wl: vinyl white-label promo or test pressing release
tp: test pressing
Definitions:
test press: Vinyl test pressing release, this is usually made for the record
company to decide if everything is OK with the pressing - like
it says - it's a test pressing. Sometimes a company will press
extra copies and use it for promotional use. (White labels are
literally the same as test pressings).
acetate: This is pressed in very small quantities and is actually a metal
sheet covered in acetate material. It is made for the producer/
artist/record company to have a listen before they make a test
pressing. It can only be played a few times before it wears out
- but because it is so limited, can be very expensive for
collectable artists.
promo: Promotional release "Not For Sale" & "For Promotional Use Only"
Usually sent out to places where it would be an advantage for
the artist/group to be seen or heard, i.e. radio stations, DJs,
magazines and news papers, etc.
demo: This is a cross between a test pressing and a promo and is
usually used for promotional use. Not commercially available.
studio tape: The use of the studio tapes are purely internal to studios,
use these working tapes for testing different mixes or level
of sounds, etc. Not commercially available. This could may be
confused at using with demo tapes.
radio show: A release specially recorded for radio airplay.
bootleg: Unauthorized & unofficial release of previously unreleased
material consisting of concert recordings, studio outtakes,
rare remixes, and radio or television broadcasts.
Some old bootlegs on vinyl and CD are very interesting and
quite collectable. Usually they are live or unreleased tracks
and be of dubious sound quality (from poor to excellent) as
some bootleggers will release anything.
pirate: Unauthorized release of previously released material without
attempting to make the album look like an original.
counterfeit: Unauthorized copy of an officially released album.

3:20 Talk Talk (video 2) **
** Talk Talk (version 2) video starts with the top view of a
spinning record, then shows the band performning in cage-like
contraptions, clip essentially has the band banging out the song
in a futuristic looking set, with cylindrical cages, lots of
angle chopping, plus the `panavision' or `letter box' framing.
The version 2 that seen on TV directed by Brian Grant.
Talk Talk (version 1) video - directed by Russell Mulcahy - is
a different unaired version to "version 2". The "version 1" on
the Natural History video compilation is quite different, with
lots of people captive with their mouth apparently taped over,
as Mark Hollis wanders around an East End slum.

Special Norwegian reissue: original UK CD (has the original
booklet with 'yellow bird inside a cage' artwork and back black
inlay sleeve) housed in a unique slipcase with wonderful butterfly
artwork. Actually I'm not sure it's James Marsh's art on the cover.
The slipcase says "Slipcase designed by MutantDesign". If it's not
Marsh's work, it is certainly inspired by one of his coverarts for
Talk Talk.

First UK pressed CD came in clear jewel case, of course with
clear tray. Second UK pressed CD was released on June 29, 2001
via EFA and housed in digi-pak picture sleeve. Sleeve and disc
label has the "Dodo" artwork by James Marsh same as on the inlay
picture sleeve of first UK CD. This issue contains handwritten
lyric to "Ascension Day". Factory wrap also has a small EFA
sticker with catalog number "CD 16726". Third UK pressed CD
issued via EFA as well, came in standard jewel case, and it has
same artwork on front inlay and disc label. Very plain issue,
credits and lyric are missing. Also has the another EFA catalog
number "CD 16726" printed on back sleeve.

In Concert - 384
TALK TALK
Talk Talk are a London band whose succes began in 1982 when
they had their first hit single with song called Today. Since
then they've had regular hit singles and three top-selling
albums, The Party's Over, It's My Life and The Colour Of Spring.
Talk Talk was conceived in the North London suburb of Tottenham
in 1981 when budding songwriter Mark Hollis needed musicians to
help him make recordings for a publishing company. Mark was joined
by drummer Lee Harris and bass player Paul Webb and the three have
been the cornerstone of Talk Talk ever since. A few live dates
around the London clubs, with the addition of Simon Brenner, the
first of many keyboard players, soon brought the band a recording
contract and their first LP, The Party's Over, was released in
1982. Two songs from the album set, Today and Talk Talk, brought
them hits, the latter also giving them a breakthrough in the U.S.A.
Most of 1983 was taken up with the making of second LP, It's My
Life, and it was in this period that Mark Hollis struck up a
songwriting partnership with record producer Tim Friese-Greene.
Most of the songs on It's My Life were written by Mark and Tim and
it soon became evident that they were an exceptional songwriting
team. The LP title track became a Top Ten hit throughout Europe and
the album itself gained gold awards in France, Germany, Holland,
Switzerland and the U.K., as well as making the Top Forty in the
U.S.A.
The 1986 Talk Talk LP, The Colour Of Spring, is proving just as
successful and some of the songs from it can be heard in this
In Concert performance recorded before their home crowd at London's
Hammersmith Odeon.

