My album this week is a reissue of the ambient classic from 2001. It's been going for silly prices on Discogs these last few years. However, it's just been re-issued on vinyl and digitals. "An almost forgotten but bona fide Ambient classic floats up on a 20th anniversary edition with the legendary Glasgow-based Ampoule label, newly remastered with a bonus cut for added immersion - highly recommended to fans of BoC, Balil, Porter Ricks. Still every bit as woozy and gouched-out as we remember, Pub’s gingerly wistful debut album ‘Do You Ever Regret Pantomime?’ is a cult classc for those that know; a sublime example of a peculiar sound at its sensitive best. Back in 2001 it saw lots of rotation at our auld shop Pelicanneck and has since become prized for its effervescent melodies and light-touch drum programming that acknowledged and parsed influence from then-contemporary hip hop and post-rock as much as the prevailing trends of ambient and minimal techno. A plangent, elusive sense of nostalgia that arguably prefigures modes of hauntology beautifully percolates the album, dwelling on a melancholy state of mind that, with hindsight, speaks to a timeless sort of wistfulness and tentative tension surrounding the early years of the millennium - which now seems incredibly distant and naive in the midst of 2020’s shitstorm. The tracks are perhaps detectably burred with a gently rolling accent and crepuscular glow that we’d attribute to Pub’s Scottish provenance and which clearly resonates with BoC, so it’s maybe best to play this album after theirs, when its vaporised textures and thizzing melodic tendrils will best work their exceedingly subtle yet palpable magic."

This is the place to post your classic cup images. Solo is a long-time manufacturer and restaurant supplier specializing in disposable foam products. There are other brands to be sure. Their most iconic design is the "Solo Jazz" cup (thanks roasty), pictured below. You can also post classic sugar, salt & pepper, and condiment packet images -- anything for the consumer-on-the-go. Also, be on the lookout for the ultra-rare, orange cup. You've seen it in movie theaters on Seinfeld. We do not know the name of this cup.

Chill Number This is a track and goofy video for sports / animals fans I made as Coolio Franco. I am pretty new to the board so you can imagine I was, uh, slightly embarrassed when I saw the thread about terrible band names. In my defense, it was my championship fantasy baseball team name back in 2005 so, well, there's that. I can't imagine there are lot folks from UK familiar with veteran-great Julio Franco. Anyway, I'm going for a relaxed 90s indie idm thing (Ultramarine, etc.). This track doesn't have too much 303/909 stuff but that's where I typically like to be. Also, I like to have some simple vocals-- in this case the song is about my wife getting me to appreciate the beach :) Maybe I'm getting too ahead of myself, but I would love to find a home for my stuff-- maybe an opportunity to put a track or two on vinyl. If you have any suggestions in that area I'd love to hear them. As always, constructive criticism is always appreciated. I think this track is my most enjoyable. My sig is a link to more of my stuff.
