Subject: (exotica) this is how i feel about jazz

hi all,

   no, i'm not trying to start that old jazz debate. i just picked up this
disc today called "this is how i feel about jazz" by iwamura manabu. this
came out on the readymade records label out of japan sometime within the
last year. this is the label run by p5's konishi.  i really wanted to pick
this disc up since hearing his(manabu)  remix on the punch the monkey 3
remixes and covers.(speaking of good anime soundtracks the lupin the 3rd
one's should be good judging by how great the remix  discs have been).
apparently iwamura manabu is a japanese living in italy. and maki and
konishi found(discovered?) out about him while they were in italy last year.
and hence  konishi released this on his label. it seems to fall somewhere
between  crime  jazz and sacrebleu by dimitri from paris. i think they
sample from some of the same sources. i think it may be the best non p5
related release to come out on readymade in quite some time. on first listen
i am liking it alot more than comoestas or mansfield.

                             william in taipei.

ps. as a follow up to my post about in the mood for love, i picked up the
regular cd ost. and the packaging is pretty nice with  nice post cards from
the film. the liner notes are the same except they do not include english
translations of the dialogue samples like the deluxe version of this release
did.

Subject: (exotica) review: The Transistors "Mission on Venus" maxi

    I usually don't review maxi's, but since this is currently
the only "record" by The Transistors available. their recent
"Swinging Italy" CD on Sparkling Planet (reviewed in "Cool And
Strange Music Magazine" issue 15) appears to be deleted already!
Anyway, we all know and love the Italian label Right Tempo, for
re-releasing tons of obscure Italian lounge and soundtrack music,
either on their wonderful "Easy tempo" compilation series, or as full
soundtrack re-issues that always come with unreleased bonus tracks
and packed in some of the most beautiful record cover designs I've
seen in several years. Right Tempo also has this "Temposphere"
division devoted to new recordings, by artists of today, like The
Transistors, who make some groovy CYBERSPACE AGE POP, a bit like
Tipsy (especially on track A2), the main difference being that The
Transistors seem to use far less samples. This maxi contains just 3
instrumental tracks: "Mission On Venus" kicks of as an energetic
"running spy" theme, driven by Hammond and vibes, with some nice 'n'
cool scatting by Miss Ari. The second piece, "Cocktail di Neve in
Oro" is again very spy-like, though the rhythm is slower, and
Kettledrums give it an extra exotic and slightly subdued nervous
touch; our imaginary spy sounds like he wants to relax, and have this
refreshing cocktail with that sexy blonde, but fears the drink might
explode in his face any second. Turn over the record, for a Gak Sato
remix that gives "Mission On Venus" even more drive and jazzy action,
by adding several samples -- the only one I recognised was a fragment
from the The Markko Polo Adventurers' "Orienta" LP. Let's hope we
won't have to wait too long for a full album follow-up!


TRACKS:

A1. Mission On Venus (4:45)
A2. Cocktail di Neve in Oro (5:21)
B1. Mission On Venus (Gak Sato custom mix, 5:32)


DETAILS:

artist: The Transistors
title:  "Mission on Venus"

Subject: (exotica) New Releases (Morricone, Les Maledictus Sound, Pizzicato 5)

A few new releases in at Forced Exposure:
http://www.forcedexposure.com.

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

DAGORED (ITALY):

MORRICONE, ENNIO: Slalom O.S.T. CD (RED 118 CD). "The complete
soundtrack recording (first time ever as a singular release) for this
1965 cult Italian spy movie starring Vittorio Gassman. Super suave
film score with the classic main title surf-spy-ski theme song plus
Arabian parlor music/hippy bongo suspense/orchestral moods/cocktail
blues/roller rink electric guitar/odd vocal chorus film melodics and
more..."  $15.00

MORRICONE, ENNIO: Slalom O.S.T. LP (RED 118 LP). "180 gram
HQ vinyl. Gatefold sleeve."  $15.00

