Subject: (exotica) [obit] Walter O. Stanton (2nd try)

Walter O. Stanton, the inventor of an easily replaceable phonograph
stylus that was crucial to creating a consumer market for audio
equipment, died on Monday, April 16, 2001, in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla.
He was 86. In the late 1940's Mr. Stanton's slide-in stylus made it
possible for users to replace a needle assembly when it wore out,
instead of having to send it back to the factory. Audiophiles snapped
them up for home use, and the invention became one of the basics in
phonograph cartridge design. But Mr. Stanton was as much a salesman as
he was an engineer. In 1950, he bought Pickering & Company, the audio
component manufacturer that first sold his patented stylus. A decade
later he founded another company, Stanton Magnetics, which was one of
the first American companies to make and sell magnetic cartridges that
improved sound quality and allowed for a less-expensive product in the
1970's. Both companies had operations in Plainview, N.Y., and West Palm
Beach, Fla. Rather than selling the phonograph as one big console, Mr.
Stanton was one of the first to separate the electronics, the turntable
and the cartridges and sell them separately to consumers. To do that
effectively, he prodded the major manufacturers to arrive at standards
for the mounting systems for cartridges and the type of recording on
vinyl records. He served as president of the Audio Engineering Society
and was inducted into the Audio Hall of Fame, family members said. In
his effort to broaden the market for audio components, Mr. Stanton
helped found the Institute of High Fidelity, whose annual trade shows in
Manhattan attracted crowds of gadget lovers. In 1967, complaining that
too many homeowners still thought of audio equipment as "assorted pieces
of gear lying about connected by all kinds of wires," he set up five
rooms at the New York National Design Center to illustrate how music
could be integrated into home d=E9cor. Mr. Stanton was born in Canton,
Ohio, and graduated from Wayne State University's School of Electrical
Engineering in 1939. While there, he set up one of the first student
radio stations in the country. During World War II, Mr. Stanton was
involved in the design and creation of mechanisms for aerospace
applications. Mr. Stanton was known for holding outings on his boat near
his longtime home in Laurel Hollow, N.Y., and playing jokes on
employees. He ran both of his companies until retiring in 1998, having
forged new business in the compact disc era by selling headphones and
speakers and having fostered the resurgence of the disc jockey market
for his cartridges.

Damn! Does that mean I should give up on my pathetic 45,333 bps (at best)

Subject: (exotica) Big Eyed people on London Records

Anyone ever run into one of those big eyed people album covers on London
(or Richmond) records?  Edmundo Ros, Stanley Black, Mantovani and maybe
others had their album art done by someone called demilis or demilio.  They
were quite colorful and every person depicted had disproportionately big
eyes.  I have several of these now and wish to learn more about the artist
and just how many and which covers the artist did.

London LL 1094  Mantovani      Waltz Time
London LL 1100  Stanley Black  Carnival in the Sun
London LL 1093  Edmundo Ros    Latin Melodies
London LL 1117  Edmundo Ros    Ros Album of Sambas
Richmond B 20021 Edmundo Ros   Calypso Mania (probably from LL 1091)
Richmond B 20032 Edmundo Ros   Samba! (all cuts & art repeated from LL 1117)

A friend's boyfriend made the find of the month for me.  He always checks =

these but it's cool he even bothered) and a "surprise LP" of Martin =

year noted afterwards.  Pretty cool.

I also found a copy of More Peter Gunn in great shape the following day.

Subject: (exotica) So who does this sound like?

A friend in an ad agency has posed this question to me regarding a client
looking for some music to possibly use in a TV spot they're producing.

His description of what he wants:
"sort of acid-loungeish, like a Portishead-type sound with more of a 50s
feel. Unusual, tinny, ambient, a little cynical with a slightly deranged
twist. The music will be chosen for its weirdness and its suitability to play
backwards and forwards throughout the spot with little discernable
difference."

So any ideas? Personally, I think the "Portishead" reference runs counter to
"50s," but that's just me.

Thanks!

That reminds me of the need to now publicly thank Tiki Bob, my pal from here
and from the Kahiki Klosing, who was kind enough to snag me a copy of "Quiet
Village" autographed by Mr. Denny when Bob visited him in '99. Thanks Tiki
Bob. It serves as a guardian for my Tiki salvaged from the Aku Aku,
originally from the Boston Polynesian Village circa 1948. JB/thumpin' the

I would suggest Seksu Roba's "Cha Cha On The Moon"...I think it fits the bill

Yes, it looks like de milio, and LL 1091 has the art.  I've always liked the
art on this one myself.  But the LL 1091 is entitled just "Calypsos," unless
you go by the spine, which says "Ros Album of Calypsos."  And, of course, a
whole album of Edmundo singing.  Until I saw this title on your list,
however, I wasn't sure you were talking about art.  I imagined photographs
of big-eyed people trapped in giant number 4's.

