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

Having bought a new synth at the weekend I'm getting nice and minimal with Travelogue, Movement and The Bridge

Excuse my ignorance, Garry. Is The Bridge an album title or band name?

What synth did ya buy?

Even more 'Travelogue'. On rotation in the car.

Sorry guv! Phone typing on the move and I forgot to say –

I got a Korg Monotribe – lovely piece of kit! And The Bridge is an album by Thomas Leer and Robert Rental. Originally on Industrial Records but I think Mute may have it now.

oh nice! Will have to check out 'The Bridge'. Never heard it.

Try 'Day Breaks, Night Heals' here;

over the last few weeks of reasonably mild weather which lead to an unexpected glorious springtime heatwave I'd been drawn to quieter and minimalist works such as A Winged Victory For The Sullen, and Celer's: Engaged Touches, but I thought the weathermen were really havin a laff when they predicted 'snow' this week, well its been snowing here all morning in an unabashed blizzard-stylee, so right now I'm blasting out Scritti Politti: Absolute, it seems to be doing the trick!

Two albums by Amorphous Androgynous this evening

The Peppermint Tree and the Seeds of Superconsciousness

and the quirky 'instrumental'

Tales of Ephidrina on repeat

Really does sound like Krautrock from 1972. Brilliant stuff

Today for the first time in years I've been listening to Metamatic.

Amazing how fresh cold brilliant and radical It still sounds even after all those years.

Simple Minds; Sister Feelings Call

Rummaging through some secondhand vinyl off Brick Lane last Saturday, I came across a lovely copy of Sister Feelings Call. On the back cover, somebody has written 'File under well-produced regression'
