Tag: Orchestral Manoeuvres

We wreck the joint with an acid rain of Adonis, Type-303, Paul Funk, Hunter Lombard, Lambrini Girls, Courtney Barnett, Logan Lynn and Makoto with a strangely serious podcast made of acid house bangers new and old, punk, pop, liquid dnb and indie rock. I let the music do the talking about climate change, corruption and the status quo (not Status Quo, although they are always welcome too). Also new releases from B. Dolan, OMD and Duran Duran which are also in a similar global tip, and we talk about the 60th anniversary of Doctor Who and why the Doctor Woke bigots should get into the sea, and even play the odd mashup, including a new one from me using Dua Lipa's latest. Then we go into a Doctor Who inspired 'we are star dust' section, floating among the cosmos with Disasterpeace, Roger Eno, Elizabeth Parker, Mono and World's End Girlfriend and oki bringing the deep ending widescreen space vibes.

This is 390, and it's been a while. 00:04:39.760 --> 00:04:51.160I've been off doing things. In fact, off wild camping the last couple of days, so I am exhausted, not tired, exhausted. There is a difference. 00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:54.440One is one where sleep doesn't really help, you just have to rest. 00:04:55.000 --> 00:05:05.400And that was, I mean, Houdini is everywhere at the moment, literally everywhere. It's very similar to everywhere by Fleetwood Mac, and who does Fleetwood Mac measure up to well? Me. 00:05:05.400 --> 00:05:17.200That's Captain Obvious with Houdini Everywhere, Dua Lipa, Houdini vs. Fleetwood Mac's Everywhere, The PsycheMagik Edit, which is my favourite remix of that track. 00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:25.640And then at start we had DJ Spud with AI Pop Revolution, a dig at UMG on this podcast. 00:05:25.640 --> 00:05:27.000Whoever heard of such a thing? 00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:31.920And the podcast is called Wreck The Joint after a track played later on. 00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:48.800We have a kind of a, if I say it's an existential acid electro banger with a few references to big TV events and also topics in the world that put you off. 00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:57.120I don't know. It's a weird one. It's very, it's one of these ones where I put together without a message and then suddenly a message just formed. 00:05:57.320 --> 00:06:03.040I don't know how that happened. So we start singing, which doesn't have a message, but it's it's a really beautiful song. 00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:15.160This is Allegri by Thylacine and the composer is called Allegri and the tracks called Misere and it infamously was transcribed by Ia for the Vatican. 00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:22.680And it was super secret and things like that were never allowed to out, never written down because, you know, they will do all the rights to it. 00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:27.680You know, they want to do the copyrights like UMG Mozart heard it once and then scribed it from memory. 00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:32.440That's how much Mozart was a genius. So this is Thylacine with Allegri. 00:52:22.520 --> 00:52:35.800that was Courtney Barnett with Dead Fox 00:52:35.800 --> 00:52:39.560from 2015. 00:52:39.560 --> 00:52:44.360Her album, Sometimes I Sit Think and Sometimes I Just Sit, classic. 00:52:44.520 --> 00:52:50.360So I didn't play that before, and it suited the ecology vibe, but the weird thing is, 00:52:50.360 --> 00:52:53.800I did not put any of that mix together with that idea. 00:52:53.800 --> 00:53:00.200It just happened, and I was listening to it and going, oh, that's what this is about. 00:53:00.200 --> 00:53:05.800Yeah, sometimes these things are in the back of my mind. I've been doing YouTube videos on my hiking channel. 00:53:05.800 --> 00:53:09.720I am The Hard Up Hiker, which is at Hard Up Hiker on YouTube. 00:53:10.440 --> 00:53:16.920And if you're into hiking or camping or wild camping or stealth camping, she's all, then check me out. 00:53:16.920 --> 00:53:21.480But I'll be doing stuff about greenwashing and green, and I think I'll leak into that mix. 00:53:21.480 --> 00:53:24.360Something that's very close to my heart, climate change and all that lot. 00:53:24.360 --> 00:53:27.480And I'll let the music speak for myself, really. 00:53:27.480 --> 00:53:34.600And then before that, we had kleptocracy from the new album Bauhaus Staircase from OMD. 00:53:34.600 --> 00:53:39.800And yeah, it's nice to have OMD back, and also a political OMD. 00:53:40.280 --> 00:53:43.320Which is not something we have been for a very long time. 00:53:43.320 --> 00:53:46.440I mean, it's kind of sometimes been in there, but yeah, not until the early days, 00:53:46.440 --> 00:53:50.680when they were that post-punk and fiery talking about, well, various people. 