well, at least the discussion is interesting. now i find Yes futuristic in a non post-modern way, in a classic sci-fi adventure mood more Olaf Stapledon or Starship Troopers than K Dick or the almighty Ballard so much loved by postpunkers. there is also to say that this futuristic Yes...

On this Yes vs. Henry Cow tip. Now i found Henry Cow quite boring, meanwhile Yes had become one of my favorite band, go figure! Yes were "futuristic" in a old classical way, lot of references to classical science fiction, proto new-age mysticism and others fantasy. Sure they were unique, since...

I loved so much in early '90 sampladelia that i don't care if is not anymore fresh and, like any other genre (like all the others my love of the '90: shoegazer, hardcore techno, drum'n'bass, glitch) at the end of the '90 staled and became shit (not secondarily because, after the innovators...

I think that when (modern, alas no heavy rockblues) Metal is referred as the new Prog this goes in referee to Death Metal, , most of Doom Metal, and obviously all of so called Progressive Metal . I would have not consider Drone Metal in his purest incarnation (Earth, firsts SunnO))) records)...

on the pro-fusion angle also i remember Nucleous and Ben on the Vertigo label, i have some tracks of them on the Vertigo Time Machine comp, they are very Miles/Soft Machine sounding for what I remember (Ian Carr, leader of Nucleus, wrote a book on Miles). nothing really exiting but a nice...

First, yes, it was a dead end, but dead end are very interesting. Some reccomendation just out of my head. If you love Miles electric but not interested in simple copycat then try first ECM album by Terje Rypdal (untitled), just imagine a Jack johnson played by Ash Ra Tempel, one of my fave...

absolutely loving it :) (now what about a volume 4???:D )

Who now listens to such rave milestones as [...]? Only very strange people. what a strange world is were idiot like this write on journals...

Well let's not forget also the black roots of techno, Herbie Hancock "Sextant", "Thrust", "Nobu", or Late Clinton, Funkadelic, or Afrika Bambaata Always loved this David Toop compilation of Electro, post-electro/proto techno and Techno: Various - Ocean Of Sound 3: Booming On Pluto: Electro For...

I have seen DIJ with NON in Milan (both played so awful that they deserved to be executed in the name of social Darwinism) and you won't believe the mix of fascist and pouser all in black and in religious admiration. I remember i wore a red shirt. There were a few gorgeous goth girl anyway...

Nurse With Wound. Try "Livin Fear of James Last".

goobay Syd

Is this really a bit of scary (and socially miserable) music distopia? Here . You can be a MOGGER too... "show the world who you are as a musical human being [...] MOG can automatically show you other MOGGERS with a taste in music that most resembles yours" so you can hunt them and kill them...

No, Element of Crime is first, then Epidemic follow, then Europa (best Lars film ever with the exception of Riget) close the E trilogy. Epidemic is indeed very very strange and disappointed many and was a total flop at the box office. But I loved the end. Without too much spoiling, Epidemic is...

White Stripes, that band from 1963 that is often cited as an influence by Cream and Jethro Tull? Yah they had some good riff at the time... Roger Sanchez best song wasn't on a Toto sample? Toto, that's was you really should listen to... really.

Sakamoto had done some strange disco/synth pop/fusion records while in YMO, before B2-Unit. Not that I have heard the albums, but I have a very beautiful Sakamoto japanese double CD compilation ("US", ultimate solo) and the first 3 tracks are in this vein (this compilation is in chronological...
