BEN BOGAARDT
Ben Bogaardt
1971 Canada pressing

A bit of an obscure Canadian gem.

I think I may have already posted this waaaaay back, but just in case I haven’t (and because I’m presently listening to it again), I’m posting it.

The Bogaardt Family originated from Indonesia, but eventually immigrated to Canada, settling in the city of Edmonton.

Ben joined a band with his brothers (Bill, Archie and Rick), who all appear on this wonderfully unique and record.

All of the family were musically talented, and Ben excelled both vocally and on guitar, and both of those talents are on display here.

Genre-wise, they could ping pong back and forth between R+B, , , , you name it.

Here, there’s original material, traditional, covers, as well as film soundtrack pieces.

This was a private press with a limited release in Canada, & is sought after up here.

    Compilations and samplers from record labels and such *should* be really great ways of finding new artists in theory. But it's strange, I almost never end up listening to compilations or samplers. I think maybe some of it is because all those artists and recording levels all over the place is a little stressful and overwhelming, and I also think it's because I usually end up focusing on LPs (or EPs or singles) from just one artist at a time. Even splits are supposed to be good for getting more bands out there in the same manner, but there again, it's SO rare that I like both bands on a split.

                LUCIA HWONG
                House Of Sleeping Beauties
                1985 U.S. pressing

                A wonderful, and album from Hawaii-born Lucia Hwong; which is very Blade Runner-y in some spots, and very Last Emperor in others.

                It’s got such a cool mystical and Oriental vibe to it, but also has a few brief moments of intensity.

                I’m not exactly where or when I got this; I’m guessing from some road trip somewhere in the states, or maybe when I was on tour? Because I certainly didn’t get it here.

                Again, probably not a record for the general music listener, but I e joy it a great deal.

                                In the basement tracking the Danelectro baritone through an EHX MEL9 on cello setting. It’s a slow song with long sustained chords, so I’m tweaking the celllo track over top of the baritone rhythm guitar track. The MEL9 is an interesting pedal. I think EHX must have programmed some unique properties of the original mellotron, a bit of unpredictable quirkiness. Sort of a vintage analog kinda vibe. The cello sound is pretty good, but string selection, picking and strumming have to be accurate to sound decent. This pedal sustains like crazy if you want it to, which is good for this tune, but I need the cello end trail of each long note to fade off at the right places. Light palm muting doesn’t work cuz it kills the sustain instantly. So used the floppy cuff of my plaid flannel shirt to gently touch mute the strings at the bridge. Works well. Controlled sustain note endings. The MEL9 is one of those pedals you probably wouldn’t use all the time, but it covers some ground in getting some very unique sounds for certain songs.

                                    I’ve been a lifelong devotee of Grant Lee Phillips; starting in the with those PHENOMENAL Grant Lee Buffalo albums, as well as his solo work over the past 25 years.

                                    I’ve always been enamoured of his incredible songwriting, as well as his fantastic voice.
                                    He’s one of those dudes, man. You hear him, and you know it’s him. It couldn’t possibly be anybody else.

                                    Dude is super prolific; not just writing tons of songs, but tons of GREAT songs.

                                    And yes, ladies, he does look familiar to you. You HAVE seen him before.

                                    You may remember him from all of those “Gilmore Girls” nights you’ve spent with the rest of your clucking hens.
                                    He played the town troubadour.

                                      Hands down my favorite XTC record, & it’s not even close. I’ve owned this on every format available since 1992, the year I fell in love with Andy Partridge’s genius.

                                      Other than a few songs, I knew nothing of XTC in 1992.
                                      Nonsuch was my gateway drug at 14 years old; the first WHOLE album of theirs I’d ever heard, and I was blown away. From there, I was obsessed, & started working backwards.

                                      As much as I love ALL things XTC, nothing will ever recapture the magic I felt the first time hearing this.
                                      The first three songs right out the gate are phenomenal, pure pop bliss. And from there, we get into the meat of what made them great.
                                      The bizarre, the dark, the unexpected, the 100% wholly original.

                                      A “desert island” album for me for sure. One of the great albums of my youth, and one that still holds beautiful mystery for me all these years later.

                                          Having a bit of a Thrill Jockey day today, I guess.

                                          First with some Trans Am, now a little Sea And Cake.

                                          I love all of the players in the Thrill Jockey mafia; John McEntire, Sam Prekop, Archer Prewitt…

                                          They all play on/produce/engineer each other’s records (McEntire produced Trans Am’s Surrender To The Night), and they all just seem like one big happy musical family. 😂

                                          Runner clocks in at just a few ticks under 40 mins, and is more melodic and (dare I say?) pastoral sounding. It’s a bit different than the jazzy, jittery stuff from the early records, but equally fantastic.

                                          They just have this sound about them that’s been very comforting to me over the years. They’ve never put a record I’ve disliked, and you can probably say the same about Thrill Jockey as a label.

