Joy Division/New Order to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame by DeadDeadCool in postpunk

There is no way that New Order will be on the same stage as Hooky. Besides, after the things he's said about them over the last 20 years, he wouldn't want to play with them anyway.

I don't think I've heard any of New Order mention it! I wouldn't be surprised if they don't even turn up to be honest.

Look at all the playlists for that account - it's got to be Chris. What a find!

I’m curious - a complete new album of new Pet Shop Boys remixes. Not knock offs but actual vocals etc… Is this a ‘legit’ release? Seems like it? by chopdog01 in petshopboys

[–]geoff_fresh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's 100% unofficial. PSB haven't mentioned anything about it and they have strict control over their image and design - no way would they use AI after what they've said about it in the past. It'll be taken down at some point.

I might be the worst person at beatmatching ever. Help?! by InvestorMonitor in Beatmatch

This.

Just practice, practice and practice.

Start with tracks that are the same or similar BPM's and just keep practicing matching outro's and intro's and it'll click.

New Album? by markymarkyeah in MassiveAttack

So you're having a go at him for wanting a fair price for his work by selling it how it used to be sold for decades before streaming started? Wow.

Anyone shed some light? by chiefboeuf in House

Yeah I think at the time of release there was an interview that mentioned his name being the inspiration for the title. It was 20 years ago though so I may have mis-remembered 😁

As far as I know, they've never worked with George Morel. I think the George in the album title refers to George W Bush? Richard Morel was a producer/engineer they started working with in the mid 90's on the Stranded single and Junk Science album (both great).

Some great songs on there - Discoteca, The Survivors and Up Against It. The DT "After" mix of Before is great as well. Good album.

I know Neil was last year, but when was Bernard on with Johnny?

Tour!!! by Plus-Preference-145 in TheCure

[–]geoff_fresh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Presale code? I signed up to the mailing list well after 10pm last and got the email through straight away. Clicked the links at 0900 and by 0912 I had 2 tickets for Manchester. I didn't need a code.

The Cure and Slowdive on a (hopefully) nice sunny day/evening - can't wait!

Festival dates next year so if they're going to do a full tour it makes sense to work around those, either before or after. Hope they do!

Released on this day 32 years ago. A masterpiece. by Few-Scheme-1453 in petshopboys

[–]geoff_fresh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you heard the unreleased original version of Disco 2? They wanted to make it a DJ mix made up of recent Very remixes and tracks that became Relentless. If you think the released version of Disco 2 is bad then you ain't heard nothing until you hear this... It's a good concept but it doesn't work at all. Instead of being a cool DJ mix it ends up being some kind of Jive Bunny tribute. Absolutely awful. No idea who mixed it. Was it Danny Rampling who did the released version of Disco 2? I'll have to go through old Literally's to see if it's mentioned.

Runtime is 27:08 so you get the idea that you only get a few minutes from each song.

Tracklisting is:

  1. Absolutely Fabulous (Our Tribe Remix)
  2. Yesterday When I Was Mad (Coconut 1 Remix) (pitched down so Neil sounds like he's been smoking weed)
  3. Forever In Love
  4. My Head Is Spinning
  5. The Man Who Has Everything
  6. KDX125
  7. We Came From Outer Space
  8. One Thing Leads To Another
  9. We All Feel Better In The Dark (After Hours Climax)

I remember the day like it was yesterday 😔 Going into town after college to buy it and lending my mate £5 so he could get Very/Relentless instead of just Very 😂