00:53:50.680 --> 00:53:52.120I think Trump is one of them. 00:53:52.120 --> 00:53:55.880And corruption that's happening around the world. 00:53:55.880 --> 00:53:59.880And even a bit about Khashoggi being chopped up at the embassy and stuff like that. 00:53:59.880 --> 00:54:03.560Yeah, there's lots of stuff in there. I need to look at the lyrics, decipher it all, actually. 00:54:03.560 --> 00:54:06.840And Saudi money and all that sort of stuff. 00:54:07.480 --> 00:54:12.040Yeah, it's sort of all creeping into all of our lives. It's disturbing. 00:54:12.040 --> 00:54:19.960Then before that, we had Logan Lynn with Baby Britain from his album New Money from 2022. 00:54:19.960 --> 00:54:22.440And that is on Kill Rock Stars. 00:54:22.440 --> 00:54:25.480So I think he felt like he had to do an Elliot Smith cover. 00:54:25.480 --> 00:54:28.760But you know, Electro Elliot Smith, that's a brilliant idea. 00:54:28.760 --> 00:54:32.520And also, it shows how much of a bouncy pop song it is, 00:54:32.520 --> 00:54:37.560even though the lyrics are about the United States and how fucked up it is. 00:54:37.560 --> 00:54:39.480That is what that song is about. 00:54:39.480 --> 00:54:42.680But also, when I first heard it, I didn't hear it as that. 00:54:42.680 --> 00:54:47.240I heard it as kind of reflecting the small-minded attitudes in Britain, 00:54:47.240 --> 00:54:49.000you know, the little Britain thing. 00:54:49.000 --> 00:54:52.840So it's kind of got two things I know it's supposed to be about. 00:54:52.840 --> 00:54:57.160To me, it's also about that almost like tries to be the United States part of Britain, 00:54:57.160 --> 00:54:59.400the pharages and all those people. 00:54:59.400 --> 00:55:03.720And then before that, we had that sort of acid sections weaving in and out. 00:55:03.720 --> 00:55:06.440That's Paul Funk with Don't Make Me Wait for Acid, 00:55:06.440 --> 00:55:08.440which we never want to wait for acid. 00:55:08.440 --> 00:55:12.760That's 2016's album Aci 88, which is like a compilation. 00:55:12.760 --> 00:55:14.360I'm not sure when it actually came out. 00:55:14.360 --> 00:55:17.960Then before that, of course, I'm going to have a few curveballs in there. 00:55:17.960 --> 00:55:21.720That's My Blue Vird, Rendez-vous from 1977. 00:55:21.720 --> 00:55:26.040And that's one of the random cosmic dudes tracks. 00:55:26.040 --> 00:55:31.080I've already talked a lot of times about the amazing massive directory of 00:55:31.080 --> 00:55:36.040"cosmic" sort of electro, prog, disco, weirdness. 00:55:36.040 --> 00:55:40.520I think it was a Russian compilation because there's Russian things in there, 00:55:40.520 --> 00:55:42.280but don't put that against it. 00:55:42.280 --> 00:55:44.120That's well before all the invasions. 00:55:44.120 --> 00:55:45.960And I've been mining that for years. 00:55:45.960 --> 00:55:50.200It's just a wonderful, soul-seek directory, 00:55:50.200 --> 00:55:54.360which is full of real stuff you would not have found in a million years. 00:55:54.360 --> 00:55:58.040And that is kind of proto acid, that verbally synth line, 00:55:58.040 --> 00:56:00.840disco arpeggiation, but it has quite acid. 00:56:00.840 --> 00:56:03.800Then it goes into that sort of cheesy funk sections, 00:56:03.800 --> 00:56:05.160but they're wonderfully cheesy. 00:56:05.160 --> 00:56:07.080And then sort of the whole cheesy disco thing, 00:56:07.080 --> 00:56:09.000nothing wrong with cheesy. 00:56:09.000 --> 00:56:10.280We love cheesy disco. 00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:12.760And yeah, and it goes very expansive and it goes back to that. 00:56:12.760 --> 00:56:14.440I like that. 00:56:14.440 --> 00:56:15.000I like that. 00:56:15.000 --> 00:56:19.160Then before that, we had not acid, 00:56:19.160 --> 00:56:23.160but certainly disco was Giac with his mashup, 00:56:23.160 --> 00:56:26.520Lost In Too Much Music, Sister Sledge versus Jake Shears. 00:56:26.520 --> 00:56:27.960I don't know the Jake Shears track. 00:56:27.960 --> 00:56:29.160I know it's a new track. 00:56:29.160 --> 00:56:30.760I think it's called Too Much Music. 00:56:30.760 --> 00:56:32.200I think I've seen the video even, 00:56:32.200 --> 00:56:34.760but I need to properly listen to it. 00:56:34.760 --> 00:56:38.680I've kind of lost track with Jake Shears post Scissor Sisters, I have to say. 00:56:38.680 --> 00:56:43.400And then before that, we had the song on which name this podcast, 00:56:43.400 --> 00:56:45.400although spelt rather differently, 00:56:45.400 --> 00:56:47.240Reck The Joint by Adonis. 00:56:47.240 --> 00:56:50.600That is a classic from the compilation is 89, 00:56:50.600 --> 00:56:51.800but I think it's a bit early than that. 00:56:51.800 --> 00:56:54.600I think I think it's 88 or 87. 