Summary: What are these songs?

There have some recent TV commercials with (IMHO - love those acronyms) some
hoppin' tunes.  One is the most recent L'oreal Studio line of hair products -
a sorta garage-techno-acid-house thang.  Another is a recent Bubblicious
bubble gum ad with claymation dancers in it, sporting a tribal-techno-type
tune.  Are these actual music or just diddies thought up be the ad agency?
Any info would be appreciated.

And, for all those of you who are just dying to hit the 'followup' button 
because you feel the obsessive-compulsive need to analyze the exact definition
of tribal/garage/techno/acid/monkeybump/house, just CALM DOWN and go have a
beer because it doesn't matter.

Well all u party people out there i think its time u got to know about how
bad the rave scene in the uk is.At the last big dance (holocaust),people were
getting stabbed for being ravers,they were gettin pulled from there cars and
there sterios taken from them...and most of the bouncers were slightly bent.
They started taking peoples tickets from them then re-selling them....some
of them started taking vitamin e's from the sweet machines and started sellin
them for loads of money..great kickin music though.


if anyone wants any tapes etc...give iz a BUZZ.

chris...aka tripper.

I'm back.  News took a nosedive here early this week and guess who had to fix
it?  Anyway, Utah Saints and Shamen visited our little burg on Wednesday and
put on a surprisingly good show.

Utah Saints put a lot of energy into it.  It was apparent they were playing
live, even though a lot of it was samples and sequences.  Doctor D gave out
half the drum kit to the audience in the middle of the show and we had to wait
for them to setup another one.

Expecting to be bored out of my skull again by Shamen, I made a fool out of
myself telling everyone that Utah Saints was going to be the best part of the
evening.  Surprise, surprise, even though I still think the new stuff is crud,
they played some great versions of En-Tact tracks.  Including the COOL mix of
Hyperreal.  I can't remember the mix name, but it has those great bass
explosions.  I went fking nuts when I heard it begin to come over the
speakers.

Met everyone in Shamen and half of the Utah Saints.  Got the Shamen to sign
all my CD's as well as Utah Saints.  A friend was talking to Mr. C when he
mentioned the word "rave".  C said, "Rave is a DIRTY word in England (which
has been apparent here recently), what is up now is HOUSE."  Mr. C's DJ set
still consisted of a large majority of trance, not a piano riff to be heard,
but whatever.  He said he throws undergrounds for around 700 people, any
bigger and he doesn't like it.  Same friend then mentioned "ambient" and C
gave the definition, "Ambient is WITHOUT a beat."  I'm sure glad we've got the
UK to tell the rest of the world how it is done.  Of course, this whole
conversation took place while C and my friend were smoking some buds that my
friend supplied.  So much for the anti-drug stance.

The only question I asked Colin was, "How do you think the new En-Tact
compares to the old one?"  He said, "I think its fucking great."  He also
pooped large bricks when I had him sign my copy of "Strange Day Dreams".  He
couldn't believe I had it.

But not as large bricks as when I asked Doctor D from the Utah Saints about
Cassandra Complex.  "How did you know that?" "I have my sources", I laughed.
Apparently both of the founding members of Utah Saints were in CC.  I asked
about Rodney Orpheus, and he said he is in New York City right now, "doing
something".  Obviously not using the net anymore.

Colin looked really dumb in the Ebeneezer Goode outfit.  Of course, Colin
looks really dumb, period.

All in all, worth $12.50.  Go see them.
