RE: [KLF] Trancentral lost in my mind

(a) Is the Trancentral featured in the Dutton video, the interview from brandnew.co.uk, the KSTJ video (Bill walks down the steps in front of it), and the short snippet from the Omnibus 1995 show (where you can see the word "Trancentral" written on the wall), one and the same place? Or did Jimmy move Trancentral around with him as he got more successful? Recalling from Pete Robinson's booklet; Trancentral was a squat that also housed the studio of B & J and hosted parties that produced some of the live at trancentral mixes and is the one seen in the above videos. Though i doubt if the internal shots from the white room film are really the inside of the building seen in the external shots. I recall a post from a few years ago which gave you the address of Trancentral. ------------------------------------------------------------ This e-mail message and any attachment(s) are CONFIDENTIAL and may contain legally privileged information.

Trancentral lost in my mind
by John Milne 11 Mar '03

11 Mar '03

I was hoping someone could clarify a few questions I've had about Trancentral for quite a few years ... (a) Is the Trancentral featured in the Dutton video, the interview from brandnew.co.uk, the KSTJ video (Bill walks down the steps in front of it), and the short snippet from the Omnibus 1995 show (where you can see the word "Trancentral" written on the wall), one and the same place? Or did Jimmy move Trancentral around with him as he got more successful? (b) What's the difference between "the Benio" and Trancentral? (c) Was it really a squat where all the stragglers of London dance culture used to pop in and out in various state of chemical fry, or is that just a myth? (d) Is it just the studio, or is it a flat/squat/apartment, or what, exactly? and (e) I have a track by the Levellers called "Belarus (Live at Trancentral)" and yet Bill and Jimmy are not mentioned on the sleeve (the single came out in 1993). Does this have a KLF connection, or is it just a reference? Thanks, John Not Scots, just Scott-ish

'Justified And Ancient History'/'History Rewritten'
by John Milne 11 Mar '03

11 Mar '03

Hi, does anyone know if the below are still available from the Maple Drive address? I got the info from: http://www.illitrate.co.uk/klf/FAQ/faq3002.html "'Justified And Ancient History'/'History Rewritten' Two small 'biozines' put together by teenage KLF fan Pete Robinson. The first is a history of the KLF 'from pressing 500 copies of their debut single to selling more singles than any other band'. The writing is no more than a brief summary of all their exploits, but it also contains lots of interesting material including a photo of Trancentral, an exclusive questionnaire filled in by Drummond, and the Pure Trance labels. It has sold more than a 1000 copies! The second is smaller, and about the post-KLF career of Drummond and Cauty up to and including the K Foundation's alternative award ceremony. It includes highlights from their press pack, and reprints most of the K.F advertisements. They are available by mail order for 2.30 and 1.00 UKP respectively, plus postage of 0.50 UKP in the UK, 0.65 [Europe] 1.20 [Oz & Far East] 1.50 [Rest Of The World] for each one (so if you order more than one use your judgement for what the postage should be). UK bank cheques to P. Robinson. Non-UK I dunno. From Pete Robinson, 57 Maple Drive, East Grinstead, West Sussex, RH19 3UR, UK." Thanks, John Not illiterate, just Scottish

Wow! Does that mean the two women on the front of Belle and Sebastian's "Storytelling" are actually two of the Handmaidens of Mu? I knew there was a link somewhere ... Pity Belle and Sebastian done anything decent since "Legal Man" ... John Not Stuart, just Murdoch

PSB on KLF
by Christopher Gegax 10 Mar '03

10 Mar '03

Pet Shop Boy Neil Tennant responding to question about KLF on the PSB website: Question: What do you think of the KLF? They remixed 2 of your tracks and followed a strange timeline, full of dramatic & artistic actions, doing music and experimental movies about burning money and dead sheeps amonst other things (!) Were you at the Brit awards in 92 when they did that "spectacular" performance? Answer: Jimmy Cauty (ex-KLF) has just produced the Atomizer album and it sounds great (and includes one "Ancients of MuMu" sample). N

Mancentral mistake
by John Milne 10 Mar '03

10 Mar '03

My mistake. The 1990 interview IS from Brandnew rather than Mancentral. Sorry if I mislead or misrepresented anyone! The Mancentral site still has some good stuff on it, though. John Not Scots, just Scott-ish.

Hi, On Sun 9 Mar 2003 at 22:06:33 John Milne wrote:- >>I have no idea where this interview originated from (save from the Mancentral site). >> Does anyone know anything about who interviewed them, or for what purpose the interview it was originally intended? From what you described,i downloaded these interviews from http://www.brandnew.co.uk a while back.There are 7 interviews here so maybe the person/people who made the site might have an idea of where they originated.They also have a (small) KLF gallery,a few shots of Jimmy and Bill in the studio. Looks like the same period (1990) as the clips/interviews.Photos taken by J.Mace(Inkipak)and D.Boalch.Inkipak(Jon Mace)also has a KLF mix and his own music available for download. There is no mention of who recorded the interviews. Cheers.
