sounds of SANTANA vol. LVCMXXXXXIVIII

DBC219 World (of Dreams)'s Who Is Yahdoosh? CD

World (Of Dreams) is Wm. Berger, genius guitarist of Uncle Wiggly, DJ who spearheaded the Krautrock revival with his WFMU show "The Hip Bone," and occasional member of Smack Dab, the Gamma Rays and Princess Superstar. This is his homage to and fantasia on the sound he loves: the sound of Faust, Harmonia and Karuna Khyal, of steam-thick, mind-warping textures, prickly electronic drones and spidery psychedelic guitar. The first album in this series, World Without End, was a limited-edition LP that sold out almost instantly. Who Is Yahdoosh? is a series of five psychic phenomena manifested as extended audio dreams of the secret Autobahn exit in Brooklyn; it's also got three tracks from World Without End, and three more previously unreleased bonus tracks. Timeless and ecstatic, this album will pulse its way into your genes. $10.

that sounds like the righter idea...perhaps i need some of that. but'll need to get my hands on some of the devilweed to go along with it if im gonna delve into that sorta psych world ... ha i bought an uncle wiggly record of of that dude that used to run flipped out records once...mighta been the same day he conned me into buying a coupla bunnybrians seven inches, bless his wierd soul.

to be honest, I see people shopping at their webstore and when reading a reccomendation or reading a preview, not thinking, "is their a site I can download this at for a few cents less?"

dan, are you saying you think people will read and bounce? or read and buy? i dunno. ctrl-n and jumping to a bookmarked digital seller is a lot faster than leaving om and bouncing over to st marks or somewhere to see if you can save a buck, but...web commerce is as much about immediacy as it discounts...time will tell

ian's damnedright

and yr second pt, dan, is what i was thinking about while reading the article. brings up the old momus v om thing from a few yrs ago. i can see digital sales allowing for om to push the weirder littler artists that used to florish 'cause of consignment sales.

this reminds me i havent been in there in ages. i'm sure many of us have shopped there, vs. some oher possibly cheaper place, or purchased things we wouldn't otherwise because of our relationship to the store. i think the "need" for relationships is being overlooked in so much e-commerce and discussion of most internet/web based interaction (this is making me feel like i need to go back to school)

"To make room for all the upcoming stock we have decide to provide the following special offer: Any ten CDs for $70 (or $50 when shipped without jewel cases)"

i just think small is the way to go. basically.

i am not actually applying this to your situation, dan. i don't even really know what your situation is. i do hope that it has made you happy putting out stuff that you love. and you must get good responses from people. i'm gonna write something about that ike yard cd. very cool stuff. i never knew they existed in the 80's and i was a pretty hep cat.

since were still kinda talking 4cute here...ill throw up this bit from the tg review i wrote....oh god, when that thing come out?. its not as embarassing as i xpected:

Theoretical Girls no method of composition and performance takes in all the left over bits of life and renews their charge. In theirs songs, in their approach, youve got asphalt, baseball, pretty flowers, ham sandwich, bastard on the phone too loud, paycheck, no sleep, perfect cosmo, screenkiss, and crack. In a word: EXPERIENCE. And the electric din raizes the fields of your mind to sew the seeds of modern music.

thats a crap rip off of a great line from "pierot le fou"...

the re-issue thing is very important and tricky business...i do wonder how digital issuing is going to deal with all of that. how is cultural memory going to be changed?

i am still lovin this..need to dig up some more...thanks for the subtle push towards it

just grabbed his jean-michel jarre 1970-1974 comp, it's interesting. german psych & perrey kingsley cutups so far, wouldn't never have guessed it was him

there is a soft circle recording finally? i am so out of it re: new releases

the hunger (after 2 tracks now)...is pretty damned alright..dark, organled..i expected more instrumental interludes and freakin-out..but its damned nice so far...not compltely mindblowing, but on the right tip cerainly...lets hope they takeoff, though

i dont, scott. i think its best to be limited...ill never listen to it all otherwise...i dump a lot of what i dwnload, but...it still piles up
