746b ..

from Germany ...

an old bed-ridden-produced number - in the press ...



"I knew naturally my nose from the previous collective did not raushalten and again as curiously, as this lady became. There I discover nevertheless DJ Group from Hong Kong, which turns around "John of" this laptop, who is among other things with Tepsichoregroup thereby. Around gehts actually not, but around steven Ives, which this very beautiful mix from own works in live-manier in August 2002 in the studio 746B in Hong Kong put down. For a long time I did not feel no more a purity, as this Ambient of masterpieces puts it to day. To produce likewise a depth, which is more organic, than one is able to think. Here situations are expenditure-cost, as one can experience them only with all its senses, are it with fear, isolation, curiosity, dreamingness, melancholy, mourning or simply only, in order to give to its soul new inspirations. Unknown worlds enters, who goes on the way of the uncertainty... Immediately of a wisdom of Dalai Lama, which announces there, reminds me: "spend each day some time alone. Open for the change your arms, but do not lose sight of thereby your values not.""

no idea what that is all about - the original says something like this ....

Ich konnte natürlich meine Nase aus dem vorherigen Kollektiv nicht raushalten und bin wieder so neugierig, wie diese Dame geworden.

Da stoße ich doch auf diese Laptop DJ Group aus Hong Kong, die sich um "John von" dreht, der unter anderem bei Tepsichoregroup dabei ist.

Um den gehts eigentlich garnicht, sondern um Steven Ives, der diesen sehr schönen Mix aus eigenen Werken in Live-Manier im August 2002 im Studio 746B in Hong Kong hinlegte.

Lange habe ich nicht mehr eine Reinheit verspürt, wie es diese Ambient Meisterwerke zu Tage legen. Ebenso eine Tiefe zu erzeugen, die organischer ist, als man zu denken vermag.

Hier werden Situationen ausgekostet, wie man sie nur selbst mit all seinen Sinnen erleben kann, sei es bei Angst, Einsamkeit, Neugier, Verträumtheit, Melancholie, Trauer oder einfach nur, um seiner Seele neue Inspirationen zukommen zu lassen.

Unbekannte Welten betritt, wer sich auf dem Weg der Ungewissheit begibt...

Das erinnert mich sofort an eine Weisheit von Dalai Lama, der da verkündet:

"Verbringe jeden Tag einige Zeit allein. Öffne der Veränderung deine Arme, aber verliere dabei deine Werte nicht aus den Augen."

So there ya have it ... me - as expected - am none the wiser ...

Go billy boy - GO

About time I suppose that someone kicked Jacks bleedin-ead-in ....



Being far more intelligent than Mr White, and having had a lot of practice at this sort of thing after spats with his ex, wonky faced art loon Tracey Emin, Childish replied rather better in an open letter: "Though I have undoubtedly angered Jack White, I think it's a bit nasty of him to accuse me of plagiarism merely because his former admiration of my work was not reciprocated," he wrote with a twinkle in his eye.

Childish then went on to continue, rather magnificently: "It all smacks of jealousy to me. I have a bigger collection of hats, a better moustache, a more blistering guitar sound and a fully developed sense of humour. The only thing I can't understand is why I'm not rich. Yours sincerely, Billy Childish."
