HMV in the UK are selling this for 2.99ukp or something like that at the
moment - perhaps this is the reason why!!!

I've been stumbling over that as well.
Maybe it's a mistake and it's actually meant to be TSOCD? (That's why
I was browsing the charts...)

>They are number ONE on the indie chart.

FGTH being #1 on the _indie_ chart - that's the biggest joke of the century!

Subject: (ztt) Dream On Contest

Hello List!

Does anyone remember, this contest on the old AON web pages (on the ZTT
site), where you could win a 'Dream On' 12"?!

Well, I had forgotten - until I got a parcel from ZTT on Friday, which
made this Dream come true! It's incredible!
They've updated the ZTT/AON pages. Apparently you can read all the entries
to the contest, which I enjoy reading a lot.

And there's announced five winners...

   For the US fans : Does anyone know if the video for "Metaforce" has been
shown on MTV at all ? I've only seen "Close To The Edit" on Amp about a year
or two ago.

Subject: (ztt) New AON CDs

Just received my AON disc from Tower Records.

5 o'clock yesterday - Received custom CD from US ($3 P&P)
7 o'clock yesterday - Received AON 'Debussy' album, Signed!!!, with extra 4
tracks CD (includes Metaforce mix only available on Vinyl in the UK), ($30
P&P)

Guess whos a happy bunny?!! (besides being stuff by Towers P&P policy)


ME!!!

BTW - If you love the commericial release of the 'Debussy' disc, you may
want to look into finding the 1st advanced pre-release version of the disc
as it is very different to the proper one. In my opinion the advanced
version has a better track order and some better mixes.

www.eil.com is one place to look for it, or www.slcd.com

      In my opinion, this would the bomb-ass line up to end all bomb-ass
line ups :


      Kraftwerk
      Art of Noise (with J.J. and Gary back along with everyone else)
      Yello
      Orbital
      808 State
      Pet Shop Boys
      Vangelis
      Jean-Michel Jarre
      Zapp & Roger (if they were still here with us, God Bless them)
      Tangerine Dream
      Underworld
      Kitaro
      Mickey Hart/Planet Drum
      Orb
      Depeche Mode
      Shannon (wasn't "Let The Music Play" one of the first acid
         tracks ? Of course many wouldn't agree, but 1984 is
obviously earlier than the 2nd summer of love in 1988.)

     Anyone else want to add to the list ?

Subject: (ztt) A personal response to 'seduction'

Greets, fellow ZiTTs.  I hope you dont mind some indulgence on my part as to offer my initial take
on 'the seduction of claude debussy' after my virgin and complete listen:
Two words: Wow (repeat)
I am so pleased with this disc and know that it I will listen to it many times.  How many times have
I played 'daft' as loud as I can take it?  How many times as well to 'Closing of the Year'?  That 8
year difference shows great maturity in Ms Dudley and Mr Horn just as the 8 year difference does
from then to 'seduction'.
Up to now I've had to listen to my (imaginary, mind you; don't want anybody to get in trouble here)
MP3 of 'Rapt ~ Egoism'.  It was both a different mix and at only 22K.  All the while I enjoyed that,
but wondered what lay before and after it.  Now I know.  And every frame (as it is a digital
recording) seems properly placed.  My sense about half-way through was that the frolicking of the
"'Who's Afraid' AoN" has matured much like the Beatles from 'Please Please Me' to 'Abbey Road'.
There's no mistaking the style, or I should say styles: e.g the lingering end note with sharply
edged guitar flutters, the solo estrogenical* croon, the general manner of first pulling you in
close then rushing around you like standing under a waterfall...and that laugh-out-loud moment when
the refrain from 'Moments in Love' twinkled by...  Did I mention I really enjoy this album?
When it gets down to it, I wouldn't want Yes to make a new 'Close to the Edge', nor John Hughes
another 'Ferris Beuller'.  I also wouldn't want AoN to make another 'Who's Afraid'.  What they did
make here is just plain wonderful.  I'm also quite impressed with the CD boolet's design and layout.
And the fact that several mixing engineers and years seemed to pass to record this LP, yet it all
sounds as cohesive to me, at least on first listen, as if it were recorded in a single day.  I also
like that there's a 'Bonus CD' enclosed, but the packaging for that leaves something to be desired.
Ah well.  I have extra CD jewel cases for just such an occassion.
Still, this is AoN as I could only imagine them almost 2 decades after their initial partaking.
Like all good things which can change over time, I consider that AoN has changed for the better.
Thank you for your time and I hope you all can enjoy 'seduction' as much as I.

- -Dave B

Subject: (ztt) the custom CD

Somewhere Paul Morley must be laughing his head off.
His remarks in the recent DJ-mag interview as to why fans would scramble to
find the promo for Dream On
is rather stupid if you ask me.
Yes This is what being a fan is! Off course you would want to hear
everything your favorit band has made.
So in addition to having great trouble finding this recording, I also have
to be laughed in the face by one of the members of the band.
Isn't that nice.
And he's at it again.
The recent custom CD that is only available to fans in UK and USA is
driving me crazy. So it seems you guys won't be getting my
hard earned money this time. Suit yourself.
Paul Morley must be having the time of his life

I consider Shannon's "Let the music play" as one of the best dance songs ever.
I would add to your list the following bands/authors:

- -Higher Intelligence Agency
- -Orb
- -Rockets
- -Vince Clarke
- -Software
- -Spacetime Continuum

It's available _everywhere_ now!

Ready some money and read this, which had been posted to the AON chatlist
yesterday:
