Transit Kings

Thanks to Lazy@The Chill Out I’ve had the chance to listen to “Early Bath” by the Transit Kings.  

For those of you unfamiliar with the Transit Kings let me give you a brief history.  They are an electronic music group based of the U.K. Started by Alex Paterson (The Orb), Jimmy Cauty (The KLF), Guy Pratt (session player for a large number of bands) and Dom Beken (High Frequency Bandwidth).

The music tends to be more upbeat than Orb/KLF efforts but manages to retain a fair amount of “atmosphere” mainly due to the samples used on the recordings.  

Early Bath is a limited edition compilation release of demos, remixes and one live recording.  A must for any fan of the group but seeing only 500 copies exist, obtaining a copy may be rather difficult.  If one can track down the release, I strongly urge you to pick it up as the musical genius that blends ambient/jazz/dance is in full force.

Health Update

I’m feeling a hell of a lot better, thanks for the good wishes from all.  Still surprised at how quickly my condition changes from one moment to the next, but one cannot compare the way I felt yesterday to the way I do now.

Worlds apart!

That’s it for now.
