Ansum — A Hundred Days Off industry promo

[joethelion]

I think AHDO is a very good album... but it could have been an incredible one had there been some changes here and there, like:

Mo Move should've been longer. Before this thread came up - I was actually about to make an 'extended mix' of it using the album version, those two tracks ripped off "Word Image Sound Play", "Ansum" and "Quick Bit for the Web" (and probably "Tiny Clicks" as well) -> now that it seems this 'early version' of the track is going to be shared... It saves me a bit of work!

DA3D should've been switched for the "RCM Version"

that horrible off-beat percussion on "Little Speaker" just shouldn't have existed.

I would've changed the sequencing of the album as well (and probably switched some of the bsides for album tracks -> I just find "Ballet Lane" boring)

I still REALLY like "Luetin" but yea... it totally sounds like it was a track from the early 00's -> kinda Royksopp-y... maybe it should've been longer as well - with a ambient intro (like how they played it live a few years ago, or on the John Peel show)

Plus "Twist" was such a great song live... but it definitely doesn't have the same 'oomph' on the album version... maybe pushed Karl's guitar a bit in front more, had the track start with the percussion, then had the piano fade in (so it sounds less of a "Banstyle retread")
