Date: 03 May 1999 12:18:58 EDT


Hello,
I just joined the list to ask a couple of "favours".
1) does anyone have or know the availability of the video of the ZTT concert
at Ambassadors Theatre ? I had to leave early to get the coach back to Brum
you know.

2) does anyone have tapes of propaganda gigs in Hammersmith Palais (or the
german dates from around the same time) ?

I had most of that early ZTT stuff, but lost interest after Das Psychoh
Rangers (for some reason).

Ta.

Since I've finally gotten my hands on an advance copy of "The Seduction of

entirety tomorrow morning (Thursday 5/5/99) between the hours of 6:00 am and
9:00 am Central Standard Time interspersed with other tracks (remixes
mostly) that showcase the studio wizardry of Trevor Horn.

To tune in from anywhere in the world using RealPlayer G2 (or, if you must,
Windholes Media Player), tap on http://www.wmse.org/ and follow the link at

(Of course, if you're within a 20-mile (or so - I'm guessing) radius of

Date: 06 May 1999 22:19:48 +0100


Dear ztters,

Does anyone remember a TV programme back in the early 1980's ('83 ish I
guess) which was a programme about Computing. It was presented by someone
called Chris Searle, and I think it was done by the BBC as it kept going
on about BBC B's which are (now) old computers still used by some schools.
The point being is that I want to know if I am right in thinking that the
music they used for it was a variation on FGTH's 'Two Tribes'.
I've wanted to know the answer to this question for a long while (many
years); I was only a young nipper at the time, but the music to this
programme I find had even then been lodged in my brain!
I'd appreciate any thoughts/reflections.

Thanks!
John M.

Well I didn't take offence, but I am mystified - I only finished writing
the Art of Noise articles for DJ mag (and sister mag EQ) this week and
posted them to the editors yesterday...  So how you can comment on their
content is beyond me!

Perhaps you thought that the simple, intentionally cryptic Q&A I posted
to the list a few weeks ago (the day after the interview were recorded)
was in fact the actual article!!  Unlikely, but this is the only
explanation I can think of for your mystical visions of the future...

Suffice to say that many of the 'hot' questions ARE answered in my
articles, but DJ mag and EQ now own the copyright to these - so I'm not
likely to be posting them to the list now am I?!

But thanks, James S. for your "pearls in a stagnant pond".  Quite right.

Trading futures,
Ian Peel

To the list :

I would like to express my apologies to Sir Peel (you were right in your

of what I thought was going to be included in his articles for the
respective magazines. I am truly sorry. He said that he just finished the
final copies and sent them into the editors(I was wondering why the hell I
couldn't find the new issues; do you have the street date on those Ian ? ).
By the way Ian, how do you feel about this project compared to the sediment
expressed in the AON RIP article that you published quite a ways back (It
definitely seems that one would be excited) ???

I do remember the Chris Searle computer program (Sunday mornings on BBC1),
but I'm pretty sure there was no Two Tribes-related theme, though that's no
proof.  I can't believe those old computers are still in use.  One BBC
technology progam I do remember that had a ZTT connection (and I still have
on video tape) was a Tomorrow's World special presented by Howard Stableford
(sp?) dedicated to electronic music, including a feature on Claudia Brucken,
Thomas Leer and Stephen Lipson putting Snobbery and Decay together.

I has the privilege of checking out some of Vince Clarke's gear when Erasure
were touring last time around and was very surprised to discover that the
entire show was sequenced off an old BBC micro (I'd never even seen one
before, since they never got over here to the states).

Apparently he has a spare for hot-swap purposes, just in case. :-)

I think this may be of help

>From http://www.havaccnt.demon.co.uk/hac/MicroLive.html

'The first BBC Micro made its debut in 1982 on the BBC's "The Computer
Program." It was anticipated that total sales to be in the reagion of 12,000
units. Sales eventually exceeded 1 million computers. The BBC micro was also
used for another BBC computer programs like "Making the Most of the Micro"
and "Micro Live". '

Also check out the entry in TV Cream: http://tv.cream.org/arkm1.htm

I remember the Program with Chris Serle but not it's theme tune. The theme
to Micro Live was Kraftwerk's Computer World.

