Service Station" Subject: (klf) MU in the USA KLF LIST MEMBERS: I am packing up the Lost Sounds of Mu Vol. 2, the long sleeved tee-shirts, and any other older pieces you have ordered this weekend to be mailed the week of Feb. 9th. The White Room OST had a snare coming back, as it was discovered to be The KLF on the discs. I guess the artwork and the songs were just too close to the original album for the censors and spotters at customs. There must be some hipsters who went astray and now work for the oppressors... I will be repressing the disc in the states this month and I will ship it out to you when completed in March. Those of you who ordered LSOM2 will be getting DOUBLE the discs you ordered to compensate somewhat for the delay. Also, if you ordered only TWROST, you will get a copy of LSOM2 as well. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Thanks to the sound technicians who stitched it all together and made it possible in the first place. Special thanks to the graphic master who designed the cover of this disc. It looks totally amazing! Thanks again to all on the list for sticking by through the last year. Vol. 3 and future projects will be pressed and available before they are offered for sale. What a concept! ;^) audio, Marshall p.s.

Sounds like a good idea to me. Is the MT phone number a pre-recorded message? I assume no-one would look at an e-mail petition, so we'd have to send a list between all the KLF-listers for each to sign, which would take a while, but I'm sure everyone could get a few friends to sign it before sending it to the next list member.

Yep, Must agree here, his video is very much improved from the ol' versions knocking around. It's even got the White Room movie on the end - not very good quality, but after a few drinks it looks a bit better. After a few more you start to understand it and the way thescript fits in around the film - okay, so you have to be verging on the unconscious, but still, it's (TWR) the holy grail in the KLF world methinks. errrmmm...so, where does this all leave the now pathetic looking KAUSE project ? I'm still working out what to do about that one. The aim of the KAUSE was to produce a better quality bootleg with all the stuff Mike had on his comp and maybe more. Well, since the projects inception over a year ago, we've got together most of the source videos (which have been mailed across the world). We've also got one or two 2K items (which have been covered on the video David's kicking out) and the White Room Movie (again not very good quality). The final decision still hasn't been made on this one yet, but I thought I'd let you all know about this, in case you were wondering. l8rs neil MU-VING PICTURES (*almost*) PRESENTED :- "THE KAUSE, 1987 - 1997" ps - Buy Mikes video. it's very good. pps - David, please post up details on the 2K video again to the list please - thanks ! # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info klf" in the message. # Postings must go to klf@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # KLF discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?klf ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 11 Feb 1998 10:16:53 +0100 From: "Vega" Subject: Re: (klf) MU in the USA - -----Original Message----- From: 24 Hr.

Then, because they keep telling the NME that thy're wild anarchists they have to live up to it so... ... they pour water on someone. Oh, yes, he's a politician, that's right. gee, I'm impressed. Society has been rocked to its very core. The KLF never signed to a major label. They produced chart-worthy tripe occasionally, but to ridicule the business and to make enough money to produce their real masterpieces. They set fire to things, they shot at people, they killed animals and they upstaged major art events, didn't just make a bit of noise while drinking the free champagne. But most of all, they didn't keep shouting "Hey, excuse me, sorry for interrupting, but we're bloody anarchists! sorry if that's a bit rude" And as for Jarvis Cocksplat, anyone who could write "This house is condemned" in 1987 (quality house music when the KLF where still writing hip-hop) and then switch to writing "Disco2000" and "Help the Aged" deserves an eternity of listening to "tubthumping" > The KLF were a respectable band, please don't insult them again. > > Thankyou. > > D No, thank YOU, Damon You have my sympathy for having to listen to Chumbawannabee for all those years. jtm # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info klf" in the message. # Postings must go to klf@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # KLF discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?klf ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 11 Feb 1998 11:52:17 -0600 (CST) From: Jeremy Brezovan Subject: (klf) Re: (jamm) Re: X$X--numbers On Wed, 11 Feb 1998, Andy Robinson wrote: > I've been discussing the X$X site with Robin Houston, who, with the > benefit of clever perl scripting, has spotted that: > > http://members.xoom.com/xsx > > has changed again, Bricks 17, 23, 25, 42, 46, 99, 223, 230, 303 and 323 > all say "There is no information anywhere. yet". > > Why these numbers? - lots of KLFish ones, but not all. good question--i thought it might be one of those numerology things, but from what i could tell (using http://www.crl.com/~tzimon/Magidict/magdic15.html as a reference) only a few of these have any "magickal" meaning. :) i recognize 303 as being a probable reference to the roland tb-303, and maybe 323 refers to the mazda :D ...but beyond that, *shrug* - -j # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info klf" in the message. # Postings must go to klf@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # KLF discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?klf ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 11 Feb 1998 18:13:25 +0000 (GMT) From: jon thaan mmm Subject: (klf) Re: X$X--numbers On Wed, 11 Feb 1998, Jeremy Brezovan wrote: > On Wed, 11 Feb 1998, Andy Robinson wrote: > > > I've been discussing the X$X site with Robin Houston, who, with the > > benefit of clever perl scripting, has spotted that: > > > > http://members.xoom.com/xsx > > > > has changed again, Bricks 17, 23, 25, 42, 46, 99, 223, 230, 303 and 323 > > all say "There is no information anywhere. yet". > > > > Why these numbers? - lots of KLFish ones, but not all. > > good question--i thought it might be one of those numerology things, but > from what i could tell (using > http://www.crl.com/~tzimon/Magidict/magdic15.html as a reference) only a > few of these have any "magickal" meaning. :) i recognize 303 as being a > probable reference to the roland tb-303, and maybe 323 refers to the > mazda :D ...but beyond that, *shrug* > > -j 17 and 23 are both very significant 25 is five squared, 5 being even more powerful than 23 (2+3=5) 42 is the answer to the ultimate question 46 is twice 23 99 as in "make mine a...", a bit of flake? 223 has 23 in it? 230 has 23 in it? 303 is the road to glastonbury as well as the roland.

