A LA KART vol. 2 (old thread, remembering a friend)

[polyslax]

updated the Myspace for this project (both ALK one and two)
A La Kart 1 and 2 Myspace

Still adding tracks from A La Kart 2 so people can hear more of it.

add us, we're apparently a very friendless bunch. But it's about quality, not quantity.

Thanks Jazzy! Friendless...

I should think about joining myspace I s'pose... some day...

Don't!!! Resist the temptation! Those girls don't really want to be your friend, they just think of you as ad-space!

Bump

'cause I'm listening to it right now and finding it fantastic!

[Jazzyspoon]

Thanks, Decaumodo. I think we have sold maybe XX copies in 4 months, thanks for being one of them.

I don't usually talk business in front of company but I will say that I have neglected to keep you up to date on the numbers (hint: we don't have fewer sales than the last time I reposted ). I evangelized around my workplace and hocked my wares (with an "s" not a "z") to my family so we have had a few more sales since then.

Peace.

Listening again today. It's been a little like a mini black hole for my attention. The strength of the musical grip is at least equal to some of my favorite groups, which for some reason all begin with B's: BoC, British Sea Power, Boris... They all seem to have the power to elevate; to drive a sort of deep reflection that raises awareness or the ability to sense. Played especially loud in an irregular 2.2 configuration, the sound-waves rather than disingenuously comfort, jolt and then slowly relax. There is so much detail and subtlety. It has the paradoxical effect of pulling and pushing the metaphysical and natural towards and away from each other simultaneously. Sorry if this sounds like nineteenth century continental philosophy but it has evoked some rather strange feelings. I hope you guys are working on volume 3.

Thanks for the music.

thanks GJ! no, it doesn't sound like nineteenth century continental philosophy. it sounds like you've really taken the time to grok the album...which we really appreciate...and you're description is very flattering to us all! thanks so much for that.

and yep, Vol. 3 is in the works

[Jazzyspoon]

Thanks for really listening through it and commenting back (and the bump back from the dead), GJ!

ALK 3 is a brewin...

[Jazzyspoon]

Hey, we made it past the 10000 views mark. Only 20 more thousand to go to catch up to drumity's post.

[blortblort]

thanks very much for the in depth listening that you've done, GJ!
(...expect more and perhaps even stranger feelings )

[Jazzyspoon]

random bump. If anyone buys or has bought this CD, I love you.
A La Kart 3 is imminent and currently includes an even bigger cast of fftunky freaks. Hopefully finished for the fall 2009.
Stay tuned.

Fall will be awesome.

P.S. my birthday is also in Fall.
