Hey SonicFox,
Have you heard the new Porcupine Tree cd "Nil Recurring"? The music is left over from the Fear of a Blank Planet sessions. Definitely worth picking up. It's available on amazon as well as snapper music.
Cheers,
Shaun

They definitely could make a great Bond song! Have you heard "Sartorious" and "Little Death"? They are unreleased live tracks only, and both were performed on the "Wonderful Electric" DVD. They are *totally* Bond sounding. If you don't have these tracks, let me know. These are a "must" in your collection!

One has to be careful when buying Goldfrapp cds because they don't stick to a formula, that's for sure. I was in shock when I bought "Black Cherry" after listening to "Felt Mountain" fo so long. Now, going from "Supernature" to "Seventh Tree" is another surprise! \:o


I've just ordered the "wonderful electric" dvd. to think i didn't have a Goldfrapp concert DVD considering some of the other less than stellar dvd's I've bought. Travesty! i do like that goldfrapp does change their sound. One of the main reasons i'm such a huge fan of Radiohead, not always same ole thing.

Thanks for the heads up on the new Porcupine Tree cd, Shaun. I didn't know about it! "Fear of a Blank Planet" is a great cd although it took me awhile to get into. I suppose the songs aren't as catchy the first time through.

For those of you wondering, here are the songs by Goldfrapp which sound very Bond-ish. I found some performances on YouTube.
"Sartorious"
"Litte Death" from the Wonderful Electric DVD
It is so cool here how Alison's voice is used as an instrument!

I've heard it. To me it really did nothing to improve on the original. One of my favorite jazz albums.

I recently saw P. Tree live. Amazing show. Right now a version of Tomita's Snowflakes are Dancing upmixed to DTS. Ah! Reverie, Claire De lune, beautiful stuff.

At the moment, listening to the Eagles Hell freezes over. Really bummed to hear about Jeff Healy. One of my favorites. Will definitely be listening to his CD tomorrow and watching Roadhouse.

Sirquack, when you get all those subs going you are going to have to get someone to adjust the foundation of you house. Took a peek at your website, very nice. Hope you are not getting the freezing rain we are supposed to get tonight in Wisconsin. Enjoy those subs. Can't wait to get one myself.
