Favourite non-Spz release

[1+1-1]

after looking at FM Spaceman's thread re: f.buttons got me thinking about the non-spz releases- original and 'remixes' etc. my favourite is silent sound as it is very beautiful and guitar loops as kit is very clever.

yours and why?

I really enjoyed seeing the Silent Sound show Liverpool, and the CD is gorgeous. That was the only time I briefly met Jason. I was a little bit dazed and confused, and probably did not make much sense.

Couldn't really get into Guitar Loops, (felt like there wasn't renough looping or repetition for me). Maybe it is worth another go.

While not physically released, I think the best work Jason has done under his own moniker is the two Kenzo tracks.

I wouldn't say guitar loops was 'enjoyable' in terms of the music, I think it is very clever- making drum souds etc, and that it is one continuous take

my favourite is probably Silent Sound too.
the Mister Lonely soundtrack is okay.

I can't have listened to Guitar Loops more than twice since I bought it. and I like to think I have a reasonably high tolerance for the more avant garde end of music (including many of the other Treader releases!)
it may be one continuous take bit it's obviously been highly chopped up and edited

the live boots of those solo shows Jason did are better than the actual Guitar Loops record.

More than that. It's all about the repetition!

First time I heard this properly was on an amazing sound system in the outer reaches of Glasgow. Made perfect sense at the time!

A true & pure piece of beautiful, meditative and completely unhinged metal machine art music.

The thread here at the time was proper 'Rites of Spring' outrage and entertaining and remains so.

While not physically released, I think the best work Jason has done under his own moniker is the two Kenzo tracks.

Absolutely. The 'Kenzo Men' track is literally an astonishing Rocket Shaped Song and the 'Kenzo Women' track is the ultimate comedown space reggae belter.