11:22 interview
Amnesty International 7" picture discs: Test pressings of Amnesty
International charity picture discs. All the picture discs have
NO any interview of Talk Talk on them. They have nothing to do
with the Talk Talk except for the pictures. They come from the
UK and play interview parts from an Amnesty International press
conference. The recording is speech only, every disc plays the
same interview. Interview in which several rock/pop artists tell
why they support Amnesty International, this press conference was
probably held somewhere between 1986 and 1990, possibly on the
Human Rights Tour '86, 4 or 5 artists are featured Tracy Chapman,
Sting, Peter Gabriel & Bruce Springsteen.
Same interview appeared on both sides of the picture discs and
the reverse side often has pages of articles taken from several
newspapers, magazines and pressed inside the record (clear vinyl).
There're some one-sided pressings on which B-side is just blank
without picture and interview. A matrix number BSAPC+7-1 can be
found in the runout grooves, along with the names "Porky" and
"Orlake", same number and names as the other Amnesty 7" picture
discs.
Doubtful that these are legitimate promo or test pressing discs.
Who ever made them - he used pages from various magazines for
the pictures of the discs. There are a few more discs with
pictures of cover artwork, Talk Talk and Mark Hollis around.
There are also the same interview records with pictures by other
artists. I don't think that they were made to raise money for AI,
I believe that they were made to make a bootleger rich!
Disc #1, has a picture of band members Paul Webb and
Simon Brenner wearing a tie on A-side, early picture
from 1982 era.
Disc #2, front side has a picture of Mark Hollis with green
sunglasses with Paul Webb and Lee Harris in the back, picture
is approximately from 1984/1986.
Disc #3, front side has same picture as on font side of Disc 2,
but it was cutting differently. Mark Hollis with green sunglasses
with Paul Webb in the back, just Lee is drop behind from the photo.
Picture is approximately from 1984/1986.
Disc #4, front side has same picture as on front side of Disc #2,
but it was cutting differently again. Mark Hollis with green
sunglasses, just Paul and Lee are drop behind from the photo.
Picture is approximately from 1984/1986.
Disc #5, front side has a picture of Mark Hollis from 1985.
This was taken around the day of 'Countdown' TV show in
Holland on 21th November 1985. Lee and Paul are drop behind
from the photo.
Disc #6, front side has same artwork which is on the cover
of Spirit Of.
Disc #7, front side has same artwork which is on the cover
of Laughing Stock.
Disc #8, The cutting for the 7" PD is taken from a magazine.
There's a picture (left to right: Lee, Paul and Mark sitting
on a railing). Down and right is a text about The Colour Of
Spring album, Life's What You Make It and It's Getting Late
In The Evening. On the reverse side there's a little chair
and pants (big pants) sitting on it. It's a crazy picture!
Disc #9, front side has a picture of Mark looking very young
(before long hairs and sunglasses) sitting front of a desk
in an office with feet on the chair and a beer in left hand.
The picture is black and white and extracted, as usual, from
a magazine. "Come on Mark" title from the article. The reverse
side is completely white.
Disc #10, front side has a portrait of Mark Hollis from the era
of the '90s. The picture is black and white and extracted, as
usual, from a magazine. The reverse side is completely white.

"This track was featured as a bonus track on our first

clubs with CD's (and there are quite a few), here's a
Rhythm Stick mix that was previously only available on CD.
Jim 'Hip-Hop' Hopkins gave us his typical mix formula:
workable intro, repeat edits, break, cold end-outro, in a
word....... restructured from head to toe."

