Does anyone else out there think that Scala (yes, the Seefeel offshoot) predated the "Sonic Mook Experiment" and "Electroclash" trends currently underway? It's a shame they're not around to get some recognition. -Mike --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

There were some similar elements there, yeah, although they were quite as "dirty" sounding or as self-knowingly ironic as a lot of the current artists in that scene. Their cover version of "Heart Of Glass" still completely owns me.

Scala's version of "Heart of Glass" was excellent and Mark Clifford is underrated, but he had nothing to do with Scala. Scala was the remaining three members of Seefeel with producer/friend Mark Van Hoen. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Right,. and Mark Clifford's project is Sneakster (w/ Sophie Hinkley). Pseudo-Noveau, the only full length Sneakster album i know of, has its good moments but overall Scala is/was more interesting. Seefeel was one of those projects that will probably never reach the interesting levels like those they achieved before they split. Another band this reminds me of with the same fate is Spacemen3. Spectrum and Spiritualized will never come close to meeting what spacemen3 did. All in all tho, its nice to still have em all around and enjoy their post group work.. It's kind of odd. (warning: going non-electric here) Bands of the time of seefeel that often drew comparisons suffered similar fates also.....MBV (snowpony? s'ok, just debbie tho), JAMC (freeheat/lazycame..bleh). hasn't seefeel done some live reunion shows? if so i need to find some recordings ;] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Pitchfork just put up a pretty amusing rundown of the worst examples of this phenomenon (members of a really good band going on after breakup to make really bad music) : http://pitchforkmedia.com/watw/03-06/afterglow/ Scala's #17 but my candidate for #1 (Slowdive->Mojave 3) only made #11. -- Eric Sorenson - EXPLOSIVE Networking - http://explosive.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Talking of Mark Clifford, has anyone else heard the new Disjecta EP? It was available through Warpmart for a while, now I think you can just get it through his record label ( http://www.polyfusiarecords.com/index.html <http://www.polyfusiarecords.com/index.html> ). One of the tracks on it also pops up on the Autechre ATP comp under a different name. It's pretty good if you ask me - fairly abstract, fractured stuff, but it has that nice warm samped guitar sound on a lot of it. Sounds a bit like a glitchy Brian Eno in places, around the time he was working with Robert Fripp. Let us know if you manage to track down any live Seefeel stuff - I loved that band and I'd be interested to know if they were able to replicate that sort of stuff live. Shame they're not about any more. Still, it's only another 7 years or so to wait 'til the next MBV record.