                                            I've heard an EDM song many years ago (more than 5), it's a fairly popular one with 10M+ views you YouTube, if I remember correctly. It's a Big Room track I think, with female vocal, some Hardstyle beat at the end in the extended version. The drops remind me of Showtek songs, but he isn't the artist of this song. The name of the artist contains some animal (maybe bee? or cat?).

                                            It also has a video clip with some car chase at the middle of a desert, there's also a city at the middle of a desert.

                                            I have forgotten this song for a while, somehow it came into my mind recently, but I forgot both the artist and the title, and also the whole lyrics 😂

In the foreground, propped up against the turntable, are two album covers from the "Easy Star All-Stars."

                                                TRANS AM
                                                Surrender To The Night
                                                1997 U.S. pressing

                                                Another entry into the “Amazing Albums From 1997” category from last week.

                                                Trans Am were always my favorite band on Thrill Jockey. I loved ALL that stuff, but Trans Am were different.

                                                They were a perfect blend of pummeling, nasty-ass rock and electronic; sometimes in the same song.
                                                However, my favorite thing about Trans Am lies inside the personnel.

                                                Sebastian Thomson is one of my favorite drummers EVER. On those pummelers, he feels like he’s going to blow my speakers out. He sounds so LIVE, and in the Trans Am fold, he’s the perfect drummer. He’s the world’s hardest hitting drum machine: always perfectly in time, and utterly explosive.

                                                STTN has my favorite TA song on it in “Motr”; a cinematic sounding epic, with slowly building melodic guitars.

                                                I just know this is going to send me down a Trans Am re-visitation run.

This was the sound of school discos in my mid-teens not least due to the lyrics about the fumbling on the dance floor; so, today a particularly nostalgic one for me

                                                                            Some were innocuous like Fall Out Boy's "thnks fr th mmrs" (pronounced Thanks for the Memories). Some were confusing like Eiffel 65's "Blue."

                                                                            That...uhm...was a choice.

                                                                                                        THIS was the only one they had, and man did I get lucky, because it’s really good.

                                                                                                        It’s a little different than The Czars, but in a very cool way.

                                                                                                        Gonna have to spend this week listening to some more of Grant’s solo work somehow, because I really like this.

I'd long assumed it should be the other way around.

                                                                                                                          I'm slow, but I do get there eventually.

                                                                                                                          For anybody who finds it as counterintuitive as I did: the idea is to get the main part of your playing to a relatively consistent level including the transients, and then level out all the transients in one pass.

                                                                                                                          Edited to add better explanation: as your playing varies in level, so do your transients. It's difficult to build a compressor that will figure out what the threshold should have been, for each note.
                                                                                                                          A slower compressor ignores the transients and brings the rest of the signal to a more consistent level, and the transients come along for the ride. Now it's much easier to level them out.

                                                                                                                          In hindsight, this is so obvious as to be physically painful, but welcome to my life.

As if my last few weren’t dark enough. Baritone guitar rhythm track (L) and baritone guitar through mellotron EHX MEL9 pedal on cello setting (R). My baritone tuning was A,D,A,D,F#,B. Did a test vocal track tonight with a hand held SM58. Jeez they’re warm mics compared with my condenser mic. Song’s about my experience as a teen pulling on the green chain in northern BC.

                                                                                                                                                    So, the question I put forward in today's silly poll is:

                                                                                                                                                    If your favorite musician, filmmaker, dev, author - whatever - disappeared entirely from public memory and record, would you release their catalog (presume you're technically able) as your own?

                                                                                                                                                          On Cocteau Twins’ Simon Raymonde’s Bella Union label, Raymonde produced the band’s first two albums for the label.

                                                                                                                                                          Kind of a subdued and aching folk music? Really well-written songs that could have come from any time, particularly the 60s or 70s, depending on whatever production approach you chose.

                                                                                                                                                          John Grant is an excellent songwriter, and this best of compilation is an excellent set of songs for a blustery Fall day.

                                                                                                                                                          Now, I need to listen to John Grant’s solo albums, which there are several, also on the Bella Union label. I really like his songwriting approach, and he’s got a very comforting voice.

And the closing refrain of the album being a condensed version of the same song - bringing the album back full circle is just top tier.

It was such a killer year for music. Grunge was dead, but rock was doing just fine; between OK Computer, Urban Hymns, Time Out Of Mind, Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space, and Dig Me Out just to name a few.

                                                                                                                                                                  Moon Safari was the soundtrack to many a night of chemical-fueled ribaldry that year. I was 20 years old, partying hard, playing and going to tons of shows.
                                                                                                                                                                  My life was the physical embodiment of “Sexy Boy”.

                                                                                                                                                                  It’s impossible for me to hear Moon Safari now and not have some toxic flashback to that time; when I was running through brick walls and looking really good while doing it.

It’s a good question. Unfortunately, he followed it up with the notion that he’s 70 and still writing good material. I love Seinfeld, but he’s mistaken. His act is old. He just doesn’t know it yet.

There's bands that give away music, but I never download directly without paying. It feels weird saying "Your music isn't worth anything". The ones I'm not ready to pay for yet, I rip with yt-dlp. A 128k mp3 is the penance for not coming up with money :^D
