RC 389: Ghosts

A ghostly ‘not halloween’ edition of Radio Clash, more Halloween -adjacent than the plastic chinese proxy-Xmas junkfest that Halloween has become. Ghosts of Xmas Capitalism…



So we have songs about ghosts, existence, falling out of planes, dark paths, a trance cover of Wendy Carlos, a hard house cover of Somewhere Over The Radio, feminist queer punk, proto-vapourwave, silly songs about vegetables and whales, ghosts and their swimmng pools, cranes, Beach Boys singing Nine Inch Nails, indie, jungle, rave, ambient, pop, electronica….



So the usual really!

00:15:17.880 –> 00:15:20.160 Hello, welcome to Radio Clash.



00:15:20.160 –> 00:15:24.200 I managed to wrest the podcast away from the robots, the Ghosts in The Machine.



00:15:24.200 –> 00:15:25.880 Nice to take over.



00:15:25.880 –> 00:15:31.400 It’s 389 and it’s called Ghosts as the AI voices said.



00:15:31.400 –> 00:15:36.000 Yeah, that was because there was four tracks I wanted to play as the intro track.



00:15:36.000 –> 00:15:39.600 And so I thought, well, why don’t I play all four of them?



00:15:39.600 –> 00:15:40.520 At least two of them.



00:15:40.520 –> 00:15:47.840 You’re not supposed to start with a downtempo track, but the fact that it was so queer left field choices.



00:15:47.840 –> 00:15:54.440 Most of those, yeah, it seemed to fit, especially for a not Halloween episode of Radio Clash.



00:15:54.440 –> 00:15:58.160 It’s Halloween adjacent, hence called Ghosts.



00:15:58.160 –> 00:16:01.920 You won’t be hearing Monster Mash or Thriller or Ghostbusters.



00:16:01.920 –> 00:16:07.800 Yay, or Dragula or any of those because I’m just tired of Halloween.



00:16:07.800 –> 00:16:12.000 I’m tired of it becoming the spooky Christmas, commercial.



00:16:12.000 –> 00:16:19.760 Even though DJNoNo did do a surprise Halloween mashup with Taylor Swift.



00:16:19.760 –> 00:16:26.480 He’s a bit of a Swifty versus Spooky Ccary Skeletons Skellingtons by Andrew Gold.



00:16:26.480 –> 00:16:27.480 No, I don’t know.



00:16:27.480 –> 00:16:31.520 A drum and bass remix of that, especially for Adriana because she was saying how much she



00:16:31.520 –> 00:16:36.200 didn’t like spooky scary skeletons, but how they weren’t enough mashups of Haunted.



00:16:36.200 –> 00:16:40.240 But we’re not playing on this podcast either.



00:16:40.240 –> 00:16:45.120 This podcast is very much about defying expectation, especially for Halloween show.



00:16:45.120 –> 00:16:50.120 So that was Max Tundra with This Woman’s Work, which is a recent release from this year.



00:16:50.120 –> 00:16:52.320 I heard it on Don Letts’ show.



00:16:52.320 –> 00:16:53.720 I don’t know exactly when it was released.



00:16:53.720 –> 00:16:56.480 I think it’s released in the last month or so.



00:16:56.480 –> 00:16:57.480 Similarly, M(h)aol.



00:16:57.480 –> 00:17:04.360 We’ve played M(h)aol M Brackets H AOL before on this podcast.



00:17:04.360 –> 00:17:10.920 And they recently released an album called Attachment Styles, and that’s Bisexual Anxiety.



00:17:10.920 –> 00:17:12.920 And there’s not enough bisexual music.



00:17:12.920 –> 00:17:15.120 There’s not enough bi-pride on this podcast.



00:17:15.120 –> 00:17:16.960 So putting that right.



00:17:16.960 –> 00:17:20.720 Good how someone talk about that stuff because they seem to get it from both sides and not



00:17:20.720 –> 00:17:21.920 in a good way.



00:17:21.920 –> 00:17:25.320 Then before that, we had One Oh Trix Point Never with A Barely Lit Path.



00:17:25.320 –> 00:17:26.320 I love the album.



00:17:26.320 –> 00:17:30.840 It’s an album called Again, which was recently released apparently about his 40 year old



00:17:30.840 –> 00:17:35.400 self talking to his 20 year old self or his younger self.



00:17:35.400 –> 00:17:37.800 And the video is amazing.



00:17:37.800 –> 00:17:42.400 It seems to be a child as well because it’s got two car crash dummies, but they’re riding



00:17:42.400 –> 00:17:44.840 the back of the car and they’re not in control of where they’re going.



00:17:44.840 –> 00:17:46.760 It goes all very psychedelic.



00:17:46.760 –> 00:17:50.480 But I think there’s a lot of existential stuff in that track.



00:17:50.480 –> 00:17:55.920 Lots of things about the Barely Lit Path and not really knowing anything and you know,



00:17:55.920 –> 00:17:56.920 path to your house.



00:17:56.920 –> 00:18:01.360 You don’t know his childhood or talking about the barely lit path through life.



00:18:01.360 –> 00:18:03.200 Then we had a bit of a riff.