00:56:54.600 --> 00:56:56.520It's that sort of peak period of acid house. 00:56:56.520 --> 00:57:00.440Then before that some modern asset house from Type-303. 00:57:00.440 --> 00:57:03.320I haven't played Type-303 for a long while. 00:57:03.320 --> 00:57:07.720That smile from a new EP called Take Off. 00:57:07.720 --> 00:57:10.280There are certain people who I keep tabs on 00:57:10.280 --> 00:57:12.120and Type-303 is one of those. 00:57:12.120 --> 00:57:16.200I really like what they do with the modern acid sound. 00:57:16.200 --> 00:57:20.040Then before that from also from acid, 00:57:20.040 --> 00:57:23.40088 I think although there might be two albums called Acid 88. 00:57:23.400 --> 00:57:25.640I say, oh, that's really bizarre. 00:57:25.640 --> 00:57:27.640So there's a 2016 Acid 88 album, 00:57:27.640 --> 00:57:31.000but there's DJ Pierre presents Acid 88, Vol three. 00:57:31.000 --> 00:57:32.760Oh, I see it's a third in the series. 00:57:32.760 --> 00:57:33.800Yeah, as you were. 00:57:33.800 --> 00:57:36.760That's Hunter Lombard with Unlocked. 00:57:36.760 --> 00:57:39.400I like the sort of breaks acid feel of that. 00:57:39.400 --> 00:57:42.200Then another track from the OMD album. 00:57:42.200 --> 00:57:43.560That's Anthropocene. 00:57:43.560 --> 00:57:45.640And that reminds me of minimal by Pet Shop Boys, 00:57:45.640 --> 00:57:46.680which is where I like it. 00:57:46.680 --> 00:57:49.880But I like the use of AI. 00:57:49.880 --> 00:57:51.160It's not really AI voices. 00:57:51.160 --> 00:57:54.040It's TTS voices getting very geeky. 00:57:54.040 --> 00:57:54.840Those are the TTS. 00:57:54.840 --> 00:57:56.840I think it's called Charles, I think it is. 00:57:56.840 --> 00:57:59.240I'm showing my geekiness. 00:57:59.240 --> 00:58:03.720I've been looking into text to speech for a long time 00:58:03.720 --> 00:58:05.320and playing with it for a long time. 00:58:05.320 --> 00:58:07.160I have not much just come out with it, 00:58:07.160 --> 00:58:09.240but I'm waiting for that time 00:58:09.240 --> 00:58:12.040where I can just type the podcast and I have to say it. 00:58:12.040 --> 00:58:14.600We're almost there. 00:58:14.600 --> 00:58:15.240Almost there. 00:58:15.800 --> 00:58:17.320You know, I mean, I'll probably still say it anyway. 00:58:17.320 --> 00:58:18.520It's very quicker than typing it. 00:58:18.520 --> 00:58:20.360Things like corrections or just, you know, 00:58:20.360 --> 00:58:21.560being able to, you know, 00:58:21.560 --> 00:58:23.400back to the Amiga days I was playing with stuff. 00:58:23.400 --> 00:58:27.240Yeah, I think that's a TTS voice rather than AI voice. 00:58:27.240 --> 00:58:29.560It sounds a bit more robotic. 00:58:29.560 --> 00:58:31.880Talking about, well, it's interesting 00:58:31.880 --> 00:58:34.280because I've been doing during this walk 00:58:34.280 --> 00:58:37.160sort of three days, two nights of wild camping. 00:58:37.160 --> 00:58:40.280It was all through Neolithic landscapes 00:58:40.280 --> 00:58:41.880on the South Downs Way. 00:58:41.880 --> 00:58:43.400I went to Chanctonbury Ring. 00:58:43.400 --> 00:58:45.000I was going past so many. 00:58:45.000 --> 00:58:47.480I slept next to Tumuli. 00:58:47.480 --> 00:58:48.520Tumulus, Tumuli. 00:58:48.520 --> 00:58:50.200Tumulus, I think it was Tumulus rather than Tumuli 00:58:50.200 --> 00:58:50.680because it was one of them, 00:58:50.680 --> 00:58:51.320but there was actually, I think, 00:58:51.320 --> 00:58:52.120another one over there. 00:58:52.120 --> 00:58:52.520Over there. 00:58:52.520 --> 00:58:53.640So I got up on Tumuli. 00:58:53.640 --> 00:58:55.160Tumuli. 00:58:55.160 --> 00:58:57.320So much Neolithic chiseled. 00:58:57.320 --> 00:58:58.920That's kind of pointing out how, you know, 00:58:58.920 --> 00:59:00.360walking over all these things 00:59:00.360 --> 00:59:01.640which are changed by human hands 00:59:01.640 --> 00:59:03.800and how that is at risk 00:59:03.800 --> 00:59:05.320and the current scheme of things. 00:59:05.320 --> 00:59:06.920I'm amazed that I put all these songs together. 00:59:06.920 --> 00:59:08.520You know, and I put it next to Supernature, 00:59:08.520 --> 00:59:10.440which is the only reason I've got Supernature in 00:59:10.440 --> 00:59:11.720is because Duran Duran covered it 00:59:11.720 --> 00:59:13.480on the latest album which came out 00:59:13.480 --> 00:59:14.920at the end of October. 00:59:14.920 --> 00:59:17.720Danse Macabre, that in quotes goth album. 00:59:17.720 --> 00:59:19.560Then some more disco, I would say. 00:59:19.560 --> 00:59:23.240Disco goth, Black Disco, I don't know, Dark Disco. 00:59:23.240 --> 00:59:24.440So it has a few goth bits, 00:59:24.440 --> 00:59:25.720but you know, it's not that goth. 00:59:25.720 --> 00:59:29.160Black Moonlight's very good. 00:59:29.160 --> 00:59:31.160And that one, I really like their cover of 00:59:31.160 --> 00:59:32.920Cerrone's Supernature, 00:59:32.920 --> 00:59:33.640but I forgot. 