bickster Posted June 3, 2022 Moderator Share Posted June 3, 2022 You might dig this @chrisp65 Flying Mojito Brothers - Greatest Hits (1970 - 1983) Cosmic American Disco A couple of DJs completely reimagining the likes of The Doors, Steely Dan, CSNY, Santana, Waylon Jennings and more The constant disco beat is not as annoying as you would imagine. (Other contributors to this thread may be horrified) It definitely isn't for everyone though. It's a highly iffy self-release, there's absolutely no credits on it at all and is sold as a limited edition for "promotional DJ use only" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Will give whatever they have done to Waylon a blast once I am away from a place where I won't be judged as being a dick for listening to music on my phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an acquired taste that I haven't acquired I think. May be up @Xann street I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Yeah I’ve just listened to a couple of trailers for that. I’ll crank up the big laptop later and Bandcamp it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Jesus Jones on BBC4 TOTP. Liked by men who tucked their t-shirts into their jeans and thought Jesus Jones were as alternative as Psychic TV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liked by men who tucked their t-shirts into their jeans and thought Jesus Jones were as alternative as Psychic TV. I’m guessing that subliminally I had heard of Jesus Jones. But I hadn’t realised I’d heard of Jesus Jones. I wrote / drew the start of a footy fanzine around a character I thought I’d invented called Jesus Jones. He lived in a caravan and only came out of the ‘van at night so he missed every game. Having invested quite a bit of time writing up back story (that in hindsight was the backstory of Silver Surfer) and drawing quite a lot of caravans and night scenes… I bloody found not only was there a band called Jesus Jones there was already a **** **** **** fanzine character called Jesus Jones. Genuinely never had the heart to just re name the character. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vauxhall Conference PWEI - the Grebo Blythe Spartans But mentions ov Psychic TV remind me that there seem to be a fair few people that want to give the word removed that was Genesis P Orridge money by covering Godstar. Surely there’s nicer word removeds songs you can cover. He was only a few steps removed from Charles Manson ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Found a new hip hop podcast in the last week called the bridge Its by Nas and an American radio journo called miss info Its really relaxed and chatty, a lot of the guests just talk to Nas about him and tell stories of things they've done together and how they've influenced and respect each other, very natural conversation which makes it really interesting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Jesus Jones album on tape and one single. I don't know why. Between us we have a ridiculous amount of PWEI probably every release between 87 and 94. But neither of us are what you would call fans. Anyway. PWEI were on TOTP tonight with get the girl. It was above average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Elizabeth Fraser has just released a new track Golden Air under the name Sun's Signature with her partner Damon Reece. It's not bad at all. Think there's an EP due soon too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Elizabeth Fraser's 'colaboration' with Massive Attack drummer Damon Reece" 1) You don't have a collaboration with your husband 2) It's their new band, it isn't some temporary hook up as collaboration suggests 3) Damon is really only a session man for MA, he has no creative input really, though he did when he was in the Bunnymen, Spiritualised and Lupine Howl. He's also done a lot of work with Alison Goldfrapp but its always MA that gets the mention Nice bloke Damon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