00:18:03.200 –> 00:18:07.400 Riffusion is an AI music generator where you can create your own songs.



00:18:07.400 –> 00:18:10.920 They’re all like 11 seconds, but they’re brilliant for jingles.



00:18:10.920 –> 00:18:15.560 So you will hear not more in this podcast, but in future you might hear some of those



00:18:15.560 –> 00:18:16.560 popping up.



00:18:16.560 –> 00:18:18.000 But I’m not a big thing on jingles.



00:18:18.000 –> 00:18:22.360 I have to say I did a whole load of them and I was like Tim, you don’t play many jingles



00:18:22.360 –> 00:18:23.360 on the podcast.



00:18:23.360 –> 00:18:24.360 I’m very anti-jingle.



00:18:24.360 –> 00:18:28.800 But anyway, I found it bizarre because it was like some avant-garde kids thing that



00:18:28.800 –> 00:18:29.800 one.



00:18:29.800 –> 00:18:32.960 Then before that we had Help Me I’m Gay by Lambrini Girls.



00:18:32.960 –> 00:18:35.240 I’ve been really digging Lambrini Girls.



00:18:35.240 –> 00:18:38.680 Just a new EP, their first EP called You’re Welcome.



00:18:38.680 –> 00:18:39.680 They are brilliant.



00:18:39.680 –> 00:18:41.520 Then 6Music, but that was Iggy Pop.



00:18:41.520 –> 00:18:44.640 Iggy Pop’s been playing them and that was the first one.



00:18:44.640 –> 00:18:47.480 I was like, wow, yes, I like that.



00:18:47.480 –> 00:18:50.200 I like that a lot.



00:18:50.200 –> 00:18:54.760 Apparently the lead singer wasn’t out to her mum when she first did that and her mum was



00:18:54.760 –> 00:18:55.760 in the audience.



00:18:55.760 –> 00:18:57.240 She had to quickly come out.



00:18:57.240 –> 00:19:00.440 I think she came out to her mum on stage and said, “Hi, mum, I’m gay.”



00:19:00.440 –> 00:19:02.440 Then went into it.



00:19:02.440 –> 00:19:04.440 Apparently everything was fine.



00:19:04.440 –> 00:19:08.240 Then we had another of those very strange…



00:19:08.240 –> 00:19:12.280 I was doing stuff like trying to do country polka.



00:19:12.280 –> 00:19:16.320 I came up with this concept of Xylophone Rock, accordion rock.



00:19:16.320 –> 00:19:18.120 That’s the kind of things I was doing.



00:19:18.120 –> 00:19:19.880 So yeah, there was a little jingle there.



00:19:19.880 –> 00:19:22.200 Then in the start from There I Ruined It.



00:19:22.200 –> 00:19:26.520 Also AI generated that’s the Beach Boys Sing Hurt, Hurtin USA.



00:19:26.520 –> 00:19:31.720 That’s the Beach Boys Singing Nine Inch Nails, which I like a lot.



00:19:31.720 –> 00:19:35.920 Now we go on to the track that actually I was planning to start before I came across



00:19:35.920 –> 00:19:36.920 those other tracks.



00:19:36.920 –> 00:19:38.440 So it’s a bit of a false start.



00:19:38.440 –> 00:19:41.640 A bit of a spooky, spooky false start.



00:19:41.640 –> 00:19:42.840 The Hidden Door.



00:19:42.840 –> 00:19:47.640 This is JARV IS… and I haven’t seen what this is from.



00:19:47.640 –> 00:19:49.280 This is from This Is Going to Hurt.



00:19:49.280 –> 00:19:51.480 The series performed from the…



00:19:51.480 –> 00:19:52.920 I suppose diaries or the book.



00:19:52.920 –> 00:19:55.800 This is Going to Hurt by Adam Kay.



00:19:55.800 –> 00:20:01.040 And you might go, who’s Adam Kay, we’ve played him on the podcast long, long time ago.



00:20:01.040 –> 00:20:06.000 We played his a formed band because he was in the Amateur Transplants and we played the



00:20:06.000 –> 00:20:07.000 London Underground song.



00:20:07.000 –> 00:20:10.120 We played a few of theirs and he’s aware of that as well.



00:20:10.120 –> 00:20:13.640 I know that through a third party that he was told about the podcast.



00:20:13.640 –> 00:20:20.240 And so I’m not actually watched the series, but JARV IS…, the band run by Jarvis Cocker,



00:20:20.240 –> 00:20:21.240 did the soundtrack.



00:20:21.240 –> 00:20:25.520 I do this quite often, listen to the soundtrack and don’t watch the thing.



00:20:25.520 –> 00:20:26.720 So it’s a tad out of context.



00:20:26.720 –> 00:20:30.720 I don’t know how this was used in the series, but I love this.



00:20:30.720 –> 00:20:33.240 It’s a bit like Cunts Are Running The World.



00:20:33.240 –> 00:20:35.360 He says everything I’d like to say at the moment.



00:20:35.360 –> 00:20:37.360 So this is Fuck This.



00:52:21.120 –> 00:52:22.880 That’s Michael the DJ.



00:52:22.880 –> 00:52:26.320 with Move Out of my Head.