A long, long time ago (11 Feb 98 13:46), Damon (Damon Evans ) spoke these untruths > "Alot of there new songs sound like KLF (Amnesia/Tubthumper)" > > Don't insult the KLF like that !!!! Oh dear. We could start arguing a bit about this one. ...I did spot a review of Chumbawamba live, printed in Melody Maker recently, which said that "not since the KLF or some Carter USM songs has a band managed to successfully combine rebellion and chart-playability in one single", and I have to say, I agree. Chumbawamba have my support, and while I'm not a buy-everything fan, I admire the fact that they haven't lost all of their political sensibilities. OK so they're not as self-referential as the KLF were- most of what the KLF did was write songs about being the KLF- but is that a bad thing? As I have said on many a philosophical yet drunken night, just because Chumbawamba wrote a song about being pissed doesn't mean that they've completely sold out. So there. Power to 'em.

Not difficult to have heard of them, as they had a number one hit (played continually for months).

Actually, I believe Falco did do a track of this title, I know Lazlo's a bit of a Falco fan on the side, so he'll be able to confirm that.

Falco made his records before The Manual. That's true. He certainly didn't have any UK hits after the date of The Manual. However, sad to hear that he has died, if its true.

Maybe, because the actual title was "Staship (Raumschiff) Edelweiss". I think there was also a track called "Beam me up" on the album, but I'm not sure. However, "Starship" wasn't their only hit. Long before it they were chart toppers in Germany with "Bring me Edelweiss" - the track inspired by The Manual. - --- jv # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info klf" in the message. # Postings must go to klf@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # KLF discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?klf ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 12 Feb 1998 13:38:04 +0100 From: "Lars Nellemann" Subject: Re: (klf) Falco ? > > beam to the stars > beam me up to mars > beam me up to see starship Edelwiess > > The DJ playing it said it was Beam Me Up by Edelwiess but most stores > say they have never heard of it! Anyone help me out here? The DJ was wrong It's Starship (Raumshiff) Edelweiss taken from the album "Wonderful world of Edelweiss" I'm playing it rigth now - thank you for remember me of this gem ;-) Now Edelweiss real big hit was "Bring me Edelweiss" and that could very well have been done by KLF/JAMs it has lots of ABBA samples (From SOS) and samples from "That's the way we like it" and even yodling - check it out.

It's hard to translate, really, since the literal meaning of the word "fuck" can't be used as a curse in Swedish. "Fuck" (as a verb) translates to "knulla", but if you say "knulla millenniet" it will mean something like "have sexual intercourse with the millennium" and that is probably not what the KLF meant. "Fuck" as an insult, like "fuck off" och "fuck you" would probably be said "dra aat helvete" (aa is an a with ring) wich literally means "go to hell" in English. "Fuck something" (e.g. the millennium) would probably be said "skit i millenniet" or "ner med millenniet" or something like that, but the exact wording is very context-dependent. anders - ------------------------------ http://www.algonet.se/~anders/ # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info klf" in the message. # Postings must go to klf@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # KLF discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?klf ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 12 Feb 1998 15:50:19 +0100 From: anders.hultman@unisource.se (Anders Hultman) Subject: Re: (klf) Urgent to all Swedes... >> I urgently need to know the Swedish for "Fuck the Millennium". > >According to a swede on IRC: > >aartusenskiftet suger (The millennium sucks) To say that someting "suger" (sucks) may be accepted by some teenagers, but is not normal Swedish language. It's a very rough direct translation of the English idiom. >till helvete med aartusenskiftet (to hell with the millennium) That one works, though. But it should rather be "Aat helvete med aartusenskiftet" (aa still is an a with ring). Maybe "tusenaarsskiftet" is better than "aartusensskiftet" but both will do. >(this means the actual change from one millenium to the next, not the >actual millennium...) # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info klf" in the message. # Postings must go to klf@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # KLF discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?klf ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 12 Feb 1998 16:06:52 +0000 (GMT) From: Juice Subject: (klf) Re: Eidelwiss > > Wow someone else who has heard of Edelwiess.
