buying one record reviewed in The Wire each month

Wire magazine #358 session on Plug DJ right now. Starting with Explosions In The Sky - Prince Avalanche OST

From #358, I'm going for the new age compilation in The Boomerang

From #358, I'm going for the new age compilation in The Boomerang

Found it on eMusic

Nice Demdike Stare interview by Joseph Stannard, but I don't know if I'll be buying any of their records; I found what I sampled 4 years ago pretty disconcerting

They are - but it's good disconcerting.

http://www.juno.co.uk/products/nrsb-11-c...499652-01/

actually there's this...

David Greenberger & Shaking Ray Levis - Tramps That Go Think In The Night (Pel Pel)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00EUC7Z8E

...which is absolutely splendid

Still reading. On the 2013 Rewind. (Not reading in any order). The Knife - Shaking The Habitual, no. 10 on their list is good stuff.

Long long interview with Jandek this month. I know literally none of his stuff. Checking it out on youtube, seems pretty cool but presumably the good stuff's also rare as hen's teeth...

[Statto]

Not got this month's issue from my mate yet.

[Statto]

and now I have two issues to go through

[Statto]

well, this is going to take some beating:

various - The Orchestra of Futurist Noise Intoners (Sub Rosa)
http://www.subrosa.net/en/catalogue/soun...oners.html

How do you do it Statto? That release is way into #360; I only just got to it the other day.

I have the whole Actress issue to read and right then the new one will be on my doorstep

[Statto]

I have the whole Actress issue to read and right then the new one will be on my doorstep

so do I

apart from the second part of the Jandek interview anyway; I read those both together

Really; do you read super fast or something?

I'm listening to this after reading my local Nightshift magazine:

[Statto]

Really; do you read super fast or something?

no, I got them a while ago – but I've only just got round to going through the reviews

[Statto]

so issue #360

Jackson C. Frank - Jackson C. Frank (Earth)
http://www.juno.co.uk/products/jackson-c...515854-01/

Bryn Harrison - Vessels (Another Timbre)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7c_3RJOqWY

Kim Myhr - All Your Limbs Singing (Sofa)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/All-your-limbs-s...B00ILWCDV8

Tatsuya Nakatani - Present Presence (Kobo)
http://www.squidco.com/miva/merchant.mvc...Code=18211

Planningtorock - All Love's Legal
http://www.juno.co.uk/products/planningt...517427-01/

various - The Orchestra of Futurist Noise Intoners (Sub Rosa)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Orchestra-Futuri...B00GOU8Y4E

I've already got the Bryn Harrison and I ordered the Sub Rosa yesterday. Guess it's between those two then.

[Statto]

as for #361, this one already looks great:

various - From Another World: A Tribute to Bob Dylan (Buda Musique)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/From-Another-Wor...B00G58EBNS

"versions" of Bob Dylan songs by traditional musicians around the world

How did you get on reading #361 Jon? I thought the Mockffice Ambience chart was pretty funny. I'm waiting for my eMusic sub to renew before I interrogate the reviews section at length.

[Statto]

still reading it — I haven't really gotten on to the reviews yet
and now there's another issue as well

so...

explain The Wire. I know its always been around. I've never read an issue, even when i was full on into magazines & stuff. they review Melt Banana, Sub Rosa stuff, & Zed Bias.. ok.

what else? does The Wire have street cred or what? heh.


just curious.

[Statto]

it's a window into anything out of the ordinary musically worldwide, mostly stuff I've never heard of

does The Wire have street cred or what?

I very much doubt that — but it does have currency in the fringe musical worlds it covers

[Statto]

falling behind with this
