I *really* want to hear those '81 tracks, because I swear I remember them being just as insane.

Haha--gave the link a try, and I didn't get porn, but I did get a fraudulent website on getting a U.S. greencard. Not sure what to think about that. . .

I'm afraid I can't even fathom what the second part of this means, but I'm pretty sure I haven't been watching any porn--none that I know of is yet set to Stockhausen or Can ; ) Glad you're digging the tunes, in any case!

Glad you dig them. "Neger Brauchen Keine Elektronik" seems the most relevant, today.

The Nova'billy reissue is fantastic! Wonderful blend of funk, avant-drone, "hillbilly fiddle". http://www.dustygroove.com/item.php?id=jry7j9256x

Released in cassette form again? I hope not. . . sure would like to see a CD or at least digital reissue. . .

"1985 Demos," about which I have no information whatsoever: http://www.sendspace.com/file/so4uol
