Okay, I know I often mention the weather in this thread, but it’s been such a beautiful day outside earlier...and Mirrorball, which I’ve not listened to for a few weeks, but every time I return to it, much as I love his work with Louis, I become more convinced that for me at least its growing to be Johns best project since his solo career, or maybe I’m just a sucker for lush romanticism.
Yeah I get Musically Seaonal Affected Disorder too! It's why I can only listen to
The Garden in Spring/Summer and
The Golden Section in Summer/Autumn!
Re -
Mirrorball - I think along with
Tiny Colour Movies and
The Quiet Man its clear the 'electro' phase of his music is almost over*
Today I'm sliding down the vague conversation of
Ultravox!,
Ha!-Ha!-Ha! and
Systems of Romance*mind you, I'm saying that and
Flightpath Tegel came out of nowhere and we've still to hear his stuff with Paul Daley yet and Daley's half responsible for the brutalist electro structures of
Leftism and
Rhythm & Stealth not someone you'd call a music wallflower...best not to write off the electro phase just yet - there still blood in those Metal Beats.
