Aka a Tale of Two Lizzes.... one Liz leaves as another arrives as I go away for a month and we get not only a new Prime Minister Liz Truss but a new monarch? So of course I have to start with God Save The Queen - Sex Pistols not Elgar - they cancelled the Last Night of the Proms anyway - and even the weather stops for the Queen dying! So here's a punky drum and bass party/wake/barricade rave....Trust and Obey, it's the only way... Treasonous tunes, christian songs, UK disco, jungle, Iranian synth ballads, french touch, spicy remixes, indie cover songs and mournful mashups, regal chiptunes, metal psych bootlegs, a focus on Your Woman by White Town which is 25 years old this year, and a tribute to Olivia Newton John. (Just don't mention Prince Andrew being a dirty old man....or the descent into fascism, that's apparently a Prevent-triggering thing now, to criticise your own country... :-/) P.S. You might see something odd about the main central image in the cover....it's AI generator NightCafe's idea of a mashup of Liz Truss and the Queen, it's frankly horrifying. Also the other Liz Truss image was also AI generated. You can tell as she looks far too lifelike here, a reverse Uncanny Vallet, more human less like the Tory Deep Dream bot she is. I'm guessing they'll fix that in V2. :-P Off With His Head!

Yes Neil from the Young Oneswith No Future God save the Queen doing a lounge version in1984 so well before Richard Cheese and all that lotAs I said, there's a lot of changes in a monthI mean we've got a new Prime Minister and we now we've got a new kingThat's kind of really weird to say that as you might have missedI mean if you were sleeping in a bunker and that bunker was soundproofed that bunker had no radio TVthat bunker didn't have anyone shouting through the letterbox or no access to any media andYou were probably in a catatonic coma for the past day or so because it's I'm recording this onEarly on Saturday, and it was yesterday the news brokeof the death ofQueen Elizabeth Windsor and I'm sure that intro might piss off a few people but look back in myJust search Royals jubilee on radioclash.com report backIt's not a new thing. I am a republican not a big R republican and not a Trump person or whateverI don't believe in the monarchy. So am I sad?Anyone's died and she wasn't the worst royal and it really feels like he's down to and to be the only decent on royal in the bunch IWill argue that now Liz has gone. Can we just abolish it?I could see that she was good at keeping the duty and although the sacrifice isHorrible all of that shit that comes with itYou know so much it drives people out literally out of theEncodes what they call the family or the business, you know, and I appreciate that I appreciate the fact that she didn't take the best like some of themBut the rest of them. Yeah, King Charles the third. YesLike Charles won't interfere. So yeah, we're leading into strange times hence that selection ofdystopian mashups and weird covers and I don't know we're sleepwalking into fascism as wide soBecause you will go everywhere and these signs everywhere and of course Liz Truss isUsing it the other Liz. Yeah, two lizards. Yeah, I thought about that. I should have called it a two lizards, shouldn't I?too late now andYeah, it's it's kind of a tale of two lizardsMaybe I'll call it that the tale of two lizardsThat's the subtitle and everywhere you go all the billboards are now saying Queenin Memoriam and every flag is a half mast andJust for 12 hours. No, it was no programming even the program you get nowThey're playing varies down BBC all things of past music like a track we've played here in cover fromGoodbye to England by Laura Marley except I was playing it in a way criticizing all of this stuffWe're then using it to push that agenda and it's justAll of these sort of oh, she wasn't bad really. Oh, she was everyone's granny. I just Imean even Soft CellSoft Cell the post-punk band soft sell was posting how much they like the Queen andMarc Almond just finally posting a tributeIt'd be like Johnny Rotten coming out maybe has done the said she was all right really. I don't knowStrange strange strange times. I don't know. You see I go away for a month and everything goes madBut yeah, I was on holidayI think explained on the previous podcast that I was walking just walking