开云体育…… was my favourite ever FallNet thread title. ? Thanks to KiddR for alerting me to this group. O how fantastic for a Friday afternoon, it’s made my year, I often think back to those halcyon days. ? Anybody tracked down Melliferous Mel yet? ? For the record, I’ve never been a Maths professor. Java Developer at Liverpool actually but I’ve been in Oxford since 2004. Seen the Fall here a number of times. ? Gert absolutely looked like Jeremy Beadle. To tell the difference you had to examine all his fingers. That’s the give-away. Gert never had the nerve to chop a finger off therefore his plan for world domination never succeeded. ? Unless you’ve done this one to death, I’d be interested to know who everybody’s favourite band is these days. I’m loopy about The Lovely Eggs. ? adam ? ? ? ? |

One of the things I miss about Fallnet is not being exposed to new musical recommendations on a regular basis, hence I basically listen to the same old crap as in 1997. i do quite like "Let''s Eat Grandma". Are they cool? Al

开云体育I LOVE that first Let’s Eat Grandma album but the second is rubbish. ? I saw them ages ago and accidentally met one of the girls mum and dad. I found this out after I’d called the band “the future of music” but just before we took the wrong turn and bumped into a guy injecting heroin in an alleyway! ? Nice not to have put my foot in it for once in my life. ? adam ? ? ? From: <[email protected]> on behalf of "Alastair Reynolds via groups.io" <alreynolds2004@...> ?

Ooh, I really liked their album last year (I think it was).

I'm very definitely not cool. I told Mrs B about the joyful Fallnet resurrection news and her response was very much along the lines of "That's nice, dear". Should I have her killed? Toby On 6 Nov 2020, at 17:00, Alastair Reynolds via groups.io <alreynolds2004@...> wrote: |

Just strap here to a chair and play 10 hours of Afro-Ibis Man. That'll do the trick.

Partial to the Beast of Bodmin Moor thread myself. Sorry about the mixup up; there was probably another maths professor on Fallnet on those days. But I know I got the cheese buntie part correct.
This is all very strange as I did once lose a finger on my left hand in a motorcycle accident but it was re-attached and almost works well. This is hitting a little to close to home. I don't think a passing resemblance to Jeremy Beadle is the sort of thing one puts on one's life's resume.
I remember meeting Stefan Cooke at one of the Brownie's/Coney Island High gigs in '98. Anyone recall David Bivins?
ObFallCon: played Code:Selfish on the last weekend.

That was a great few days for me in NYC '98, meeting Fallnetters before the first Coney Island High gig. First night's gig itself was subpar, but the next night was very good. Biv was with us but I've lost track of him, and also of Peter Messian (sp?). I'm still in touch with Michael Pinto, Tony Arena (anonyrena), Hilda, David Plunkett, Eliot Van Buskirk, Mark Desrosiers, Jonathan Kandell, and a few others, though. Sent a message to Chris Kovin via Instagram but didn't get a response. As someone mentioned, Brent Colyer's no longer with us :( .? Great to see you back on Fallnet OBG! Not sure where people got the idea that Fallnet died, it just slowed down to a crawl for a few years. Stefan On Fri, Nov 6, 2020 at 12:16 PM olderbrothergert <harrygrimes@...> wrote:

开云体育In the?the space for Favorite?Band, a wrote “The Fall” in permanent ink, so it’ll always be them, but all I actually listen to anymore is ghetto funk and?booty bass, and I suppose what the music mags used to call “angular” scratchy guitars.? So, I guess bands I like now it’s?stuff like: Shopping Dry Cleaning I Like Trains Fontaines DC Music,?man, it’s great.

Adam:
PADDY STEER - one-man-band sorta thing, bleeps and bloops over live drum kit;
old hippy in elaborate home-made masks,
from Manchester I think, looks to be good live SNAPPED ANKLES - also bleepy bloopy but motorik, obvious influences but good (a bit like BEAK maybe but younger, less gloomy, more pep) Speaking of obvious influences, this sounds strangely familiar...? Pete |
I've been listening to Talk Talk's Laughing Stock a lot to calm my nerves (nerves calmed by recent events as of a few hours ago), but here's stuff that's a bit newer: Sote (Iranian warped noise/traditional/electronic) Jefre Cantu-Ledesma Bartok (not recent obviously but I've taken up piano, so I have a new interest in this) Brittany Howard Manni Dee (hardcore techno) Solange Nightwave (techno) Not surprisingly and perhaps sadly, I listen to mostly the "old" stuff that I first fell in love with in the 80s: Cabaret Voltaire, New Order pre-1986, Einsturzende Neubauten (still great), The Fall, Coil. One band I used to be obsessed with, though, that I really don't listen to at all is The Wedding Present. Don't know why, but I guess I grew out of the lovesickness?

My teacher started me on Mikrokosmos first day!?We did selections from book 1 and now we're on book 2. I'm currently working on No. 61, Pentatonic Melody. It's an amazing and satisfying way to learn piano for sure. I listen to them on Spotify, but mostly I work on them on the piano. On Sat, Nov 7, 2020 at 7:35 PM John Lorio <otherjohn@...> wrote:
