how is Laika classified? ... as a "dog" the band? i would say they were sort of birthed around the original trip-hop vibe of bringing dance music textures and tones and energy to more traditional song crafting. there's singing and stuff, and the mood is pretty heavy, but still warm. the musicianship is pretty top notch and they combine a lot of different elements (both style and instruments) very well. the only album i ever bought was SoundsOfSatellites, which is very good. and i wanted to get GoodLookingBlues (?), but i don't think it ever got domestic release in the states. i saw them on the second at Lollapalooza back in the day. they seemed to kick some ass live. a more interesting question is "what's the story behind their name?"...

I watched an episonde of The EGG on Public Television last night that was all about the sound archives in the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC. There they have thousands of records available for anyone to listen to with samples of everything from locomotives to people talking about their cats. (I mean literally EVERY sound imaginable documented and archived...) And they were interviewing DJs who explored sound creation with vinyl. One DJ showed how he would take two or more records and slice them up like pies... only to reassemble the two record pieces into a single record to create a rhythmic sampling of sound; the rhythm forming as the needle passed from one piece of one record to another... Very cool.

Oh yeah... and one of the archived sounds that were played was Laika's heartbeak as heard from the ground as Laika orbited the Earth. -matT nashville.tn --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

yea -I've got Silver Apples of the Moon - bought it back in '95. Saw them live with Tricky in Hollywood, back then. I forgot about the cd for a few years, and just listened to it again today, and I could see a great deal of heritance in what I listen to today. I was just curious 'cause while I've been listening to this stuff for years, I've never been "in the scene" nor cared about labels, history or sub-genres, til recently. Just wondered if anyone remebered them. Yea, Laika was the dog that went to the moon - what story was that?

The well known fairy tale called "the soviet space program." If I were to give them one of those stupid one or two word genres, I'd say ambient pop or post-rock. I got silver apples a few years ago, and while it's definitely good mellowing music, I wasn't really drawn in enough to investigate further. Maybe I'll give it another listen.

The story of Laika (the dog) is mentioned in National Geographic's January 2002 magazine, if anyone's interested. (with photos of the Laika's "space suit"). 8) -matT nashville.tn --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
