Love this pairing of composers & works. An essential listen for any fellow Zappaphiles.

Inferring from common reference points in the Industrial era culture, I reckon Marquis De Sade and.... I'd take a guess at Lautremont for the L, but S-N doesn't fit his real name or alias, unless in another language?

Apparently "in the works" for the Susan Lawly Legacy CD treatment, per William Bennett on Instagram. Even if just using the same vinyl-sourced remaster as the VOD box set, this would be incredible to finally have!

Will there be a CD?
Or is Tresor just the latest label to decide that there's not enough of us electronic music CD buyers around any more to bother catering to? Man I miss Ostgut Ton more than ever... |

The Missing Sense CD includes the Ostranenie 1913 LP mix of Dada. I owned both of these prior to owning Merzbild Schwet, hence I've only ever regarded Dada as the track with Eve Libertine's monologue, or as you put it - the track with the gong reverb...

After listening to this CD daily for a few weeks, I'm now convinced it's his strongest album since Surveillance Lounge. Yep, that good. A continuously-segued 74 minutes of Steve absolutely rearranging your brain chemistry.
It's almost a shame that I... See full review |

Incredible to see such a deluxe Come Org item on Discogs. Like the first commenter, I'd love to know what happened to the other copies, who bought them and might still have them. Wonder if such an exclusive item was 'made to order' a la TG24.

Just picked up a second hand copy of the original Japanese edition, and was getting seriously stoked for a 22-minute Strings Of Life on Disc 2 - only to find that it fades out at the 6-minute mark and the rest is silence!
Take it that's the same on... See full review |

The more I live with this behemoth of an album, the more I love it. Aside from the still enjoyable solo piano albums, it looks like Nils has been getting ballsier in his main output ever since the masterpiece of All Melody, and so dropping three hours...

Lovely surprise from Burial, I assumed he'd just wait till the depths of winter again to release something. But this is needed now, and it's bloody gorgeous. Like a slightly less stark and cold Antidawn, beautifully produced and will be a definite...

Just picked up a copy of this. No detail at all about where the recordings originate from, but I *think* from doing some comparisons that they are drawn from the Champs-Elysees recordings originally released in 1965. The disc contains eight tracks...

Same here, I'm intrigued to hear this illicit 'budget Burial'!

This old article just popped into my head: "The Shutov Assembly will cease to exist".
https://irdial.com/w34.htm Good to see that vinyl editions were eventually released! :) |
|
Love these Jive compilations that are a clash of the Blue Years and the Pink Years, must've been quite the head-scratcher for anyone who picked up something like this as their first TD purchase, esp. the extended vinyl/cassette edition!

My personal pick for greatest ever TG gig. Uncharacteristically low-key, with only a couple of vocal tracks, it's an hour-long dark ambient ooze of grimy grey goo.
I can work with this in the background, go to sleep listening to it, sit slumped on a... See full review |

A white cassette on Atlantic by 1990 sounds like it was more than likely some sort of Record Club issue.

Seconded. I just got hold of a copy of this version, and Cheepnis is way better than the Ryko I was used to. The rest all sounds the same so far, but hey it's my favourite Zappa album, I'd buy extra copies every day if money was no object.
|

Feeding The Monkies At Ma Maison as well, another good evolution of Zappa's work on the Synclavier (so nice to see that I'm not the only one who loves this aspect of his work!)
And also the non-Boulez tracks on Perfect Stranger, for what I think is... See full review |

Waited until both tracks had dropped before buying, to get a better handle on this release. It's fantastic - one side of Banger Burial, and one side of Short film for the ears Burial. Both should be early highlights of Tunes 2021-2029!

Dark Gethsemane was actually really good I thought, Space Cadet is ok. If he's sticking with the pattern of saving his best work for Hyperdub, fair enough - will be great to hear what comes next.

Hat-tip for an incredible review. That's the kind of "excruciating detail" that I can get behind!
|
|
This was my favourite Live Tribe tape! Think I remember them putting their own names into the lyrics of Iron Man...
|
|
Just noticed "Happy Jack" printed on the cassette at the end of Side One! Extra track, or just a misprint?
|
|
Wow, I tried running that 79s9d through an inflation adjuster, and it came to just over £56 (calculated from 1970 to 2017, the closest range it would go to). Definitely one for the well-heeled Mothers freaks back in the day!

This is interesting; can anyone explain the logic behind having ten copies of a track in a download, let alone calling nine of them "Filler Track"? Is it some sort of marketing idea that's been done elsewhere?

Kamin's line that inspired the Nurse With Wound album title Homotopy To Marie - "...and I silently explain to her of her homotopy to Marie" - can be heard at 4:47 in the YouTube video below.

"Chartered Tripe" has to be the funniest track title typo I've ever seen.

It's a quirk of Discogs that really needs fixing across the board, for artists who released a pair of albums close together. Fragile and The Yes Album are the wrong way round too; also John Martyn's Solid Air and Inside Out - that's just off the top...

Does it only have one side cut backwards (which one?) I've always read that this version was cut with both sides played backwards and orchestral music added to Side 2, but I could've picked that up wrong/ be confusing it with another version.

I remember owning this, bought new circa 2000. Time Fades Away sounded like the vinyl rip had been compressed to about 96kbps mp3 before transfer to CD!

Fantastic to see an original version of this tape! Is that "Terry Goldsmith" or something that's been written as an alias for Peter Christopherson? Wonder if that had anything to do with his job at Hipgnosis, and felt like he was somewhat...

Thank you Harold for so much spellbinding, soul-nourishing music. Plateaux of Mirror is going to start off my memorial listening tonight, right where I started all those years ago. RIP to a singular genius.

Great to finally be able to buy files of this great release, from Barker's bandcamp. All three tracks are great, but Neuron Collider is just mindblowing. Loved Utility & Debiasing, can't wait to hear what he does next.
|

Compi CD of Night Melody & Articulation is out now!
|
|
Anyone know if this contains the original mix of CSH, or the do-over?
|
|
Holy crap, well done Bureau B! Wonder if we'll eventually get a new digital reissue of these tracks? I can't be the only Schnitzler fan who's fed up with seeing that Captain Trip CD going for triple figures.

Should this really be sitting under Albums, as it's really a semi-official recording that Albrecht D released himself - isn't the Miscellaneous section a better fit?
Also, I'm not convinced the release year should automatically be the same as the... See full review |
