I'm going to take a stab at the dark, but I'd really, really, really
like to know this song ID. OK, here we go.
last minute song ID (I'm hoping we've got some netflix fanatics on this list :)
Last Minute is a film directed by the Director of Blade, Stephen
Norrington. It only came out on DVD. It stars Max Beesley (a once
upon a time producer/musician and costar of Glitter, yes Glitter).
There is a soundtrack out on palm records. The soundtrack contains
songs from aphex twin, luke vibert, spacer, amon tobin, etc. There is
a song in the movie that is not on the soundtrack, and I
cross-referenced all the songs in the credits (and it appears to not
be listed in the credits. I could be wrong, but I tried to be pretty
thorough before coming to the list).
Towards the end of the scene (scene 5 on the DVD), where Max Beesley
(in a white t-shirt at this point in the photo shoot) is at a photo
shoot where Udo Kier (of The Kingdom, Blade, a couple of Andy Warhol
movies and 200+ other movies, madonna's sex book and 2 or 3 videos of
madonna's including erotica) is the photographer. Does anyone know
who and what this song is? It's not quite drum 'n bass, but it is
very uptempo and has these melodic, reverby, dreamy keyboards on top.
This music is also used in a couple of places within the DVD hidden
menus (in particular, under "features", then the "question mark",
then "music video selector").
I'm crossing my fingers.
london elektricity
I finally got a hold of london elektricity's billion dollar gravy.
I'm glad that someone is still making quality d'n b music. All of the
hospital records releases always seem to be quality releases. All of
the songs are fantastic except for a couple. It's rare that I can
play a CD all the way through nowadays, but comes close. Cum Dancing
is old, but it is still such a great tune.
linda lewis
When DJ Duane of Negroclash in NYC told me about Linda Lewis. I was
like who? when? Linda Lewis is this UK singer/songwriter/guitar
player who released 4 albums on Reprise, and 2 I think on Arista
during the seventies. She is still recording on independent labels. I
got this compilation of hers called Reach for the Truth on Rhino. I
don't like buying compilations, but her CDs are out of print, and
they were only available in Japan when they were released. I was able
to find my favorite album of hers, based on the tracks on the
compilation, Fathoms Deep, as a japanese CD on ebay. Can't wait to
get that in the mail.
I'm totally blown away by her music. Why haven't I heard of her
before? I feel the same way about her as I did when I found out about
Betty Davis. Wow! Whoa! She has a multi-octave range, and reminds me
of a cross between Minnie Riperton and Nicolette vocally. Her
songwriting reminds me of Joni Mitchell's. I'd check her out if
you're into seventies soul/funk/rock/folk. She's kind of all over the
place.
