xpost yeah, the revisionism especially! i'm not familiar enough with world of echo to be very specific with my references(somehow i only got around to listening to it this week, even though i've been listening to The World of... for a long time!), but the album seems to function as one long crazy ass dream that folds in itself repeatedly. he could have repackaged it as a single song and it might be even more renowned than it already is.

Did the Red Hot Compilation come out eventually? Must check. Muhly & Pallett doing AR is one thing I gotta hear.

Mimi Goese (singer with Hugo Largo) doing an unrecorded AR song, first time I heard it was in the documentary just after he dies, set to a tracking shot of corn fields, it broke my heart.

wow Hector Zazou is all over that record as well
― sleeve, Thursday, 20 November 2014 20:23 (nine years ago) link
i saw a live performance by zazou to the film 'nanook of the north' and it was one of the worst things i've ever heard. not just bad music but offensive and tacky. i haven't bothered to check out anything else he's done after that.

Love is Overtaking Me is so beautifulIt's so trad pop rock but so personal and human and real to me, what a talent he could do anything

It's just astonishing, like a great cellist, great experimental music composer, great producer, great dance music artist, then made these little server power pop guitar songs
― kurt kobaïan (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 27 May 2015 03:06 (eight years ago) link
yup.
the 'instrumentals' show was lovely, and as i hadn't remotely expected anything other that material it was also a very very nice surprise to have them close with SPOILER 'is it all over my face?' SPOILER
