I may start looking in to The Cure. I heard a song on the radio a while back that I liked. I don't know too much about their music. I've always liked this song. If you notice, I'm a sucker for groovy bass lines. The CureLovesong:www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4SZhumbv0s |

I noticed one universal element your choices, keyboards. As you know, I love keyboard/digital accents to music as well.
Science Faction live. Cool!
What was the name of the club in Kingston?
Dali's Car is unique.
I dig that Numan track. It has an intense ambience to it.
Pink Floyd is always a safe bet.
If it weren't for music I'd be insane. More so than I already am.

We have been listening to The Cure since around 1980. The New Wave stuff was really a pop version of early 70s space rock and late 60s psychedelia. The first Cure songs we heard was "It's Not You". The club was Airstudio in Kingston. Mostly Jazz, Blues, and folk are played there, but we actually had people dancing. I will post a version of a song called "Waizrds of Mass Deception", from that night on Youtube. It has samples of Bush, Cheney, Powell, Rove, Amy Goodman, etc all synchronized sayings "Weapons of Mass Destruction", to a Wizard Of Oz type beat. I think you will get a kick out of it. Here's AirStudio air-studio-gallery.fineartamerica.com/Dali's Car is made from former members of Bauhaus and Bill Nelson. If you get a chance, pick that one up. It is VERY mind bending. Gary Numan is one of the most talented and under-rated musicians ever. Pink Floyd.....Theta and I are getting together next week with a fellow who I played Pink Floyd, Beatles, Gentle Giant, King Crimson, original and copy music from 1972 to 1974. Have not seen him in nearly 35 years. We played a dead on version of "Echoes". From 1971 to 1974 there was perhaps 5 bands in the entire New York area playing what was called either "Jazz/Classical Rock", "Space Rock", or "Electronic Rock". Nobody else was using synthesizers, and the guitar players had tons of effects and echoes. We played this music because we loved it, but also we knew the audience was psychedelic and not drunk. |