just walked. I was walking down in theNot in Memphis in though, so the West Country, I suppose it's approaching the West CountryDefinitely West Country by the by the end of the tripfrom Weymouth to Lyme Regis along the coast andVarious bits around or in Cerne Abbas the giant was a big willy on the hillsideAnd Devon so going to Devon and Branscom and I was intending to get to Xmouth and Sidmouth, butThe weather and fatigue interfered. I started having a really bad reaction to Sunburnbut I wasSunburn frozendrownedBlown away. I was just yeahI got all the all the weather's we had the mini heatwave when I left and then it started raining and getting very misty and it was funTrying to paint because that's what it was for. It was a working holidayPaint things and draw things when they're disappearing in and out of not consciousness and visibilityAnd so there's a little coming and going like what's going on here?And you can hear more all about all of that if you want to listen to the 26rather too long podcasts you can go to anchor.fm slash jaunt spelt j a u n t andThank you to the I think it's three people who listen to it. There's one personI've listened to pretty much all of them. It was AngusAndrew Herring as he used to be known. Hello Angus. Have you listening? And when I got back I slept for like14-15 hours I wasI'm better now, but for about a week. I was just achingYes, you're not as young as you used to be but I'd like to do more trips to try and get my strength up on that and try andWork on that because if I do it on you once a year then I don't really get into the fitness for itAnd also I want to do a much longer trip. I'll do a month trip or everAnd so we have to build it up. I think maybe not do as much walkingI tried I tried doing the White Nothe toDurdle Door on the third day or second day during the heatwave. That was very sillySo you need to kind of ease into it. Maybe a bit less walking and more restingBecause you know take the longer view, but yeah, the idea is that I want to go to France or Greece next year andJust paint and drawCheaply as possibleCamnping and draw something different than cliffs and trees and rivers for onceSo enough of me talking about my holidays my Hollibob's hate that phraseWe've got a kind of quite busy show. So I'm gonna get on with it. It's gonna be a mixture of stuffIt might be a little bit more about Queens and KingsAnd then there's gonna be a fair amount of drum and bass because we have the drum and bass challenge and the crumple bangersdiscord set byDunproofin so there's a few things that and a few thingselsewhere and then we go to a more indie section and then a mix of Indian damp tempo right at the endBut it's like three or fourMissed sets of challenges so far. I was listening to mostly before I left because actually I didn't listen to musicThis is the weird thing. This is the reason why how it's taking me so long. I got back about10 days ago 11 days agoThe reason why it took so long to do this podcast is because I wasn't listening to music. This is the weirdest thing about the whole trip. IJust didn't listen to music and I did a bitBut mostly I didn't and that's unusual usually I really do listen to music all the timeWhen I'm working and painting and that was a sort of a shiftI think possibly because I didn't have to avoid cars so much. I wasn't using music to block everything out. This is why IRealized this in Venice many years ago. I use music to block the city outNot necessarily a good habit, but it's the way it does to block people and the craziness of city living outSo as I get out of that, I don't have to have that shield of music to keep me sane. Not sure what I'm sayingBut you know to keep some semblance of sanitySo anyway, this is trust and obey by little Marcy. Oh, yes, we're gonna go thereAnd that was two tracks from two French bootleggersThat was Totom with Susie Cool GurengeI don't know how to pronounce that, Gurenge, GurengeThat's Boney M Daddy Cool versus Creedence Clearwater Revival with Susie QA track I like a lotWasn't that used in Apocalypse Now?I was connecting my head with Apocalypse NowI think it was in the section where they're doing the concertIn the forest with the womenVersus LiSa, I don't know, LiSaLI, capital S a, I don't know who that isThat's not a challenge mash-upTotom did win the general