Comment:
Filed under "experimental" but is only really half experimental music...Anyway, this is for a trade with Adobe Sound Labs, and actually inspired by his name - this is a mix which half-esperiments in the laboratories of sound. Basically, the two parts to the mix are the "raw materials" (experimental rock and dance, minimalism etc.) - music stripped down to its bare elements, (albeit melodious enough to be listenable) which you would mess around with to get the "finished products" in part 2 (slick, arranged, tuneful pop and rock) - the idea was really just to contrast them and show different ends of the spectrum of pop and rock. The title's from Mogwai's Dial: Revenge (good song but not on here) and means "a sour frequency brings on a headache / I change wavelength and ride the wave" - well, that's Mogwai's translation from their (highly amusing) website anyway; unfortunately I don't speak Welsh so I'll have to take their word for it! :)
Feedback:
Holy crap -- this is wicked-looking!
mmmmmm...yes: kewl !
Nurse with Wound, Laswell, Ryuichi Sakamoto (I have the Mr. Lawrence ver.), Labradford, Arvo Part, & a fave from Mr Costello...very nice, Marie

Wow - from John Adams to Deacan Blue. Scanner is high on my list opf bands I want to check out!
Excellant!
Lots of cool and excellent stuff here. The inclusion of Frankie Goes to Hollywood is a pretty serious letdown, though. ;)
June of 44 and Deacon Blue? What a fascinating mess. They just played 'Fergus' on the radio. It is, ha, a terrible song...
Da Iawn! Looks interesting (esp side one for me). Can't tell if that Welsh is right...too long since I was at school. But I do know nofio means to swim (as in pwll nofio = swimming pool).BTW The question you asked earlier - you can only put one image up on the site per mix but...there's no reason why that image couldn't be for both covers if you stick them together in a simple image editor. Hope that helps?
I'm with Heatherspace.., exactly! Viva the labs!
This looks really interesting and ambitious.
I like the look of side 1 a lot, Side 2 less but that could be a) Deacon Blue's inclusion (I know they're from your side of Hadrian's Wall)...I admit I own their first album (the one with Raintown On)and do actually like it...and b) Prefab Sprot's inclusion who I can't stand though I know he's a good writer...then again Side 2 boasts Gun Club, Roxy etc...anyway a thoroughly interesting side 1!
love it. both sides have sweet flow.
What Rob said
great idea, brilliantly executed
I'm with Valis!
