The KLF didn’t die, they were just reborn under Jimmy Cauty’s artful vision as various post KLF musical projects with an array of collaborations and names. Towerblock 1 is just the latest. It is pure KLF ambient.

this one is quite obscure. At about 50 seconds into the final track ("Pluto, then re-entry to earth") from the #KLF 1990 ambient LP "Space", the strings from #EnnioMorricone's soundtrack to the movie #TheMission swell up from deep in space as our virtual space ship whizzes past. And my heart fills with wonder.
I don't know who the credit goes to - #JimmyCauty for making "Space" or Morricone for his soundtrack. But then that is post-modernism for you, isn't it?

@eclectech I haven't read this but it's probably good. https://johnhiggs.com/books/the-klf/ #KLF #TheKLF
They're justified and they're ancient, and they drive an ice cream van.

@HannaEsmeralda_ Kiitos - olisin missanut ilman kuulutusta! Olipa hyvä dokkari. Todella katsomisen arvoinen. Vielä ehtii!
TÄMÄ ON VIIMEINEN KUULUTUS!
Loistava Who Killed The KLF -dokkari on enää tämän päivän Areenalla.
Tiesit bändiä tai et, diggasit siitä tai et, tämä on aivan Must See #dokkari kulttuuriorientoituneille ihmisille!

Yle ArenanWho Killed the KLF?Technobandet KLF (1987 - 1992) är ett av de mest egendomliga och spännande fallen i hitmusikens historia. Det gjorde jättehittarna What time is love och Justified & ancient. Dokumentärfilmen är en upptäcktsresa till bandets kraftduos, Jimmy Cauty och Bill Drummond, anarkistiska upptåg och till tänkande som kombinerar konspirationsteorier, hyss, esoterisk Mu Mumytologi och kapitalismkritik. Chris Atkins regiverk utgör en helt inofficiell tolkning av konstprojektet KLF, som slutade i kaos. (Storbritannien, 2021)

This song both soothes and terrifies me and hence is a perfect choice for today, as this is basically my current mood:

New on the fansite: interview with John Cook, bassist with Strawberry Switchblade 1983-4.
He talks not only about his time on the road and in the studio with the band, but also about his earlier career with Jimmy Cauty who went on to be half of the KLF, and his subsequent academic work including a new paper on his final gig with Strawberry Switchblade.