base challenge mash-upWith a good general base mash-upWhich didn't fit in the mix hereBut not with the collaboration with DJ NonoWhich we'll get to in a bitBut that was one of his recent releasesAnd I really, really like thatThat's one of the best things he's done recentlyI missed it when it was first releasedMaybe about a month agoI mean, most things I've missed because I've been awayAnd then before that we had DJ ZebraThe track which apparently dated June 2022That's Bootle ShakeKing Gizzard And The Lizard WizardVersus Black Sabbath, Versus SupremeNTM, Versus Fatman Scoop it says hereBut also, I hear a few other thingsLike a bit of Dead Pres in thereThere are other things in thereBut I like the mix of King GizzardAnd Paranoid by Black SabbathThat's wonderfulAnd also, interestingly, Drum and Bass TempoSo, he worked very well with DLRAnd Staying Up Late Making MusicThat is the name of the trackWhich I think is brilliantI'm staying up late recording a podcastIt's only two in the morning on a SaturdaySo, yeahI've done that many a timeBut I like thatI don't always go for the more sparse drum and bassI hate to say avant-garde, drum and bassSort of out thereThis is a P word, progressiveBut that was on some playlistI was looking on YouTubeSomeone had done a playlistThat was the releases of this monthAnd I heard thatI was like, yes, pleaseAnd then before that, we had DJ UseoWith Heroes of the Story UpstairsThat's Sparks, Versus EmileAnd Sinuhe NavarrateI don't know how you pronounce thatAnd I love that greatI don't know the Sparks trackAnd I don't know the other trackIt's one of the few times I've played somethingI don't know why the bit, but this sounds goodIt just sounds insane in a good wayAnd sounds…The kind of Sparks insanity thatIt's hard in a mash-up to reflectIt's hard to use Sparks, actuallyBecause Sparks, like…A lot of 70s pop peopleDid work with some very strange chordsSome very strange rhythms, strangenessAnd the music varies in tempoSo that's the reason whyThere aren't that many mash-ups of the Town AintBig Enough For Both of UsEven there's a brilliant pop trackBut the tempo varies all over the placeAnd I think, yeah, harmoniesSo, yeahBut that works really wellI don't know if that's recent SparksBecause I've kind of lostTouchless Sparks for a minuteBut, yeah, that I like a lotAnd again, drum based tempoEven though I'm alternatingIt's a bit like double speedI used to do this a lot on the podcastDrop into a dub trackAnd go back to drum basedAnd drop into a rock track of a similar speedYou know, sort of keep going between themAnd flip-flopping because it's kind of interestingWhat works and whatThis is like the old mixingBecause I usually nowadays try and harmonically mix everythingBut I can tell youThe Bootle Snake and the DLRAre not in the same keyNot even remotely in the same keyBut it kind of worked against each otherAnti-harmonic mixingSometimes you have to break the rulesAnd then before thatBreaking the rules with the mixing nowWe have CastleR with Everyone Wants to LieThat DJ ShadowAnd Run the Jewels versus MuseVersus 30 Seconds to MarsYes, me with the 30 Seconds to MarsBootleg with MY reputationJared LetoYes, and I love thatNot only because it's at the right tempoRun the Jewels, there aren't that many Run the Jewels mashupsThat's Nobody SpeaksAnd yeah, I plus seven'd thatWhich is a bit annoying butIt works really well, I think what CastleR did wasSlow down the Run the Jewels to workThis is what you're supposed to doI'm not criticising them because this is what you're supposed to doYou're supposed to…What's the wanky phrase?Respect the instrumentalThat's what you're supposed to doRespect the instrumentalWhich in Crumpl is complete fucking bollocksAnd also generally mashups completeRespect nothing in musicThere's no point in respecting music in that wayBecause otherwise you won't be able to do anything with itBecause you spend time worrying that you're going to fuck it upSo no, I hate that phraseRespect the instrumentalYou're supposed to keep the instrumentalThe right BPM whatever and then you alter theVocals BPM or key to fitFor a variety of technical reasonsWhich are too boring to go into hereBut sometimesEspecially if it's a hip hop vocalIt's a very temporal vocalIt has to hit certain thingsPeople expect a certain speedIt's actually better to speed