Its been a Chris and Cosey week and its highly likely to continue being so here atop foxhill for quite a bit longer I reckon.
Exotika & Take 5.
Pagan Tango.
Cabal.
Live at L.E.M.
Feral vapour of the silver ether.
I've also been listening to a fair bit of recent techno. Mostly from Deep-X recordings and their other imprint Shoki as well as Zimmer.
Oh aye and theres an incredible modular synth based release I've been playing a lot from the Zymogen label.. Werken - Sum. There are things in the production of this album that are blowing my mind and leaving me slowly rocking while repeating the word 'how.. how.. how..' endlessly. But then again, I'm always easily disturbed when a mid range sound appears to be coming from five feet to the right of a speaker directly level with it's drivers. Wtf.
One more I almost forgot.
Mokira - Cliphop. something last.fm rec'd to me. Its pretty good, but a bit of a *shrug* soooo...... when I dwell on its general *bzzztness* too much. Tis clever though.
Edit : In short, mark my fucking words, the zeitgeist is my bitch again and EBM/techno is going to be frigging huge again very soon.......... Or maybe it is already and I'm too old to be paying attention properly.

White Hills- They've Got Blood Like We've Got Blood, Heads on Fire, A Little Bliss Forever and the new, eponymous masterpiece. A review should be up on the Quietus any day now!
The Sticks- S/T. Fans of early Fall, The Monks and similar stuff should check this out. 20 songs in 38 minutes, on Upset the Rhythm records.
The Prefects- Peel Sessions. The Sticks also reminded me of these coves somewhat.
Dr Feelgood- Down By The Jetty
The Long Ryders- State of our Union
Janis Joplin- I Got Dem Ol' Kozmik Blues Again, Mama
Bob Dylan- Blonde On Blonde
Nick Drake- Made To Love Magic
Scott Walker- Fire Escape in the Sky

If they'd just made this one album and then split up ... Unneccessarily dogmatic, perhaps, but some of this sounds a world away even from the epic wall-of-sound ballads that dominate their subsequent late 60s output, let alone the chest-flashing falsetto swagger of their disco fever-era stuff. More psychedelic than anything else theye ver recorded, occupying similar territory to "Oddesey and Oracle" or The Left Banke. Sure, they were too in awe of "Revolver" -era Beatles for their own good, but in 1967, who wasn't?
That's a great album and definitely worthy of the lofty company of Oddesey and Oracle etc. All their first three albums are cut from the same cloth I think, though with somewhat diminishing returns, and then 'Odessa' is their second masterpiece in its own right. Personally I'm happy to stick with them up till 1973's country-rock 'Life in a Tin Can,' and even their disco era is undeniably great pop music, even if not something I'm going to neccesarily sit down and listen to through choice.