00:52:26.320 –> 00:52:28.720 Billy Joel, Anthony,



00:52:28.720 –> 00:52:33.120 versus Kylie’s, get out of my head, obviously.



00:52:33.120 –> 00:52:36.960 Now before that, we had Where’s Your Padam at?



00:52:36.960 –> 00:52:37.840 by Hallmighty.



00:52:37.840 –> 00:52:41.120 Oh, I’ve got to say that Michael the DJ is from 2021.



00:52:41.120 –> 00:52:42.320 It’s an old one.



00:52:42.320 –> 00:52:48.240 Before all of that, I don’t understand why Anthony, Billy Joel, is everywhere.



00:52:48.240 –> 00:52:50.160 It’s kind of become this meme thing.



00:52:50.160 –> 00:52:52.720 I assume TikTok is always just blame TikTok.



00:52:52.720 –> 00:52:56.640 And then we had Where’s Your Padam at?



00:52:56.640 –> 00:52:59.680 Hallmighty, Basement Jaxx versus Kylie.



00:52:59.680 –> 00:53:02.560 That’s one of his secret tracks.



00:53:02.560 –> 00:53:07.680 You have to go on a secret M(h)aoling list and knock three times and say the secret password to find



00:53:07.680 –> 00:53:08.240 that one.



00:53:08.240 –> 00:53:10.480 And then before that, we had Meatraffle.



00:53:10.480 –> 00:53:13.760 We had a Brixton link there because Basement Jaxx is South of the River.



00:53:13.760 –> 00:53:15.920 Brixton, So is Meatraffle, I think.



00:53:16.640 –> 00:53:21.920 That’s the Lovesong Industrial Complex from a Base And Superstructure, the new album.



00:53:21.920 –> 00:53:24.160 And yeah, it’s always good to hear from them.



00:53:24.160 –> 00:53:29.040 Then before that, we had Chickle, Chickle, Chickle, what Chickle?



00:53:29.040 –> 00:53:32.960 Tickle Tune Typhoon with Vega Boogie.



00:53:32.960 –> 00:53:36.800 And that’s from 1984, I think.



00:53:36.800 –> 00:53:38.400 Yep, from Circle Around.



00:53:38.400 –> 00:53:46.320 And Tickle Tune Typhoon, an interesting group of people who did



00:53:46.560 –> 00:53:49.600 well, it’s kind of kid’s tunes, but it’s kind of Wiggles Before the Wiggles.



00:53:49.600 –> 00:53:51.200 They were doing that kind of thing.



00:53:51.200 –> 00:53:57.360 And Danny Deardorff, who we have played before in Danny and Joyce on this podcast.



00:53:57.360 –> 00:53:58.800 Remember a track called Stars?



00:53:58.800 –> 00:54:00.800 If you’ve heard it once, you’ll never forget it.



00:54:00.800 –> 00:54:06.560 I did a deep dive because someone posted that cover of the album, Ma La Lady, or



00:54:06.560 –> 00:54:07.520 given it in a wheelchair.



00:54:07.520 –> 00:54:09.840 It’s something we made fun about in malady, obviously.



00:54:09.840 –> 00:54:15.920 He went on to have quite a successful music career, opened many a time for Seals and Croft.



00:54:16.320 –> 00:54:22.800 Did a duo with… Danny and Joseph after Danny and Joyce, because after he left his first wife,



00:54:22.800 –> 00:54:25.200 then was in Tickle Typhoon with a lot of other people.



00:54:25.200 –> 00:54:29.840 Though he’s not on that track, but you will hear a track with Danny Deardorff later on.



00:54:29.840 –> 00:54:31.120 That was Vega Boogie.



00:54:31.120 –> 00:54:32.800 You don’t get many raps to vegetables.



00:54:32.800 –> 00:54:36.320 Then before that, we had Sank, with Is It In?



00:54:36.320 –> 00:54:39.520 You Should Be Dancing, Jimmy ‘Bo’ Horne versus Bee Gees.



00:54:39.520 –> 00:54:41.760 That got in because there’s been so many Bee Gees mashups.



00:54:41.760 –> 00:54:44.240 So not so many Jimmy ‘Bo’ Horne and it’s rude.



00:54:44.800 –> 00:54:45.520 And I like it.



00:54:45.520 –> 00:54:48.720 And I like to mix in with children’s tunes, as you do.



00:54:48.720 –> 00:54:54.400 Then before that, we had Jacana People, another new track called Twist Forever.



00:54:54.400 –> 00:54:58.800 I think Jacana People are Serbian house electronic producers,



00:54:58.800 –> 00:55:01.040 featuring Antony Szmierek.



00:55:01.040 –> 00:55:02.560 It’s always good to hear from him.



00:55:02.560 –> 00:55:07.840 And I seem to work with this sort of getting lost deep vibe from the previous track,



00:55:07.840 –> 00:55:08.880 which is Lost in the Deep.



00:55:08.880 –> 00:55:10.480 The Lost Art of Rolling in the Deep.



00:55:10.480 –> 00:55:13.520 Adele versus Queens of the Stone Age by me Instamatic.



00:55:13.520 –> 00:55:14.800 I’d forgotten about that mashup.