up the instrumentalI know some people disagree with itBut they're wrongIt is usually best not to do thatBecause it sounds really odd to have the sped up instrumentalAnd maybe if you know that track really wellYou were like cringing on thatBut I don't know those tracksSo I was like this sounds alright to meRock can speed upRock can go fast like thisOr I don't usually teach youThings plus 7 on TractorBut yeah, it seemed to workAnd then before that we hadAggro1 withRed Hot Chili Peppers, CalifornicationVersus Spor, let me beAnd I, oh yeah, Spor mashupsHello SporYeah, I'm thereOh Aggro1 specialises in thoseDirty Evil drama based mashupsAnd it's been started making them againWhich is really goodAnd have amazingly descriptiveTitlesSo the next one is also about Aggro1But with their Angels and FilthTM monikerAnd that's Green Day versus Unknown ErrorAnd again Unknown ErrorOne of DJ Nono's most famousInfamous dreadedMashups is with Unknown ErrorThere's a bit of Unknown ErrorIn the scary Xmas mashupAndBig fan of Unknown ErrorAgain, a lot of peopleHave mashed and triedThat Green Day songI walk alone, I think that'sFor American Idiot isn't itI think it is, a lot of people have mashed itA lot of people have failedAnd I like what they're doing thereEspecially with warping the vocals to fitAnd stushing them and dropping them and notAgain, don't respect the acapella eitherMess with it, but you knowReally, really break all the rulesIf it works, break it, break it, break it, break it, break itOh my god, Beavis and ButtheadI've not seen that yetBut I love the fact that, as the world goes to shitAs we get fascism 2.0 probablyBeavia and ButtheadCome backYes, I'm all for thatIt's like 90's, 80'sAll over againWith some 70's runningThen before the Angels and FilthWe had, we had4AM KruI love 4AM KruAnd ShantaeWith Good Thing RemixThat is a brilliant trackMeans a lot to me and alsoIt's just brilliantOld school, proper jungleEven though it's new, but jungleProper jungleYeah, make Hari Krishna a bad boyThen before that we hadDJToNomNomYou might say who's DJToNomNomThat's DJNoNoAnd ToTomAnd DJNoNo might have been alsoWeirdly, at the same time on aWalking holiday, just like meThat's a bit funnyAnd so DJNoNo couldn'tWork in the challengeAnd workedWith ToTon overInterwebsTo do a version of something whichDJNoNo planned a long time agoBut never made, which is aMashup ofEngelbert HumperdinckDrum and Bass styleAnd so, ToTom foundA few tracks that worked with thatDJNoNoKeyed in a lot of the tracksWhich Dunproofin likedVia meBecause I listened to Dunproofin'sTwitch streams a lot, so I had a rough ideaOf what kind of things he was intoHence the High ContrastBut it works really well, that's the second versionThere was a disagreement about which versionTo release, to release both of themEngeltrast HighperdinckPart 2, but the Part 1 is brilliant as wellThat one's a little bit moreJungly, the Part 1Is moreWhat Instamatic has been doing withContrasting different vocalsSo it's kind of weird, one isDefinitely in spirit more DJNoNoStyle, and the other oneIsWorks better, which is that oneBut sounds less DJNoNoIt's a weird oneYeah, it was a weird oneOh and it didn't win the competitionEither, it didn't even feature in the topThingamajigs, you know, soBooThen before that we had Worm DayMe neitherSo that is Worm DayOr from Worm Day's channelAnd that's ObeyThat a cover of aCrusher P trackBut that's using the Lady ParsecVoice in ChipspeechAnd there's a whole load of thesePeople taking Vocaloid or whateverAnd redone this ObeyBut it might not be so obvious in that versionFortunately original was releasedVia the Big Bad, so I don't want to play itAnd you can probably work out the vocalsMore in that, but yeah go andGoogle it on the YouTubesLook at the lyrics, they're very pertinentTo the whole themeAnd then before that we hadLittle Marcy, oh yes Little MarcyWith Trust in ObeyIt was funny becauseWhen I heard the Trust in ObeyI was like I have to play thisBut I really wanted to playSomething from They LiveBut as far as I knowThey don't actually mention the word ObeyIt just appears on the billboardsSo then I was like what else is a bayAnd I found a few things and I was likeI found that was like perfectAnd then found out that it was from the bigEvil Corp and then I found covers of itThese millions of covers that went