Two bands of the late eighties focussed on the use of samples as a means by which to give both structure and substance to their music. Pop Will Eat Itself whose motto was: "Sample It, Loop It, Fuck It and Eat It" used huge quantities of samples for their songs, taking cues from films, television, video, radio, and other artists. However, following the transfer of a large sum of money, most of their samples were legally released by their former owners, and as such they were free to use the samples that they were given permission for. The KLF however, came from a different perspective. The KLF, whose name stood for The Kopyright (sic) Liberation Foundation, were two eccentric Scotsmen Bill Drummond and Billy Caughty. The KLF registered themselves as a business in 1989, used a huge number of samples, including borrowing the chords to a few Garry Glitter songs and recorded one album and six singles. The first three singles released all went to number one in the UK (3AM Eternal, Last Train To Trancecentral and What Time Is Love) and the album reached the top ten. The duo recieved their royalty cheques (for many millions of pounds), then declared their band bankrupt and disappeared from view. Because The KLF (the registered company) could not be sued because of it bankruptcy status, Bill and Bill got away scot-free. Their record company was sued by the owners of the originals that the samples originated from, and to cover the costs, they released the band's last three singles following the band's disappearance. The KLF intended their experience to be a artistic statement, as one year later the emerged from obscurity in Scotland for an art exhibition. Security for the event was very tight with only forty British journalists being permitted to attend the event in the middle of a cow paddock. The centrepiece of their exhibition was called 'Nailed To A Plank' and featured one million pounds (approx. A$2.2mil.) nailed to a very large piece of wood. The second exhibit involved another one million pounds and was called 'Up In Smoke'... ____________________________ The Domestic Terrorist website : http://www.geocities.com/thedomesticterrorist

Re: [KLF] Orange vinyl 5TOTP

I just received my 5TOTP vinyl. I made a scan for who ever is curious about the colour. Drop me a line and I'll send you a scan. So, try to think of an orange and see for yourself. It's definately not mustard. Maarten _________________________________________________________________ Meld je aan bij de grootste e-mailservice ter wereld met MSN Hotmail: http://www.hotmail.com/nl

RE: [KLF] Invisible Things Cauty Remix
by James Parker 29 Jun '02

29 Jun '02

I've only listened to it a few times but i quite like it. Its a drum n bass style quite different from much of his older work with an underlying dark feel to the sounds and distorted vocal. I noted that his 'disguise is [not] complete' as the credit for the remix is Greybeard/Cauty/KLF on the promo label. _______________________________________________ KLF mailing list KLF(a)mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/klf _____________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses for Frontline Ltd by the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service. ------------------------------------------------------------ This e-mail message and any attachment(s) are CONFIDENTIAL and may contain legally privileged information.

OT: Top 5
by Thomas Touzimsky 28 Jun '02

28 Jun '02

Hi, I had an interesting chat recently, discussing personal Top 5 lists for dance albums, and since we are running out of KLF topics at the moment... What would be YOUR personal Top 5 (dance) albums ? Releases that you can listen to from the first to the last track without skipping any song ? And, most interesting question why these ? I´m curious about your answers. Maybe some of us will find new material to listen to, that fills their players and influences them in one way or the other. My latest bought album did, definitively. cy@ Thomas

Re: AW: [KLF] chronological discography?
by TheMgnt＠aol.com 28 Jun '02

yes, but it's not in release order. Ex: the Timelords single i managed to find yesterday was released on TVT in 1991, i'm looking for a discography that would place it in relation to other cds released in the same year. I don't understand what you're asking. The discog puts every release in order of release date, Jan 1987 is before Feb 1987, etc. http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?klf Just load the whole discog and look for Timelords around 1991. Everything else released before and after will be listed before and after it in the listing. -paul Are you unknowningly spreading the Klez worm? http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.klez.e@mm.html ===========================================================

waiting video
by klf＠gamsworld.com 28 Jun '02

28 Jun '02

I had a few extra copies (PAL to NTSC) of "waiting" made when I had it converted. A few of you on the list wanted a direct copy of this. Send me an e-mail to klf(a)gamsworld.com if you want it. Also, I have the original PAL video cassette that I won on ebay for $180 US dollars. I'm selling it for $150 if anyone wants it before I re-list it on ebay.
