Kayo Dot on 88.1 WMBR tonight

[Firedwarf]

Yeah, MP3s would be awesome. I was fighting sleep to hear this but I ended up passing out at round 8:45. So close!

 

[xfer]

excellent! mindspell, i'm going to AIM you just to hear the songs on the expectation it may take quite some time for Kayo and the Dots to get their mp3s on the ball.

 

[mindspell]

In the meantime you can donwload it at http://www.mindspell.org in the mp3 section

 

[xfer]

ahahaha he's making jokes about them not being able to fit!!

 

[lizard]

thanks mindspell!

 

[xfer]

the "dead air" between the opening notes of the Antique is a radio no-no. you ought to have filled it with drum-machine beatz or soprano-sax noodling.

 

[mindspell]

The pleasure is all mine

 

[mindspell]

until you bastards bust my bandwidth limit

 

[xfer]

woops

 

[Firedwarf]

Yeah, thanks Mindspell!

 

[xfer]

interesting effects on the voice at the end of the Antique--a lot more distorted than usual! is that how you guys are going to do it from now on?

 

[minxnim]

can someone AIM this to me tonight/something?

 

[mindspell]

Sure, try to catch me tonight and I'll send it to you.

there are some fairly painful moments in wayfarer but overall i thought it was dece.

 

[Astral Poetry]

I thought it sounded really good overall. Too bad you all didn't get a longer interview.

 

[xfer]

okay, i just finished listening to it (had to pause a bunch due to work stuff). neat! i want to hear the rest of the interview.

one thing i really haven't heard live yet is a "golden example" of the big wayfarer climax when toby's like "WAAAYYYYY farrerr up ONNNN thy JOURNEYYY" etc. when i saw KD do it (once) live, toby kind of swayed away from the mike for that part, and i think maybe something similar happened on this radio show (although he seemed to lean in and catch up)?

overall i thought it was really cool. i especially liked noticing stuff i didn't notice during live shows because of different emphasis--violins and greg's solos during Antique, for example, were much more to the forefront than they are when you're all meshing on stage in a club. and i appreciate how forbes seems to do different things with his horn parts each time i hear you guys.

In the grand tradition of radio, the DJ should have been talking obnoxiously over the first minute or so of the song anyway.

 

[FuSoYa]

Seriously the first two came out good enough to show up on a live album or something. Wayfarer just sounds kind of rehearsal-ish.

 

[xfer]

i would say you guys should definitely put out a live album called KAYO DOT: LIVE FROM THE AMORY except you might get sued by John Cage.

 

[mindspell]

Pro-Tools and some overdubbing should take care of that. Kayo Dot live EP coming up.

Even better: Kayo Dot 2 song flexi, I'll finance it