00:59:33.640 --> 00:59:34.920I was not listening to the lyrics. 00:59:34.920 --> 00:59:37.160It's a song I love dearly, 00:59:37.160 --> 00:59:39.240but it is about people 00:59:39.240 --> 00:59:40.520screwing up the environment 00:59:40.520 --> 00:59:42.840and trying to accelerate the growth of things 00:59:42.840 --> 00:59:45.160and then creating monsters through messing with, 00:59:45.160 --> 00:59:47.960you know, I mean, Cerrone was ahead of his time, 00:59:47.960 --> 00:59:50.040GM crops and stuff, you know, so, yes. 00:59:50.040 --> 00:59:52.360And then before that, a cover, another cover, 00:59:52.360 --> 00:59:55.880by Taggy Matcher, which I heard on Dandelion Radio 00:59:55.880 --> 00:59:58.280very recently and was like, 00:59:58.280 --> 00:59:59.640"Oh, I've got Supernature. 00:59:59.640 --> 01:00:00.520Oh, Supernature." 01:00:00.520 --> 01:00:04.440You know, so that's Supernature featuring Phoebe Killdeer 01:00:04.440 --> 01:00:05.560I think it's Kildeer. 01:00:05.560 --> 01:00:08.040I mean, it's not a very fortunate name for, 01:00:09.080 --> 01:00:09.960I think it was a single, 01:00:09.960 --> 01:00:12.920but it's also from Disco Reggae Vol 5. 01:00:12.920 --> 01:00:15.800I've played quite a few of the Disco Reggae things in the past. 01:00:15.800 --> 01:00:21.240I like Taggy Matcher's style, covers and originals, 01:00:21.240 --> 01:00:23.240but sort of like Disco meets Reggae thing, 01:00:23.240 --> 01:00:25.160which I really like a lot. 01:00:25.160 --> 01:00:28.920And the start section, we had Allegri's Miserere, 01:00:28.920 --> 01:00:33.160as covered by French trans producer Thylacine 01:00:33.160 --> 01:00:35.320on 2020's Timeless, 01:00:35.320 --> 01:00:37.880doing the whole William Orbit thing, really. 01:00:38.520 --> 01:00:40.040It's very much in the William Orbit 01:00:40.040 --> 01:00:42.840as remixed by Ferry Corsten's sort of vibe. 01:00:42.840 --> 01:00:45.320A few people have done that classic, you know, 01:00:45.320 --> 01:00:48.280I mean, obviously, you're all back to Wendy Carlos. 01:00:48.280 --> 01:00:51.000I always like to shoe on some classical stuff in here, 01:00:51.000 --> 01:00:54.520because we like to pretend we're a little bit more refined 01:00:54.520 --> 01:00:55.400than we really are. 01:00:55.400 --> 01:01:02.280So yeah, I wasn't really expecting that accidental rumination 01:01:02.280 --> 01:01:05.160on corruption and the state of the world. 01:01:05.160 --> 01:01:06.840It's a bit of a heavy mix. 01:01:06.840 --> 01:01:09.000During that, I found out about Logan Lynn 01:01:09.000 --> 01:01:14.040and off the 30 years of Kill Rock Stars album, 01:01:14.040 --> 01:01:15.480looking for something else. 01:01:15.480 --> 01:01:20.280I checked out the whole album and then found this song. 01:01:20.280 --> 01:01:21.960It has a brilliant video. 01:01:21.960 --> 01:01:24.600Found the cover, the Elliot Smith cover off of that. 01:01:24.600 --> 01:01:26.120It doesn't mix that well, 01:01:26.120 --> 01:01:29.240but it does kind of follow on from the previous bit. 01:01:29.240 --> 01:01:33.880There's a few more message tracks, a few more, 01:01:33.880 --> 01:01:35.800and then we'll swerve into something else. 01:01:35.800 --> 01:01:38.840So this is Rich and Beautiful by Logan Lynn. 01:35:33.720 --> 01:35:54.920That was a new single by B. Dolan. I can't wait for a new album. I helped fund it. I want the 01:35:54.920 --> 01:36:02.120people to pledge for the new album. It's all done off Pledges and that is The Rock Cried Out. 01:36:02.120 --> 01:36:08.200Great video because we went way over the pledges massively so as to be able to afford 01:36:08.200 --> 01:36:16.440videos and tours and samples, which is unusual for a B. Dolan album. Usually they can't afford 01:36:16.440 --> 01:36:24.680samples. That's good. Before that, we had Hannah Williams and the Affirmations with Tablecloth. 01:36:25.640 --> 01:36:29.880A bit like the Hitchhiker's, the most elegant use of the word fuck. That's the most 01:36:29.880 --> 01:36:36.040divine use of the song fuck ever. Impactful as well. That's from 2019's 50 Foot Woman. I don't 01:36:36.040 --> 01:36:41.960know why. I didn't know until many years later she was on The Voice, but I really don't know why. 01:36:41.960 --> 01:36:47.480Sampled by Jay-Z, Hannah Williams and the Affirmations should have been, she and the group 01:36:47.480 --> 01:36:54.360should have been household names. I don't know why not. Before that, I've been tracking down for 01:36:55.160 --> 01:37:01.320two, three plus years. I had it in a really low quality rip off vinyl and it's one of these 01:37:01.320 --> 01:37:06.920annoying things where people are like, "Oh, we released