Does anyone have a simple and effective tool for ripping from Soundcloud?

I've been using http://soundcloud-download.com/ for at least a year, but it seems to have stopped working for me, no idea why.

Suarez got kicked all over the pitch v Hull - he's a marked man and centre-half grunts know they have a free reign against him - the drill is pretty much follow straight through on him and then wave their arms about in indignation when he goes down as if he's just perpetrated a Fonsbury flop. It wor...

Obviously the Andy Carroll reference is a painful low-blow. I still get tremors whenever I recall the horror at the insanity of that day, when it became evident that the stories of us chasing him were not just tabloid drivel, but that we were actually going to pay 20, 25, 30, 35million for him. It f...

KingHarry

Fantastic header from Bony to equalize there, terrible time to concede. He was offside, so people can stop saying the officials are on our side now eh? :wink: which people are these? Rodgers made some odd comments following the City LFC game - is that what you're referring to? Utd beaten at home fo...

KingHarry

I don't think Liverpool played well at all today. They should have had a penalty but that man again over-doing it probably puts the officials off! He was booked for diving today, also. All in all he "went missing in a big game". I'm sure he will be back to being one of the best against Hu...

KingHarry

Suarez was a disgrace today. This is what puts me off classing him as the best in the league, he goes missing in games like this and cheats every time he has the opportunity. Liverpool were outstanding today, but he really let them down especially when they handed him the captaincy. Joe Hart was ou...

Definately one of the best LPs of last year.

He's very creative - and I hear EAR in his stuff.

I also think there's similarities between Rannoch Dawn and Sonic's Your The One off the Spectrum LP.

My biggest disappointment of the year was the Primal Scream album. Even now I cannot listen to more than 5 minutes of it. I’ve tried!! I keep thinking “I’m going to get it soon”, but it actively annoys me, and I just have to switch off after trying the first minute of 5-6 tracks. I agree with that ...

LPs

MBV
James Holden
Factory Floor
Daniel Avery
Fuxa
Darkside
Dean Wareham EP
The Asphodells
Moderat II

KingHarry

That's all correct, so I wouldn't have expected him to be presnet on all of them, but sure I've seen somewhere that his involvement was more than the single session that he's credited on. Small details - presumably this is the same period that the Splitting the Atom 7' came from?

KingHarry

On the tracklist PK is credited on 3 tracks on ABC Music, but I'm sure that I've heard, possibly from PK in an interview, that he played on more / most of it?

Can anyone confirm?

There's a 3 hour Daniel Avery Boiler Room mix available on Soundcloud.

Opens with Von Haze and then straight into Fuxa. Tremendous stuff.

The James Holden LP also recommended if you haven't got it.

from Sonic Cathedral -

Has anyone got the vinyl of the Draughtsman 1694 EP? There is a Daniel Avery remix of Frame III available only on vinyl. I wanted to know the length of said song. There is a 2-3 minute version of it on Soundcloud that is top quality. I want to know whether the actual version on vinyl only is much ex...

KingHarry

I've liked much of the stuff he's been putting out on youtube over past 2-3 years - lots of it patchy, but lots of it very good.

But the stuff that's been coming out past 3 months is definitely a step-up - far more And This is Our Music rather than Who Killed Sgt Pepper

KingHarry

Looking forward to the new Dean Wareham mini album which is due out very soon. Got the 7" from Sonic Cathedral, and it's great. Good cover of a Cheval Sombre track on the b-side. Gig at St Pancras church later in the year too - fab! Ste Great spot - will definitely be travelling down for that ...

I was also only there on the Friday - did try and hunt for the Sonic art room, but without success - girl on the merch stall (who admittedly was pretty clueless) suggested that it was only on on the Saturday?
Was PK there - I didn't see him.

Spent yesterday at the Liverpool Psyche Festival. Many, many beers with Angelsighs, Aquarian-Time and a motely crew of other desparados before and during the gig. Also ran into Clewsr and Mrs Clewsr (twice in a week Ric!). Carlton Melton were phenomenal last night. Out of the bands I saw, CM were s...

Yep I will be there ( and my mate), we are checking into digs after lunch friday then going to hit a pub for pre festival analysis and probably a tactical bite to eat, purely for soakage purposes !! We are staying on Shiel Road, L6, so Im thinking of a pre gig bevvy or two in and around the Philarm...

