  • Paul Williams,

    That Leftside Wobble edit, fantastic, how'd it come to pass that I've not heard a remix of Who is He before... it's screaming out to be remixed. Still my favourite cover is by Me'Shell NdegeOcello.

    Oh, nice: Barkers have a new range of t-shirts based on classic Flying Nun EP covers. I am gonna get me some of this one, for certain.

    Barkers, am I the only one that thinks that's a little weird? Clearly their brand has changed from when I was in NZ, in a great way... will check to see if they do online sales!

    Little Brother was doing FN shirts for a while, but the shirts were expensive and definitely not cut for the Dad market.

    Barkers came in last year -- possibly connected to LB's new arrangement with them -- and it seems to be working quite well.

    Cheers. Soundcloud, I've used a bit but not much. I've been streaming a lot of stuff with grooveshark.com, but it has it's limitations as this search reveals

  • Russell Brown,

    Gah. I knew there was something I'd forgotten.

    The new Jamie Xx mix for FACT magazine is brilliant. 30-odd mins of spooky house/garage.

    How’s this for an interesting take on a classic?

    Thunderskank vs Russo covering Massive Attack’s Teardrop – turns it from a stripped back, heartfelt slug of raw emotion into a gigantic slide of beats. Download via rcrdlbl, or watch on youtube:

    Massive Attack's

    Funnily enough I was just thinking the opening to this NuTone remix of Emeli Sande Heaven had a certain Massive Attack vibe. At about 24 secs in.

  • Mark Cubey,

    I'm listening to the new Thrashing Marlin album, a lovely dark piece of work from Steve and David of Plan 9... The cover (Thai visions of hell) sets the tone for 14 tracks of unusual instrumentation, solid tunes, and lyrical Kiwi gothic. I really love this song, A Rock to the South, and may play it tomorrow morning if I get space between interviews and feel that the "shithole" in the chorus won't offend too many listeners.

    LBGP, sigh. I remember them playing a shredding version of Buffy St Marie's 'Codeine' one night at Paisley Park in Wgtn. Would pay good money for that.
