    Old School Hardware

    "Making use of" would be a stretch these days, unfortunately. But I've had a Yamaha RY-30 for some time and I'm really fond of it. It's a synth hiding in a drum machine. Each pad can layer two sounds, each of which can be pitched, filtered, panned, etc. And it accepts cards from SY synths of...

    Where is Kodwo?

    We had a week of John Akomfrah/Black Audio Film Collective screenings here last Fall. Really enjoyed chatting with him after Last Angel of History. I asked him about Otolith Group's Drexciya doc and apparently he's got something related in the works.

    mainstreaming of VICE // VICE mainstream

    They had a rep as sleazebags when they were starting out in Montreal. Nothing about their free rag or anything they've done since has ever made me think otherwise. They capitalized on casual misogyny and racism, and apparently they've built an empire catering to privileged bro-ness. They...

    Krautrock Bit Me In The Ass

    Excellent, thanks. Lots to check out here. :cool: Grabbed the Cope book and the blog post for later reading. Curious about Krautrock: Cosmic Rays and its Legacy. It doesn't look all that substantial but there are pieces by David Stubbs, Erik Davis, and others.

    Krautrock Bit Me In The Ass

    So, any Krautrock book recommendations, especially things that go beyond biography/hagiography? Thinking of this for a start but something broader would be good... I re-watched the BBC's Krautrock doc the other night and I want more on the social side (post-war reinvention, fighting Nazi...

    Meta-spam?!?

    Thanks a lot sufi :cool: I went through the recent registrations yesterday with the idea of pruning suspicious ones (lots from sina.com and coolbags.eu or whatever). But I could only see a way to do it one at a time so I backed off. Should be a big help because I think we did have sleepers.

    Meta-spam?!?

    Roots of Plasticman mix

    I'm going to enjoy this. Thanks Benjy! Absolutely agree about those early tune. They were an important part of that Slimzee sound which is what really hooked me. White Gloves is mental. I still play that, the rare times I play.

    Escort agency in prague

    That's that Vatican Shadow side project, right? With the singing camgirl samples and tinny chatroom soundscapes? Edgy.

    Unfortunate names

    Bonesteel could go either way: porn actor or manufacturer of fine flatware. (Along the same lines, Lovecraft would be an excellent name for a brand of strong, dependable sex toys.) Rider Strong: child star, magnum cum laude from Columbia, son of King Strong.