00:55:14.800 –> 00:55:18.000 Have to say thank you to Will Battle.



00:55:18.000 –> 00:55:21.920 iWillBattle for reminding me because he played on his Twitch show,



00:55:21.920 –> 00:55:23.520 Mashups Rock, which is on Tuesdays.



00:55:23.520 –> 00:55:27.040 And it was funny because the first 10, 15 was like,



00:55:27.040 –> 00:55:28.160 this is really familiar.



00:55:28.160 –> 00:55:29.520 Oh, it’s one of mine.



00:55:29.520 –> 00:55:31.840 I did it for a challenge and I completely forgot about it.



00:55:31.840 –> 00:55:34.960 And I did have it in the stack to play on the podcast, but never did.



00:55:34.960 –> 00:55:37.600 It is this year, but it’s way earlier in the year.



00:55:37.600 –> 00:55:38.560 It’s six, eight months ago.



00:55:38.560 –> 00:55:39.840 So I forget about mashups.



00:55:39.840 –> 00:55:41.040 I forget what I’ve done.



00:55:41.040 –> 00:55:46.320 And then before that, we had Big Joanie with Cranes in the Sky, Solange Knowles cover.



00:55:46.320 –> 00:55:49.120 That came out in 2020.



00:55:49.120 –> 00:55:49.600 It’s weird.



00:55:49.600 –> 00:55:53.680 Sometimes a song sells me on a band and there’s a song from them,



00:55:53.680 –> 00:55:58.080 which I’ll play right at the end, which sold me on Big Joanie because 6Music,



00:55:58.080 –> 00:56:02.720 sort of Lard, Lamacq, lots of people have been playing Big Joanie



00:56:02.720 –> 00:56:05.920 because they’re a London queer black feminist pong group.



00:56:05.920 –> 00:56:08.080 So I knew the name.



00:56:08.080 –> 00:56:10.480 I’d heard the songs, but nothing really struck me.



00:56:10.480 –> 00:56:12.720 And I heard a song which was like, wow.



00:56:12.720 –> 00:56:15.840 And then I went diving and then heard that.



00:56:15.840 –> 00:56:16.880 Oh, Cranes in the Sky.



00:56:16.880 –> 00:56:18.000 I draw a lot of cranes.



00:56:18.000 –> 00:56:21.520 It’s a bit neurodiverse and obsession with cranes.



00:56:21.520 –> 00:56:23.120 So we’re cranes.



00:56:23.120 –> 00:56:25.520 I’ll listen to a song about cranes in the sky because I like cranes.



00:56:25.520 –> 00:56:28.240 And I found out it’s a really good song.



00:56:28.240 –> 00:56:30.480 And then I was like, oh, it’s by Solange Knowles.



00:56:30.480 –> 00:56:35.040 Because I really generally don’t like Solange’s work.



00:56:35.040 –> 00:56:37.760 I appreciate what she does and she’s very talented.



00:56:37.760 –> 00:56:40.640 Her sister has to write with about 10 different people.



00:56:40.640 –> 00:56:45.920 She does write a lot of this stuff and is really interesting.



00:56:45.920 –> 00:56:52.560 But the music doesn’t really match up to the sort of indie Beyonce type thing, does it?



00:56:52.560 –> 00:56:53.360 Not really the same.



00:56:53.360 –> 00:56:56.960 But I actually really liked that video and the original song as well,



00:56:56.960 –> 00:57:01.760 because what it’s talking about about kind of like roaming around and running away from



00:57:01.760 –> 00:57:04.320 your problems and never really finding home.



00:57:04.320 –> 00:57:06.800 Yeah, of course I’d resonate with that.



00:57:06.800 –> 00:57:09.600 Then before that we had JARV IS… with Fuck This.



00:57:09.600 –> 00:57:14.320 I don’t know if they cover in that about Adam Kay leaving for comedy and



00:57:14.320 –> 00:57:16.720 jacking in his job.



00:57:16.720 –> 00:57:17.600 I think they alluded to it.



00:57:17.600 –> 00:57:18.880 But yeah, it might be about that.



00:57:18.880 –> 00:57:21.120 Or maybe it’s about consultants and the NHS.



00:57:21.120 –> 00:57:21.920 I don’t really know.



00:57:21.920 –> 00:57:23.680 I must watch it.



00:57:23.680 –> 00:57:31.920 So are you going to play a track which goes out to Lee Spoons because he mentioned it.



00:57:31.920 –> 00:57:32.800 On Blue Sky.



00:57:32.800 –> 00:57:33.920 I’m on Blue Sky.



00:57:33.920 –> 00:57:38.400 If you look on fingertrable.bsky.social.



00:57:38.400 –> 00:57:40.480 So I’m on Blue Sky.



00:57:40.480 –> 00:57:45.520 The thing taking over from Twitter because Twitter is becoming a complete dumpster fire.



00:57:45.520 –> 00:57:50.000 And he mentioned it on there and I was like, oh wow, I like this.



00:57:50.000 –> 00:57:56.000 I never realised that not only does this have apparently according to him like 23, 24 key changes in it.



00:57:56.000 –> 00:58:03.520 But also I never realised someone that had done a sort of a trance house cover of Wendy Carlos.