"This site will present you everything related to my work as Dee-Jay.
I will give you the possibility to download extracts from my forthcoming
album very soon... Very much interested about remixes, this page will
also be a place where you will find, between news, unreleased remixes
from some bands/artists. If you like this idea and if you are a remixer
yourself, let me know. We will work together to let know about your
talent..." (July 1999)
Attention!!!
1. All remixes are edited to make short versions not longer than 3'00.
This is to protect author rights, exclusivity of remixer's work and
fight against bootlegs.
2. All remixes are in VQF format. This new compressor works better in
term of compression (1:18) and quality than the classic mp3 format
(1:12). So files sizes are much more reduced than a conventional
mp3 file. Downloading time is by that fact shorter...

Talk Talk's It's My Life. It's the same mix as on Side A, just
only the short version. Matrix: DV 338 B
"Talk Talk's beautiful big 80's pop classic masterpiece 'It's My
Life' is sampled on this beautiful trancy sounding production,
from a hot new recording artists, who have kind of a strange name
for themselves, (and a strange title too!). This one's a real
steady & intense builder, with the gorgeous original vocal samples
from Talk Talk, which are laden throughout the mix, along with
haunting pulsating synths & melodies from 'It's My Life'. The bass
lines have a nice, lush sounding quality to them, and the drumming
programming here is really state of the art."

Dancefloor aimed house and deep house reworkings [33 1/3 rpm].
Maybe all the 3 tracks are remixed by DJ Hell.
"This is a strange one. definitely on a house tip on one side with
a soulful vocal that keeps the track moving, but the flip side,
although quite housey, has a more electro kind of feel."

Various Artists: Streets
[Nov 1977] compilation
LP: 1977 UK (Beggars Banquet; BEGA 1)
2:29 The Reaction: Talk Talk Talk Talk
The track "Talk Talk Talk Talk" the group contributed to
the "Streets" punk-rock compilation album featuring various
bands. An assortment of British indie labels on Beggars Banquet,
released in the year 1977. This song, co-written by Mark with his
older brother Ed, was none other than a prototype "Talk Talk",
albeit in a very different arrangement to the track which would
evolve into one of Talk Talk's songs.
Mentioned on front sleeve "Select Highlights From Independent
British Labels". Liner notes read (on back sleeve):
"1977 was the year that the music came out of the concert
halls and onto the streets; when independent labels sprang
out of the woodwork to feed new tastes; when rock music once
again became about energy and fun; when the majors' boardrooms
lost control. Suddenly we could do anything. BEGGARS CAN BE
CHOOSERS."

CD contains edited version of "Desire" by Talk Talk was appeared
only on US promo 12" album sampler "Spirit Of Eden" (SPRO-04172).
CD has an insert picture sleeve with unique artwork. Disc label
says "For Promotional Purpose Only. Not For Sale." Total running
time: 72:45. This long out-of-print promotional compilation CD
released in September 1988 by College Music Journal (CMJ) as part
of their on-going "Certain Damage" series. Quick overview about
the history of this rare CD compilation: Back in the late 80's,
there was no such thing as CMJ's modern "consumer" publication
called New Music Monthly (which started in 1993 and is based on
the same concept as the Certain Damage series.) There was only the
"Certain Damage" series that catered to radio and retail outlets,
not the public at large. Today, the Certain Damage series continues
(with upwards of 115+ volumes at last count), but today's Certain
Damage CDs, with their continued focus on radio/retail, largely
lack the AWESOME songs that appeared on the very early volumes
(like this one!) and the NEW MUSIC MONTHLY series. To illustrate,
check out the songs here, many of which are underground, college
radio and modern-rock classics as well as early hits from many
influential artists, like Talk Talk. This is a 18-track promo CD
of select cuts from artists "prior" to the release of their works.
Under Talk Talk liner notes says:
Alone among the now-somewhat-cliched dance-pop bands that came out
of England a few years back. Talk Talk has evolved into a mature,
sophisticated musical outfit - the only recognizable element of the
Talk Talk that was introduced to the world six years ago is Eddie
Hollis' distinctive voice. Building slowly, then quickly to raucous,
Hammond-organ-guided climaxes, "Desire" is a different kind of pop
song, one well worth investigating, a sample from their surprising,
wonderful new LP, Spirit Of Eden, which took over a year to make.
You'll be able to enjoy the whole thing real soon.