Hi ztters,

Thanks to Robert/Phil/Lazlo who have so far replied to my enquiry, and
which have been noted with interest.
Phil, was that TW programme (indeed Howard 'Stableford') the one with the
Kraftwerk dummies featured on it? If so, I remember it vaguely.
As for sequencing on a BBC micro! (Lazlo) I have an Atari ST and I
thought THAT was due for a pension! :)
I intend to edit a section of FGTH's 'Two Tribes' together with a bit of
my own keyboard playing in order create an idea of how this theme tune
sounded. It may even jog a few more memories?!
I will attach it as a .WAV file, and keep it small.
Coming to you soon.

PS   Has my Newbuild LP plunged in value now that it's been rereleased?

PPS  Anybody sprung for the triple LP?  I almost did, then decided it was
     a bit excessive.  :)  Maybe I've missed out but is this disc really
     as crucial as the new liner notes make it out to be?  I never thought

it is mysteriously hidden under the "party" heading on the main page.
Overall, their web site looks pretty good but it's a little lacking in
catalog depth and music details compared to the other sites out there.  It's
still pretty new though!
Btw,  Seal sounded great!!

For those who can't wait or are not sure what to make of the mixed
reviews, I have encoded a 56 kbps / 22 kHz stereo MP3 of 3 tracks from the
12-track US promo CD of 'The Seduction of Claude Debussy':

    rapt: in the evening air
    metaforce
    the holy egoism of genius

The file size is 6.4 MB. It is available for a limited time at this URL:
http://www.hyperreal.org/~mike/pub/secure/mp3/
    Username: aon
    Password: aon

I chose these 3 tracks because they are to my ears, representative of the
content and flow of the album as a whole. Surprisingly, the album version
of Metaforce is way better than the Roni Size remix.

I'll post a full review soon.

   - Mike

I'm a little bit cheesed off that the new Art of Noise web site seems to
pay short shrift to the China Art of Noise... and was thinking, I wonder

Does anyone know if this record is still in print ? Where could I find it ?

All I know is that it was released under the artist name The Metaphor Tops.
I don't know in what quantities and formats it was issued, what exactly it
contained, or whether it's still available. In other words, all I know is
the name.

The few searches I've done for The Metaphor Tops have yielded nothing.

Anyone *ever* run across this thing? And if so, why haven't you MP3'd it
yet? Seems like the ideal candidate...

Subject: (ztt) ZTT Sampled
Date: 27 May 1999 22:14:22 +0100


Hi ztt'ers!
I'm glad as a I've just layed my hands on a copy of 'Zang Tuum Tumb
Sampled' (or 'Zang Tumb Tuum Sampled' as it says on the cover!) with
songs from 1985/6 from Andrew Poppy/Anne Pigalle/Propaganda/etc; but I
guess you fellow ztt'ers already know what this is. :-)
I have a few questions about the 'album' as a result of listening to this
for the first time:

Q1:For those who have access to a copy:
 At the beginning of 'Disneyland' by FGTH, there are some 'abstract
brass' sounds for the first few seconds. I notice these exact sounds are
also used in the 'quiet' middle section of Propaganda's 'Duel' - the
question is: which came first? (chicken or egg?)

Q2:For those who dont (or do):
 What became of 'Instinct'?


Those ZTT/XL typos still make me laugh! Though perfect ellipses
everywhere. [chaos]
The sleeve quotes:
"1. The Post-AGE - Who even thinks to ask anymore - what becomes of the
work of art in the world of mass production? No: WHAT CAN ART WORK GIVE
the world of mass production?"
Indeed.
[I'm a graphic designer]

From: [e-mail]
Subject: (ztt) Review: new Art of Noise
Date: 27 May 1999 22:59:47 -0700 (PDT)


The Art of Noise, Trevor Horn's 1983 side project, was a novel
interpretation of a 70-year-old idea of an Italian Futurist by the name of
Luigi Russolo. To listen to Horn tell it, the success of the combination
of Yes and Frankie Goes to Hollywood session hands J.J. Jeczalik, Anne
Dudley, and Gary Langan, under Horn's direction and packaged by Paul
Morley, was a complete and total accident.

