Then if you haven't yet you should DEFINITELY hear their remix of the
new Curve single - even if you wouldn't touch Curve with a ten foot
pole, their remix of "Rising" is absolutely astounding, at least as
good as the tracks on Amorphous Androgynous. The Drum Club mix and
the Trent Reznor mix of the other songs are pretty good too,
particularly if you do indeed like Curve; but the FSoL mix is another
one of those "we can call it a remix because we sampled, processed,
echoed and gated the lead vocals" kind of remixes.
The single is called "BlackerThreeTrackerTwo", ANXCDS 42.
I also found two other cool shmoos at Ameoba two nights ago:
S.E.T. in the 90's: The On-U-Sound Remix (ALCA-244) (Alfa records)
1) a~h (long version)
2) a~h (short version)
This is yet another group like YMO, it seems... the long version is
somewhere around 12 minutes long and the short version 9. It might
as well be YMO remixed by Adrian Sherwood for all intents and purposes;
I got it used for $9.95, and consider it worth that but not double that.
The booklet inside, however, lists several other Japanese bands "In the
90's":
YMO in the 90's (Pete Lorimar remix) (Y1500)
Sheena & Rokkets in the 90's (Craig Leon mix) (Y1500)
Snakeman Show in the 90's (Adrian Sherwood mix) (Y1500)
Casiopea in the 90's (Taava Mote remix) (Y1500)
Sandii & Sunsetz (The Bomb the Bass remix) (Y1500)
Jun Togawa in the 90's (The Infinite Productions mix) (Y1500)
Yukihiro Takahashi in the 90's (The David Lord remix) (Y1500)
Toshinori Kondo-Ima in the 90's (Bill Laswell remix) (Y1500)
Ryuichi Sakamoto in the 90's (Mark Plati remix) (Y1500)
Sumo Stomp: The Ultimate in the 90's Collection (Y2,500)
And then they list a couple other Japanese dance collections with names
like "Happy Happy" and such.
And finally, I got the new Fortran 5, Bad Head Park (finally) and really
really like it. But that was probably in an XDZ review so reviewing it
would be redundant. :)