Luxuria is fantastic... Another thing about it is it's so *convenient* You
can have it on all the time.  Like any radio station. Unlike real audio
files you don't have to go back and figure out where your left off.

And the Chat room! Damm I'm going to miss it and all the wonderful people
I've associated with there. We have our own mailing list now at:
http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/luxuriamusic so we can keep in touch.

Were going to have a lot of people going thru Luxuria withdrawal next week
Anybody got a nice list of audio sites on the net?  Maybe organized by
days.. Mondays..Tuesdays... a list of audio on demand...so we can all jump
around?  Darrell's program and Mr. Odis are the obvious archived ones. The
Linkquarium  got lots of things mentioned but not by day. .Any decent 365
sites?

I have heard a lot of great music. Good Luck Mill, Chuck and Eric on setting
up Lux 2. And everyone! Jump on the bandwagon when it does.

<<Any decent 365 sites?>>

Well, I guess this is as good a time as any to let my fellow listees that
I've been running "broadcasts" on Live365 for a good six months now.  My
idea was to combine the music with a website that would allow the listener
to view covers and other information, reviews, trivia, related pop culture,
etc, etc. Once done, I was going to make my grand announcement.

Then I found out what an incredible amount of work it is, especially when
most of my material comes from vinyl or is the audio snatched from a video.
On top of that, I am always struggling with starting one project before
completing another, so all my "shows" are up in the air.  I'm already
reworking one before it ever was finished!  I'm a basket case...

here's what's up so far:

THE TIME TUNNEL - Movie and TV soundtracks, trailers, radio spots, snack bar
announcements, commecials
 This is the show being reworked, my pet project, my pride and joy.  You'll
hear everything from The Little Fugitive to Tom Terrific to a commercials
for Hai Karate and Creepy Crawlers.  Over five hours long - whew.

Listen now by clicking here:
http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?autostart=basichip

See the playlist and some covers here:
http://www.basichip.com/live365/timetunnel/time_tunnel_playlist.htm

CRIME TIME!  Just like it sounds - the sounds of spies and private eyes.
pretty familiar material to most of you, good stuff

Listen now by clicking here:
http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?autostart=oddiotroniks

See the playlist and some covers here:
http://www.basichip.com/live365/crimetime/crime.htm

Besides these, which are currently running there are:

THE FAT MOOG - Thick, artery clogging chunks of vintage moog and electronics
an all moog show (75 tracks from almost 75 different recordings)

THE SOUND OF SITAR - Curried Pop and Raga Rock - an all pop sitar show

...and of course, more whistling and songs from our feathered friends than
you could possibly stand.

Now, here is the thing.  Unless you have a DSL or Cable connection, the
listening experience ain't too good.  For Crime Time and The Time Tunnel,
it's mandatory.  You also can't jump around from track to track.  Miss that
Barbarella movie trailer?  Stick around for five hours, it will loop around.

Out of over 30,000 Live365 stations, it's hard to get noticed.  So I don't
get many listeners.  Ya gotta advertise, or else nobody pays any attention.
Even after I advertise, nobody may care.  From what I've seen, soundtrack
types would rather hear the great John Williams' score from Superman III
ripped from a CD than to hear his score to "Checkmate" when he was Johnny
Williams.  But the people that have tuned in have been very generous with
their praise.

Have a listen if you can and please share your comments.

Once I'm satisfied with the final product suggestions and / or advice to
spread the word would be most appreciated.

I'm pooped -

over N out

Well, I THINK it's a theremin - does not say so on the album, which is "Lure

The track is Kashmiri Song.

hey thanks!

Becasue of the way Live365 is set up, one broadcaster can run only one show
at a time.  i have two accounts, so the maximum number of shows I can run is
two.  Running now are the two I mentioned last night.

To switch, one has to be stopped, and the other started.

I'll make the change in a couple of days and let you know.

The Sound Of Sitar is a coded as 32kb files, so a DSL / Cable is not
required.  Of course, the sound quality drops.

:(

Subject: (exotica) Howard Roberts Reissues

Has anyone else seen these new Howard Roberts 2-on-1 reissues on Sundazed?

They seem very cool.
I bought one - 'jaunty/jolly'/'Guilty!', and it seems excellent - nice upbeat pop/bossa jazzguitar instros.
There are a few great HR tracks in the Ultra Lounge series, and 2 or 3 or them seem to be taken from these albums.