the vinyl. We were not going to release 01:37:06.920 --> 01:37:13.480it on any of the format and it drives me mad when people do that." That was Bob and Gene and the 01:37:13.480 --> 01:37:19.480Inversions with It's Not What You Know, It's Who You Know. Victor Axelrod did the reggae version of 01:37:19.480 --> 01:37:27.000that and Daptone have just released a compilation. It's now out in decent quality on digital formats 01:37:27.000 --> 01:37:33.160and things. If you ask me to, Victor Axelrod covers for Daptone Records. I heard him being 01:37:33.160 --> 01:37:39.880interviewed on David Rodigan's show and it was good to hear, but the best thing was to hear that 01:37:39.880 --> 01:37:46.120I actually get that track. It's not some limited edition vinyl as it was before. I don't have a 01:37:46.120 --> 01:37:51.480vinyl deck so I can't. It's useless to me. I have to say a sentiment of that is very true, sadly. 01:37:51.480 --> 01:37:59.320And if you happen to be neurodiverse and don't really… I know people say Tim, "Don't blame 01:37:59.320 --> 01:38:04.760your behavior on your autism or whatever I am on the spectrum." But it's a bit more than that. 01:38:04.760 --> 01:38:10.840Burnout and people pick up on the weirdness and ableist bullying and yeah, there's all kinds of 01:38:10.840 --> 01:38:15.240stuff that people don't see behind the scenes. But all they see is you having a freak out. They 01:38:15.240 --> 01:38:20.360don't see all the shit that's been going on behind the scenes and people trying to gaslight you and 01:38:20.360 --> 01:38:25.880wind you up, which does happen, sadly. I'm now very aware of it so I just don't. I just shut that 01:38:25.880 --> 01:38:33.000shit down very quickly. I don't even play those games. But in my 20s and 30s, yeah, it was more 01:38:33.000 --> 01:38:41.000difficult. And then before that we had Instamatic again, me, with While My Flowers Gently Weep 01:38:41.000 --> 01:38:45.960Miley Cyrus vs The Beatles and we're playing that because it's a mashup I haven't played and 01:38:45.960 --> 01:38:55.480also The Beatles Now and Then in the news and a fairly drudgy, dreadful song. I don't know. I can 01:38:55.480 --> 01:39:02.760see why John Lennon left it. And I was hoping it would be a proper AI related release of Grow Old 01:39:02.760 --> 01:39:08.920With Me which would make much more sense and is a better song. It was sort of released as a demo 01:39:08.920 --> 01:39:14.840on the posthumous Lennon album and I think it would have made more sense than now and then, 01:39:14.840 --> 01:39:19.160which is just, you can kind of see why he never actually made it into a bigger thing. 01:39:19.160 --> 01:39:24.040It's not that good a song. George Harrison was right. Hence, there's a George Harrison there. 01:39:24.040 --> 01:39:29.480And also weirdly, it links into how you got inverted and the inversions. It's like, yeah, 01:39:29.480 --> 01:39:33.400that's probably not accidental. It's just by the way my brain works. It's really odd. 01:39:33.400 --> 01:39:40.680Then The Unusuals with Summer is Over and that is a probably best known Dustie Springfield 01:39:40.680 --> 01:39:46.680track which I didn't know about which is weird because I thought I knew I heard a lot of early 01:39:46.680 --> 01:39:54.120Dustie Springfield but is a B-side and she recorded her brother's track. The brother was a co-writer 01:39:54.120 --> 01:40:00.760of that track and it originally oddly went to Frank Ifield in 964 and then she did a cover 01:40:00.760 --> 01:40:08.280later on and that's from 1966. A very wonderful psych garage version and the singer is probably 01:40:08.280 --> 01:40:14.840better known, Kathi MacDonald in the sort of garage-y world. And then before that, we had 01:40:14.840 --> 01:40:21.320more stealth classical. It's a continuum by Disasterpeace but really, really, it's actually 01:40:21.320 --> 01:40:27.240Chopin's Prelude Op 28 number four. But you know, I didn't know that was actually a classical 01:40:27.240 --> 01:40:34.760theme but I liked the way he's done that. And Fez is an important game to me. I did another mash-up 01:40:34.760 --> 01:40:40.440with another Fez track so I mean I've done three Fez mash-ups. You can find that on my remix.audio 01:40:40.440 --> 01:40:45.560page. Just look for Instamatic or Captain Obvious you'll find it. That was kind of a link 01:40:45.560 --> 01:40:51.720because of the return of Doctor Who in the 60th year of "Doctor Who" to Danny Macabre's 01:40:51.720 --> 01:40:57.640Knights of Who Muse versus Doctor Who theme. And yeah, I haven't watched it yet. I was a choice 01:40:57.640 --> 01:41:02.760between either record this podcast or watch it. I'll watch it probably after I record this podcast 01:41:02.760 --> 01:41:08.200or tomorrow but yeah, I haven't watched it yet. I'm really looking forward to