Though this might be a bit of fun!

Mine.... Hejira by Joni Mitchell..

Why...

Coz her voice is just so damn cool. Gentle and angry at the same time and JP plays bass on it..

I love Don Juan's Reckless Daughter too. But my fav album has got to be Snivilization by Orbital. Like that's breaking news to anyone here. Prodigy's Fat of the Land has grown on me too. They use a Prodigy track in the Fast and Furious 2 (???) trailer. I think that's the movie.

Shadow - Isn't that the moving shadow track with the huge movie score style intro with the woman talking? I loved the build in that.

Any idea where the vocal sample from?

Now you've got me thinking about D&B albums. Police State EP, by T-Power. Fucking awesome, rare as fuckity. Had 2 copies on CD and both got nicked.

Dub Syndicate, Echo mania was my first. I think Dubstation was my Second. I got confused.

Cap Sensible! I saw the Damned a couple of years ago when they came to the LA house of blues. It was fun being in a Mosh pit with kids pogoing, but I felt so old.

Nah, not as old as he. I felt old because the place was full of under 16s. It was interesting to see so many young kids into the Damned, but LA is full of Punk wannabes, so it's hardly surprising.

The Cap still looks young.

Influx- What does 'listen' mean? If you mean what would I listen to on headphones or play at home etc then yes, I mainly just listen to trance. In front of the computer, I listen to about everything here and alot of ametuer productions elsewhere...

My biggest problem is that I don't really listen to "hot" trance- I'm too young to go into clubs where it is played and I don't buy vinyls cause I'm not a DJ..so all the hot new stuff that is always raved about at trance.nu and tranceaddict.com etc etc I have never heard about. It's also probably why I usually make "older" style trance- cause that's what all my cd's are.

Jethro Tull "Living in the Past"
LMAO! If we're gonna go down that road Cream "Wheels of Fire" but it'd probably sound like shite to me now...or maybe not. And Zappa's Mudshark LMAO or Cleetus Areetus Aritus (sp).

Oh well off track so don't bother reading what I just wrote.

Old times fave album probably Electric Ladyland - The side with Rainy Day and Merman on it... (and don't forget Led Zeppelin II..)

New times 'The Antidote' Ronny Jordan, probably because I play guitar and he's so damn cool on that thing..

yeah, Hejira and Don Juan's daughter are classics... check out Shadows and Light, live Joni album with Jaco Pastorius, Pat Metheny and Donald Brecker, some unbelievable jamming with Jaco just ripping up the bass like no-one before or since...

Don't seem to make musicians like that any more..

Kids these days, bah, humbug.. anyone seen my zimmer?

i heard jaco played out much of his post-weather report days in a whirl of trouble.... but just the other day a young aspiring bassist told me he was killed by a bouncer.

i never even knew he was dead.

i saw weather report once......he was amazing.......that man.
damn....they were all amazing.

Yeah Zazza... you're right.. no-one even gets close to Jaco. He said once "I am the greatest bas player ever" and in a way he still is.

Clay.. Jaco got his head kicked in by a bouncer outside a club and dies from his injuries.. The fucking bounver got off scot free for it!

anyway read Jaco by Bill Milkowski. Jaco's life was harrowing to say the least!

SOme interseting choices here... figured there would be.

Yeah. There are alot of interesting choices, though I haven't heard of many of them. I'm allways listening to John Digweed's Hong Kong cd, but that is more of a compilation. My favorite album would then have to be Dixie Dregs - Night of the living Dregs. So much damned talent packed into all of their albums, but that is definitely my favorite.

brad: it's the same album as me... Although I have other favourites, it is always the first that pops in to my head when I get this question.

Carole King Tapestry, Erik B & Rakim Paid in Full and of course Saint Etienne Tiger Bay (or anyone of the three first really) which has (have) had a huge impact on me.

"I'm a political man......and I practice what I preach." I can hear Jack Bruce's voice in my head singing that song. That was on Wheels of Fire and there was another version of it on another album of theirs. Remember this loop?:

"Bop bop bop babop bop. Bop bop bop babop bop."

"Mmmmmm mm mm mm mm m mm m mmmm."

"free__________I__feel__free___________I__feel"

Shadows and Light is a great Joni Album. I have all of hers up to about 5 years ago.

