NASA Voyager Recordings - Symphonies Of The Planets
And Solid Space's album Space Museum has a sci fi video game feel, imho.
Come listen to some out of this world music here: http://www.immergent.com/.
I think Spacemen 3 were best but Spirtualized were pretty decent as well.
Check out Bunnies from Massachusetts..especially future shock!
had the great man kip on ma couch about 1987. Played a one off in Dundee of all places. we sat up to the wee small hours and even tho iy was mano a mano i could'nt help but think, ' you've influenced me in so many ways and are a real star in my eyes and here we are speakin shite and drinkin coffee in a flat in Dundee!' a real humble guy. I stayed in touch with him for years, and he is indeed a great loss to music. he'll be somewhere with Lux just now, chillin' an speakin' nonsense. until the next time big guy!

Hey Dead Boy, thanks for the video - I hope the film gets made, I'd love to see it. The moment, when Nick Cave stops to speak is so sad... Reminds me of the Johnny Cash-Video of Hurt, when June stands on the stairs and just watches Johnny - so sad...

Definitely broke here. For all of the work we put into releasing things, sure it would be really cool to at least break even. And we haven't given up on that. But like some others have said, this is more of an obsession type thing. You don't really get involved in making/releasing this type of music for money. I'm not suggesting that you are or anything. I think the best we can do is try to support the small labels that we like. The other part is, you can't give up. The more good stuff you release, the more people should eventually find out about your label and buy stuff from it. Which equals you putting out more. There are some places that have made a success out of putting out niche music, look at Norton.

Joenzy thought you would say that about Bruce:He just laughed a little too early Reply by ixnayray 2 hours ago "I bet Bruce Springsteen has a better fucking record collection." Joenzy said:
HAHAHAHAHAHA!
This has been a pretty interesting read. Some good points of view... a bit of attitiude. I like it.
I've never actually listened to Little Steven's show. Not my cup of tea by the sound of it, judging by some of the names mentioned in this discussion. However, it did peak my interest...
So I went to his site and found "The 50 Coolest Songs Of The Decade", or something like that. Here's some of the artists mentioned : OASIS, PRIMAL SCREAM, AEROSMITH, STEVE EARLE, NEIL YOUNG, THE HIVES, COURTNEY LOVE, PEARL JAM, THE GO-GO's, KELLY OSBOURNE, U2 and GARBAGE.
I bet Bruce Springsteen has a better fucking record collection.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!

I think #10 is my favorite single garage comp of all-time.I'd say start with volume 10 which features Paul Bearer and the Hearsemen on the cover and then volume 1.
Thanks! LOTS of good stuff on the Sundazed website.
KRLA was the best "oldies" station in LA hands down. They played real 50s and 60s rock n roll/R&B/instros/etc. as their regular playlist. KRTH was OK, more generic (from what I remember). I hardly listened to it. Today KRTH is just laughable. It's such a pile of shit that it should not even exist anymore. Who listens to that shit? As Mike said, KROQ in the 70s and early 80s was really good. I agree with that. It WAS really good. My older brother was a mod/rude boy back in the late 70s/early 80s and he would listen to KROQ and they played lots of different stuff. Hell I even remember the "Freeze Disease" play Johnnny Chingas "Se Me Paro" for chrissakes!! KCBS (93.1FM) was an oldies station for about 1 year and they played pretty good stuff too... THE SURF (1260AM) was an oldies station that started in the early 2000s for about 2 years and THAT was an AMAZING station. They played oldies ala KRLA and didn't venture past 1966 or so. They had specialized shows on the weekends such as "Finger Poppin and Snappin" which was pure R&B and "dance" records. It was soooo great. Then one day it was gone. It's back again as RETRO, but they play more "swing" and "lounge" stuff now. However at nights and on weekends they play just 50s/60s oldies so that's a good time to tune in. Art Laboe is still on the air on 92.3 every night, but his show is so different than how it used to be. Every so often he plays a gem, but it's getting rare. Rockin Rod Strychnine said:
Well, I've been in the Seattle area for close to 25 years. Moved here in 1984 (which was a great year to do so). But every so often, I'd look at the websites of some of the stations from Los Angeles and they don't seem to different from anywhere else in the States. Yeah, KRTH (K-Earth 101) did generify. I remember when I lived there that they had a Number 1 records weekend (KRTH had the best weekends) and heard Jose Jimenez' Astronaut skit. Never heard that anywhere else.
As for Real Don Steele, I never heard of him until I heard that Don and the Goodtimes song "I'm Real". But I don't think he was on any oldies station until after I moved away.
Mike said:I forgot about KRTH, they were good too, the Real Don Steel was on there for a long time wasn't he? Or was that KRLA? But at some later point in time I think they dumbed down their playlist to just the standard generic national charting oldies. Are they still around? Even KLOS and KMET were miles above what is out there now. You had real DJ's still. Jim Ladd is still on KLOS late at night. I'll hear him once in a while at work, and he'll actually suprise me with something good once in a while in between his griping about the state of radio today.
This guy has a lot of KROQ recordings, and even some KMET stuff from the 70's and mostly 80's for download.