perfectAnd then we all justI thought what was that for a cover thenThat's what I'd do when I find a trackBy the big corporateThat will not be namedSo Orbital came back withThe 30th Anniversary album30 something which I played recentlyAnd I think it wasDunproofin hit me to thisWhich is from theMary Anne Hobbs Live Radio set they didThey took a certain 90's girl groupAnd then did a very goodRave versionI thinkAnd that was The Bad ShepherdsAnarchy in the UKA cover of the Sex Pistols trackFrom 2010From their By Hook or By Crook albumIt turns out the best coverOf Anarchy in the UKI've probably heard something likeAdrian EdmondsonI love thatI love how it has thisCeltic Arabic droneAnd it's hopeful but alsoThey do a version of God Save the QueenMy child was played butThat seemed to be more comedyAnd I had that with the NeilAnd it's a good versionTheir version is very good to go intoA traditional tune called Mountain RoadAnd it is a bit of a mashupSo I will play it on a future podcastBut that expresses how I feelAnd that section is very personalSo before thatWe had ImaginationImagination is myThe first disco I ever heard was ImaginationJust An IllusionAlong with Funky TownAnd a few othersThis crack end of discoBut I will always defend ImaginationAnd LeeeJohn and allEveryone involved with itBrilliant bandsInspired HouseThe track called BurningAnd Frankie Knuckles says that's what inspired themTo make house musicSo Frankie Knuckles says itIt's trueThat and Your Woman are very much aboutWhat's going on in my personal lifeAt the momentAnd before that we had Grove with Fuck Your Land LordI put it in here anywayBefore all of the Queenie stuffI was listening to it and going, oh off with your headThere's a link there as wellBut I was actually putting it inBecause it seemed to contrast quite wellWith the Goldfrapp and the Your WomanMusically, we'll play off with each otherAnd yeah, that's from2021And that'sQueer and Black EP from GroveReally good Check Out Grove on BandcampI haven't been saying when these are coming outReally because actually the frontAs I show, apart from the Little MarcyWhich is 671967Everything else was 2022I was lucky thinkingThe Neil was 1984And the little Marcy with everything else is newBut now we're getting off-pisteWe're going into theOlder, more eclectic, more downbeat stuffSoWe're going into theHibidragonsYeah, we got Your Womanby Fake SharkA very funky cover from 2020And then we hadFrom 2000Kind of that was 22 years agoWe hadUK GirlsBecause of the sad death ofOlivia Newton-JohnI had to mark thatThat and another track are my little markersIt's weirdThis podcast has gone through so many versionsThe only things in the 371 vaultwere Olivia Newton-John thingsAnd then suddenly we got this Truss stuffAnd then the Queen stuffAnd yeah, it suddenly becomes a very big podcastAnd I've got to say, oh I was sayingThe White Town, which was a track beforeAgain, we sort of turnedWeFlipped between White TownThat's Your Woman the Dolby Anol RemixKind of a cover reallyFrom 2009And yeah, Your Woman is 25 years oldI didn't realise this untilI started researching itIt came round on myiPod and I was saying this trackJust kind of sums upIt's weird because at the time I heard itI was coming out or I had just come outAnd I've mentioned this on previous podcastsHow Your WomanMeans a lot to me because of theLyric, a man singingYou're such a handsome charming manI used to sing that loudly when I was on the radioWhat I didn't realise is thatIt is queerBut Jyoti MishraWho is White TownSaid that it comes from several anglesThe chorus is from the protagonist or one pointAnd then you've got the other pointSo they're actually different viewpointsAnd the same songAnd apparently it was written becauseHe was in a Marxist Orthodox Marxist groupAnd he fell in love with a lesbian in that groupAnd so henceI can never be Your WomanBecause you fancy women, so I can never be Your WomanAnd then she'sResponding with the handsome manBut it's your genes, you don't understandSo it's that sort of miscommunicationIt's a very clever song, very cleverBut also he said as wellThat actually it was meant to be vagueThe idea of it sung by a manWas supposed to be very sweetWhen he heard the Your Woman, the AlbolyIs very, very misogynisticSo he's flipping that on his head by taking a sampleFrom a track which is very