Thanks! It would have been around 16 years had they not banned my profile for no reason, hah.

Oh wow! How did you meet him? I met him too recently, funnily enough -- my boyfriend was assistant director on a film that Stephen Thrower made the soundtrack to, so we attended the record launch party in London. I had a conversation with both and they signed my Cyclobe LP. Thrower even got him to sign Thrower's own copy of the LP in return, which was surreal. I told Thrower that I was determined to see Cyclobe live, and he said, 'well, we don't play live very often', haha. I can't wait for new album, will be great.

Oh wow, that is cool! You mean 'Trouser Bar'? That's the film I was talking about, my boyfriend worked on that film; I've only heard the soundtrack when watching the film, but Serden bought the limited-to-100 version with the corduroy trousers and hankie (which is hilarious!), so I'll listen to that at some point. I've yet to hear UnicaZürn, but it's great that they named a project after Unica Zürn the writer/surrealist, 'cos she was mint.

Apparently none of the "listeners I know" have any "Wild Man Fischer" scrobbles... Say it ain't so Chris! "An Evening With Wild Man Fischer" is like Daniel Johnston trying to do "Trout Mask Replica". Inevitably it pales by comparison to Trout Mask, but then again what doesn't?

I have listened to Wild Man Fischer! Apparently not since November 2010, though. It never especially resonated with me, but anything with a Zappa connection I give a whirl. I will listen to him again soon.

I have no idea, Fergal! He had a lot of scrobbles, I know that much. Rumour has it that nancykitten now works in Mexico looking after homeless and disturbed children, while hiding his identity by wearing a colourful lucha libre mask.

Twin Peaks: The Return is such a treat. After such a long time since Inland Empire, I had no idea what to expect, but we're in really good hands. It is also a sad reminder that the original run could've been so elevated were it not for network pressure. The network tried to screw with Lynch this time around too! People should know better by now.

It's fantastic, it exceeded all of my expectations. Did you see the most recent episode? That was the most avant-garde hour of television ever made.

Absolutely, legacy stuff. I'm so cynical about reboots and revivals, I think I have very good reason to be. I was worried about this project. I should've been much more trusting after Lynch came back on board. This latest episode especially is a much needed adrenaline shot for television. Besides the excitement of feeling plugged in to a cultural phenomenon (obviously I missed that with the original run), you have Frost and Lynch once again serving as pioneers, saying "look what viewers will embrace if you give them the chance and guide them well". There's hype about this episode all over the internet - they're as fresh and relevant as ever. It's tempting to think this bodes well for the future of American television but, with the industry in this tense transitional phase, nothing is for sure.

I was just looking at a Dekalog write-up this morning! It's been on my watchlist for ages. I must get around to it. Berlin Alexanderplatz was an experience beyond words. What I would give to see that in the cinema! But yes, I think that's a good comparison. I want to add Riget/Kingdom to the list but it never did quite reach the same heights, did it? Still, it was entertaining enough. Maybe if von Trier did another TV series today, it could be his magnum opus.

I have never watched Berlin Alexanderplatz -- I always wanted to see all of his films before I watched it, but it's now been 15 years or something that I've been fan, and I still haven't seen all of his films. I don't really like von Trier, so I have no idea there.

I'm starting to realise with Fassbinder, as with Bergman, that I'm not a completist after all. They each have a few films I really struggled with, and then there are several for each that I can't seem to bring myself around to watching, although they're readily available. Oddly, I don't feel quite so intimidated or hesitant with my remaining von Triers - even though I consider him the weakest of the three. I recently saw Europa and thought it was just awful... but my love for Dogville and Melancholia keeps me hopeful. Medea will be next - I want to compare and contrast with the Pasolini version with Maria Callas.

Martha is fantastic! It's incredibly disturbing. I have a lot of favourites when it comes to Fassbinder, but I think my top two would be The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant and The Marriage of Maria Braun. Veronika Voss is wonderful too.

Yes, I was into Sparks a long time ago, around a decade ago when they released Hello Young Lovers and Exotic Creatures of the Deep, and I listened to their classic albums too. I've never really been a massive fan, though -- it's never truly clicked. I will try again. Todd Rundgren is so great, there's definitely a big influence there on Sparks. If you're going to try to get into Todd, the best place for you to start is A Wizard, a True Star! It's very Zappa-esque.

Me too, I'd love to see Lord Julian play all the time. It's great that he's touring a lot more these days; hopefully he will start doing full band live gigs again. When I saw him in Edinburgh last time the crowd was full of totally drunk people, and I wasn't drinking which made me notice it all the more, it was an odd crowd. Some girls were shouting out, "Julian, there's a problem here!" because security were telling them not to stand at a certain area (probably a fire hazard thing or something) and they weren't having it. Julian told them there's nothing he could do about it and to take personal responsibility, haha. Then they started arguing with people in the crowd about it, people telling them to shut up. Also someone kept shouting, "GET A HAIRCUT" at Julian -- why would you pay to see a performer then shout insults at him?

It's tragic that Safe as Milk did not happen because it could have been a great replacement for ATP. I'm guessing that the holiday camp format music festival era is now dead. I was pretty gutted about it, but then I used the money instead to book trips in London and Amsterdam before Primavera Sound, so that cheered me up.

I've never been to a Field Day before. Is it a good event? I would have gone for Aphex for sure, but he's playing at Primavera Sound in Barcelona which I'm going to (and mostly going just for him!). Actually, I think I will be in Barcelona when Field Day is on.

Wow! The remastered Plastic Ono Band by Yoko Ono sounds horrible -- my ears are bleeding. Why is 'remaster' synonymous with 'compression' these days? Not everyone is listening to these tracks on an iPod.

@GaaraGOinMusic1 (Sorry, I deleted your shout by accident!): It would come down to what you've listened to I guess. You seem to have a pretty diverse taste in music, so I think you would get into it. Beefheart has one really difficult album in Trout Mask Replica which most do not enjoy on one or two listens, but something like Safe as Milk sounds pretty ordinary by today's standards (it didn't at the time, however). The Residents make a kind of avant-alternative pop, and often their music is more weird because of the themes rather than the actual sound. I would say, 'yes' to the weirdness (a major part of the appeal for me) but 'no' to the hard to listen. It's not difficult to listen to in the way that noise is, for example, since you have melodies and choruses and other conventional things going on.

Bizarrely, since you mention cello, I was just listening to cello and vilolin Bach suites earlier, so I'd be in the mood for it.

I did delete a lot of my social media accounts about 6 months ago. I kept the ones with a specific focus like music, books or film. It was the right choice for me. Letterboxd was created by and is run out of Auckland, so I've been on it since the very beginning. I regularly lose myself for hours in it.

The security in New York is a bit OTT, probably because of 9/11. I first went in 2004, though, so it wasn't too long after that.

Scott Walker should learn to sing! I once met someone who said he was a Sunn 0))) fan except for 'My Wall', because he hated Julian Cope's vocals. I wanted to uppercut him.
