On news-shelves this month is a nice 3 page article in Q Magazine, about the tense recording sessions Massive Attack underwent when recording Mezzanine and how it ultimately led to fracturing the band irreconcilably. I’ve already scanned and added it to the gallery archive for anyone who would like to download it in glorious 300dpi.

So for this inaugural playlist of the month, I’m focusing on the old 100th Window samples that used to be played repeatedly on the old MA.COM, circa 2003. They’re an interesting representation of the album broken down into its most basic elementary forms. After listening to these, I think you may have an even further appreciation for the intricacies and depth of sound offered by the 100th Window album.
As for this new site, I’ve spent quite a fair chunk of time making it. It’s a blog/wiki/forum/social network all-in-one, all perfectly integrated into one whole. All actions done across the site – making a forum post, editing the wiki, leaving a blog comment etc… all get reported back to your activity stream – think of it as a mini version of a Facebook Wall.
