Re: New for 2018 until the other is found
All good. The LCD is very Suicide in style but a touch underwhelming. The Newman goes along nicely without really going anywg=here much. I agree that the Faithfull is the stand-out track with that later-period voice still as original as ever, and a fascinating song - there'll be repeated listens of ...

Re: Little Gems
Just working my way through the synth episode of 'Loaded' (as mentioned by Undi) and, with reference to the above, this came to mind.
It's basically Go-Go meets Kraftwerk:
Trouble Funk - Trouble Funk Express
I like it but could understand those that don't.

Re: Loaded
:D Learnt some things tonight, charging to get in a bar when they don't normally charge puts some people off. Alternating between decks and door isn't much to either. However, when the owner says it's the best night she's had since she's been there, says it was a good night. it would seem we are to...

Re: Little Gems
Kid Creole was both a stage personality and came slightly later in his career so a lot of his early music and production was as August Darnell in various bands - There But For The Grace... by Machine was one 12” I bought at the time and is a particular fave. You’re A Wonderful Thing Baby was his fir...

Re: Little Gems
Going back to the Loaded/No Wave themes, that punk-funk era was full of strange but rewarding musical diversions. I think it's been mentioned before but the Ze Records 'Mutant Disco' compilation album was a must-have at the time and included a number of Was (Not Was) classics as well as Cristina, Li...
Re: Loaded
Mark Lamarr tells that he gave up DJing because people kept asking for 'something I know'.
That and having someone come and ask him to play 'some funk' while a Funkadelic track was actually being played.

Re: Covers
Yes. Nice.
I've posted her a couple of times here and still have my original 'Disco Clone' 12".
Her second album (Sleep It Off) is said to be more to her taste (less dancey and darker) and is excellent. I've posted her Was Not Was produced Christmas song Things Fall Apart before and will again.

Re: Loaded
Very nice too! It's an ambition to learn the basics of DJing one day - I tried once or twice but it seems there's more to it than just playing my favourite tunes in a row. Either way I hope it goes well - I don't know if it's possible to record the set and put it online but I'd love to give it a lis...
Re: & beyond
I'll have to catch up with that one.
I'm quite keen on dancey synths but not much on noodly synths.

Re: & beyond
Exactly right, Undi.
I only saw the Tronic/Ware one and, although they’re both nice company, they could have filmed you and me in the pub and got more insight.
Nothing wrong with the musical choices though.

Just a disco classic with a bassline that just throbs all the way through:
