Several songs were omitted from the soundtrack I expect they will be featured on Vol. 2, comming next year. >(there are websites devoted to this topic, and Link? It's funny though, one of my first thought after watching "Kill Bill" was "Wonder how many of those records Zorn owns!". I thought it was pretty good, even though the final section in the japanese restuarant was far too long and the climax was pretty weak (compared to, say, "Hero") Looking forward to part 2. Would be curious to read a Zorn review of the film, btw. _________________________________________________________________ Frustrated with dial-up?

Be wary! The "Official" soundtrack for Kill Bill is a poor representation of the music in the film. Several songs were omitted from the soundtrack (there are websites devoted to this topic, and from some you can download the omitted songs), and in their place you'll get a) a downright laughable freestyle rap by the RZA ('Ode to O-Ren Ishi'), b) a bad electronic version of one of the other songs on the soundtrack, and worst of the bunch c) a far-too-long salsa cover of "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" (after 9 minutes you're ready for it to end, but it's still got about 4 minutes left). Where are the two other songs performed by the 5.6.7.8's? Where is the Morricone contribution? Where is Human Beinz' "Nobody But Me?" On the whole, Kill Bill's soundtrack gets about a 6 out of a possible 10. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Shopping upgraded for the holidays!

Tzadik/Maya Deren questions
by Efrén del Valle 17 Nov '03

17 Nov '03

Hi, I was just wondering if anybody had had a chance to listen to the following new Tzadik releases: Kayo Dot, Chien-Yin-Chen, Muna Zul and Ted Reichmann. Any comments? Also, I'm thinking of ordering a Maya Deren DVD called "Experimental Films" which was released last year. I haven't seen any of her films but I'm quite curious after Zorn's soundtrack for "In the mirror...". Thanks upfront. Best, EfrÃ©n del Valle ___________________________________________________ Yahoo!

RE: black people vs. hip hop
by ahorton 16 Nov '03

>It seems to me that that's more of an "innovation" in record >collecting than it is in production as such. But in this case (as with most hip hop producers) the record collection is the tool, the palette, so El-P's record collection is analogous to Thurston Moore's modified guitars and pedals or kevin shields' wall of "glide guitar." Either way, his production is as innovative (if not more) than the samples that he begins with. Has anyone here heard "Fantastic Damage", Cannibal Ox's "the cold vein", or Company Flow's "little johnny from the hospital"? andrew

RE: beck (as nick drake) (Joseph Zitt)

i'm surprised no one's had a single good word to say about 'odelay'. i'm not a huge beck fan, but i think it's by far his best album. way, way better in my estimation than the faux-lugubrious 'sea change' or the insufferable prince-lite 'midnite vultures'. -----Original Message----- From: Toby Dodds [mailto:toby@dodds.org] Sent: Thursday, November 13, 2003 5:14 PM To: zorn-list(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: Re: beck (as nick drake) (Joseph Zitt) Sea Change is one of my favorite listens these days. The Nigel Goodrich production is Spectoresque, beautiful string arrangements and old school tektronics are brilliantly combined. There is definitely a spirit to the record that reminds me of Apple studio projects like Nicky Hopkins's Tin Man Was a Dreamer or George Harrison's All Things Must Pass. I think it's probably my favorite Beck effort - but I am not a big fan of his white funk schtick.

On the saxdrones subject: did someone mention Thomas Ankersmit? His 3"cd altosaxophone is very drone. The same with Alessandro Bosetti on the marvelous 4 x 3"cdpackage Berlin Strings. Have fun Marcel np: Uchihashi Kazuhisa: Crazy Bubbles

Kill Bill
by Jonathan feldman 15 Nov '03

15 Nov '03

Just got back from seeing Kill Bill, and my thought is: when are Zorn and Tarantino going to team up? I think Zorn's style would make for a great soundtrack for a Tarantino flick Just an idea Jonathan Feldman _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
