Autechre’s remix of Tortoise’s “Adverse Camber” is cool
Just caught Autechre’s remix “Adverse Camber” on the 24 July 2005 Brainwashed podcast (yeah, I’m a lot of behind) and it’s really cool. This is based on Tortoise’s song “Ten-Day Interval” from their album TNT. It’s long and atmospheric, but rhythmically really interesting and not dull or repetitious. It would be interesting to hear the original. I like the funky little noises at the end; they sound vaguely like processed recordings of something like a pencil bouncing on piano strings.
And, no, I’m not talking like a pirate today like I should (too much like work, and I’ve got enough of that lying around), but PeeZed is, and WeatherGirl just about laughed herself silly late last night reading the pirate version of Dawkins’ recent brief explanation of evolution.
Some root themselves into th’ soil and tilt green solar panels toward th’ sun, ye scurvey dog!
Indeed!

OK, I can’t quite bring myself to make a whole new post about it, but Rank Sinatra’s cover of “Take On Me” from the 7 Aug 05 Brainwashed podcast was darn near the silliest thing I’d heard in a long time. Totally dippy synth melodies with this crazed serial killer growly vocal. Had to listen to it twice, and there may be a third time in the offing.
Crazy in all the right ways :-).
