nightspore Group: Members Posts: 4761 Joined: Mar. 2008 Posted: Nov. 09 2010, 19:34 Is this dance? Ugo, please advise!   If it is, it's by far my favourite. (Silly video, though). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BY2OFztWiuY Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Nov. 10 2010, 05:02 @ Milamber: Of course Electronic are in. They're almost PSB in their overall feel, and Neil Tennant was in there. @ Nightspore: yes, it is. And yes, the video is silly. But almost all of Dario G's videos are - except "Dream to Me" (a cover of the Cranberries song) which features a nice-looking Swedish girl singer. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Nov. 10 2010, 19:37 @ The Big BellEnd: ah, Men Without Hats. A real classic. Thanks for pulling it out. But to me that's not really dance - it's danceable pop, just like most Pet Shop Boys songs. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

They're almost PSB in their overall feel, and Neil Tennant was in there. IMO Electronics last album (Twisted Tenderness) was their best. I took 3 albums for them to develop a unique sound. Also Dario G's "Voices" is a fantastic track, a little bit Amarok at the end Back to top

The "na na na na" ending reminded me more of "Peace on Earth" than Amarok. It's clear that Milander yearns for the infinite as well.... Back to top

nightspore Group: Members Posts: 4761 Joined: Mar. 2008 Posted: Nov. 10 2010, 23:46 The silly thing is that I have the Dario G CD containing this, but until now I've only ever played "Sunchyme", as I hate "Carnaval de Paris" and "Sunmachine". Perhaps Ugo could advise me what other tracks on it I'm likely to like!   Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Nov. 11 2010, 07:35 @ nightspore: "Malaway" has samples from Australian Aboriginals, so you may like it. "Revolution" is another good track, a bit repetitive maybe. The rest of the album is a re-doing of the "Sunchyme" pattern in various settings. I find it quite likeable as a whole. The only track I don't like is "Peaches", which is pure electronics. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

A one-note musical instrument (the didgeridoo): now that's minimalism! (Perhaps this should go on the "album most like Incantations thread! Back to top

Wish Mike had covered this back in the early 80's. Here's a happy one. Gets good around 3:14 Calypso Live. Back to top

Yes, this has been posted before. It's one of the few JMJ pieces that don't "jar" with me. I think the fact that he doesn't rely on what is basically his usual rather simplistic synthesizer sound helps! Back to top
