Prodigy - Dirtchamber Sessions

I remember when this came out, and ibought it because it used WTIL?, but I didn't like it. Now I've come back to it - 4? 5? years later I think it's a great mix CD. Good for the car! Funny because I don't really like 'dance' I always say, but of course I'm here and I had a great time at the Fat Boy Slim thing on the beach the other year, so perhaps I'm just not very good at making up my mind - or am I?

Has anyone heard from Matthew Heft or is he still on the list? Last time I head from him was about 2 years ago. He used to live in Wisconsin.

Wild Swans remixes (part 2)
by John Milne 08 Aug '04

08 Aug '04

The unreleased remix from 1990 was (apparently) the eponymous track from the Wild Swans "Spaceflower" CD. I believe it was done by Bill Drummond on his own - but has never been released because it was too "out there" for the record company Sire. A planned release of the "Melting Blue Delicious" single was also canned as a result. I don't know if this interests anyone - but it does mean there's a BD (but not JC) remix from 1990 somewhere in the unreleased vaults!

Wild Swans remixes
by John Milne 04 Aug '04

04 Aug '04

Hi everyone, A few days ago I joined a Yahoo Group for the Wild Swans, and was reading a discussion thread about the "St Petersburg" remix of "Melting Blue Delicious" (which was done by Drummond and Balfe in 1990). According to some of the Group members, Drummond actually remixed two tracks from the Wild Swans album "Space Flower" (the first being "MBD"). Does anyone know what the second track was? Also, "MBD" was meant to be released as a single in 1990 (the cover art can be found at http://www.copefan.co.uk/ in the "Skyray" section) but was never released. I wonder if these two Drummond remixes were going to be the b-sides? John PS - The guy who runs the "copefan" site plans to write the history of Zoo Records, and seems to be looking for contributions. PPS - For those who don't have the Drummond remix of "MBD" it is currently available on the compilation CD "Unearthed Classics Volume 1" - a collection of obscure tracks from Liverpool. -- Whatever you Wanadoo: http://www.wanadoo.co.uk/time/ This email has been checked for most known viruses - find out more at: http://www.wanadoo.co.uk/help/id/7098.htm

Drummond Interview (slightly off-topic?)
by John Milne 04 Aug '04

04 Aug '04

Sorry, Paul, it seems like the rm link does not work, unfortunately. Hopefully the files will be moved into the "music" section soon, escpecially since there seems to have some attempt to move them already. Alternatively, maybe someone (Paul, Chris?) might be nice and want to send a CDR of the interview to me? ;-) Maybe we could start a distribution tree. I sometimes think this would be easier (and more productive for those without broadband) than ftps.

Drummond Interview (slightly off-topic?)
by Bert Klauninger 04 Aug '04

Hi! I have read about the "Bill Drummond Interview on Scottland Radio" on the KLF Digest - I've tried to download it from ftp.klfcentral.com/incoming but my ftp client says that this directory is restricted to uploads only. In the /music directory there is only the beginning (about 5 secs) of the interview. I've tried to contact Olav directly (donate(a)klfcentral.com doesn't work). So could you please help me in downloading this stuff? Thank you very much! Best regards Bert K

FYI ------ Forwarded Message From: Aquarium Gallery <info(a)aquariumgallery.co.uk> Date: Tue, 3 Aug 2004 19:01:50 +0100 To: steve(a)aquariumgallery.co.uk Subject: JAMES CAUTY / STOT21stCplanB Hello All, Below are details of just a couple of the many exciting projects we're currently involved in. More news on Jamie Reid prints and Billy Childish's new novel coming soon. S. JAMES CAUTY / BLACKSMOKE The Aquarium in association with Blacksmoke proudly present a new edition of prints. 4th, 5th and 6th Class by James Cauty A set of three prints featuring the Queen wearing a gas mask. 26" x 24" pigment prints on 260 gsm semi-gloss archival paper in a limited edition of Â£150 signed and numbered by the artist. Â£195 inc. VAT each Also available soon: BLACKOFF size, media & limitation to be confirmed More images are available on request. The artist & musician James Cauty ? cofounder of legendary bands The Orb and KLF, and art activists K-Foundation ? created Blacksmoke in 2003. It is an occasional art collective and musical group, focusing on issues of global environmental concern. The first release was a series entitled 'Blacksmoke Stamps of Mass Destruction' in response to the war on Iraq. That artwork appeared dramatically on the front cover of The Times newspaper on the 4th June 2003 due to the fuss the Royal Mail made over an alleged breach of copyright. More recently the Royal Mail have used legal muscle to force a small London gallery to withdraw their set of prints from sale. Their request that the prints be either destroyed or given to them is still under dispute. STOT21stCplanB In conjunction with the publication of this new set of prints The Aquarium will also be offering for sale a set of prints created by STOT21stCplanB. Individually titled ?Lick My Arse?, ?Lock Him Up & Throw Away the Key the Thieving Talentless Cunt!? and ?We Always Hurt the Ones We Love? these images have been badly copied from the Blacksmoke Stamps of Mass Destruction and are collectively known as the 3rd Rate Jimmy Cauty Rip-off Stamps. Images available on request. The musical wing of this anarcho art noise group will be breaking their policy of complete inaction by making a debut live at the TDK Cross Central Festival curiously billed as Scorpio Thunderbolt on the NU Cult Alliance stage. A spokesperson for the group said: "By appearing live we intend to destroy the entertainment industry and drag rock music down into the dirt where it belongs." As an afterthought he added: "We will almost undoubtedly fail." If you like the sensation of having your head pummelled into the ground by someone much smaller than you go check them out. Sunday 29th August On stage 6(ish) Tickets & info www.tdkcrosscentral.co.uk tel: 020 7833 9944 Kings Cross Freight Depot, off York Way, London N1. FREE CDs on request The Aquarium 10 Woburn Walk London WC1H 0JL United Kingdom Tel: +44 (0) 20 7387 8417 www.aquariumgallery.co.uk
