for those who care, this is from the mike paradinas interview at
http://www.furious.com/perfect/uziq.html , he mentions melodies on mars ,
quoted below...
PSF: You were talking up the record you did with Aphex Twin (Expert Knob
Twiddlers) for a while. What do you think of it now that it's been released?
Mike P"It would have been better if it had been released in '94. At that
time, that style was something that no one else had done. It was an updated
version of easy listening and funk. He heard my Jake Slazenger stuff and I
heard some of his stuff that didn't come out ('Melodies on Mars'). We had
wanted to do that for a while and that was just the tip we were on at the
time. It wasn't like anything anyone heard before really. By the time it
did come out, a lot of things came out like Carbon Trio and there was a lot
of revived interest in easy listening. Neither of us was prepared for it.
It was just a tiny little thing done in a flat in London by some friends of
Richard's- the place is called Johnnie's. So it takes time for stuff to
come out but I still like it. It's got some nice tunes on it. Some of my
friends have said that it's their favorite album. I don't think it's
BRILLIANT but I think we can do a lot better next time. "