"Imagine if Moses, the prototype of the prophets, were alive today.
Surely he would be seeking out the best new sounds, the kind often
heard on Certain Damage CDs. Would he then go back to Mt. Sinai where
he received the Ten Commandments, the summary of divine law, in hopes
of receiving ten volumes of Certain Damage, the summary of divine
sounds? He'd really be going a bit too far for such discs of delight,
dontcha think? Is ten enough? Are people listening to them anyway?
We can't answer on the subject of God and his Commandments but we
can say NO and YES with respect to CMJ's Certain Damage series.
We'll be back with Volume 11 in time for our October convention."

20 seconds long (the announcer speaks for 17 seconds, and
there is a three-second pause before track 14, the 8:55 medley
called "Megamix" starts). The announcer's exact words are:
"Talk Talk's latest album, Natural History, is a retrospective
collection of the band's best-known songs over the past decade.
A fine testament to a group who have consistently refused to
compromise their music. Here's a Megamix compilation of some
favorites appearing on the album." The announcer's name is not
mentioned anywhere on the CD or in the booklet. It is definitely
a male voice.

3:22 Talk Talk
Booklet includes short liner notes, bio of Talk Talk by Andy Zax:
Talk Talk: "Formed in 1981 by singer/songwriter Mark Hollis,
Talk Talk scored in the U.K. with their debut single "Today"
before crossing the Atlantic with their eponymous follow-up in
mid-'82. Cowritten by Hollis' brother Eddie - of Eddie & The Hot
Roads fame - an insistent chorus and catchy electronic percussion
sounds drove "Talk Talk" (which, it should be pointed out, bears
no resemblance to the Music Machine's 1967 garage-punk classic of
the same name) to #75 on the U.S. chart. The band had another
brush with American pop success in 1984 with the vastly more
sophisticated "It's My Life" before their subsequent releases -
ambitious, occasionally dazzling fusions of Gil Evans and Tim
Buckley - moved them out of the pop mainstream entirely."

4:16 Why Is It So Hard? (7" version - First Born)
Talk Talk features with one of the 7" versions of song
"Why Is It So Hard?" originally written for Michael Apted's
dramatic film "First Born". This 7" version firstly appeared
on "First Born" soundtrack album later exclusively on this
compilation. Liner notes taken from the CD's booklet:
"Why Is It So Hard?" Talk Talk
One of the decade's most avant-garde and critically-acclaimed
UK exports, Talk Talk brought synthesized pop to exciting new
levels. The band was fronted by jack-of-all-trades Mark Hollis,
whose personal vision provided the foundation. As a result, the
line-up was an ever-shifting cast of characters that featured
some of the most talented musicians of the day. Talk Talk's
calling card was Hollis' nasal vocal, and the musical content
often centered on platforms of a decidedly global/environmental
scope. By the time the outfit released its last album, Laughing
Stock, Hollis' musings on life and spirituality had reached a
grand scale; his hook-laden pop structures had been replaced by
7- and 8-minute borderline-ambient works that heralded his intro-
spective maturity. Sadly, the artistic leap failed to translate
into sales. "Why Is It So Hard?", from the motion picture sound-
track of "First Born", is a lost gem from Talk Talk's heyday.
The song was cleary written in the same time frame as their
biggest hit, 1984's "It's My Life", a new wave masterpiece that
is, itself, no stranger to 80's compilations. - Kevin Flaherty
- July/August 1995

"Free with Q 170. Not to be sold separately."
This freebie CD is a great 16-track compilation that was
included with the issue 170 (November 2000) of Q Magazine.
Liner notes:
Life's hard, but don't take it personally. Essential Chill Out,
the first in Q's occasional series of thematic mood-enhancement
CDs, will transport you to a beautiful world where your mellow
will never be harshed. Here you'll find the superstars of rock in
reflective mood, the finest in soothing electronic mind music and
a dash of more traditional acoustic delight to massage your psyche.
So pour a tall drink, fill the bath with Radox and relax. Like the
crowds used to sing: you're going home in a floating ambience.

A musical project called U.N.K.L.E. initiated by Josh Davis
(DJ Shadow), Thom Yorke (Radiohead), Richard Ashcroft (The Verve).
Some other musicians are invited like Mike D (Beastie Boys), Mark
Hollis (Talk Talk) etc. There are two TT connections to the UNKLE
album. Firstly, Mark Hollis allegedly co-wrote 'Chaos' before
deciding he wasn't happy with the final mix and having his name
removed from the songwriting credits. If you listen to the track,
there is definitely some Hollis-esque piano in there. Furthermore,
"New Grass" is sampled on the Thom Yorke track, 'Rabbit In Your
Headlights'.
* Mark Hollis plays on piano.
** Uses sample of drum patterns taken from Talk Talk's "New Grass".

Mark Hollis after his solo album did some production works
together with Phill Brown, like as on the album for Anja
Garbarek (daughter of fantastic Norwegian tenor sax player
Jan Garbarek). The album features two tracks (The Gown and
The Diver) produced by Mark Hollis, recorded by Phill Brown.
Two tracks (The Gown and Big Mouth) arranged by Mark Hollis
and Anja Garbarek. Also Mark Hollis plays on piano, electric
bass and melodica in track "The Gown".
Special limited edition of the album is available in Norway only -
this edition comes in a fold-out cardboard cover rather than a
jewel case and features 2 additional tracks: a cover version of
The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band's "I Won't Hurt You"
and a Garbarek/Wilson composition "Blinking Blocks of Light".
Later it was reissued ...

It's a 2-CD set in gatefold card sleeve that has the "Silent Tongue"
album as it's first half (unreleased at the time this promo appeared)
and "45 RPM" as the second half. It was sold at The The's unique show
at David Bowie's Meltdown Festival on June 25th of 2002. No idea as
to how many copies of this exist or were sold at the show, but the
number is reportedly "low". Also no word as to whether they will
appear for sale during the fall tour that's planned for later this
year. During the same show, a special edition of The The's 'zine,
This Is The The Day, was available on every seat cushion for all to
read. Also, the "45 RPM" discs are the same as the regular ones, but
the serial number on the rim of the CD doesn't read "Disc 1" like on
the originals.

"Mysteries" CD-ROM video clip, directed by Dominic Leung
(a member of the Hammer & Tongs directing team). "Mysteries"
video features Beth and Paul walking around the countryside,
hence the nature theme's heavy presence on the album. The video
was shot beautifully with lots of zooming images and fast cuts.
Some copies of CD are promotional stickered by Anglo Plugging on
back of slimline jewel case: "And the momments that I enjoy /
a place of love and mystery / I'll be there anytime" (Mysteries)
"Portished singer Beth Gibbons & Rustin' Man, aka ex Talk Talk's
Paul Webb, see the release of 'Mysteries' through Go Beat. It is
lifted off their album 'Out Of Season' which is to follow on 28th
October. Look out for them at the Sheperd's Bush Empire on 16th
October. Released: 21st October 2002."
Anglo Plugging Tel: 020 7384 7373 | Fax: 020 7371 9490
Information: When Beth and Paul started making the album all
they had was Beth's chords and melody for "Mysteries" and Paul's
lyric to "Rustin Man". Appropriately, "Mysteries" was selected
as the album's first radio track although it was never released
as a proper single.

Out Of Season is a collaboration between Portishead's singer
Beth Gibbons and ex-Talk Talk bassist Paul Webb (alias Rustin Man).
There are guest contributions too, drawn from their immediate
band circles: Adrian Utley (guitar, and some co-producing) of
Portishead and drummer Clive Deamer and pianist John Baggott
from Portishead's live band alongside drummer and percussionist
Lee Harris and Simon Edwards from Talk Talk. The album was mixed
by Phill Brown. Much of Out Of Season was written and conceived
at their homes in the countryside in Devon and Essex with
tracklaying in London studios Westside and Konk. The album's
overriding mood is isolation both in time and place.

break from her Portished duties to team up with former Talk Talk
man Paul Webb (alias Rustin Man) to make what will surely become
one of the albums of 2002. 'Out Of Season' is a beautiful album,
in equal parts melancholic, inspiring, dark and heart rendering.
Largely acoustic and tinged with romanticism, 'Out Of Season' is
another reminder that Beth Gibbons possesses one of the greatest
and most evocative voices of our generation."

Visor is a one-time collaboration by Joerg Follert (Saucer, Motel,
Wunder), Jens Massel (Genf, Kandis, Senking) and Tom Steinle.
Visor is a tribute to Talk Talk's last album "Laughing Stock".
Each of the three members contributed two tracks, with each
contributor's cuts intersequenced with the others'. Album credits:
Jens Massel [2][6], Jorg Follert [1][4] and Tom Steinle [3][5].
Cover design: Mizue Hasuda and Joerg Follert. The music is ambient
and uses several samples from Laughing Stock.
* Track 1: "Taphead" guitar sample play repeatedly forwards & backwards
** Track 2: "After The Flood" piano loop
1st edition: 100 handmade copies as CD-R.
2nd edition: 500 copies in February 1998 (matrix: House-Audio Studios PR-140).
3rd edition: 500 copies in February 1999.
4th edition: 1000 copies in March 2001 through Digital Narcis in Japan.
Originally a limited home-burnt edition of 100 copies with handmade
covers in 8 different colors for Christmas '97, Visor was sold out
within 2 weeks and made its small rumours around the world...
These days Visor is already the classic Tom album and will be hard
to find since all 1000 copies of the 2 consecutive pressings are
sold out of our boxes. And has now been made available to public
again with the reissue through Digital Narcis (Japan), Visor was
re-released in March 2001. For the Japanese reissue the CD was
manufactured in Germany and left Germany in March.

Notes about Tomlab by Tom Steinle:
Tom Recordings came up from I don't know where and only sack &
blumm carried this labelname...by accident because the graphic
designer made a mistake that I did not notice before print...
Here is a note from an interview that explains a little bit
better: 'Tomlab' originally started out as 'Tom' in 1997 and
is basically an abbreviation of Tom Label (but also carries
the meaning of laboratory). At that time the label activity
was a very personal activity - in fact it was Joerg Follert
who convinced me using my first name for the label. With the
label slowly becoming more active I was looking for another
name because of legal issues connected to the name itself and
I was also searching for a domain name that could be easily
remembered (with Kristian I spent weeks looking for a domain
name...).
With the time there also emerged a very personal aspect since
I found myself in a position where I often was talking about
me in the 3rd person but was actually meaning the label -
I wanted to have a certain seperation between the person I am
and the label as it is. Tomlab perfectly reflects this idea in
my eyes.

A musical project called U.N.K.L.E. initiated by Josh Davis
(DJ Shadow), Thom Yorke (Radiohead), Richard Ashcroft (The Verve).
Some other musicians are invited like Mike D (Beastie Boys), Mark
Hollis (Talk Talk) etc. There are two TT connections to the UNKLE
album. Firstly, Mark Hollis allegedly co-wrote 'Chaos' before
deciding he wasn't happy with the final mix and having his name
removed from the songwriting credits. If you listen to the track,
there is definitely some Hollis-esque piano in there. Furthermore,
"New Grass" is sampled on the Thom Yorke track, 'Rabbit In Your
Headlights'.
* Mark Hollis plays on piano.
** Uses sample of drum patterns taken from Talk Talk's "New Grass".

"Talk Talk's beautiful big 80's pop classic masterpiece 'It's My
Life' is sampled on this beautiful trancy sounding production,
from a hot new recording artists, who have kind of a strange name
for themselves, (and a strange title too!). This one's a real
steady & intense builder, with the gorgeous original vocal samples
from Talk Talk, which are laden throughout the mix, along with
haunting pulsating synths & melodies from 'It's My Life'. The bass
lines have a nice, lush sounding quality to them, and the drumming

Side B has a 8:26 minutes mix of Brian Ferry's Don't Stop The Dance.
Dancefloor aimed house and deep house reworkings [33 1/3 rpm].
Maybe all the 3 tracks are remixed by DJ Hell.
"This is a strange one. definitely on a house tip on one side with
a soulful vocal that keeps the track moving, but the flip side,
although quite housey, has a more electro kind of feel."

CMJ New Music Report:
The seeming languor of the tracks found on this compilation is
belied by the drum beats that lurk in the background, propelling
the songs from being bedroom noodling into dancefloor grooving.
Songs Of The Siren is a collection of songs that sound as if
they could have been performed by the same group of musicians;
each track, although distinct, shares an aesthetic of slinky
soul backed by sparse electronic sounds. While the music is
peculiarly '90s in its creation, the overall feel could have
been conjured up at any time in the past half-century: These
songs sound as if they belong in a Jetsons scene or a lounge
lizard's cool nightclub. The vocals, all female (obviously,
since the title is lifted from The Odyssey's tale of bewitching
maidens luring men to their deaths), are of the ethereally
evocative 4AD/Cocteau Twins style, and they take these already
enchanting songs right over the top. The comeliest ones on the
disc include those by Girl Eats Boy, Tekla, Kosma and Jhelisa.

