Okay, I need some help tracking down a few tracks heard last night at the 'King of the Boots' night at Asylum (with Lyra and Sauron - good to meet you, eyeball kid, by the way...).
1: it's the vocals from that Eric Sermon/Marvin Gaye tune 'Music' over what I could have sworn was the music (maybe chopped up a bit, maybe not) from 'Not Fade Away' by the Rolling Stones, but might well have actually been 'My Generation' by The Who.
2: the vocals from Outkast's 'Ms Jackson' over some kind of rock number... the music is almost proggy/industrially, y'know, it's quite slow and crunching.
3: the vocals from Ol' Dirty Bastard's 'Got Your Money' over some incredibly familiar guitar riff I can't place (sounds sorta 80s).
4: the vocals from Sloop John B over... fuck, I've no idea. I blame the round of double tequilas Lyra insisted on buying.
The Freelance Hellraiser is a young cock, by the way. Looks like he went to a boarding school, but very enthusiastic. Was throwing out free records to the crowd - I believe Lyra went home with one. Unless that was Osymyos or whatever the other guy's name is, in which case he was playing a lot of the Freelance Hellraiser's records...
Anyway, I really love these things, I have to say. Maybe it's the sense of anarchic creativity running wild - free to fuck up and make mistakes and make tracks that don't work, but all done, as Flux says, out of a passion and love for music which you can often hear in the records. Maybe it's just that they sound fucking great when you're drunk (god, that Nelly/Grange Hill one is just unbelievably good like this, it makes you want to giggle and grin and dance all at once). |
