Date: 07 Sep 1998 20:00:48 +0200 +++ Hello all So at last there will be an Adamski album release on ZTT shortly. We had to wait for it for 4 years ! I remember that there was an announcement of an album release in 1994 by Adamski's L.A.Z.Y. (what's in a name).... Okay, so here it is. The tracks are very much like One Of The People. I have this album on a ZTT promo-tape, so the definitive (commercial) albumrelease may differ from this tape. The tape doesn't have an albumname yet: 1 Memories Of The Future 2 Sparklin' 3 One Of The People 4 Existential Boredom 5 Intravenous Venus 6 Antibody 7 Gods Teeth 8 Climbing Up 9 Love Story 10 Piccadilly Circus 11 Champagne Or Real Pain? 12 Ascendre Verso La Cima Curious: The tape is credited to "Adamski" instead of "Adamski's Thing"?!.

Date: 07 Sep 1998 20:01:49 +0200 +++ Hello again. The new Adamski single will probably be "Intravenous Venus" The tracklisting is: 1 Intravenous Venus 2 Shark Tank's Dry Roasted Mix 3 Mark!s Twisted Soul Vocal 4 Mark!s Fly Trap Dub 5 PF Project's Sharp Edge Mix 6 Venus vs. Noisy Sound Card Mix Don't know the cataloguenumber, because these mixes are from an unnumbered ZTT promo-tape. In my opinion, this is the best Adamski release on ZTT since L.A.Z.Y.! So let's watch out for the stream of new promo's and cd-singles.

Though I've been watching this list for some time now, this is my first mail to the list. I noticed that this ZTT mailing list comes alive, when there is news about Frankie, Propaganda, Art of Noise, 808 State, Seal etc. Though I think and probably agree with most of you, that ACT, Propaganda and Anne Pigalle (thank you Steve Lipson) were the best things ever happened on ZTT, I don't agree with those of you who say that mainly these artists are worth collecting ZTT. Especially the last ZTT years on Warners are very interesting. Many releases were cancelled / withdrawn or released in a very limited quantity. Examples are: The first Frames DC version of Fitzcarraldo (on ZTT, totally different from the "Trevor Horn" release); Klymaxx' "I..Feeling" promo releases; Sexus' cd-single of "How Do You Kiss"; The ZTT/Warner releases of Heights of Abraham etc. etc. I also must say that for example Sexus and Public Demand where really good. It's a pity that these artists were promoted very poorly by Warner, because they had the potentials to become big (like All Saints..........). Expect some ZTT updates from me in the near future so we can fill up all those mysterious ZTT gaps. Cheers, Henry ps: Does anyone have news about the latest Trevor Horn activities? # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info ztt" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email ztt@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # ZTT discography available at http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?ztt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Mark Wasiel" Subject: (ztt) Let the US re-issues begin... Date: 07 Sep 1998 20:07:25 -0700 Hi everyone. I just got some excellent news regarding the US re-release of ZTT back catalog as well as the new Adamski CD. Basically, you can expect Universal Records (soon to merge with mighty Polygram Records) to be releasing the following on Oct. 20 (subject to change of course!): FGTH - WTTP FGTH - Liverpool FGTH - Bang FGTH - Reload [which i believe never was released in the US, was it?] AON - Who's Afraid AON - Daft Propaganda - Secret Wish Propaganda - Wishful Thinking [another US new release] and finally... 808 State - 90 808 State - ex:el 808 State - Gorgeous I don't know whether 90 will be the original UK release or the Tommy Boy US release Utd 90 with a new barcode. I'm sure we will get more info soon and I'll let you know. Additionally, as mentioned, the new Adamski CD will be coming out in the US on that day as well. With the exception of Adamski, the retail price on the re-issues should be mid-line pricing (i.e. $11.99-13.99 depending on your record store of choice). That is most excellent news!!

Anyway, after a break of around four months its good to be back with like- minded Zang fans. Have Propaganda done any more to their new material ie. released anything? The last I heard was that three of the four original (80's) members were working on new material as of the beginning of this year. I look forward to sharing my views, and your news.

