For Amberglow (and whoever else) Yeah, you said email it to you. But why not share with everybody. Yes. KLF - Justified and Ancient
And if anyone is looking for any other classic/old/goofy techno I have a whole lot of random stuff
Well KLF-wise there was an instrumental/no vocal track on the Last Train to Transcentral CD single, which was also a stripped down version of the first track on the 2nd side of Chill Out.
There's also a remix of 3 AM eternal called "London by Night," quite slow and jazzy and with female vocals. And another remix of 3 AM Eternal - The Blue Danube Remix/KLF vs. the Orb.
I think I might actually have The Blue Danube remix, and I might have Last Train to Transcentral as well. I also have Killing Joke vs. The Orb somewhere and something else related to that. (I used to have every single Domestic-US Orb release, a lot of the imports, and a majority of the remixes/singles, which is a metric fuckton of Orb.)
The latter should be easy enough to find 'cause I ripped it from CD, but the former might be in my "untitled" folder of doom from back when iTunes 1.0 raped my directories for the first time before I knew what dangers lurked there.
I'll look at it, and if I don't find it before this thread rolls off I'll post an update.
The KLF left the music industry in May 1992, and deleted their back catalogue.
From the Wikipedia article... I also read a book by Zodiac Mindwarp and Bill Drummond where Bill Drummond reckoned the whole thing was a bet, the first to get to £1,000,000 had to burn it in Trafalgar Square. Or something. It was a nutty book.
Amber, other fun house tunes from the time may include: Reel 2 Reel 'I like to move it', Bizarre Inc. 'Don't you wanna be mine', Moby 'Next is the E', Doop 'Doop, (going back a bit further) C+C Music factory 'Gonna Make you Sweat', Steve Silk Hurley 'Jack your body', Snap 'Rythm is a dancer' and 'I got the power', Deelite entire first album and remix of 'Good Beat', MARRS 'Pump up the volume' etc etc