Should we have a show of hands for this? In 1 week will be in full swing.

Will be there - look forward to speaking to whoever there from here.

Did you get the W/H green vinyl with the 12"? I could only find it without, slightly annoying, I managed to get the W/H green vinyl with free 12" from Probe in Liverpool. I'm going to ask them to source the limited edition Wooden Shjips LP for me. I'm totally fed up of being charged big $...

KingHarry

I heard it earlier this week - the first song was quite interesting (think it is actually a reworked Black Francis solo track (they may all be?).
The third track is really pretty good.
The rest is terrible.

So-so.

KingHarry

Does anyone know when the Factory Floor LP is out? I look on Google and get lots of links for laminate flooring installation experts.

Also, the new Fuck Buttons lp - any views?

KingHarry

plus they are giving away a 7" if you act now and get a weekend ticket... get on it people! I didn't quite know what to make of that bit - I took it that you got a free 7' if you were to buy a weekend ticket from now - what about if you've already got one? Like a reverse of an early bird ticket?

KingHarry

There were some good demos of the Recurring sessions posted here some time ago - most had too much production fuzz on them for my ears, but there were some called 'The Battery Studios Demos' that had some great versions of Big City and Drive on them.

KingHarry

Probably my top tune of theirs is One More Time, with Bobby G on vocals. I have a red vinyl one sided 10" of that somewhere :wink: Kontroll off Satan's Circus and COUM and Lightening Bolt (the CD2 versions for both the latter 2) make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up every time. I love...

KingHarry

PS - Any news on the long delayed/rumoured Black Acid album? This was supposedly Fearless in full garage rock mode. There are odd tracks on YouTube and apparently promo copies exist of a full mixed and mastered album. It was meant to be released before Trans-Love Energies anyway. Anybody? http://ww...

KingHarry

The first album "Dead Elvis" is more of a dub/trip-hop affair and has some real great tracks, nowhere near as dark as "Contino Sessions" though...which is flawless in my opinion. "Scorpio Rising" again has some outstanding moments in a similar style to C/S but the incl...

Fantastic this - located in a disused warehouse on fringes of Manchester, Massive Attack backing 90 minute staging of new Adam Curtis polemic. It's still running, so people may be going to subsequent shows this wee...

shamefully I never made it - despite living 25 miles away. My typical acquaintances were n/a and last time I ventured to the Northern Quarter on my tod to see PK he never turned up, so didn't tempt fate again. Hope fun was had by all - anyone take a copy of his set. I've been listening to his APF se...

JamesT - what time is PK likely to be on and do you know for how long?
Many thanks

KingHarry

there were 2 copies of the GPS 7' on Ebay, posted yesterday at £50 a piece - seemed to have gone already.

KingHarry

just ordered that - my favourite musical evening of last year I reckon.

Poster, mp3, plus cassette (not sure what to do what this bit tbh) for £15.

Most excellent work Nathaniel.

KingHarry

Got mine too - arrived today and is indeed a thing of beauty. Opened it up and looked at it - it is gorgeous. I am however really anxious about catching the sleeve with a fingerprint due to it's lovely texture. I've also unfortunately not had a stereo for a few years now so it will have to go to on...

KingHarry

The whole thing is stunning.

Bo's Web sounds like Little Doll.

Why Couldn't I See is, as Broc says above, short but perfectly formed.

The MGMT track is also good.

Fantastic stuff - hope they don't have to pull it, deserves to reach caring homes.

KingHarry

My copy arrived this morning. I've been gazing at it throughout the day. Will be hooking the turntable up later for a first spin.

Have to say that I'm grateful to the GPS for delving into the vaults to put this stuff out.

KingHarry

Wow.

Has anyone ever heard Bo's Web?

Looking forward to this

The recent stuff they have realised is bollocks though and as Matt rightly says that 5 album run late 90's early 2000's was genius. I just don't agree with that - Sgt Pepper is patchy, and some of it is very bad. My Bloody Underground has some great stuff on it, but again patchy and suffers from ho...

There's lots of stuff outside of the actual physical releases to hoover-up too.

The whole thing is blindingly obvious to anyone other than Utd fans.
