Falling in love with Analord


Guest LoveRhino

Recommended Posts

Where's your girlfriend is a very good track but I have never really been able to sink my teeth into it properly either.
Besides the clear masterpieces like Phonatacid and co', I found Halibut acid (original mix bonus track) and flutternozzle are recent favourites that I didn't pay much attention too previously but that blow me away now.

Chosen Lords is a great comp! It captures quite well the whole Analord feeling in general. Yes, it lacks a few great tracks like VBS.Redlof.B, Lisbon acid, Homemade Polysynth or I’m Self Employed but IMO the key tracks can be found from the said release. I usually tend to pass digital releases but purchased the Analord series from Rephlex.com. I also own the Russian pirate 3CD version which I traded for some old Coil discs which were just laying around without much play. On a side note I can’t understand why Where’s Your Girlfriend gets so much praise. I find it somewhat mediocre track. :unsure:

 

Anyway volumes 4 and 7 are my favorites.

I find it interesting that you call Homemade Polysynth and I'm Self Employed great but Where's My Girlfriend mediocre because I always kind of lumped those tracks together as being thematically similar along with klopjob and Crying in Your Face. They all have a very plaintive, reflective, personal feel to them with strong melodies. Kind of like robots singing away their troubles.

 

If I were to make a "Plaintive Lords" collection they would all be there.

LOL, I too think that all those three have the same vibe and could be lumped together (nicked your phrase here) but yet for some odd reason I don't find WYG as good as the two other ones. I don't hate it but it just doesn't click. Then again I didn't like I'm Self Employed when I first heard it but I love it now. I guess though that I won't ever fully get Where's your girlfriend since I've listened to it as many times as the other tracks and it still doesn't make any wonders.

Dude, listen to Where's Your Girlfriend (Another Version) followed up straight away by the original version.

 

B-b-b-but what if I still didn't love it and it turns out that I'm not a real fanboy. You know my whole life being over and that shit :ohmy:

ahhh this thread takes me back, I love anal lord.

 

about the out of tune synths (which richard commented on under pseudonym on another board, maybe on planet mu?), a good example is the start of "home made polysynth, e.g., the top notes of the initial chords are too high:

Cilonen is pretty awesome, but I have to say this mashup works incredibly well. This is now the definitive version of the track.

Is that all OSCar, or is it just the background melody? Fucking lush song nonetheless!