MORRICONE, ENNIO: Gli Occhi Freddi Della Paura CD (RED 119 CD).
"This, the only credited soundtrack appearance of Gruppo di
Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza, makes you wish Morricone had
used his free improv unit for that purpose more often. Gli Occhi Fredda
Della Paura, or Cold Eyes of Fear, is an Italian slasher (giallo)
from 1971. The score has Il Gruppo augmented by a rhythm section
and a fuzz-wah guitarist (most likely Alessandro Alessandroni). The
results sound like a creepy take on 70s Miles Davis, with driving
jazz beats and psychedelic guitar jabs filtering in and out of the
suspenseful textural mayhem provided by Il Gruppo: ashtrays in
pianos, bowed cymbals, scraping metal, jittery horns, string drones,
etc. Besides an odd one in the Morricone canon, Gli Occhi is also an
unusual endeavor for Il Gruppo. The ensemble set out to avoid all
musical conventions: '...no sounds bound to the tonal system, no
rhythmic periodicity, no motives, and no repetition allowed...,' yet
here they break Franco Evangelisti's rules and find themselves locked
in some serious grooves. This Dagored issue is the definitive version
with great sound and seven previously unreleased ques on both vinyl
and CD. I don't blame anyone for being on the fence or only
occasionally dipping their toes in the world of Morricone, that world
is a confounding and oft disappointing one -- the man scored nearly
400 films and finding the nuggets is tough. However, this is the one
that all you adventurous/out-music gluttons needs to be able pull off
the shelve when the avant-garde police knock on your door. Yep, this
is THE ONE." -- Frank van den Elzen.  $15.00

MORRICONE, ENNIO: Gli Occhi Freddi Della Paura LP (RED 119 LP).
"180 gram HQ vinyl.  Gatefold sleeve."  $15.00

LES MALEDICTUS SOUND: Les Maledictus Sound LP (RED 120 LP).
"Originally released in 1968, this is one of the most bizarre records
ever released and one of the most sought after titles on the
collectors╣ market. The Maledictus Sound are to instrumental rock
what Frankenstein was to science... a laboratory monster... a strange
creature assembled from a mish-mash of diverse musical sounds...
psychedelic pop, romantic ballads, musical tongue-in-cheek, drugged
out chipmunks, near-delirium sound effects, horror movie screamadelia
and a mega-twisted O60s vibe... eclectic, epileptic... for Jello
Biafra this is 'some of the most screaming exotica-psych I╣ve ever
heard in my life.'  Original artwork. Contains a free poster. 180
gram HQ vinyl, gatefold sleeve."  $15.00

_____________________________________________
MATADOR:

PIZZICATO FIVE: The Fifth Release From Matador CD (OLE 415 CD).
"Pizzicato Five's brand new album, released earlier in 2000 in Japan
under the title Pizzicato Five, is now available worldwide with a new
title, a new cover, and 3 additional exclusive tracks. Showcasing
producer and impresario Yasuharu Konishi's wide-ranging musical,
artistic and theatrical talents, The Fifth Release From Matador is a
paean to the pop styles and sounds of 1960s and 1970s Italy. From the
Italian modernist furniture, design and clothing depicted in the
lavish booklet and the press photos taken on location in Rome, to the
juddering go-go beats and smooth soundtrack backdrops in the music,
the album pays tribute to the best-dressed culture of the past four
decades."  $14.00

PIZZICATO FIVE: The Fifth Release From Matador 2LP (OLE 415 LP).  $18.00

Subject: (exotica) "Cross and the Switchblade" OST

I hate to use the list as a request forum, but I figure once in a while will
not earn my damnation. My computer gave me a bit of flack last night and I
ended up missing an eBay bid on "The Cross and the Switchblade" OST by ONE
second! It went for only 11 dollars. I'm sure others out there have had
similar experiences. It ain't the end of the world but it is an annnoyance.

If anyone has a copy of this and would be willing to burn the standout
tracks, or even just tape-record them, I'd gladly do the same in return with
something from my own collection. I've got lots of OSTs.

just thought I'd ask

There's a (car?) commercial on TV now that uses a revved-up version of

it was just crafted for the commercial?

