IT’S ALIVE! (Easiest post ever)

Featuring:

(On friday I spent, no, it would be more accurate to say, sublimated, a respectable sum of money on Minimum Maximum, the 4 vinyl box set that contains this, and listening to it made me happier than a robot with an olive oil overdose).

Kraftwerk- Home Computer (live at Sala Kongresowa, Warsaw)

(This one goes to that Mr. Stuart trapped in the exam loop).

And.

Joy Division- Love Will tear Us Apart (Live at les Bains Douches, Paris)

(My favourite version of one of the best songs ever)

(it’s a picture disc!)

Is there anything more to say?

(whistles nonchalantly)

Tonight (it’s tuesday) at the Volks Club it’s Wrong Music 10 til 2, with the Phill Collis 3, Donna Summer aka Jason Forrest, Duran Duran Duran (WTF?), DJ Scotch Egg (who was incredible supporting Wolf Eyes last night at the Freebutt) etc, you can imagine the evilest noisiest jerkiest most fun music blasting out of the PA’s.

We’ll be there pulling a straight edge one, for once, if only cos it’s tuesday and have to save energies for the 20Jazzfunknite friday, Les Georges Leningrad at Nascent saturday.

Yay.

p.s. Check out Ulysses Speaks! for all your Nation Of Ulysses fanzine needs. We are already printing them and pretending we got em back in the day. Quite tempted to set up our own publishing all the old TG Coum media and Cosey stuff.

    Anyone checked out the v.early demo recordings of Frankie Goes to Hollywood b4 they got produced by Trevor Horn?

    Now that is a punk funk band! (they try and funk, but is all a bit more punk..)

    already got the first available (erm, second) issue of Ulysses Speaks printed and ready for photo-copying, it will be distributed amongst the masses on friday. It looks suitably lo-fi (as everything we do, it seems)

    P-Power!

    what da piddly? if ever anyone wanted to back-up the Joy Division as giant pisstake band theory, this isn’t a bad starting point. That’s a good thing in case anyone is wondering. ambiguity is the mother and cousin of funkiness.

    I don’t get it.
    I don’t think they are metal, or punk funk or a pisstake.
    They may be goths.

    Very strange, found thsi via a post punk blog in Oz.
    I really enjoyed wrong last night, although I thought DJScotchegg was far and away the best thing of the night (and without a soundcheck).
    You know he’s going to be deported soon, unless he can get something sorted, he’s on a student visa and it runs out soon.
    check out http://www.savethescotchegg.co.uk when we finally manage to sort out getting it hosted….
    Anyway good work, I’ll have to wait to listen to Love Will Tear Us Apart, as I’m at work. Shame.
    Now to see what it is you’re up to Friday.

    I only saw the Phill Collins 3, who were great, and Jason Forrest, who was quite good, prog breakcore is the way forward.

    But anyway, Scotch Egg was on par with Wolf Eyes on monday (Charlottefield were very great too)

    Ah, fings…

    Great set lists, dunno how you get the time for listening or blogging so much damn stuff. I don’t think I can make Friday, though, but now i know where you are I can keep an eye on you. I found you via NoNightSweats where I’d been soaking up the Oz Post Punk and Slow Rip stuff Phil has.
    Talking of Prog Breakcore, Dev Null was on that tip even more so than Jason, his set finished with a 15 minute track that was pretty epic, and when I spoke to him afterwards about the prog thing he was fairly candid about it.
    I saw Metronomy at the Spirit of Gravity last night, underamplified guitar and electronics, a bit like Ariel Pink I suppose, but less rocky and more Residents. Nice cd, too.

    The post punk archiving that gut has done is awsome, and nosweatnights is always a joy.

    Got Foreign Bodies – The Incredible Truth off there the other day (never ever be able to find that on black plastic) and have had to listen to it at least 20 times a day while revising.
    Glad you like the setlists, yeh – you know where we live.

    Only way we have time to get through stuff is cos we have nice readers who recomend good stuff i guess!

    Gonna go check out Metronomy for breakfast. Google “prog breakcore” does not produce any matches!

    Cheers
