I think that the pairing works better than we imagined... Just a word to the (casio?) comment, the blips are from the auto percussion feature on our old Lowery organ, mutated with the help of a Boss-303. If anyone is interested in some more noise it can be found here. http://www.myspace.com/courtand7th<BR/><BR/>We are just about the most apathetic group of men you'll find in terms of self promotion so it is always with great admiration for the effort of work of others when we say thank you.

I also noticed that there's a completely different tone to the shots where there's attenuation in the atmosphere, primarily moisture. Some are really crisp and clear (like the one in this post) while others catch the fog, which catches the light in a way that could be creepy, but isn't really at all.NABhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03385737206388719961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619321320076553248.post-7418125575909904952009-02-13T13:07:00.000-05:002009-02-13T13:07:00.000-05:00i really like the song... it reminds me a little b...i really like the song... it reminds me a little bit of that sunset rubdown band. and something else i can't figure out. great use of a casio (?) beat. really nice warmth to the recording, too.<BR/><BR/>and that photo series is great! there's something really voyeuristic and almost chilling about them. it's interesting, because there are a few in which there aren't any lights on in the houses/apartments, and those ones evoke such a different feeling. it's interesting how the lights focus the narrative of the photographs and lend the voyeuristic quality. <BR/><BR/>the photos reminded me of the cover on yo la tengo's <I>and then nothing turned itself inside out</I>. i thought it might have been done by him, so i looked it up and it was shot by "surrealist photographer and yale professor" <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_Crewdson" REL="nofollow">gregory crewdson.</A> kind of a similar feel: <A HREF="http://stylefiledesign.com/designblog/?p=122" REL="nofollow">here</A> and <A HREF="http://www.artnet.com/usernet/awc/awc_thumbnail.asp?aid=424261590&gid=424261590&works_of_art=1&cid=75394" REL="nofollow">here</A>.BJKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17661848156141924913noreply@blogger.com