misogynisticThen using a song which isn'tAnd he's blurring the whole gender thingBut he said that it was intentionalThat it was a very sort of sweet songWith a very catchy sampleHe knew it would go somewhere with thatSo he decided to put a lyric on itThat was really blurringTo get away with itSo you've got that thing about a man singingAbout it can never be Your WomanYou don't know if it's a gay manOr what's going on with that songSo it was queer but not necessarilyIn the way I was thinkingBut it's supposed to be vagueAnd it's supposed to be from all as you point scaleStraight or whateverHe was saying how people writeAbout the idealised relationshipsOf people but don't actually talk about the realitiesSo it's a brilliant songAnd Dolby and all after ScottishDJsAnd talking of DJsWe had Orbital with SpiceyThe live ripped from the Marianne Hobbes mixThey didTo promote their 30-something compilationAnd I don't know if they ever released thatI wish they wouldSeriously, it is brilliantBut I don't know if they get permission fromThe Spice Girls to do soIt's a really good remixSo we're now going back to the mashupsFor a minuteAnd I've really been diggingThe mashups of someone whoIs, what's he known on Discord as?He's not knownHere he's known as PinkHairMashupsBut onDiscordHe's on the current man of DiscordI think he'sCorby or CorbjornThere was a challengeWhich I will battle setWhich wasA track with three thingsBut there's three thingsTogether, like a team ofA video gameAnd PinkHairMashups choseThree songs about summerAnd so this isCool, sad summer nightsAnd seriously, if anyone works with Lana Del ReyAnd Demi LovatoThen I'm very much sureThat she's still, but this is brilliantThat was split back by Sad Night Dynamite. I love that. I love a production on Sad NightDynamite's work. That's from their last album, Volume 2 from 2022. And then before that we hada tribute, the second tribute to Olivia Newton-John. That's love song, a lovely bit of psychedelic pop.Do you mind not know about? I didn't know how to know about. I obviously knew her more famous workin Graease and not the country, the film. And Xanadu, that's a mad film Xanadu. Working withELO and covering Dylan, If Not For You, which that's from the album, Nice to Do One. Namedafter that was her first real hit really. Not massive hit, but a hit. But yes, very psychedelic,very early 70s. Very lovely. And then before that we had Tinder Sticks with a cover of PavementsHere from the BBC Sessions from 2007. Because it's the BBC version, not the version that wasreleased on a certain label, which is actually Island, which might be a certain big bad evilcompany owns. But I think sure when they did that, where there was late 90s, early 2000s. And yeah,Tinder sticks make it more mournful, but I love the first lyric of that. I was dressed for success,but success it never came. Your jokes are always bad. Those bits are just all the best songs inthe 90s. Very strangely, you don't really know what it's about. But it just seemed to express thatsort of slacker, lost generation mood. Then before that, we had Habib with Marde Tanhaye Shab,which I probably know what's wrong, Iranian song from, well, pre-revolution, so pre-79,I think it's late 70s, 78, 77 or something like that. And that, I know, I was looking attranslations of the lyrics. I thought it was, there's no way did we look about his mother,which I think I've played previously. It's not that one. That's the called The Lonely Man of theNight. When the lyrics sort of translation goes, I'm the lonely man of the night, a seal of silenceon my lips. I've left lonely and sad, have lost hope in everybody, alone and lonely, sad andinfamous. I'm the lonely one, the one without a tomorrow. I am the lonely man of the night, a sealof silence on my lips. Yeah, then it goes on very similar mode, but it's a really beautiful,really beautiful song. I love the synth backing, which is unusual for Arabic songs of that time.Not totally unusual, but you know, it's just kind of shows you what was in Iran before therevolution and that was all destroyed. It's sad, very sad. There was a wealth of music there.Then before that, we had Oki with Christina versus Pink Floyd. That's the title.Is anybody out there versus Hurt. What's it really about? Linda Perry's father had died. I don't usually tell youthis, but