This is a compilation CD of electronic and industrial music

"It's My Life" by Battery. Review:
Various Artists
Newer Wave 2.0
(21st Circuitry Records)
Bored with the Boy? Sick of the Seagulls? Is the "Safety Dance"
bad for your health?
Then step this way, into a world where the '80s are as tortured as
tomorrow, where planet earth's an alien landscape of industrial
rhythms and shattered percussion, and "88 Lines About 44 Women" are
delivered in a monotone which chills you to the bone. Or was that
what the original did? Well, hear them from Scar Tissue, and the
Nails are off selling cars by comparison.
The second volume in an '80s revival package which let nostalgia off
the bus several blocks back, Newer Wave 2.0 rounds up some genuinely
memorable nodules of nostalgia, then helps you forget every one of
them. Tears for Fears' "Shout" (by Shunt) is reduced to sibilant
whisper; Unit: 187 create a genuinely Bowie-esque epic of alienation
from Peter Schilling's "Major Tom"; and Prince's "1999" is given a
glimpse of centuries yet to come by the atmospheres of Xorcist.
Fourteen covers, and none of them fail to ignite a new angle of some
sort. Remember, these songs were the soundtrack to these bands' teens
as well, but from Razor Skyline's recasting of "One Night in Bangkok"
as a Russian language soap, to Battery's spine-tingling revision of
Talk Talk's "It's My Life," here's one '80s party which will never go
out of date. Or at least, not until after the '90s revival.

Review by Lacqua Records:
Basque - Falling Forward CD (December 2000)
A truly luminous work, this 7 song cd will hum you into
open-hearted mystery. Moving from sonic soundscapes to
acapella simplicity, Basque seduces the listener with their
distinctive ethereal intensity. Joyful, moody, and always
entrancing, Falling Forward is a unique and essential addition
to the expanding collection of Basque's creations.
http://www.lacqua.com/
http://www.basquemusic.com/
Another great review by unknown person:
"Falling Forward" is the third recording by the New York-based
duo of Brandt (bass) and Maryasque (vocals and guitar). Between
the three elements voice, bass and guitar they sculpt a sparse
sound that relies as much on silence as it does noise. It's a
sound that mixes the ethereality of the Cocteau Twins with the
`emo-core' aesthetic championed by Low. It's a hybrid sound:
lo-fi New Age. The opening track "Somefire" sets the contemplative
mood, with a dark blue bass tone, over which a lone soprano
wordlessly soars. It's a not-quite soothing track, one that
avoids New Age schmaltz by telegraphing actual loneliness.
The title track is an autumnal pop song, complete with a catchy
(if indecipherable) chorus. Brandt augments his bass playing with
audible, rhythmic clicks, while Maryasque's guitar forms a gentle
circular pattern. It's like an Innocence Mission song stripped down
to the blueprints. "Grey and Green" evokes those colors perfectly,
with a hesitant verse cascading into rich, rewarding bridge. Notes
and space between them are given equal illumination.
Maryasque's take on `glossolalia' is unique: her words are supremely
important to her, her conversational phrasing reminiscent of
confessional singer-songwriters like Suzanne Vega and Jane Siberry,
while still retaining an unearthly edge. Call it earthy-ethereal,
the union of Liz Fraser and Phoebe Snow (on the low end notes). In
short, she achieves vocally the inchoate, open-ended quality of
Vega's and Siberry's lyrics.
Another model for this approach is the novel cover of Talk Talk's
song "Inheritance." Talk Talk's Mark Hollis singing is
impressionistic and intimate, relying more on nuance than meaning;
Basque's version of his song is an appropriate tribute. A miasma of
bass-drone rumbles, while the song is sung in minor keys. Phoebe
Snow's influence emerges with the jazz-scented song "In the hollow
of your hand." Balancing out the straightforward songs is plaintive
chant "Kamehameha" and the multi-tracked acapella "Orange Colored
Sky," which sounds like a cross between the Roches and Meredith
Monk. "Falling Forward" does not so much move *forward* as move
*further* within.