00:58:03.520 –> 00:58:05.680 This is The Orang Theme by Cygnus X.



01:17:37.160 –> 01:18:06.160 That was Terra Firma by Enola Gay featuring Mount Palomar.



01:18:07.160 –> 01:18:10.240 Not either band, I know very well.



01:18:10.240 –> 01:18:12.400 I went and checked them out after I heard that song.



01:18:12.400 –> 01:18:16.400 I love that song and it’s like a folk dance song.



01:18:16.400 –> 01:18:19.680 And Enola Gay are usually much more noisy and shoutier.



01:18:19.680 –> 01:18:22.000 So it’s kind of very different from what they usually do.



01:18:22.000 –> 01:18:23.000 But I like it.



01:18:23.000 –> 01:18:24.720 I like it a lot.



01:18:24.720 –> 01:18:26.400 And I heard that via Round Table.



01:18:26.400 –> 01:18:32.080 I think one of the last Lamacq Round Table because Steve Lamacq is doing one show a week.



01:18:32.080 –> 01:18:35.640 He spent last 30 odd years doing the drive time show.



01:18:35.640 –> 01:18:38.440 Obviously not on 6Music, he’s been going that long.



01:18:38.440 –> 01:18:41.080 But yeah, I’m ready one and then 6Music.



01:18:41.080 –> 01:18:42.920 And that went down very well with them.



01:18:42.920 –> 01:18:46.760 Usually things are a bit more electronic, a bit more off kilter.



01:18:46.760 –> 01:18:49.160 Don’t go down very well with the Round Table.



01:18:49.160 –> 01:18:51.440 I guess, but I did.



01:18:51.440 –> 01:18:58.720 Then before that we had Perk and Pixel Empire with Innocent Dreams from an album, a collaboration



01:18:58.720 –> 01:19:00.960 album called Matchup with Mild Sauce.



01:19:00.960 –> 01:19:04.920 Which I heard of via MixMstrStel.



01:19:04.920 –> 01:19:11.160 And that includes Flume, Burial, Fleetwood Mac, obviously Fleetwood Mac.



01:19:11.160 –> 01:19:14.280 And the Burial and Fleetwood Mac is what’s selling on me.



01:19:14.280 –> 01:19:16.880 And Morcheeba, Moog Island.



01:19:16.880 –> 01:19:17.880 Interesting compilation.



01:19:17.880 –> 01:19:22.120 The people I don’t really know apart from MixMstrStel.



01:19:22.120 –> 01:19:24.920 It’s always good to check out stuff via our mashups.



01:19:24.920 –> 01:19:25.920 Discord and the Reddit.



01:19:25.920 –> 01:19:27.920 Which I do from times to times.



01:19:27.920 –> 01:19:32.560 Before I heard the Michael the DJ track, a few other things.



01:19:32.560 –> 01:19:35.440 Then before that we had Dwarde with Forever.



01:19:35.440 –> 01:19:38.160 I have to thank Aaron for that.



01:19:38.160 –> 01:19:40.880 Paige’s brother who posted about that on his Facebook.



01:19:40.880 –> 01:19:43.240 So actually not about that, I wanted to do the tracks.



01:19:43.240 –> 01:19:45.120 And I actually preferred that one more.



01:19:45.120 –> 01:19:47.840 Because I love that Jungle meets soul vocals.



01:19:47.840 –> 01:19:48.840 I’m always a sucker for that.



01:19:48.840 –> 01:19:52.360 And I know of Dwarde via their work with Tim Reaper.



01:19:52.360 –> 01:19:56.080 And that’s from a record label called Deep Jungle.



01:19:56.080 –> 01:19:58.760 Who also re-released track before it.



01:19:58.760 –> 01:20:01.320 Which is 4AM by Orca.



01:20:01.320 –> 01:20:03.520 I don’t know if they re-released that mix.



01:20:03.520 –> 01:20:05.200 But I like that mix the best.



01:20:05.200 –> 01:20:06.600 That’s remix one.



01:20:06.600 –> 01:20:08.120 Although sometimes it’s called remix two.



01:20:08.120 –> 01:20:09.840 It’s very confusing.



01:20:09.840 –> 01:20:11.640 And that’s originally from 1993.



01:20:11.640 –> 01:20:13.640 4AM, the remixes and originals.



01:20:13.640 –> 01:20:15.200 There’s a white label.



01:20:15.200 –> 01:20:18.000 They tend to, not completely.



01:20:18.000 –> 01:20:19.200 They do some new stuff now.



01:20:19.200 –> 01:20:22.040 But they started out releasing, and still do,



01:20:22.040 –> 01:20:26.480 release a lot of 90s Jungle on the Deep Jungle label.



01:20:26.480 –> 01:20:28.600 But they seem to be branching out to more newer things.



01:20:28.600 –> 01:20:30.280 Hence the Dwarde and the Tim Reaper.



01:20:30.280 –> 01:20:32.760 Who have released things on that label.



01:20:32.760 –> 01:20:36.400 But I like this idea of taking, they had like Dillinja.



01:20:36.400 –> 01:20:37.560 Old Dillinja tracks on there.



01:20:37.560 –> 01:20:40.480 So that’s the first time capsule that’s old.



01:20:40.480 –> 01:20:42.720 I suspect someone might be off tape.



01:20:42.720 –> 01:20:44.560 But it’s always fascinating here.



01:20:44.560 –> 01:20:47.120 There’s old Jungle Pirate Radio classic.



01:20:47.120 –> 01:20:49.680 You never hear again, usually.



01:20:49.680 –> 01:20:52.160 Then before that we had Marusha.



01:20:52.160 –> 01:20:53.600 Also from the 90s.



01:20:53.600 –> 01:20:56.360 ’94, that’s Somewhere Over The Rainbow.



01:20:56.360 –> 01:20:59.640 And I have to thank PDSMix for introducing me to that.



01:20:59.640 –> 01:21:01.920 And that’s a bit of sort of Berlin Electronica.



01:21:01.920 –> 01:21:03.280 So Berlin DJ, I think.



01:21:03.280 –> 01:21:05.280 Love parade, like stuff.



01:21:05.280 –> 01:21:08.080 But I love the fact that there’s a hardcore.



01:21:08.080 –> 01:21:10.320 Is that hardcore?



01:21:10.320 –> 01:21:12.200 Is that more, it’s not really trance.



01:21:12.200 –> 01:21:13.160 I wouldn’t call that trance.



01:21:13.160 –> 01:21:14.800 So I would call that more Hardhouse,



01:21:14.800 –> 01:21:16.480 or not really Fat as Gabba,



01:21:16.480 –> 01:21:19.520 but yeah, sort of Gabba-ry Hardhouse remix



01:21:19.520 –> 01:21:22.600 of Cover of Somewhere Over the Rainbow.



01:21:22.600 –> 01:21:26.960 Then before that we had Cygnus X from 2000.



01:21:26.960 –> 01:21:29.680 Although again, I’m not sure if that’s correct, that date.



01:21:29.680 –> 01:21:31.520 The Orange theme, the original mix.



01:21:31.520 –> 01:21:34.800 ‘Cause it’s always a problem with compilations



01:21:34.800 –> 01:21:37.640 and re-releases and remixes and stuff.



01:21:37.640 –> 01:21:41.560 You never totally know if that’s actually the correct date.



01:21:41.560 –> 01:21:44.640 But somewhere around then, somewhence.



01:21:44.640 –> 01:21:49.120 So yes, we’re now gonna play a more of a spooky,



01:21:49.120 –> 01:21:50.840 well, it’s not really a spooky track,



01:21:50.840 –> 01:21:54.280 but you’ll find the ghost theme running through



01:21:54.280 –> 01:21:55.200 in some of the sounds.



01:21:55.200 –> 01:21:57.640 It’s more being inspired by things



01:21:57.640 –> 01:21:58.920 that are a little bit more spooky



01:21:58.920 –> 01:22:01.200 and a bit more dark and a bit more,



01:22:01.200 –> 01:22:03.440 even just the woo, noise.



01:22:03.440 –> 01:22:04.800 Yeah, don’t do that again.



01:22:04.800 –> 01:22:06.640 And this has it a lot.



01:22:06.640 –> 01:22:10.800 It’s a trend that actually has been in a lot of podcasts



01:22:10.800 –> 01:22:11.640 having taken out.



01:22:11.640 –> 01:22:13.440 And it seemed to be more appropriate for this.



01:22:13.440 –> 01:22:15.520 And this is from 1982,



01:22:15.520 –> 01:22:18.040 Waldir Calmon and Afro Son.



01:22:18.040 –> 01:22:19.920 But you probably will recognize this



01:22:19.920 –> 01:22:24.600 ’cause it’s a very naughty, I think, Brazilian or South American



01:22:24.600 –> 01:22:27.040 steal of a track you might recognize.



02:02:43.320 –> 02:02:46.120 That was, Big Joanie.



02:02:46.760 –> 02:02:49.920 Into My Arms (Reprise)



02:02:49.920 –> 02:02:52.080 from their album,



02:02:52.080 –> 02:02:53.800 from last year Back Home,



02:02:53.800 –> 02:02:55.280 and checked out Big Joanie partly



02:02:55.280 –> 02:02:57.760 because I saw an article about



02:02:57.760 –> 02:03:00.480 Lambrini Girls and M(h)aol



02:03:00.480 –> 02:03:01.480 animation Big Joanie,



02:03:01.480 –> 02:03:02.320 and I was like, oh yeah,



02:03:02.320 –> 02:03:03.360 never really checked them out.



02:03:03.360 –> 02:03:06.400 The original of that sounds very New-Ordery.



02:03:06.400 –> 02:03:08.320 Sounds almost like New Order to me.



02:03:08.320 –> 02:03:10.160 New Order maybe crossed with a bit of



02:03:10.160 –> 02:03:12.360 doo-wop Motown girl group,



02:03:12.360 –> 02:03:15.080 but it’s still quite new-ordery in the synths



02:03:15.080 –> 02:03:17.000 and the guitars.



02:03:17.000 –> 02:03:19.040 I much prefer that Be My Baby



02:03:19.040 –> 02:03:22.120 Ronettes version rather than the actual single.



