the lindstrom remix of lcd's 'tribulations'

Redcrescent, I'm from Monterrey as well! Small world. OTM regarding banda music...I was blown away when I saw Banda El Recodo (one of the bigger, most well-known bandas around) live, the sheer loudness and energy of it was incredible and the band was TIGHT. Add a cowboy-boot-wearing...

i'm kinda surprised no one has mentioned herbert's djing... i've seen him twice and it was great, lots of maurice fulton-ark-krikor-mr oizo-spymania, basically clicky-bassy-bouncey house, and some dancehall, grime and classic shit thrown in for good measure ('abracadabra', 'show me...

he just remixed the chemical brothers good track

I just read The Elementary Particles, and I'm still kinda reeling, mulling over whether i liked it or not...nevertheless, I'd love to hear some opinions on it, and stuff about Houellebecq in general. From what I hear, he's quite the luminary in Europe...could somebody please fill me in?

the vitalic album!

he's djing here on the 16th, looking forward to it...dowloaded a set of his, lotsa superpitcher/ellen allien/blackstrobe/acid-y stuff, which kinda surprised me because i was half-expecting fluffy/dubby prog house i think it'll be interesting to check him out live

There was this MC called Big Boy, dunno where he's from, but his 'Mis Ojos Lloran Por Tí' was a huge huge commercial radio hit in Mexico (where I'm from) and in pretty much all of Latin America around what, '97 or '98...then he just petered out, but that song'll still rock inebriated...

The strings on the Tindersticks' songs are always ace, in my opinion...

Ulver's "Themes From William Blake's The Marriage of Heaven and Hell" Ex- black metal band invites fellow occult luminaries for word-for-word recitations of some of the book's text.

I just saw two short Coil-soundtracked Derek Jarman films and I really liked them...very dense, bleak, ominous stuff...my question is, was Jarman ever involved with any full-lenght movies of this sort? Could anyone recommend any Jarman/non-Jarman stuff that fits what I'm looking for? Thanks!

speaking of trevors...how about trevor jackson? he's always credited with being a record sleeve designer for eric b and rakim, stereo mcs, soulwax, etc....