The latest release from the French micro label hinah, is limited like
its predecessors to 50 copies and is a recording made by Seattle based
duo Transmissionary Six on a local pirate radio boat "desoto" (of the
title). Transmissionary Six, which features in its line up the
"Walkabouts" drummer Terri Moller on vocals and percussion and ex WGC
member Paul Austin on guitar, released their eponymous debut album
earlier this year. Desoto features accoustic reworkings of several of
the tracks from that album, a brand new track "Purely Medicinal" and
a fabulous, stunning cover version of Talk Talk's "I Believe In You".
Reissue: It was originally released in a limited edition of just 50
copies on the French micro label, hinah, earlier this year, but with
it selling out in a matter of days Paul Austin has put together a
further edition of 100 copies to be sold exclusively through the
band's website and Pennyblackmusic.
TRANSMISSIONARY SIX "DeSOTO" (review taken from www.hinah.com)
Transmissionary Six is the project born of the meeting of Terri
Moeller, drummer from the folk veteran Walkabouts, and Paul Austin,
who lately quit Boston's Willard Grant Conspiracy. After a debut
album out recently on FILMguerrero, the band is so kind as to give
us this recording, which the fans of the Walkabouts and WGC should
love -- and so should those who adore the Red House Painters or
Mazzy Star. In a nutshell, it's stretched folk music with insistent
loops, elevated by Terri's voice in a distance.
"It was hard to make new friends while in prison, so I consider
myself damn lucky to have shared a cell with Laurent Orseau. It was
a constant source of inspiration to see Eloïse visit him day after
day as we paid our debt to society, and when he was moved to maximum
security for covering our wall with "La Mouche" murals I missed him
so. How I wept! There's no way I can repay him for all those nights
passed teaching me every word to every Lambchop song, and someday
I will be on a Lambchop game show on television and that knowledge
will win me a new toaster oven or... Do I dare dream? Perhaps some
lawn furniture. When they asked us to contribute to the hinah series
we jumped at the chance, and taped a live session aboard the DeSOTO,
48 feet of ramshackle nautical glory. Terri sang and Kevin and Paul
strummed for this intimate trio session, as only three of us could
fit in the DeSOTO's cabin area. We thank Lora for cooking a righteous
stew and making us feel at home there, and George the cat for
contributing ambient vocals (and being polite enough not to sit on
the pedal steel while Kevin was coaxing righteous spooky-ass noises
from it). Kevin not only played with us, but recorded and mixed the
set as well; without him we'd have been well and truly fucked.
Looking back on our prison stay, and now years later all the music
we share, what can we say, Laurent? From the cage to the stage!
Enjoy the music and be kind to animals except for the ones that are
assholes." - Paul Austin

the transmissionary six Go Fast For Cheap (taken from the p/s)
On a summer night in 2002, we taped a live session aboard the creaky
craft DeSOTO. 48 feet of ramshackle nautical glory. We originally
recorded the evening for our webzine friends, as they asked for
something to give away as part of their monthly series. When RTS
contacted us, it seemed pretty cool to use it again, so more folks
could hear it. Kevin remixed it to sound good on a CD. We thought
maybe we should go back and fix all the mistake, instead we decided
to just add a few new touches. In fact, I think we added even more
mistakes. Oh well. A few months after the recording sitting in the
Lucky 7 barbershop in Seattle WA, I tore an advert out of the back
of a drag racing magazine trumpetting a series of old racing films.
That very evening a friend said "the only reason people care about
your odd little band is that they know you through other bands they
care more about." When I pulled the magazine clipping from my pocket,
I first noticed the back of the page - another advert. This one was
for used drag racing engines, and titled "Go Fast For Cheap!".
Coincidence? I think not. What does any of this have to do with the
music we hope you have already started listening to? Not a hell of lot.
Terrie Moeller is singing and playing percussive things. Paul Austin
is playing the guitar and adding field recordings. kevin Suggs is
spookifying on the pedal steel, twanging the baritone guitar and
running the taper too. ben Thompson banging, shaking and brushing
various items. Amme Marie Ruljancich is adding harmony vocals and
freestyling on her violin. George the cat appears as himself.