02:03:22.120 –> 02:03:24.040 The video’s brilliant as well.



02:03:24.040 –> 02:03:26.000 Then before that, we heard Rosita.



02:03:26.000 –> 02:03:26.720 with Down Here,



02:03:26.720 –> 02:03:28.320 Rosita being the band formed



02:03:28.320 –> 02:03:30.960 by two of the members of Kenickie.



02:03:30.960 –> 02:03:34.400 And that’s from 2000’s Santa Pocas Dream EP.



02:03:34.400 –> 02:03:36.200 I’d heard the odd thing from Rosita,



02:03:36.200 –> 02:03:38.320 and it hadn’t really stuck.



02:03:38.320 –> 02:03:40.240 And I kind of did a bigger dive



02:03:40.240 –> 02:03:41.880 because I was reading about, you know,



02:03:41.880 –> 02:03:43.040 the end of Kenickie and thinking,



02:03:43.040 –> 02:03:44.560 what did they do?



02:03:44.560 –> 02:03:48.480 Johnny X became J Xaverre.



02:03:48.480 –> 02:03:49.800 And you can find him on band camp.



02:03:49.800 –> 02:03:51.520 He’s still producing music.



02:03:51.520 –> 02:03:54.560 I think one of them became a lecturer in sociology.



02:03:54.560 –> 02:03:56.760 And obviously, Lauren Laverne is on,



02:03:56.760 –> 02:03:59.000 as I present her now, but it’s very sad.



02:03:59.000 –> 02:04:00.840 I’m still pissed off about Kenickie splitting.



02:04:00.840 –> 02:04:01.800 They were my group.



02:04:01.800 –> 02:04:04.240 Pulp and them were like my groups really.



02:04:04.240 –> 02:04:07.760 And I was really, really upset when they split.



02:04:07.760 –> 02:04:09.120 And I really liked that.



02:04:09.120 –> 02:04:10.960 And it’s kind of weird



02:04:10.960 –> 02:04:13.120 because some of the songs I don’t really get,



02:04:13.120 –> 02:04:16.240 but that one, I’m like, oh, that’s really good.



02:04:16.240 –> 02:04:17.200 But there’s a few bits in it.



02:04:17.200 –> 02:04:19.240 Like my old name doesn’t mean anything, you know,



02:04:19.240 –> 02:04:20.080 that kind of thing.



02:04:20.080 –> 02:04:22.560 I’m like, hmm, yes.



02:04:22.560 –> 02:04:23.520 I don’t know when it was written,



02:04:23.520 –> 02:04:26.040 but bits of it sounded a little bit



02:04:26.040 –> 02:04:28.640 possibly referring to the end of Kenickie.



02:04:28.640 –> 02:04:30.320 Something has that vibe.



02:04:30.320 –> 02:04:33.240 And then before that, we had The Monkees



02:04:33.240 –> 02:04:35.320 with Me and Magdalena.



02:04:35.320 –> 02:04:39.560 That’s from their last album, Good Times from 2016.



02:04:39.560 –> 02:04:41.440 And that was written by Ben Gibbard,



02:04:41.440 –> 02:04:44.120 otherwise known as Death Cab for Cutie.



02:04:44.120 –> 02:04:46.680 And I think I did hear at the time.



02:04:46.680 –> 02:04:47.600 I’m pretty sure I heard it,



02:04:47.600 –> 02:04:52.440 but I checked it out again and I was like, wow.



02:04:52.440 –> 02:04:55.440 That’s, it’s surprisingly good song



02:04:55.440 –> 02:04:56.600 for The Monkees to sing,



02:04:56.600 –> 02:04:59.280 but they do it justice and it’s very sad to hear.



02:04:59.280 –> 02:05:02.400 You didn’t hear a Mike’s Nesmith and Mickey



02:05:02.400 –> 02:05:03.240 on the same track.



02:05:03.240 –> 02:05:05.240 Generally they did their own backing vocals,



02:05:05.240 –> 02:05:06.560 or they might do some backing vocals,



02:05:06.560 –> 02:05:08.560 not as like a duet.



02:05:08.560 –> 02:05:09.960 And that worked really well.



02:05:09.960 –> 02:05:11.160 The rest of the album is kind of like,



02:05:11.160 –> 02:05:14.920 Bubblegum, Pop, Surfy, Adam Schlesinger



02:05:14.920 –> 02:05:17.000 RIP, put the album together.



02:05:17.000 –> 02:05:19.240 But there’s also things like weirdly Paul Weller,



02:05:19.240 –> 02:05:22.200 and Noel Gallagher did a song for it and things like that,



02:05:22.200 –> 02:05:24.320 which I don’t think totally works, but.



02:05:24.320 –> 02:05:25.160 Well, I mean, I suppose they didn’t,



02:05:25.160 –> 02:05:26.520 they’re totally their last album.



02:05:26.520 –> 02:05:27.520 They did a Christmas album.



02:05:27.520 –> 02:05:30.080 This last full album, they did a Christmas album.



02:05:30.080 –> 02:05:32.080 And that was the last, then Peter Tork died



02:05:32.080 –> 02:05:34.120 and then Mike Nessith.