Are there any other particularly cool Howard Roberts albums I should hear?

cheers,

Jonny

Subject: (exotica) recent buys

hi all,

   well, some recent purchases.

  heaven/earth - the free design
  one by one - the free design

           ever since buying that first free design disc i feel somewhat
compelled to buy up all their discs before they disappear here(only one shop
carries a good selection of their releases here). i have yet to fully take
in these two. but i was a bit surprised by one by one in that i am not sure
i like it that much. i think it sounds different somehow than i was
expecting it to. heaven/earth had  the sound i was expecting. is one by one
a  later release?

  i love you alice b. toklas/kaleidoscope osts.

           chuck was raving about these awhile back and i have to agree with
his raves. i am really enjoying these(got mine from jack diamond too).
whenever i hear the alice b. toklas theme it really makes me want to see the
movie again.


     melodies and mischeif(space age pop vol. 1) - v.a.

               my first post to the exoticalist was about this series of
compialtions and now i finally have all three. i think these three rca comps
are actually better than the ultralounge series.  i don't seem to pull out
the few ultralounge comps i have very often, but i pull these out quite a
bit more often.  great to hear the markko polo adventurers. something i
really want more of. volume two in this series(mallets in wonderland) has
"jungle drums" by esquivel. this isn't on any of my other esquivel cds.
where does it come from?

    harry up hosono -haruoumi hosono best selection

           hosono was one of the founding members of ymo(and i think
responsible for their martin denny cover of "firecracker"). this selection
is from his days before ymo. maybe not heavily EXOTICA but nice and jazzy
and mellow. included here is a cover of "chattanooga choo choo". who is
hoagy carmichael? there  is a song here sung in english written by him. i
think the title is "hong kong blues". ring a bell with anyone?

        sun - ling
        chou hsuan

     two comps of old chinese music i picked up recently. chou hsuan sounds
like it was recorded in the 30s and 40s and is quite good though i am still
taking it in. some songs have a certain chinese opera influence in them.
that mixed with more pop/jazz influences. sun-ling sounds like it was
recorded later but i am not exaclty sure when.  there's a small page about
shou hsuan here:  http://www.ne.jp/asahi/bai-dai/tokyo/zoume.htm  and
another here
http://cet.middlebury.edu/Smitheram/ZhouXuan/ZX.html
that looks like you might be able to download some samples from. but i
haven't tried myself.

           and one last thing, i am really surprised more people from this
list have not been to jonny's musical taste site and written up reviews of
songs for it. if enough people write song reviews for it it could be an
excellent companion to johan's exotiquarium. so far no one's even written
about the exotica heavyweights - martin denny, les baxter, esquivel, yma
sumac, xavier cugat, perez prado. i highly reccomend that people check out
his site: http://www.psychedelicado.com/indexmt.html

                        william in taipei.

    i completely agree with what you said, yet i use the "so bad
it's good" tag myself sometimes for sheer simplicity: everyone knows
what kind of music i'm talking about. what "politically correct"
alternative can you suggest for the  "so bad it's good" tag, for
artists  like Mrs. Miller? "incorrect" music is just a euphemism, i
think.

Irwin & Michelle (who coined the term) mean a bit more by this.  They include music from industrials and training films, propaganda, music that's polished/professional ("good") but otherwise a bit off.

Found this gem the other day. Absolutely the sickest

More on the TV series:

"The most hideously bizarre Christian thing on
television is 'Captain HookÆs Christian Pirate
Puppets', a trully demented cable program hosted by a
real
 multiple-amputee; heÆs missing an arm and a leg. This
show is obviously aimed at the 6 and under crowd, but
they choose some of the most bizarre subject matter to
 be talking to little kids about. In one segment,
"Mrs. Hook" (the CaptainÆs wife) talks about how "God
is not a child molester", with a big zombie-smile on
her face.
          Another time, The captain performed an
autopsy on a puppet, pulling out beer cans,
cigarettes, and eventually realistic rubber
prop-organs.

  In one episode, they found a bunch of stowaways on
the ship, and they started throwing them overboard,
making them walk the plank. The captain commented
 "Those who donÆt walk with Jesus will have to walk
the plank!" -- quite a good message to send to kids!
The Creme de la Creme was when the captain broadcast a
  segment where he explained how he lost his arm and
leg in a motorcycle accident. The segment was full of
gorey, full-color drawings depicting the whole
incident.
                         Remember -- this show is for
children under 6! It must have really warped quite a
few young minds. "

Did I hear on their netcast something about it being available for $10 US a
month?  (not referring to the survey question).

Re: Live365.  I did searches for "lounge" "Exotica" etc and came up with a
bunch of stations.

Also, I was able to set up my own station on radio.netsonic where I can
choose my own artists (you need a lot to get it going).

However, I prefer luxuria.  The fact that its live, really makes it feel
much more personal than the others I have listed above.