it. And the track 01:41:08.200 --> 01:41:14.760before Terf Wars by Lamarini Girls from 2023's You're Welcome which is a brilliant name for the 01:41:14.760 --> 01:41:20.520album is a response those people who have a problem with all the trans representation, 01:41:20.520 --> 01:41:25.560and all the queer representation in the new Doctor Who I'm sure there'll be lots of whining 01:41:25.560 --> 01:41:34.280about "Oh woke PC, lefty PC, it's gone terrible, oh all this woke PC crap" and yeah, Russell T. Davis 01:41:34.280 --> 01:41:39.800is basically told them to get in the sea. They're not the exact words but you know something along 01:41:39.800 --> 01:41:43.720those lines. Basically they'll have to live with their sad lonely lives I think that's what he said. 01:41:43.720 --> 01:41:50.360And good on them. And I think actually what it will be is because it's RTD it will be a great 01:41:50.360 --> 01:41:54.920story and it'll be great Doctor Who so these people are going to have to suck it up. Whenever 01:41:54.920 --> 01:41:59.960it's it just happens to have some representation but it doesn't work as well. Say Discovery I 01:41:59.960 --> 01:42:05.720think Discovery had its moments which I loved but it seemed to kind of struggle from pretty much to 01:42:05.720 --> 01:42:12.200the first series actually. Star Trek and all it got was "Oh no" and it's not the fault the characters 01:42:12.200 --> 01:42:17.400it's the writers and it's got nothing to do with whether there's a trans or non-binary character 01:42:17.400 --> 01:42:23.240or even a real person playing another character who is those things. No it's to do with writers and 01:42:23.240 --> 01:42:28.280lots of other things and it's always really depressing when you hear this "Oh oh it's 01:42:28.280 --> 01:42:34.520all it's because this woke him and it's like yeah because Doctor Who was never about social justice" 01:42:34.520 --> 01:42:42.440I've said this so many times this one character that is about social justice from day one. 01:42:42.440 --> 01:42:47.080You know I mean I think there was reading someone was criticising some of the early stuff like 01:42:47.080 --> 01:42:53.080Talons of Weng Chiang and kind of get it but it you know it's not exactly blackface it's a bit 01:42:53.080 --> 01:42:58.680you know yellowface yeah kind of the whole stereotype but that's kind of going off those 01:42:58.680 --> 01:43:06.280kind of stories there's Victorian stories and so I don't know if it was as bad as you know some of 01:43:06.280 --> 01:43:12.520the say blackface stuff or whatever it's of its time but I don't think especially with the stories 01:43:12.520 --> 01:43:18.760about Doctor Who you know fighting oppression and fighting against you know literal Nazis the 01:43:18.760 --> 01:43:23.960Daleks and stuff like that who were based off of the Nazis and stuff like fighting for the little 01:43:23.960 --> 01:43:28.360guy fighting oppression that's Doctor Who you know never once he went yeah you know what I 01:43:28.360 --> 01:43:33.000wouldn't know what I really should support is those Christian right wing corporations yeah I 01:43:33.000 --> 01:43:38.360think they're getting victimised and I think we should prop up capitalism and I think it all's 01:43:38.360 --> 01:43:43.960gonna all go really well there's never been a story we've done that so or she so yeah that is 01:43:43.960 --> 01:43:51.080you know weird so I hope they all have yeah I hope they all have sad lonely lives with their old 01:43:51.080 --> 01:43:59.000reruns leave all us to enjoy new Doctor Who and then before that we had a bit of Drum and Bass 01:43:59.000 --> 01:44:04.840with Osiris by Makoto and Danny Wheeler that's from 2021's What You Need I always like to 01:44:04.840 --> 01:44:10.120drop in a little bit Makoto or liquid drum and bass because that's that's kind of where my heart 01:44:10.120 --> 01:44:15.080is quite often then at the start of the section we had Logan Lynn with Rich And beautiful from 01:44:15.080 --> 01:44:21.0002021's 30 years of Kill Rock Starss which is a great compilation by the way starts out a bit very 01:44:21.000 --> 01:44:25.400indian tonal sort of stuff but then there's a little bit stuff like one of the early Gossip singles 01:44:25.400 --> 01:44:31.080that came out a year or two before Standing the Way of Control hit one or two years before it was 01:44:31.080 --> 01:44:35.400a big hit and no one was interested and then it suddenly just took off I think it was bit of a 01:44:35.400 --> 01:44:39.960sleeper it went crept up the charts and crept up crept up it got into the you know the highest 01:44:39.960 --> 01:44:44.840charts and then it just you know skyrocketed one of the singles before that was a track about called 01:44:44.840 --> 01:44:51.480Listen Up! and that is really good and it's a bit of a forgotten