heh, just a cool tidbit, noticed that Phinnweb's Depth Charge/J Saul Kane page has been updated with info from the man himself: http://www.sci.fi/~phinnweb/jsk/news/ ..working with Alessandro Alesandroni? Who? I checked, and he's the guy who did the twangy guitars and the whistling for Morricone's "Good, Bad And The Ugly" in the 60s, plus scored a bunch of Spaghetti Westerns himself. smart. in fact, supersmart :) oo, and looking at the DC Recordings discography, I see a tie-in to the latest DeFocus release, even, seeing as Skye's released some stuff on DC - I forgot that. Same Skye, I take it? i think both DC Recordings and J Saul Kane are true originators, actually - he prefigured the whole chemical beats thing, and his work on his label with exotic film soundtrack reissues and weird intelligent triphop through to genius unclassifiable stuff like Tom Tyler make him thoroughly admirable. ok, blurb over ;) regards, h0l. ps - anyone know what happened to J Saul Kane's Hong Kong video label, 'Made In Hong Kong'? The webpage doesn't seem to have been updated in a long time.. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Heh, cool. That guy is honestly an amazing whistler. Alesandroni also wrote the tune that, thanks to the Muppets, will forever be known as "Ma-na-ma-na" (or however they wrote it). From the original it sounds basically like he's doing scat, but happened to go "ma-na-ma-na" rather than "doo-bee-doo-bee-doo", and obviously the Muppets leapt on it.
