I think so. Can't find any UK cinemas showing it.

You said that last year, and the year before, and the year before that! Mike? Please!

Lol I went through his whole back catalogue (well selected 4 or 5 tracks off every album) a few months ago and probably have another dozen albums to get through. Bonkers. But surprisingly the decent stuff is very decent indeed. This man keeps his listeners on their toes that's for sure.

Yes Agora is a tip-top album. Strange I'm not much into his earlier, perhaps more famous LPs.

Just listened to this, didn't recall seeing a thread for it but The Legendary Rubin Farr has made one. Nice one Rubin, Trent, Atticus and Boys Noize. In that order of importance

I didn't think much of Mindhunter (only watched 3 episodes) but seem to be in the minority with that opinion.

I quite like watching band documentaries if there is a good story to tell, even if the music sucks. UB40 would be a classic example. Back in the early 90's they were fucking huge (they were quite popular in the 80's) but they were selling out football stadiums in the early 90's. They get home after some huge world tour. Where's the money? There isn't any! The record industry since day one of the blues artists has been the devils work. And the cunt who runs Spotify is the latest shadowy character making deals at The Crossroads.

Wasn't it always the case, that bands even fairly big ones made little money from record sales, even back in the day when record companies were charging £13 for a CD. Pretty sure it was, apart from maybe a few exceptions (U2 springs to mind) Pretty sure there was even a UK government enquiry into it. Wasn't it the reason why George Michael and Prince both rebelled against their record companies because they made hardly any money from record sales because of the original contracts they signed as youngsters? I remember Don Henley saying he made a few thousand dollars from one of his biggest multi million selling solo hits because David Geffen personally screwed him over on some contract technicality. I think sometimes people are looking back with rose tinted glasses and think that everyone back in the day before streaming made a mint by being in fairly well known band. What I'm saying is that it's mostly been the case that musicians have been ripped off by the music industry. Spotify isn't new in that respect. I haven't read this thread in its entirely so maybe there is something I'm missing, but just thinking out loud really.

Thought this was very average. Didn't do much for me at all. Bit too 'disco' if you get my drift. Double Standard was okay when the drums go fast. Hmmm not usually disappointed with Skee Mask, probably fine on the dance floor though. Not for me.

This thread is pretty fucking trippy...

Lot of people I know have watched this and its supposed to be fucking terrible, especially that gimp Connor MacGregor (or whatever his name is)

Do you mean a vat of LSD or a vat of Hydrochloric Acid?

I haven't listened to Random 35 Tracks Tape as much as I should have. Maybe only half a dozen times. Criminal isn't it. I think you gotta be in a certain mood for it, if I remember it's really down tempo? Will listen this week.

Funny, I'm not really into studios and all the gear as I don't make music but I'd be champing at the bit if I could take a peak into Aphexs and BOC studios. Bet it's absolutely fascinating. God knows how excited some of you lot would be!