Gosh, we're pioneers with this new sampling technology? People are dancing
to "Beat Box"? "Close (to the Edit)" is an international hit? How could
this be?

Please. That 'Into Battle' and 'Who's Afraid' were clever, arty, yet
mostly accessible pieces of sample-based pop-dance by _design_ is obvious.
Yet despite Horn (and Dudley)'s oh-so-British faux naivete, the fact
remains: those two albums, and arguably the Horn-less "parody" that
followed ('In Visible Silence'), are of groundbreaking importance not just
in that they created palatable music from found, sampled sounds, but also
in that they did it so _well_. And the arrival of this non-band
foreshadowed a movement in electronic music that would lend new meaning to
the term "faceless", influencing generations to come.

While the Art of Noise had some fine moments after breaking with Horn's
ZTT label in the latter half of the 1980s, its members parted ways in
1990. By the time popular interest in electronic music was surging in the
mid-90s, Art of Noise had become synonymous with bland remix and
compilation albums issued by the China label after the band's dissolution.

Against the backdrop of this time that they had been ahead of, all of the
former members discussed at one point or another the possibility of
reforming, but it wasn't until Dudley and Horn worked on Marc Almond's
'Tenement Symphony' that a new Art of Noise was born, this time without
Jeczalik and now incorporating Lol Creme and Morley again in more
productive roles. Work began in 1996 and took over 2 years to complete.
One would hope that the fruit of this labor would be a kind of redemption
for the tarnished name of the Art of Noise, a bold return to new, untested
ideas, something that would be as exciting and fresh in 1999 as 'Into
Battle' was in 1983.

Well, 'The Seduction of Claude Debussy' is a reinvention, to be sure, and
in some ways it marks a return to some of the original concepts, but it is
not by any stretch as daring as the Art of Noise of old. Further
disappointing is that its creators are standing by the "we were good by
accident" rhetoric, dismissing the contrast between the new and the old as
a misunderstanding on the part of the fans as to what the Art of Noise was
really about all along.

On some levels, TSoCD is a triumph for Horn. It's clearly his baby, and
his high production values permeate every second of the album's 60 minutes
(or so; there are multiple mixes of the album in circulation already).
Dudley's string and piano arrangements, based on relatively unknown
Debussy compositions, swoop and swirl with grandeur around drum'n'bass
styled percussion patterns, Sally Bradshaw's operatic declarations and
John Hurt's narration about the life of Debussy that is so carefully
placed at the right moments in the album.

But the implication of such deliberate incorporation of each and every
element of sound leaves the listener feeling like the new Art of Noise is
now just all about technical perfection. Where's the accidental beauty in
that? For that matter, where's the _fun_? Never has an album so perfectly
produced by such talented people been so devoid of intensity. The new Art
of Noise is very Euro, very mild, even when hip-hop icon Rakim delivers a
surprisingly tolerable rap about Baudelaire, among other things, halfway
through the album ("Metaforce"). The drum'n'bass inspired moments have
half the drums and none of the bass that they should, and the closest
thing to a real mood in this epic is the all-too-brief ambient interlude
"out of this world (version 138)".

That said, one still comes away from this album with a sense of relief.
The Art of Noise are back and whether it was deliberate or not, they have
crafted a quality album that, while not living up to anyone's expectations
or being very much ahead of its time, is more cohesive than anything AoN
-- or very many other musicians, for that matter -- have ever done. It's
not without its moments, and there's a promise of more to come. Welcome
back. We're not afraid.

My apologies if this has been mentioned before:

The July '99 edition of UK magazine 'The Mix' has a exclusive interview
with Trevor Horn in it. It seems to focus mainly on Art of Noise and the
new album.

On a different note: 808 State's Newbuild re-issue seems only to have been
imported by EVA/Caroline in the US, so it is not a US pressing.
