So we need to know when the Ximena records were made, and the Ipecac series.

xenophanes is post bedlam, Pridgen thought he was working on new tmv when he recorded it.

Post-Octahedron to be exact. But I’m talking about the records where she sings lead. We don’t know the order of Cizana, Solar, Tycho or Ciencia.

I don't like to discuss personal matters too much, but I'll make an exception here, because Ximena is a public figure herself and was an important part of Omar's creative output. It was revealed that their relationship began at Zero Fest in Guadalajara (2008-04-26). She was featured on many solo projects during their relationship, until the fall 2010 ORLG euro tour was suddenly cancelled due to a "family emergency" (Sep 22nd, only a few days after the Chicago show). I always thought it had something to do with Omar's mother becoming ill. Omar talked about her a lot and recorded Un Corazon De Nadie in November 2010. But it's also the case that after Cizana came out in October, Ximena vanished from future releases and the next recording session that we know of - in January 2011 - was for Octopus Kool Aid, the first one with Teri. So that "family emergency" could have been their break up. We will never know, but it gives us a rough time frame: Spring 2008 - Fall 2010.

 

I'm trying to ask Johann Scheerer about the recording date of Cizana, because it was reportedly done in Hamburg. Could have been the first Clouds Hill project (not counting Omar guesting on the Taka-Takaz tracks). It's weird, because it has a song from the 2009 ORLG tour, but a different line-up. It's a mystery. (I have a suspicion there might be a connection between that session and the filming of El Divino Influjo De Los Secretos, which took place in Hamburg aswell and (originally) featured Ximena)

But isn't that Ximena with Omar in 2011?

[rroseselavy]

You are right. Didn't know that. Edited my post. Thanks.

There was also a tease of a studioo version of one of lp2 antemasque songs

[vacuumo]

hey, this is really cool. how detailed are you trying to get with this?

[SnkZato1 Ph.D.]

I also wonder if there would be any value using the wayback machine on the GSL page to gain some lost info.

Cedric recording with Anywhere

 

That one's easy: Cedric met Christian at Sonny Kay's art show on Feb 11th, 2010. According to the bio, Christian asked Mike Watt to play bass on the album when he guested on his radio show during the album sessions (2 days at Melvin's practice space). The radio show happened on June 6th, 2010, so the Anywhere album was recorded around that date.

 

There was a pic of Juliette Lewis in studio w/ Omar on her Myspace page back in the days. Wish we could figure out when that happened...

John played at all three Wiltern '04 shows.

They were filming the L'Via music video at London Brixton '05 shows. Or at least we can see the cameras on the 13th audience DVD. Were the crews around for other shows?

 

Or perhaps footage from those shows are what was used for the L'Via music video.

I don't remember this BBC '08 one. But I bet you can find info on it here in The Coma. 

*EDIT - see that you did bump it. Seems like it was a bad radio quality rip. So I might have neglected it then. 

 

Goliath MTV - my memory is fuzzy on this. I thought there might have been a full version from a webrip. But the broadcast version only seems to be incomplete version (without Coda). But it's the first time they introduce the 'fever jam' right?

[issordni]

Well, goddamn. I had no idea that existed. Was that when they drew on the walls at Maide Vale and caused the refurbishment? That wasn't cool. Anyway I'm going to email my friend at Radio One and see if they can't find it in the archive.
