    (the inevitable dumb) BEST OF '06 (thread)

    really this year have been musically speaking depressing, i have, when possible, really been with my mind elsewhere (no, i don't take drugs...), like on Studio One clash in the '60, or at the Hacienda in the '80, or listening to jazz at the Vanguard in the '50, or to classic and avantgarde disco...

    greatest bass players (or basslines) ever

    I LOVE BASS (and that include jazz double bass, electric bass or bass machines). just listened Le Freak by Chic, surely one of the overplayed songs ever, and not even one of the best Chic song, but, damn, when at the middle of the song the bassline comes in evidence, it's totally bliss... so...

    Cd86

    what you gentle people thinks of this Bob Stanley comp? I love indie-pop, albeit Reynolds it's right when he wrote that the music sometimes lacks 'balls'; i think it was a reaction to too much 'testosterone rock' on '70 and '80 AOR radio, and also a reaction to too grey goth (something to which...

    Musical Human Being

    Is this really a bit of scary (and socially miserable) music distopia? Here . You can be a MOGGER too... "show the world who you are as a musical human being [...] MOG can automatically show you other MOGGERS with a taste in music that most resembles yours" so you can hunt them and kill them...

    sonic youth are old and boring

    Robert Christgau from Village Voice: "Forget "edge," or whatever the edgy are calling it these days. I wish we could forget their non-youth in the bargain, but that wheeze will remain with us—they create from what they know. So let me put it this way: Sonic Youth are the best band in the...

    italo disco

    "in the sublime the filth, in the filth the sublime" (you're advised now). ok, some italo disco comps suggestions for the curious; '80 italo disco made in italy, even if they sing in (funny) english and this stuff was mostly intended for export (germany and chicago and japan being the most...

    Klaus Schulze

    I have Irrlitch and Cyborg, both masterpieces. Wondering... are other records interesting, even if not as good as the first two (like every krautrock story tell)? Mirage, Moondawn, X, are worth buying? thanx, francesco

    The Residents

    I have "Meet the Residents" and "Third Reich'n'Roll" by The Residents, both I like but far from being my favorite records ever. Listened one time years ago to "Eskimo" but it didn't, in that occasion, catch my attention. Now I have seen two double CD reissued by Mute, "Mark of the...

    It basically just took a hundred years for comics to become good

    I use as a thread title a phrase taken from alo here to express some Dissensus. As much as i love Ware, Clowes, Tomine, Moore, Morrison and a few others, comics have always been good, actually more good than now: Ignatz, Segar, Little Nemo, Eisner, Kirby, Ditko, Lee, Buscema, Go Nagai Devilmen...

    Underground NDW 1980-1983

    Underground NDW 1980-1983 No possibility Matt of you presenting this compilation to a label interested in reissues, like Soul Jazz or else? It would be great, if they could get to licence the tracks and issue it. The booklet you just wrote! I always would love to do something like you did for...
