what should i get? (1 Viewer)

[snap-apple]

if'n you don't already have 'em:

do make say think: do make say think, this first album is more electro and laid back than their second album

autechre: incunabula or amber, these earlier albums are alot less hectic and more melodic than the later stuff

orbital: insides, their most organic offering

delgados: the great eastern, low get happy

beta band: hot shots 2, cleaner and more focused than their earlier stuff (which I actually like better but you gotta have the three ep's? shame on you if you don't)

plaid: double figure, much better than any of their earlier stuff, not a million miles away from boards of canada crossed with insides era orbital

super furry animals: rings around the world, their best album since the first, possibly their best album full stop (although i lurrve the b-sides album)

boards of canada: music has the right to children and also the in a beautiful place out in the country e.p., loverly organic electro shtuff or ambient techno or whatever you wanna call it

I recommend a bag of chips from the chipper in the George's St. Arcade, some pickled peppers form the stall in the middle, some hummus from the stall down the end and all placed in a baguette from Dunne's.

and ye wonder why yer breathin' rainbows?

re. autechre, theres a gescom 40 min ep on skam which seems to be like a set of outtakes from chiastic slide, but its quite nice too, a little dark, but not as highly tweaked as recent offerings. listening to it last night i felt great nostalgia for that period.

you know theres a new boc album coming out?

 

[herv]

oh, i forgot. chicks on speed (will save us all!)

one of last years bests.

brilliant.

"Amber" is still my favourite Autechre album - it's the loveliest, even if it's more linear than nearly everything else by them. (Too much twitch-fetishization around at the moment if you ask me.)

Also, check out the first Autechre Peel Sessions record. One whole side of it is taken up by a tune (the name of which escapes me) that ressembles a spacecraft about the size of Louth descending slowly on an enormous field of crickets, hovering there for a while, then ascending again slowly into the night.

It would make great Bar-Mitzvah music, I feel. Or Confirmation music -depending on your God.

"Drane" is the name. When reviewing the 12" for the Bubblebath I said "could have been their 'Born Slippy' ".

It wasn't.

Should you be lacking the following then I would reccomend them:

Some Kris Kristoferson, Johnny Cash and LPs

and something by Lou Reed specifically Berlin or New York

 

[anonymous coward]

[Rimbaud]

Well, Introducing..You can`t go wrong - its kinda cinematic album, cool beats,hard to describe. It cost around 20 quid to buy so i did`nt bother for ages..but when i heard it at a mates place...i made that giant step--its excellent, really.

Am i whispering???
Any one know where to get early manics singles, at reasonable prices??