there's usually a mashup or a song which was supposed to be the key song of this podcastwould be Your Woman by Whitetown. But kind of situations changed and it's one of them,but the main one has to be that mashup by Alan Hurley, Meeting In The Woods, Taylor Swift versusRadiohead. There's usually one song or thing that sums up the whole podcast. Not always,but usually there's a thing that's just like, that's the point. This is the fulcrum where the wholeof it rotates around. That's that track. For personal reasons, just emotionally, that's the kind ofsentiment I wanted to say, really, in that. And that is the winner of the Deep Cut challenge,which Totom set in the Crumplbangers Discord deservedly. I mean, it's meeting in the aisleversus out of the woods. And those two go so well together, like they were meant to betogether. So it's an amazing mashup. But also, the mood of, there's like a queasy mood of arelationship gone awry and the whole things going kind of slightly out of sync, looking back to whenit seemed to be finer, but it was just a vain attempt. That is a bit like Your Woman, a goodassessment of what really relationships are like outside the Moon-June shit. Then before that,we had Chocomang, another Radiohead mashup. They seem to dwell well together. That'shere's where my Iron Lung ends. The Sundays, here's where the story ends, one of my favorite songs ofall time, versus Radiohead's Iron Lung. I didn't know. I really loved Iron Lung. I think I'vegot it on CD single. It's actually about Creep. It's about the fact they hated their song so much.And that's how the lyrics about, you know, here's a new song, you won't like it.You know, here's a new podcast, you won't like it. I totally get that. And the fact that you canhave some success in one thing all one time. And then everyone expects you to repeat it again andagain. It becomes a millstone around their neck, which is what happened with Creep. And they gotpast it. Yeah, it's screwed Thom Yorke up and it ended up for a while. And that's by Chocomangfrom 2018. I've got to say, the Oki mashup was from 2009. I thought it was a new mashup whenyou played it on Crumplstock. I asked him to send it to me because it was like, what is thismashup? This is brilliant. And it's like, oh, no, it's true that it's an old one. And I reallythink Okie should have blurred his old stuff. And then before that, we had one of mine, a rare oneof mine. Well, not rare until now, but I'm on hiatus at the moment, has Instamatic with Fight forYour Love, H.E.R. Her versus Whitesnake. I like what I did with Whitesnake that that was forAdriana's challenge. She had a challenge, which I played propane nightmare from DJ Nono, the lastpodcast, but she had a hair metal challenge. But I wanted, I was going to fit it in into the podcast,but I was like, no, it didn't seem to fit. But I was gutted because actually it's one of themashups I'm most proud of in recent times, because the Whitesnake is so different in that form.And it shows the fact that David Coverdale came from a soul roots. He came from a verydifference of blues. It was in deep purple. So it's got that different bluesy backing and itworks, it works. And so that's Iziz Love versus her fight for you from the Fred Hampton movie,Judas and the Black Messiah. But I like the fact a lot of my recent mashups have been aboutrevolution and have worked that in resistance, not so subtly or sometimes more subtly. And Ilike that's in there as well. It's sort of working against itself in a way, because it seems to bea song saying Iziz Love, you know, and then but you've got the fight for you, which is ostensiblyabout relationship, but actually is about revolution. So yeah, you've got this contradictiongoing on, which I think I pretty much perfected recently. I think it sounds very arrogant,but I think I really got that that seemed to be working. But at the moment, I when I got backfor the Jaunt working all day, I just like I'm surprised to be recording this. I got to hispoint was like, I think I can't do any I just didn't want to do any mashups. I didn't want to do anypodcasts. And the podcast has sort of come to me, but the mashups haven't. And we don't we'll see,did you know no has done one? But I don't know whether I can do any more. I don't know. It'sfor a while. It's a time for a rest. It's