![]() Today![]() Plastikman Consumed Novamute Nomu65cd In the sixties, when I first heard Bolero, I was told it wasn't allowed at the Swedish mental hospitals. I'm quite certain Plastikman would fare no better if those who decide etc... Canadian Richie Hawtin's music sounds like it's coming from the internals of some giant steam engine powering the biggest starship you could ever imagine. From time to time it's fuelled by giants throwing in digitized coal. I would really love to play this at the extreme volume Plastikman uses when mixing his work, but then my neighbours would probably kill me immediately. Or even faster. |
Yesterday![]() Television Marquee Moon Elektra/Asylum Records 960 616-2 It's the summer of 1977. My brother and me racing down from Umeå way up north to catch Television in Stockholm. We got the last two tickets and an unforgettable concert, culminating in Richard Lloyd ripping the strings from his guitar. With his bare hands... 21 years down the road, lots of that nervous energy is still very evident on Television's debut album. See No Evil must be one of the greatest openers ever! Twin guitar attack, the "other one" of course Tom Verlaine. Unfortunately, it wouldn't last. If you listen to Tom's voice you understand why. |
