I can't stop playing Gas lately, both the first and the latest on Mille Plateux. My question here for all you spotter types and musicologists ( Lance ) is: anything else by Gas other than the EMIT stuff? perhaps under other names? 12" only stuff? Rarities? What am I missing? With the recent mention on Stock Hausen and Walkman, I throw in another recommendation for Dummy Run: Ice Cream Headache, the "drum and bass" alter ego of SH+W. Takes a dump from a mile high on most "drill and bass", uses conventional and unconventional breaks and, can you handle it (?), has a sense of humor! Where is the *unabridged and up to date* Muslimgauze discography? I now have 20-30 releases and am quite interested in checking out the other 700 or so. Lock Grooves: I have some Red Planet 12"s ( Detroit techno ) that go from start to finish and then play back, an infinite record. I think I also have some other techno stuff along those lines. Also, did'nt at least one of those "Environments" records from the 70's play in the same manner? I used to have a Psychic TV 7" that played in the parallel groove manner: drop the needle and get Genesis P Orridge, drop the needle and get Jim Jones, Charles Manson or William Burroughs. I don't think I ever heard the whole thing as every needle drop was a new track, at least for the 5 minute duration. I also remember a Jamaican reggae 12" that was so cheap and thin that when you play it, you heard *the music from the other side* coming through!!!!!! Hard to believe, yeah.... Hey vinyl heads....Jim and I have another auction coming up. details next week.