an exhausting time. And then before that, we hadPinkhairmashups with cool sad summer nights as Cassie Steele versus Lana Del Rey versus DemiLovato. I know the two of the track, I don't know the Cassie Steele. And yeah, I like that sort ofSamba. And I think they apologize that they couldn't get a good enough instrumental for the backing,but I do quite like I know PDS has talked about this. I actually quite like the fact that it'ssort of quite rough. And it's quite, you know, a bit like those optigan loops, the old sampling,the records you get in the old organs are all crackly. I quite like that it's a Samba,but it's warped. It's not right, not sounding really right. But yeah, I quite like that feelingof just like your wonkyness. But yes, you know, otherwise it works perfectly. I have to sayCrawl for the Summer is not an easy track to wear with. I've done that. That was on theSummer Booty compilation, the one with Gremlins theme. So I reached the end of the podcast.Finally, it's been a long one. And it's going to be a nightmare to edit, I think.And yeah, I hope you're all well. I said, I'm not sure when I'm going to do another one of these.You know, it's going to be very much played by mood for the nextmonth or two. And also there's a possibility I might go back out again. So to finish the walk.I don't know. I did that last year and it all went a bit wrong, but I've got better gear this time.So I might be all right. And I'm not going to try and use a wood stove, which is there is a point,and this might sound terrible, but there is a point of where you try to do everything completelyultralight or everything completely ecologically, and it fails horribly. Because there is a limitto what you can do. You can't do everything you can do. You can walk somewhere useful to transportgray and you can, you know, and try and be as green as possible. But yeah, picking up twigsand then trying to burn them for your dinner doesn't work unless you pick up literally hundredsand thousands of twigs. They burn too quickly. And yeah, I had problems on that jaunt too.So I'm aware of that this time. And also I'm aware of how rude the people in Weymouth can be.I've now got dehydrator. So I'm now dehydrating my own jerky and I've done a bunch of mushrooms andeventually I'll do my meals. So that's all going well. Either they'll be ready for next year,early next year, or for this year if I go out again. So yeah, plans are afoot around the artwork andthings to do with them, which if you list the jaunts, the podcast you would know more about.But yeah, there are a few things I'm planning to do. And so I think that's why I am going to bepossibly a bit sporadic with the podcast. I think I will keep up with the podcast, but you know,it might be less regular. Mashups may not be because I've been releasing so many for thechallenges. And it's just got this point where it's, you know, if you check out my blog, youprobably wouldn't know that. But if you go to Sowndhaus, Sowndhaus.com, it's about the SH,S-O-W-N-D-H-A-U-S. So how's the German? And then look for Tim B, or Instamatic, or DJNoNo,you will see lots of tracks. I need to post them up on my blog. But yeah, I was doing severala week for many weeks and it was just got this point where I was like, I felt like it was a bitof churning them out. But I think I got a lot better doing it. It was a good thing to do. Ithink I'm very proud of what I've done. But yeah, I think we need to focus on things now.So anyway, I'm gonna play out with two tracks. One from the new Braxe and DJ Falcon EP. I didn'tknow that Alan Braxe was, I think this cousin is DJ Falcon. So they've done an EP together calledStep by Step. And I'm not so fond of the radio main version, but I really, really like the bonusbeat version, which is much more the kind of French touch sort of dreamy thing you'd expect fromDJ Falcon and Alan Braxe. So this is Step by Step bonus beat featuring Panda Bear. And then afterwardswe've got, because they seem to work well together, we've got Tresspasser's William with their cover ofRainbow Connection another track I've been keeping back from the Sing Me To SleepIndie Lullaby's compilation from 2010. So I'll speak to you soon.Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?I'm going to scrap all this. Scrap all this. Scrap all this. We can't do it.