02:05:34.120 –> 02:05:36.320 And so it’s only just Micey Dolenz anymore.



02:05:36.320 –> 02:05:38.040 And I’ve not heard that R.E.M album yet.



02:05:38.040 –> 02:05:39.240 I’m not sure it’s out yet.



02:05:39.240 –> 02:05:40.920 They did an R.E.M. covers album,



02:05:40.920 –> 02:05:42.320 which I posted about on the blog,



02:05:42.320 –> 02:05:44.560 which I would like to hear.



02:05:44.560 –> 02:05:46.920 And then before that, we had Courtney Barnett



02:05:46.920 –> 02:05:51.920 with He’s the Thing from 2021’s Things Take Time, Take Time.



02:05:51.920 –> 02:05:53.080 It’s interesting.



02:05:53.080 –> 02:05:54.360 I don’t know what’s going on with Courtney Barnett.



02:05:54.360 –> 02:05:58.400 She’s ended her record label a few months ago,



02:05:58.400 –> 02:06:02.560 released an album of really a live jam soundtrack



02:06:02.560 –> 02:06:05.480 to a tour film about her.



02:06:05.480 –> 02:06:07.160 And that was the last thing on that label.



02:06:07.160 –> 02:06:09.160 So I don’t know what’s going on with that,



02:06:09.160 –> 02:06:10.520 ’cause she ran that label for,



02:06:10.520 –> 02:06:12.800 must be at least 15, maybe 20 years.



02:06:12.800 –> 02:06:15.640 I was kind of passed by some of the singles,



02:06:15.640 –> 02:06:17.880 but that one is really good.



02:06:17.880 –> 02:06:20.440 I don’t know, it was a weird time to do very upbeat,



02:06:20.440 –> 02:06:21.280 happy music.



02:06:21.280 –> 02:06:24.360 It was a very downbeat time during the lockdown.



02:06:24.360 –> 02:06:27.000 I think the timing was wrong for that album.



02:06:27.000 –> 02:06:30.360 Then before that, we had Tickle Tune Typhoon.



02:06:30.360 –> 02:06:31.680 That’s Little Owket,



02:06:31.680 –> 02:06:36.680 sung by Danny Deardoff from 1994’s Baby Tickle Tunes,



02:06:36.680 –> 02:06:39.000 Patty Cakes and Peek-A-Boo’s.



02:06:39.000 –> 02:06:41.440 Danny Deardoff sadly died in 2018.



02:06:41.440 –> 02:06:45.440 I didn’t know that until I did my deep dive onto his work.



02:06:45.440 –> 02:06:49.440 He had to be lifted on stage and used a wheelchair



02:06:49.440 –> 02:06:52.320 and sang sort of lying down.



02:06:52.320 –> 02:06:55.560 And the story goes is that Seals and Croft,



02:06:55.560 –> 02:07:00.320 he ended up a tape to them and they loved his work.



02:07:00.320 –> 02:07:04.280 And so he was supporting them with his Danny and Joseph band.



02:07:04.280 –> 02:07:06.680 And the promoters were like,



02:07:06.680 –> 02:07:08.680 “Oh, we want you back” but were horrified.



02:07:08.680 –> 02:07:11.520 They wanted them to drop the support act.



02:07:11.520 –> 02:07:13.600 And they were like, “Sorry, if Danny doesn’t play,



02:07:13.600 –> 02:07:15.120 “we’re not playing.”



02:07:15.120 –> 02:07:18.960 And they stuck with that, even as promoters were upset.



02:07:18.960 –> 02:07:19.800 They were like, “Nope.”



02:07:19.800 –> 02:07:23.000 And that’s the way it was back then in the ’70s and ’80s.



02:07:23.000 –> 02:07:25.880 It was like, “Oh, no, we can’t have disabled people



02:07:25.880 –> 02:07:27.040 on the stage.”



02:07:27.040 –> 02:07:29.280 I remember them telling Robert Wyatt



02:07:29.280 –> 02:07:31.760 not to have his wheelchair,



02:07:31.760 –> 02:07:33.640 which he refused to comply with.



02:07:33.640 –> 02:07:35.840 They wanted to put him into a chair and to sit there.



02:07:35.840 –> 02:07:36.960 And he was like, “No.”



02:07:36.960 –> 02:07:38.720 And it was this idea of,



02:07:38.720 –> 02:07:40.320 “Oh, no, we can’t have disabled people



02:07:40.320 –> 02:07:42.360 on a wheelchair in the public eye.”



02:07:42.360 –> 02:07:44.720 It’s a bit like the way some people are with trans people



02:07:44.720 –> 02:07:48.160 or queer people or it seems to be this whole thing of like,



02:07:48.160 –> 02:07:49.760 “Oh, we can’t, the people are different.



02:07:49.760 –> 02:07:53.600 We’re just gonna want them out of the way and it’s horrible.”



02:07:53.600 –> 02:07:54.560 But to give credit,



02:07:54.560 –> 02:07:57.000 and I’m not into Seal and Croft’s work,



02:07:57.000 –> 02:07:58.880 it’s very, how do you describe it?



02:07:58.880 –> 02:08:01.880 Not even folk, it’s sort of like very middle of the road.