DJ Q-Bert also uses it on "Demolition Pumpkin Squeeze Musik" -- I believe he
uses "Apache," Bob James' "Take Me To The Mardi Gras" and Rush's "Tom
Sawyer" all on one track...

To me, it sounds like the version off of the "Kinky Beats" compilation, by
Michael Viner's Incredible Bongo Band, or whatever they're called.

Incredible Bongo Band's Apache has got to be one of the most overly used
breakbeats of all time. In fact, I'd put it number 4!

1. The Winstons - Amen Brother (every second rave track in the UK used this
one)
2. Lyn Collins - Think (hip hop, drum n bass staple)
3. Bobby Byrd - Aaggghh! Why can't I ever remember what anything is called!
'I'm coming I'm coming' B-side of the Urban 12" I know you got soul
4. Incredible Bongo Band - Apache

Subject: (exotica) liner notes, a real mouthful

It doesn't matter what record this is from.
Maybe it would even "interfere" with your appreciation of it.
It's so sui generis, I just have to share it:

"An album creatively centred around rhythm.  An album that comes as close
to complete creative artistry as musical perfection ever gets.
Not go-go rhythm, nor rhythm & blues rhythm, not ballad or rock rhythm..
nor any particular label of rhythm at all.  No pigeon holes. No one bag.
Simply the integrity of rhythm.  Merely a remarkably well conceived concept
in thoughtful sound which utilizes the superb music of several styles and
origins in order to create an elegantly current and unpretentious music
rooted in the complex tapestry of when, where and how a note should be
sounded".

Good group of bongo scores but the most interesting one, imho, is the
Boogie Woogie record.  Normally I don't like the boogie or the woogie but
there's something about the heavy downbeat on this record... It almost
makes me want to boogie.

You can have too many bongo records but not too many of the right ones.

Explains a bit more, without the stylish mystification of their own website.

It's called "Hot Pants (I'm Coming Coming, I'm Coming)" It was actually a
Brownstone Records 7" 45 from 1971 recorded on the heels of "I Know You Got
Soul". The Brits discovered it in the late 8T's and released a 12" of it.
They also isolated the drum breaks from the song as one of the selections
which I thought was a good way to go...JB

Hello Exotica er...people...

Man, I never have been satisfied with any of the names for this odd little
community!

I've been lurking like a villain for the past few months, but I hope you all
can forgive me my prodigal status and help me out with something.

LuxuriaMusic plans to mark the occasion of the 20th anniversary of John
Lennon's death by broadcasting 24 hours (or as close to it as we can manage)
of Beatles covers.

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.We've got a couple of hundred
tracks so far, but God knows what kind of blind spots we might have, so
don't be shy about sending what may seem to be obvious suggestions.

This actually kind of dovetails with the recent discussion about Rat
Pack-era performers "co-opting" "hip" song selections.

You can email me offlist at: [e-mail]

Thanks!

A quick question - is Les Baxter's 1960 TV special available on video. I
have the two Dionysus CD's and watched the short clip at www.lesbaxter.com
and would love to see the entire special. Is anyone (perhaps Dionysus)
working to release this? Also, will there be any more Les Baxter 2-fer CD's
released by Collectables?

Hello all

I'm hoping someone on the list can help me out. I'm desperately seeking a
copy of the track "George Liberace Cha Cha" (not the "George Liberace

the tape of it that I had, and the person that made the tape has lost the

contact me off list. I'll be happy to make remuneration in any form. And
yes, I'm on a deadline....

Oh yes, there must be zillions of these promotional record or "product
music" releases. I have a modest collection of mostly Dutch and German
records of this type. There is also a CD called 'Product music', which
collects some nice examples from American records.

Never find a copy of that in Europe on vinyl.

I'm not that good at identifying Lennon tracks as opposed to that other
guy.  If you can think of any tunes that you DON'T have covered, I might be
able to make a suggestion or two.  Carmen McRae I think, on Verve, did a
great Beatles cover with sitar.  The tune with the lyric "It is beginning".
 Can't remember the name of it.  If you're not familiar with it or if it's
not a McCartney tune, I'll dig it up for you.

Do they have any other albums available?