A quick hello - my name's Philip and i've been lurking for ages. My interests: Propaganda Act and Claudia Brucken, 808, AON, and most things Morley. I guess I'm joining the list now coz ZTT seems to be getting a little bit interesting / oblique again after years of being just a borin old record label trying very hard indeed not to sell the odd decent thing it signed (ie 808 / Sexus etc). Now the label has been re-launched + re-Morleyed it seems a lot less poorly than before. It is regaining its original spirit somehow....

I'm a fan of the ZTT label, but I'm mainly interested in anything to do with Propaganda and 808State. Since September of last year I have been reading about a come-back for Propaganda - the original 80's group - and I'm curious about any new material in general. Some possible questions that come to mind are: - Any more collaborations with other artists? - The technology being used to create new material? - Any old synths? - Any new versions of old songs... and cover versions? - Is Claudia still into painting/art, and if so can we expect to see some, perhaps on an album cover as on 'Wishful Thinking'? Can I/all ZTT'ers expect to read the results of your interview? I look forward to the results.

Salt Lake City is the location of xmission.com, that hosts this list, remember, so don't knock it :) I spent 2 weeks in SLC working for XMission, actually, and got a feel for the environment there. It's a bit square, with the religion and all of that, but the geographical isolation has had some interesting effects on the culture. One of the things I found most intriguing was that synth-pop is HUGE in Salt Lake City. Okay, maybe it's not selling out arenas, but the genre apparently never experienced the kind of decline that the genre felt in the rest of the world in the early 90s. I passed through Salt Lake again last month, and my traveling companion remarked that her impression of the city was that it and its inhabitants are "very mild." Putting all this together, it wouldn't surprise me to see FGTH and Propaganda being relatively popular there. The other thing to consider is that Soundscan is probably getting its sales information from distributors and major chain stores when they place their orders, rather than point-of-sale activity. So if Tower, Camelot, Best Buy, Barnes & Noble or any of the other major chains open a new store or simply decide to order a batch of Propaganda CDs for distribution to stores throughout Utah, then that particular week you'll probably see Salt Lake at the top of the list. I am just speculating, though. And that's not to say that register sales don't translate into distributor orders.

RIAA certification (e.g. gold & platinum records) is based on units shipped to retailers (which is why they are, for the most part, meaningless, but make great copy for publicity people). 2. soundscan numbers are only estimates as scans are "weighted" (i.e. if an album sells at an indie store (as opposed to a chain like musicland, it may count as more than 1 sale to reflect sales at non-soundscan stores. this is very complicated, so i'll leave it at that. 3. the "index" referred to probably has to do with expected sales based on a market's overall sales ranking in the united states. so, if a title was expected to sell 100,000 units across the country and, say, salt lake city, usually accounts for 1% of an album's sales, it would be expected to sell 1,000 units. if it sold 2,000 units instead, it's INDEX would be 200. similarly, if new york city's sales percentage were 50% and the album sold 50,000 units, it's index would be 100. thus, salt lake city would have a higher INDEX ranking. hope that helps clear things up.

It is called "Rock Around The Dock - The Wind Of Liverpool". This is a kind of "playback" gig with a stage on water where different artists played two songs. This included FGTH who played "Rage Hard" and "Warriors". This is very fun ! I also noticed two new LDs - Seal - related : 1. Released in June ' 98 (in Europe, I don't know about the US) Best of MTV Unplugged (1&2) - 85 min. including : Seal - " Prayer For The Dying" - acoustic 2. to be released in the US (10 November 1998) Seal - SEAL, 1991 I suppose this is the LD version of the VHS tape released in '91 (as well as a LD but in Japan only, and very very hard to find) Regards Emmanuel Emmanuel Private collection for sale. http://users.skynet.be/goedseel/sumsales.html # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info ztt" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email ztt@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # ZTT discography available at http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?ztt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Lazlo Nibble Subject: Re: (ztt) FGTH-SEAL on Laser Discs Date: 28 Sep 1998 10:20:21 -0600 On Sun, Sep 27, 1998 at 11:23:16PM +0200, Emmanuel Goedseels wrote: > 2. to be released in the US (10 November 1998) > > Seal - SEAL, 1991 > > I suppose this is the LD version of the VHS tape released in '91 (as well > as a LD but in Japan only, and very very hard to find) Yup, that's what it is.
