LCD Soundsystem - American Dream, the album.

and here's a professional review.

Heard this a couple times recently, Dave Clarke & Mark Lanegan

Well, at last it's that time of year again when it's time to dig out the This Mortal Coil tunes.September is finally here and we can finally chill out and relax, now that the eternally disappointing and depressing English "summer" is finally over thank goodness and we can enjoy some genuinely hot September days and nights.Phew.

Slowdive.Was into some of this lot's stuff back in the day 1991.They released their first album in 13 years earlier this year and i've just got round to giving it a listen.This song really is quite eerily hypnotic.

This from their Filigree & Shadow album , 1986.Yet another Tim Buckley cover they did but it really is great.


"Then you be damned!" I screamed to the Hobo;
"Leave me alone," I wept to the Hobo;
"Turn into stone," I knelt to the Hobo;
And he walked away from my fleeting house

You have a good reason for not recognising her. She is Gavin Russom and is perhaps taking a walk on the wild side (to borrow from Lou R) at the moment. So 'she' used to look like a 'he'. NME has the story here,


EDIT: I've just realised there's an extra track called Pulse which you can download for free from LCD's website. Which I'm now doing.

This is ace.Actually an old track from 1979 or something but i heard it on Nemone's show the other week for the first time.


Lori And The Chameleons - Touch

edit: Lori And The Chameleons included Bill Drummond apparently, and Dave Balfe (later or then of Teardrop Explodes?) and was on Drummond's Zoo records.

Not sure I've ever listened to the floatation mix of Confusion. The addition of the "WRL"s and the lack of vocoder on Bernard's voice make it sound slightly more New Order-y than the PP Reconstruction.

Still on a Kraftwerk tip trip

Showroon Dummies- picked up a vinyl 12" of this a few years back and a video remarkable for the fact it has a few seconds near the end of Kraftwerk members Ralf, Florian, Wolfgang and Karl dancing.

MGMT, "Little Dark Age"

My roommate and I have been awaiting their return for quite a while, and we couldn't be more pleased. I'm adoring the synth bass on this track, and the production is (to these ears, anyway) very nice and clear, with each timbre easily discernible.
The band, I think, seldom get the artistic credit they deserve. Or, at the very least, there is something admirable about their blatant willingness to experiment with their sound. Each of their three albums has a distinct character, and each is excellently produced (the second being produced by Peter Kember of Spacemen 3). In short, I am very excited for MGMT's fourth full-length release!
