Yeah, Standeg, other part of Haujobb. /insert monkey sounds/

Are you a big Haujobb fan? I'm a pretty big Standeg fan, but all the voice-overs/samples and stuff, they really turn me off. Typically I can't listen to a track that has a voice over sample, from a movie, or whatever. I just can't stand it. Haujobb has an awful lot of these. I'll relisten to the G&W record and get back to you with citations. Part of it I think is the kind of impersonal type of speech used, it's descriptively accurate, but emotionally inappropriate, like being seduced by a medical student using the jargon of her profession. Well I guess the thing is that Ned sounds like he's from Brixton, UK, but he ain't been dere. Bothers some, but I've gotten over it. Agreed, new Kern. There's a new track on Dependence 2011, Sub-Librarian, but my first impression was unsatisfying. Funker Vogt, so funny. :^)

Sorry to be such a shoutbox slut, but, "Frankfest," "Frankapallooza," triple-header with SB, EoD and G&W ;^).

PPPS, how have you been able to deal with Stromkern's affected accent? Initially it was a pretty heavy turn-off for me, and I think it remains that way for others. But you know, now I just don't care. Stromkern's greatest tracks are unique and they really rock and so I just try not to think about it. Whatchatink?

Frank touring with all his side-projects, eh? Then he really WOULD be a scary tycoon wouldn't he? As for G&W, yeah, there are a number of tracks on that record I really like, but for a few tracks the lyrics just really don't work for me, I'll have to revisit and document them. They're just crass and pedestrian. I'm thinking it's an error in customary usage and the language barrier, but they just really turn me off. Tracks like the Hitman mixes, the Nightshift mixes and others though are classic, keeper Frank. :^) PS, I can't handle when Frank gets explicit, like on EoD's Elegance, "full-frontal" etc. I can't listen to that track because of that. Also the Iris mix of Minerve's In Love with an Open End, "Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah." I'm sorry but Frank's overly-explicit breathy voice-overs just ruin a track for me. I'd hate to imagine what they do for you. ;^)

No, I missed him too. I'm not a big clubber myself, but they were really just a few cities away from me. It was painful to see them come and go, so close. Oh well. :^) Who knows. Frank seems to have fun coming to America, consider the live album from San Francisco. I'm sure he'll be back again. Yeah, it's fun all Frank's guest appearances. Although it's not uncommonly inventive, I like his duet cover with the Azoic for the 80s one hit wonder of "Obsession." Seems like a lot of these bands could be saying to Frank, "You're my obsession." ;^)

:^) buddie-buddie. Yeah, Frank just does so many guest appearances with other bands and puts 'em on record, it just seemed like a good way to keep track of him. So, by these appearances and just cuz, everybody DOES love Frank. I know I do. :^) Have you ever seen him live?
