they called it something and spelt it a specific way for a reason, whatever he says 'phase red' has it all wrong...it matters...and i do think Karl does care, he is a wordsmith and as such wants us to appreciate the art, and the spelling of a particular track is as important as the lyrics, and music...

and this is the thread for keeping track on the tracks and us anally retentive types want the right track names on our catalogues...

i'm sure born slippy would haven't have been the track it was had it been called porn slippy say?

Yes thats it.

Titles are important.

Question: Its true that titles from STITI came from the names of greyhounds?

Yeah sure, we should all try and get the titles right, but to say they are as important as the lyrics or music is a bit over the top really.

The titles are maybe randon, but they are very important for a fans. And words are not just randon then, they have some own special meaning.

Imagine to think about an album called A Hundred Years.
AHDO is much better title.

Its hard to find a good titles.

This last spring they won an award from Tower Records, Japan for having the highest sales of an techno/dance artist.

I'm sure they have also droped into the Tomato office in Omotesando, Tokyo from time to time.

What do you think the crossed out one is?

'Skyscraper'? (although it looks like Sensepaper)

Just to keep this current... based on the Japanese iTunes discovery,

"Ancient Phat Farm Coat" is released as a 19:43 version!
also new:
"Food a Ready" (7:22)
"JAL to Tokyo" (5:48) unmixed (seems to be 5:38 on Lovely Broken Thing)

hello all,
this could be apples and oranges with this question but I thought this the best place to ask... what's this 12" titled "King of Boots" that just appeared in my local bin stateside on Thursday?... an earlier release I missed?
thanks for the help,
Cheers!

that's a white label bootleg mix of King of Snake, yet another booty..
