Grace - Page 4

Oh, so glad Telematic Peel has been transformed to Grace! Sounds great.

As for the Moby comparison: er, no. Moby's voice is thin and not always in pitch, but he tries hard. Karl's voice here has some great effects, sounds like when you put a chorus on at high frequency and it wahs all over the place.

Sidenote: i remember reading a review of Moby's "Play" when it came out (1999? wow, where do the years go?), and the reviewer compared "Machete" to Underworld. "really?" i thought - well, maybe something agressive like "Tin there" or "Leave home remix 1". But still, not a lot in common between the Mobester and UW. But i've liked them both. Well, Moby, i'd loved 1992-2001. UW, there's never been any away time!

OT, but I've been listening to Moby's 18 plus its b-sides recently, and I think it's criminally underrated.

18 to me felt like a re-do of play, and everything since has been mediocre. i have to say, at one time i was a very avid moby collector... i actually have his "rarest record", and he mentioned me by name in his journal when i had him sign it, which i guess makes it even rarer.

it's rather ironic, i have tons of these ultra-rare moby singles (several from the now defunct outer rythym, instinct, & low spirit record companies) and i hardly ever listen to them. the only moby i really love anymore is 'play' which is one of my favourite albums of all time, and the really early underground stuff from 89-91.

oh, and btw, i do not live in the UK and i cannot buy this single track, and i'd just like to say i'm absolutely not asking for anyone to not dub the m4a over into an mp3, not upload it to a site like yousendit, bigupload, rapidshare, etc. and not send it to me in a PM, because i would absolutely not appreciate it and i would not listen to it.

Interesting. I was not thinking the exact same thing after spending a couple of hours trying to sign up for an iTunes UK account with the address of a coffee shop in London and calling my bank to request a UK billing address to no avail.

Oh. I'll also say, this is how I was able to get the JAL to Tokyo EP back in the day: http://www.jbox.com/PRODUCT/itunescard

I'm sorry but I won't contaminate my computer with iTunes...is there any way else of getting this?

Only the illegal ways, atm.

kinda feel the same way about this as i do for 'always loved a film' it's ok, it's a bit sad to see that this is supposedly the final version when previous iterations seemed so much more human, but three tracks now leaked for this thing and we're getting a much clearer picture of their sound for this album. personally i think it's really slight, and if i get a whole album of 'ok' i'm going to be really bored, but there's always the alternate disc.

dubman can you give me an example of a track you actually liked?