classic of theirs so we're gonna 01:44:51.480 --> 01:44:59.400play more into the star theme because of Doctor Who I've been really loving and I'd say shout out to 01:44:59.400 --> 01:45:06.120Ian Fondue for posting about this Paradise Marsh I'm not even played the game but Disasterpeace 01:45:06.120 --> 01:45:12.200again has done I don't know it's a bit like if you imagine Campfire Headphase by BoC meets Disasterpeace 01:45:12.200 --> 01:45:17.720and 8-bit and the sort of stuff he's been doing in piano music and that's what it feels like 01:45:17.720 --> 01:45:24.600and it's about a frog in a marsh but this is a track called The Celestial Fields and it is beautiful 02:15:13.000 --> 02:15:27.000that was oki with Call Me Comfortably Numb Lil Nas X versus Pink Floyd that was three 02:15:27.000 --> 02:15:32.840years old and I only heard that so playing that iWillBattle on his twitch stream and 02:15:32.840 --> 02:15:38.760yeah I hadn't heard that before and I joked and it's only part joking though I don't have the 02:15:38.760 --> 02:15:42.680time to organize at the moment that me and oki should get together and do a Pink Floyd album 02:15:42.680 --> 02:15:49.960that is a good idea the problem is I'm so busy doing the youtube shizzle hence why this podcast 02:15:49.960 --> 02:15:55.960is late hence why I've sorted out Christmas podcast but from then I can't guarantee when I'm 02:15:55.960 --> 02:16:01.080going I do want to podcast I do want to get the podcast going this out the blog and the mashups 02:16:01.080 --> 02:16:08.280they've all kind of fallen by the bike you really have to commit 100% to youtube given I have an 02:16:08.280 --> 02:16:15.720audience there it's just under 300 subscribers at the moment and one of my videos went not exactly 02:16:15.720 --> 02:16:20.840viral but you know I mean for something that was just me talking to have like well last time I looked 02:16:20.840 --> 02:16:27.000it was 15 000 but it's probably more views now yeah I've been shooting all these wild camping 02:16:27.000 --> 02:16:32.920hiking gear videos and people always said to me oh you should go where your audience is and I never 02:16:32.920 --> 02:16:39.960really did it until now and so I feel bad for my other audiences and my other things but that's 02:16:39.960 --> 02:16:45.560where things are taking off at the moment and that's where I could actually earn some money so 02:16:46.200 --> 02:16:51.400money being a real problem at the moment podcasts and mashups do not earn money partly because they're 02:16:51.400 --> 02:16:57.480other people's content so it's kind of interesting doing something that's completely original my stuff 02:16:57.480 --> 02:17:04.920my video my scripts me talking my ugly face all of that and that people actually want to watch 02:17:04.920 --> 02:17:12.760which is I find amazing really I've got a great face for audio so yes then before oki we had 02:17:13.480 --> 02:17:21.240Mono and World's End Girlfriend with trailer 3 from 2006 palmless prayer mass murder refrain 02:17:21.240 --> 02:17:28.520and that is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever that's just astoundingly beautiful I mean 02:17:28.520 --> 02:17:34.440the name you describe it is I don't know shoe gaze or post rock it's only very different from what 02:17:34.440 --> 02:17:41.960World's End Girlfriend does but Mono have to that's Mogwai the out Mogwai Mogwai quite often and yeah 02:17:41.960 --> 02:17:47.400that that is really beautiful and there are several other tracks like that on that album very long 02:17:47.400 --> 02:17:51.880incredibly long and I played all of it pretty much 6music wouldn't do that they have to 02:17:51.880 --> 02:17:55.640cut open sections I don't know why because it's like it's a music station you should be able to 02:17:55.640 --> 02:18:01.240play long tracks people just don't play long tracks we do hear everyone's ever like something I will 02:18:01.240 --> 02:18:05.800play it all in full I know I mix in the mix things but some things I'm like nope I'm playing 02:18:05.800 --> 02:18:11.080all that and that's one of them then before that we had Roger Eno Dust Of Stars is 02:18:11.720 --> 02:18:19.240from his 2018 album that's working with youth the sample in there is Jean-Michel Basquiat 02:18:19.240 --> 02:18:27.960from a very strange release in his band Gray I mean the idea of it as being a pop band and then 02:18:27.960 --> 02:18:33.880it starts with a spoken word intro of him calling up a suicide hotline what gets kind of muffled 02:18:33.880 --> 02:18:39.240sadly in that is he's saying the city is killing me which is a brilliant brilliant line and then 02:18:39.240 --> 02:18:43.880it goes completely mad it's sample collage it goes to be a very Tomorrow Never Knows 02:18:43.880 --> 02:18:50.120after that but that intro has been sampled quite