No....Shambler has no interesting celebrity tales.
Someone once said you DJ'ed, and DJ's tend to meet everybody that rolls through town. The first track from distran's 2008 solo album is now available for listening and download from his myspace page.
http://www.myspace.com/distransitive The track, 'Cristo Zatten Gaylord', from the upcoming "of webs and friends" album, is a frivolous, wry and sometimes deeply disturbing piece...much like the person who inspired it. Enjoy! Other tracks being worked on at the moment include "Smabintor 08" and "Joy; Luck; Sympatico". Keep your ears open... http://parampararecords.com/?parampara=release&id=PRPRCD001

RSS subscription recommended. ;) Been rating this recently. Currently listening to The Destroyer's album on Epileptik, well banging.
Also been linking Manu Le Malin's sophisticated Biomechanik Vol 3 on Uncivilised World, and some of Hardoholic's Global Disorder on BEAST Records. And have ordered the Nordcore GMBH mix CD from Epileptik (have always rated Lord Nord's excellent productions), Biomechanik Vol 2 (to complete the collection), and the ultraclassic Technohead 3 compilation on React (just class stuff). Life is best lived at 220 bpm... Not sure if you people know Ugress and Shadow Of The Beat, two projects by Gisle Martens Meyer from Bergen (Norway). He's been producing and releasing music on the internet for years, and it's quite brilliant in my opinion. It ranges from very cinematic, soundtrack-like tracks to excellent dance tunes with great vocals, all very atmospheric.
Anyway, you can listen to his latest albums for free on last.fm: http://www.lastfm.com/music/Ugress/Unicorn And here's the latest Shadow Of The Beat album: http://www.lastfm.com/music/Shadow+of+the+Beat/The+Shadow+Vault+-+Entities+2000-2007 Hope some of you enjoy his stuff. Big fan of electro-industrial, Dark-elektro and Death-Robot music personally. Fave bands are Allied vision and Front Line Assembly.
I should commend here the soundtrack to "Ravenous," by Michael Nyman and Damon Albarn. It is unconventional, odd, and extraordinarily effective in capturing a simultaneously sinister and absurd/amusing mood. This movie is a cult classic (I've seen it far too many times) but it would be nothing without this music (which I often listen to by itself).
That song that plays at the end, when they're lieing in the bear-trap, bleeding to death sends shivers up my spine!
Anyone got a link? I didnt know who it was by though. I've seen it advertised as a CD on the net... still listening but so far this has the ambling pointlessness of a zip of unfinished
I had pretty high hopes this was going to be four more Quake Soundtracks of Awesome. :( There are a few nice tracks, but mostly lots of boring stuff unfortunatly. I was hoping for another "Still", but this definetely isn't it.
...you cant even sit in a bar, smoke, have a drink in a dark corner and look cool anymore.

two punks and a roland, no pretentious rock-star bullshit, sorry. when you put everything through a million filters there's no information left, it all just sounds the same. It's extremely dull. You have quantization and you have sine waves and that's it.
It usually also doesn't have much inspiration - other music tells of human relations and feelings, nature or history and all kinds of expressions. That isn't as itself necessarily bad, but it sometimes turns out that way. You need some input to produce some output. Otherwise it's just recycling. The rhythms in dance music are usually idiotic. And other music of that sort like breakbeat does have changing rhythms but usually doesn't have any melody sot it sucks because of that. Chip tunes on the other hand don't try to be "atmospheric" by ramping the same buzz sound slightly louder for a minute, but concentrate on the compositions, and they often rock. If you just don't listen to that stuff too much. Spd's scifi movie music demonstrates the fact very well, it's completely horrible and unatmospheric. Feels like some kids just played with a cheap effects toy. You get humm and buzz and cling, volume ramps and a dulling filter and that's it. Sorry, tired.
