They are intense and energetic and at the same time completely chill. A pure example of technology inaugurating new forms of music. And I just love the look of an old tracker.

Thank you, both for the links and the spot-on description, which drew out memories of when I first heard this music when it was current. Proper futurist-nostalgia. I could not understand the blurb about Amiga mods, nor the provenance of the songs in the video, but I enjoy them and this feeling of lucking upon a scene of committed enthusiasts, and it got me to grab a couple of compilations online - which I'm listening to now.

Music by the brothers Kadane...listened to Snow by The New Year recently, and just so happened to also have the 1992-1998 compilation by Bedhead in my queue that the Numero Group put out. Y'all...this is essential listening. Over and out!

At the top of the hour the BBC World audio stream looped. So I am listening the news that I heard hours ago. Am I doing the time warp again?

Sonic Nurse, which I had somehow missed. Stones is a jam.

Palace Brothers - The "there is no one who can save you" or whatever. Great record.

Getting to listen to the whole thing today and I want to say it rips except I feel like we need a new word for that, it's maybe a little overused. But jesus, this is fucking great, and recorded at Electrical to boot.

I'm certain this is a meme by now, but I came upon this Babymetal yesterday. The song is great fun in itself, but also what a voice the lead girl has. I was shocked to hear it, used as I am to the typical thin, nasal, whiny style of so many jpop singers.

Dick Slessig Combo - Wichita Lineman.

My buddy did the art for the album. I heard the one single, need to really sit down with the album this week.