Influx - track 17 is a good one, but track 11 where the snare drum fills in with a swept cutoff/res - that sends shivers up my spine every time. Glad there's someone else out there who likes DB. His mixes change so much from one disk to another.

Favorite album at the moment?

Its gotta be Interpol's 'Turn off the bright lights'

I haven't had a favorite electronic album in years, but ones I still go back to again and again would be...

Amber - Authechre

Fear and Loathing - Luke Slater (Mix)

Prototype - Grooverider

Among many others.

Gotta love that Shadow remix tho, that MS Blueprint compliation is excellent

Favorite Electronic album Autechre 'Tri Repetae'
Narcotic Influence By Emperion was the first techno track I knew by name.
I still love that track..........."giving them drugs taking their lives away"

And what about Infected Mushroom 'classic mushroom' or 'converting vegetarians'??

Orbital - The brown album

Because it's the most finished cd I know... there's nothing in there that shouldn't be in there... an because after 10 or so years it can still send chills down my spine...

Tricky - Maxinquaye

A very closed 2nd... when I first heard it, it was very different to what I was used to... it still is really... claustrophobic in a warm way.

Both are real masterpieces... untill recently I wasn't even able to play them in the car because I just couldn't concentrate on traffic anymore.
If you don't know them I'd suggest you listen to them... but then that's what probably everyone thinks about that favorite cd's...

Its taken me awhile to realise this but twenty years later I still listen to Murmur in its entirety. I could name more than a few "favorites" for a lot of different reasons but Murmur strikes some sort of sublime emotional chord that resonates in my psyche and has done so for a long time, its something visceral. Perhaps its something about Mitch Easter's production, something that I've never been able to put my finger on, that gives that record a feeling like no other I've ever listened to. There are some very haunting moments, an almost ethereal quality to some of the tracks yet there is nothing terribly sophisticated sounding about it all. It would be easy for me to pick something else for a number of "intellectual" reasons but there is no other record I've ever listened to so consistantly for such a long period of time. It must be my favorite.


Of course, its also an artifact of a time period that will never happen again in my personal history or rock & roll's so I can't discount that influence. Murmur came along at a time when independent music and college radio mattered most, was still under the radar, still had an innocence about it and had yet to become self aware. Anyone who listened to college radio from around 1978 to 1986 may know what I mean. Murmur almost seems like a sort of place marker for that era.


The Cocteau Twins' "Blue Bell Knoll" would most likely be next. Nanci Griffith's "One Fair Summer Evening" might follow but then again so might Future Bible Heroes' "Memories of Love". I would be remiss if I didn't consider David Bowie's "Hereos" but Its probably more of a "creatively influential fav" sort of thing than personal fav if you know what I mean. "Rocket to Russia" and "My Brain Hurts" couldn't be left off any sort of list but of course this isn't a list.
If it was...

Fluke - Risotto is complete like Mozart (should say Underworld - Second Toughest is also up there)

I still listen to The LA's (only) album - check Lee Mavers out - what a fn guy

Primal Scream - Screamadelica and Give Out But Don't Give Up

Lajko Felix (es Zenkara) - second album (brown card container) is incredible fiddle music - I spent the day listening and it plays live

Stone roses first album (though the singles were better)

Jonny Cash - Live @ Fulsom Prison + Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris
Grievous Angel

Somehow I will say The Colourblind James Experience - "A different Bob" is a really funny tune and the albums all contain chestnuts

Stop me

Tough one... NIN's Downward Spiral is a good pick Yonce.. KMFDM - Nihil & MDFMK. Front Line Assembly - Implode. Crystal Method - Vegas..

Lots of old metal shit too - Blizzard of Ozz & Diary of a Madman are masterpieces. Metallica's ...And Justice for All. Prog rock - The Wall, Signals (Rush), Fragile (Yes)... 90's rock, anything from Alice in Chains was awesome.

I feel like an oddball now. Fucking dance musicians

no apsolute favorites, but i always keep on coming back to these ones:
(in no particular order)

model 500 - mind and body (moody pop from a dark future?)

innerzone orchestra - programmed
(techno guy tries to put a jazz band together)

sly & robbie - drumandbass strip to the bone by howie b
(robots getting a suntan on a jamaican beach?)

black uhuru - dub factor (when in doubt, put this on)

ninja tune - funkjazztical tricknology
(got me into trip hop, into buying records, hence to dj'ing and dnb)

progression sessions vol.1 (severe emotional ties to this one, and all-time dnb no.1!)

Ok theres LOADS of masterpieces, could name 50 of them here or sumthin (focusin on electronic music). But i'll only name one very important. And we have to go back, not til the beginning but way back.. At the time when East 17, Roxette, Toto, Kris Kross, U96, Shamen and Erasure had hits. A record i listened to before i got my first pubic hair.

1992 - The Prodigy Experience - what a rush! still in 2003 (ok in these days some parts feels a bit annoying, but what the heck!). It must have been a giant impact for this type of music. And for me it was the start.

Holy shit, the opening 4-5 tunes of the album is nonstop energy of pure mental-speed-terror-madness! I don't even know if any other album can beat this take off, those breakbeats never seem to rest! It's smashing right up ya face!
Even the engineering is good for being old rave tracks - just listen how the bass sits well in Jericho (and there's loads of bass). It makes me wanna  . It's like Liam Howlett was given especially unnatural headroom for the bass - just for this bangin' track ;).

AYE! The whole album is a rush of creativity, details, unbelievable blending textures and nonstop action. It's like a.. really good action-movie (with only one love scene, "Weather Experience", and when the 303 comes in one of the lovers becomes a murderous alien and mashes everything up ;).
No one does this anymore - it earns a special award.

Everything is sequenced on a frikkin W-30 hardware sequencer, midi DAISY CHAINED with loads of equipment (time sync problems? not at all). And just about everything sits perfect though it's insane ;) (i can't imagine anything else in this special type of hardcore music that sounds better).

And Liam was a skinny young boy when he did this stuff.

(someone noticed that i listened to the record while writing ;)

i'm counting out time~....jf.....

did you see that show?

i cite "back in nyc" as the omen of things to come......i.e. sex pistols.
even johhny lydon was a big gabriel fan in those early days.

i also say> selling england by the pound.

2 most epic songs would be:
supper's ready
the musical box

that music still makes my skin come alive.

The Innerzone Orchestra album's pretty good, yeah, and I love the Jacques Lu
Cont Fabriclive.

If I had to choose ONE record it'd have to be DJ Shadow's "Endtroducing...",
simply because it kind-of kicked me a far way along the way to electronic music
happiness, and it's been with me in almost every country I've been to, every
climate I've been in, and there's always been something on it that felt right.

And when I saw him live it pretty much all clicked.

Of course, if I had to pick more than one, I'll have to pick about twenty, so I may
be some time...

d....hopefully you're talking about sir robyn!

the zep days of well.....they were not GOOD days for me.
troubled youth> you might say and no doubt those pricks flirted with all the wrong shit as is well-documented.
oh...the stories....evil little turds they turned out to be.
his majesties... page & plant...anyway they hated each other as they should've.
john paul jones...now there's a cool guy. 1 out of 4 ain't bad.

and bonham went the way a true rock hero does....in his own puke.

as i said...hopefully you were talking about the eternal sir robyn hitchcock.

not seeing him due to teeth...now THAT would've HURT!

Oh, man I love Robyn Hitchcock!!! Especially that album. Not a fan of the Egyptians!!!

Houses of the Holy was a damned fine album, but not Led Zeppelin's best... just didn't want to say Phys Graf for the cliche... that's every one's....

But really, I'm not so sure Zeppelin belongs on the lsit at all...

How about Severed Heads - Harry and Cindy Hospital!

or...

Chris and Cosey... mmmmmm!!! good stuff

best effort at identifying with something.. chrome, 3rd from the sun, maybe alien soundtracks, but just because they have a lot for you, esp. if you are liking distorted guitars.

nope. can't say i feel it enough to want favour.

of ALL the concerts in the world....d!!!!!!!!!!!!


there was no one show i've ever seen to top that one.
it ended with the him coming out as the old man.......the musical box.
first encore was.... watcher of the skies.
it never got as good or better than that.


which will lead to my new thread...the biggest sell-outs of all time.

starting with phil and company.


and i so loved tony banks as a keys man. he was the best and he just played.
