Elephas Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 My Rihanna - Umbrella Remixes CD is here! The "Seamus Haji & Paul Emanuel Club Remix" sounds really good with the KGSS > HE60. Ella, ella, eh, eh, eh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holland Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Hmm, I don't get the fascination. It sucks. That monotone voice is quite annoying, I think she shows a one octave range. Woo. Stab my eye with a hot poker please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 They made one version 9+ minutes long? Holy shit, I think I'd rather be water-boarded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holland Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Billie Holiday didn't have much more than an octave range. Sorry, I've never heard her performances, so that reference went right over my head. Listening to it again (killing me gently), it's not the lack of range, it's the manufactured feel of the performance, the false repeatable vocal breaks, for instance, the lack of feeling. But, hey, if it works for you, more power to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holland Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Are you sure you're not confusing her obvious female attractions with anything resembling good music? It's the ballet shoes and the "on pointe"....with a trapeze. Hmm, that might work wonders in the bedroom actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holland Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 seriously? Yeah. Sorry. I'm really not into jazz, I find it mostly boring and I can't get beyond that to even listen to vocal performances. It triggers me into a narcoleptic session and I can't define anything in that genre as being great...because I just can't listen to it.

boomana Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Probably that "soft jazz" they used to pipe into my office on a tape loop allll daayy everyyyy daay. It made homicidal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Yup. Basically, you can't hear jazz listening to the radio, on an elevator, or in a coffee shop. Very little of what gets sold as jazz is interesting. But good jazz is so far from boring that you can't really even get there from here. As I mentioned in another thread, some of the experimental jazz has more in common with punk rock than it ever would with kenny g. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holland Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 So, what is jazz? Aside from Billie Holiday. And what's so close about jazz and punk? I listen to some punk, albeit pop punk like Lagwagon. I'm more into death and black metal, which does have a montonic vocal representation. Name me some that's like punk and I'll go buy some today. I'm on vacation with an arm length list of honey-dos, and a really pissy mood because of it. I'd rather go peruse Rasputin now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepak Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 So, what is jazz? Although not strictly classified as jazz get some John Zorn. Pick a random album if you want. But one of my favs is Electric Masada 50th Birthday Celebration Volume 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elephas Posted November 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Yes, I've watched a downloaded Umbrella video, but the video or photos aren't the reason why I'm listening to this song. I don't know the reason. I'm listening now with the KGSS>SR-Omega. I feel so happy and I can't stop wriggling my butt. La la, la de la la, ella, ella, eh eh eh, it's pouring rain...

boomana Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 http://members.tripod.com/vermontreview/Interviews/shipp.htm I read that interview. What's strange is that I seemed to live next door to him in NYC, at least from where he said he lived. Don't remember him, but years could be different, though time frame seems the same.

xand1x Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 WORST SONG EVER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Not the worst song ever, but it basically takes tracks like "Let the Music Play" by Shannon, or perhaps "2 of Hearts" by Suzie Q, and revamps it. Somewhat. Maybe a little bit of New Order thrown in, but not that good. It was okay, I give it a C+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elephas Posted November 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Thank you for the recommendations, I'll go find "Let the Music Play" and "2 of Hearts." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elephas Posted November 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 I found "Two of Hearts (Extended Mix)" by Stacey Q from the disc "Dance Traxx Vol. 2" in my library. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elephas Posted November 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Er, I've also got "Let the Music Play (Full Intention Club Edit)" by Shannon from the disc "Best of No. 1 Hits 2003." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