a lot and then before that we had Elizabeth Parker 02:18:50.120 --> 02:18:56.280with the Dying of the Light from the recent compilation Future Perfect now the funny thing 02:18:56.280 --> 02:19:01.320is is that you listen to that obviously it's not a new track it's an old track and then listen to 02:19:01.320 --> 02:19:07.320Disasterpeace which which is mixed in between it sort of goes between it and that's Celestial Fields 02:19:07.320 --> 02:19:13.080and from Paradise Marsh I'm not exactly sure when that Dying of the Light track was created but it 02:19:13.080 --> 02:19:18.840would probably be several decades ago it probably would be 80s or 90s there's so much similarity 02:19:18.840 --> 02:19:25.720there it's it's crazy and so we've reached the end of the podcast I hope you enjoyed this it's 02:19:25.720 --> 02:19:29.560it's not been so much mashups it's one of these things where it's really depends on your mood 02:19:29.560 --> 02:19:34.360thing and sometimes I just want to focus on original music a bit like I'm focusing on original 02:19:34.360 --> 02:19:43.640content mashups can be a little bit too sweet I'm probably bad for you a little bit concentrated 02:19:43.640 --> 02:19:48.440a little bit too too too saccharine a little bit too sweet sometimes there's like a plus b plus c 02:19:48.440 --> 02:19:56.440or you know it's like it gets a bit hyper and sometimes you want to go back to the meat and veg 02:19:56.440 --> 02:20:04.040rather than the chocolate on that sundae with you know lots of cream and cherry on top which 02:20:04.040 --> 02:20:09.080mashups tend to be I don't know if someone makes them but you know I'm always very aware of trying 02:20:09.080 --> 02:20:12.840to get things in patica we're not trying to add more and more and more until you get this 02:20:12.840 --> 02:20:20.200multi-mash monstrosity and it's just too much and I was very much like that with my 72 segment 02:20:20.200 --> 02:20:28.040which which hasn't come out yet it's soon soon the 72 part 6 will come out and I'm part of that 02:20:28.040 --> 02:20:33.560and my section was very much like I listened to the previous sections and went okay 02:20:33.560 --> 02:20:39.080you know let's let's do something my way do something that hasn't been done by anyone else 02:20:39.080 --> 02:20:46.840on this 72 and there's a longer version of one of the combos I used some people like 20 parts 20 02:20:46.840 --> 02:20:51.720things 10 things they seem to be throwing everything in and I don't think that necessarily works 02:20:51.720 --> 02:20:56.760especially in such a short section I think it's better to have a couple of a plus b's that really 02:20:56.760 --> 02:21:03.720work rather than two or three that do and then 10 that don't you know so I don't know how successful 02:21:03.720 --> 02:21:09.960it was I mean yeah I struggled with some of the keys hey wonderful Beatles again whatever the key 02:21:09.960 --> 02:21:17.320that Warren ever knows is in and also something where actually I did know but I forgot to actually 02:21:17.320 --> 02:21:21.720raise the key which is you know it's all kind of thing of part of like doing something to 02:21:21.720 --> 02:21:28.040in terms of 72 hours which is you know a rush I mean nowadays I can do that years ago I struggled 02:21:28.040 --> 02:21:33.560with anything that quick because it took me ages to do anything and about six months to listen to 02:21:33.560 --> 02:21:37.880it and then release and then find someone else has beat me by with three weeks yeah that quite 02:21:37.880 --> 02:21:43.640often happened so we're going to play out with the track from Bugsy Malone but this is a cover and 02:21:43.640 --> 02:21:48.440again there's just something I had spent ages trying to track down a high quality version 02:21:48.440 --> 02:21:55.000because I heard it on 6Music. Steve Lamac played this cover of You Give a Little Love and 02:21:55.000 --> 02:22:01.400it's one of my favourite songs from Bugsy Malone but it took me ages to find a non sort of 128 02:22:01.400 --> 02:22:06.440Kbps MP3 version you know something that was a bit better than that and so this is Silvery 02:22:06.440 --> 02:22:12.280and it's from 2010's Railway Architecture and I hope you're all well and I'll speak to you well 02:22:12.280 --> 02:22:17.160for the Xmas show I'm actually already put it together a whole bunch of things to play so not 02:22:17.160 --> 02:22:22.280like previous years they're like two they'll only be one and after that I don't know when I mean 02:22:22.280 --> 02:22:28.920it's you know I'll try and stick to one podcast a month but I don't know because it's finding the 02:22:28.920 --> 02:22:35.560time between filming videos and editing them and so anyway enough of my plans for YouTube 02:22:35.560 --> 02:22:38.840Domination here's You Give a Little Love by Silvery.
