  1. Re-doing a #MusicWomenWednesday from 2024, as the video I'd linked to disappeared and I had to grab a new one.

    When I was a kid in the 90s, I had a Wax Trax video compilation on VHS that had this great cover of Patsy Cline's "Walking After Midnight" done by Los Angeles' BRAINDEAD SOUND MACHINE. This was the first way I ever heard this song, and I'm crazy about this version.

  2. Haha, I saw that I'd received an email from Wax Trax!, the seminal Chicago EBM label of the 80s/90s the other day.

    Back to back, it was about Front 242 and My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult. Ha. I felt like I was back in 1988. 😃

    Neil Ardley
    KALEIDOSCOPE OF RAINBOWS (1976)

    i said nearly 7 years ago:

    ‘tightly conceived maybe-partly-#aleatoric-by-the-sound-of-it psychedelic funk/jazz/#prog #fusion… distinct from Ardley’s New Jazz Orchestra stuff… Snobs wouldn’t mark the opener ‘experimental’ but it’s that: ten minutes of relentlessly fractalizing Crimson-style mathematical #architecture…which bursts cinematically into #funk-#blues colours (etc)’
