vampire state midi download remix action

DO IT
your interpretation of the TEAM17 classic "vampire state" (also previously reworked by the band with Django Gonzalez live at Beautyfest, see the video in older post)! We reconstructed the melodies and structure of the original version from the 2004 album as a midi track file. Now you download the file and change it however, BUT follow these rules:

-the first drum track is only for orientation, you're allowed to delete it
-don't delete the other tracks
-don't move or edit the clips
-maybe don't edit the tempo. but i'm not sure about this one. maybe try it

What you need:
Ableton Live

What you do:
-load the project file: link
-rock / pop
-send it to us: look (at) team17.de !

man it's gonna be great!

Django Gonzalez Release-Orgy

Good News: After three years of recording Songs, Snippets and simple Ideas and working on them(more or less), Django Gonzalez is now going to release all that stuff(well, most of it) on Ramin Ton!!!
But he will not come up with one Album (as some people who know him maybe thought), but with two EPs and one Single.
The decision to divide the whole recording-material of those three years into three unique Releases came to him during the last three days, he says.
It is because he realized(after listening to all that stuff again)that there were some kind of heavy connections between several songs and tracks, so it was kind of easy to compile them that way.
The two EPs and the Single will be released one after another in each very short periods.
The Releases are all done, named, all tracks are listed, the covers are made, the work is finished.
Be prepared for 3 completely different releases, which mark a personal era of three years of work, constant doubts, reflections, paranoia, work, revolution, lethargy, experiments, journeys, work, selfhatred and selflove, bla bla bla...

The Releases:

- The Mamachine EP (7-Track EP)
- Annaxo EP (4-Track EP)
- The Chronicles Of Dietiér Zohermes (2-Track Single)



A little Beforetaste(Vorgeschmack)...

Cheers.

Brothers & Sisters

A new band. This post is kind of illegal. I will give you the first song of his soon to be released EP "Growing" this morning. He doesn't know about it. I think he will be okay, bacause he is a person that has no problems giving away greats without getting something bigger back.
I just talked to him about what he is planning for this early new year and he told me about the EP he is recording right now and he sent me this track that will be on it. He says something about deserts and nomads. About giving up the most. How then little things will become bigger, how growing works. He said something about rudimentary.
I haven't met him for a while now, so I can't tell you how soon we will have the recording in our hands. But he says early this year.

The song I'm posting is his and Pjtr Kaufmann singing. They do write songs together. I don't know, but he told me tonight that they too are planning something for this year. I know they have written some songs together, because I heard them (very loud) and I know they have made a record that they never wanted to release. Maybe they have reworked it and that's what they meant, but I don't know. And I don't know what's the thing with them, they both are totally mysterious! I never know what they are up to and I don't understand ther motifs most of the time either! And they do not ever tell you a story in the way you would like to hear it, but then can catch you with a word or a phrase or sound that you wouldn't have expected but certainly have to fall in love with. I don't know! What am I talking? Lost in my sweet saliva. asslickers are the worst. Easiest entry is the ass thats why there are so many. It may be the dirtiest, but its the thing that is widest open. Ass is mans social harbour. There man connects.
How dirty 4:30 in the morning can get. ("AND LONELY!" the other I yells and tastes the sweet saliva of teeth that haven't been brushed for four moons.)(the idea is: how to put yourself in your asshole. How does it work and if it worked wouldn't it be the most graceful thing?)

Brothers & Sisters with Pjtr Kaufmann "I will walk for my feet"
this song was released on RTN014 "Golden Fire Comp #1"

BEST BANDS and WHY THAT????? of 2008

best album 2008 is def3nitely the d0ldrums by ariel pink. though it was rel3ased in 2006 it 1s my album 2k8.
Because of its strength and int3nsity, of its col0rs, its night, 1ts darkness, of its artyness, 1ts queeryn3ss, l0on1ness, manicn3ss, dryness, its dim3nsi0ns, sw33tn3ss, un1queness, 3ch0es, big c1ties athm0sph3re, ligths, d1rt, au10nticity, bubblyn3ss, overm0dulat1on, 1mpulsivness, silmpl1city, its human3ness, labyr1nth, steamyn3ss, psych0delicy, bord0m, flow3rs, patience, fashi0ns, complicat0ns, twil1gth, t0ys, insp1recy, powerplants, melanch0ly, stud1pness, cl0sen3ss and ko1ncidances. this 1s what I r3alized last year.
It to0k a long time for me to love ari3l pinks musik. I already got in c0ntact w1th his music in 2005 after I talk3d to him at a concert. I liked some songs but it didnt mean much to me. then in the last year I discovered that the doldrums is the most concentrated ariel pink.
unrealistic and peculiar. and so why should there be another post? everythigs said. this is the best album, thats it. yes wave pictures are nice, too.

BEST BANDS and WHY THAT????? of 2008

This is the ONE AND ONLY post of never ending last year nostalgia: What band was THE band of 2008 and WHY TAHT???. The topic says it all and bores everyone NOT INTO IT to death. Please comment as much and as boring and as stupid as possible(please be REALLY stupid)(and please be as INSULTING as you can! This is the ONE AND ONLY blog filled with an unstoppable love for selfhatred!)(I mean, what to love if not yourself? That would be: YOUR SELFHATRED!!!)(I mean, please kill me now, because the bracket rate is up at 84 and that means I am close to death by selfrelection). And if you aren't stupid. Please do as if you were. PLEASE! (please?)

The BAND:
I want to start as abusive as a moderator can be with the magicaly uncool group of british boredom in sheets "THE WAVE PICTURES". And as abusive as I am I used my rights to bore you even more with a foto of the band (up).
The WHY???:
They obviously like Herman Düne, which, as I heard is considered a crime in 14 of 27 EU-Nations. (I don't know it for the Arabian-League, but someone told me, could be worse). With that information given you might ask yourself, how can this blog guy who writes as if anyone would read or even be interested in this whole post, get the band out of the BAND OF 2008 Minus region up into the BAND OF 2008 Plus region?
I heard them somewhere in early 2008 at a Jeffrey Lewis concert. It was the song "Long Island" (I've found two versions of the song by searching hypemachine, listen to that one that has the worse sound, it has the better feeling) in which he sings "I am the real Slim Shady" that made me fall for them (ahhhhhh, sweet)(yeah thank you...). I think it is the best line in a song 2008 too! YES YES YES. The song is a total masterwork. That's it really. And the band doesn't look in any way as they sound. They sound like Long Island, as if they have never been cool enough for Downtown Manhattan, or such stuff. But coming from the UK. And after their sound, they look like as if they aren't cool enough to be anything, and that is what I DESERVE LIKE CREAM! That's it.
