i've been having extended basia/swing out sister moments lately during my personal listening sessions

i love the way the artwork on those atari cartridges makes it look like it concerns some futuristic laser-jai alai game
...forgot that atari used that bauhaus font on their stuff at the time

I think I now like Twilight World better.

Male Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Nutsack (Abbbottt), Wednesday, 29 February 2012 01:18 (twelve years ago) link

I went to a head shop with my brother where they sold records in the back, mostly the same selection as a thrift store but w/fewer MoTabChoir records. They were all $5 or less with the exception of a copy of "It's Better To Travel," for which they were asking $35! wtf?

It's priceless.

Gos she was hot but that voice...like mayonnaise. Mayonnaise on everything.

mayonnaise on sushi -- yum

the only time i've ever been in a photographer's studio (he did fashion photos and actor headshots) he had a mini-stereo with like 5 CDs next to it and BEST OF SWING OUT SISTER was one of them and i thought, "perfect"

Wow, look at this guy:

John "Johnny" Thirkell is a British trumpet and flugelhorn player, who has appeared on hundreds of pop, rock, and jazz recordings. Through the 1980s and early 1990s he was on at least one album in the UK Charts continuously, without a break, for over 13 years.

Their pledgemusic is one of the laziest I've ever seen: we might make a record eventually, in the mean time pay to see us doing coursework about and try and come up with ideas.

"Doing coursework" wtf autocorrect? *dicking*

suffeeciant attreebution (aldo), Sunday, 22 November 2015 18:26 (eight years ago) link

I spent a lot of time dicking about the time of my first year at university.

Oh god, this song is so classic it isn't even funny.

Working night & day, I tried to stay awake... (Turrican), Wednesday, 25 January 2017 20:00 (seven years ago) link

I heard 'Breakout' while shopping but I must have misheard the lyrics because I spent about a year googling variations on 'oh freakout' and 'well so do I' without success. then someone bumped this thread and I had a big aha moment when I looked it up on youtube. thanks ilx!

I don't care how bad the horns have aged. Love this tune.

Chantilly Bass, Wednesday, 25 January 2017 20:20 (seven years ago) link

the three remixes at the end of the reissue are really fun
