Metamatic Forums Socialising The Green Room What Music Are You Listening To ?

Peter Gabriel... tracks from various albums including Us, Up, Birdy and Peter Gabriel 3/Melt

Also playing peter gabriel on my mp3. Biko, steam, and games without frontiers.

Biko was the first track my iPod selected for me this morning.

I finally got round to updating my Gabriel website recently, including a few photos that Rob kindly provided me with.

Of course, typically since doing that update, sone exciting news has emerged regarding Gabriel's next album, so I'll have to do yet another update... it only took me 10 months to get round to doing this one!!!

Hi Alex,

Is that the article that was in the Sunday Times yesterday or do you have other news?

Brian

No, it is the news about the new Merlin group from the Sunday Times. I'm starting to wonder if there will be a new digital Gabriel album with us sooner than I imagined.

But that's probably wishful thinking!

...anyway I'm back on Bowie today!

Last night it was Blood by This Mortal Coil, on the way to work this morning it was Up by Peter Gabriel (thanks for the recommendation E.G.) and now it's Polar Sequences by Higher Intelligence Agency / Biosphere...

I got the new Nine Horses* mini-album last night. Entitled 'Money For All' - it's a few new tracks and some re-mixed ones from the album 'Snow Borne Sorrow'

Don't know how I feel about it just yet...'inconsequential' on first impressions. The new songs aren't striking and the re-mixes neither better or mar the originals.

I wonder if John's ever thought of releasing a re-mix album?

*Nine Horses are; David Sylvian, Steve Jansen and Burnt Friedman

Yup, John's spoken many times about getting a number of people in to remix Metamatic - however, this particular project seems to have taken a bit of a back-seat recently as John's been tied up with a number of collaborative projects...

Rob

It was my pleasure Rob...



Today it's 'Wild' by Erasure, specifically 'Piano Song'.

Would be interesting to hear anyhow. I wonder if Louis and John would re-mix the tracks themselves or get like-minded artists to do some...I'll stop now as I'm drooling.

Rob - I will get the hang of the 'quote' function soon, honest!
