RC 394: A Place To Hide

Sometimes you need a room full strangers to make you feel less alone, A place dark enough to make yourself unknown, unknowable,but…home somehow, A place to hide somehow, at least that’s how it feels.
Antony Szmierek



No murder on the dancefloor with a spoken word club mix about lhaving a place to hide with your rum and ginger beer and losing those life and joy-giving queer spaces …



A very mashup/dance heavy podcast, from acid house meets Pink Floyd to phonk, the new-ish Orbital track, a track from the upcoming Arab Strap album (it’s released in April not May), War of the Worlds, walking and hiking, jungle, ALEXA PLAY PUMPED UP KICKS with tracks about personal assistants, and five gold rings …no, five new mashups from me, including a remake of an old Reborn Identity classic.

00:03:58.680 –> 00:04:00.540 Hello and welcome to Radio Clash.



00:04:00.540 –> 00:04:05.740 This is 394, and A Place To Hide, and there’s no jingle this time, I thought, well, we’ve



00:04:05.740 –> 00:04:09.880 got this long section from the end is much which I love, I love the fact you’re hearing



00:04:09.880 –> 00:04:11.400 all the Martians here.



00:04:11.400 –> 00:04:19.080 This is iWillBattle with War the Houdinis, Dua Lipa vs Jeff Wayne, War of the Worlds,



00:04:19.080 –> 00:04:24.400 and at the start you heard SpongeBob SquareWave from 2023 that this is one new day you don’t



00:04:24.400 –> 00:04:29.440 want to fuck, which I love the way that sort of chops up that sample.



00:04:29.440 –> 00:04:37.260 I hope you’re all well, I’ve been, oh, I’ve been so busy doing hiking shizzle, so hiking



00:04:37.260 –> 00:04:44.900 YouTube stuff, nearly 500 subscribers now, about sort of 16 away, and I don’t want to



00:04:44.900 –> 00:04:49.500 jinx it because I know I’m just saying this, but like, I’ll probably go down next week,



00:04:49.500 –> 00:04:50.500 it always does.



00:04:50.500 –> 00:04:56.700 And I’ve just posted on my second attempt at the South Downs Way trip where I did 45



00:04:56.700 –> 00:05:02.720 miles, you can find that over at YouTube at @HardUpHiker, just at @HardUpHiker or where



00:05:02.720 –> 00:05:04.720 you’ll find it.



00:05:04.720 –> 00:05:09.800 And yeah, I screwed my knee up, I think maybe I mentioned it in the last podcast, it’s



00:05:09.800 –> 00:05:16.680 taken five, six weeks, and I did about 50 miles for walking last week, including two



00:05:16.680 –> 00:05:22.560 12 mile hikes with the full pack, and I’ve got a video about that next week, but you



00:05:22.560 –> 00:05:26.820 know, I kind of felt I had to kind of build back up again, it’s like, you know, training



00:05:26.820 –> 00:05:30.820 or, you know, recuperation, but it’s taken a very long time and it’s been very annoying



00:05:30.820 –> 00:05:35.460 because I had all these plans and because The Big Freeze finished and everything, warmer



00:05:35.460 –> 00:05:40.980 again and I couldn’t go out, and I was like, now it’s all rains, obviously, we had the



00:05:40.980 –> 00:05:47.540 full spring, and now we’re having the proper spring, which is very wet, so yeah, I meant



00:05:47.540 –> 00:05:53.600 to get this out earlier, and I say it’s just way too, way too busy, the one I did previously



00:05:53.600 –> 00:05:57.400 was a stopgap, I mean that’s the thing with the deep dive shows, they’re very much things



00:05:57.400 –> 00:06:01.800 where I’ve got them and I just want to do a quickie, when I want to do a quickie, yeah,



00:06:01.800 –> 00:06:06.680 and this case with this one is that it’s just been hanging around for the last couple of



00:06:06.680 –> 00:06:10.920 weeks, ready to go, and I’ve just haven’t had time to record it, it’s supposed to have



00:06:10.920 –> 00:06:15.600 been for February, and this is now going to be for March really, and it’s more of a



00:06:15.600 –> 00:06:22.140 mash-up show, but more about clubs, and when the clubs closed down back in the pandemic



00:06:22.140 –> 00:06:28.020 and how I reacted to that, and hence the phrase ‘a place to hide’ is from a song later on



00:06:28.020 –> 00:06:33.500 in the podcast by Antony Szmierek, but we’re going to start in typical fashion, with nothing



00:06:33.500 –> 00:06:42.380 to do with the theme, this is Shades of Fade to Grey, Visage vs Delaney Jane by Sir Hank.



00:53:25.060 –> 00:53:54.320 That had to be Pete Cannon, and Mistrees with their 2023 take of The Streets Blinded By The Lights, and before that was The



00:53:54.320 –> 00:54:00.000 Streets, We Become Heroes, The 9Trane Edit, and that was from 2022.



00:54:00.000 –> 00:54:05.940 I had to have those songs somehow in here in a mashup or remix form, because they’re



00:54:05.940 –> 00:54:10.140 very much about clubbing, and I wasn’t a part of the Acid House Summer.



00:54:10.140 –> 00:54:14.100 I was a bit too young for all the Acid House stuff, but the original Summer of Love, he was



00:54:14.100 –> 00:54:19.380 like five years later and writing about five years before, and now it’s 30 years later.



00:54:19.380 –> 00:54:20.380 Twenty years?



00:54:20.380 –> 00:54:21.380 Yeah.



00:54:21.380 –> 00:54:22.380 I feel old.



00:54:22.380 –> 00:54:26.480 And before that, in honour of the fact that I can’t go to these places anymore, we have



00:54:26.480 –> 00:54:32.360 bis Irrelevant disco from 2022’s System Music for Home Defense, and that’s all about



00:54:32.360 –> 00:54:37.820 seemingly becoming irrelevant, and just wondering if anyone’s out there, which I totally, totally



00:54:37.820 –> 00:54:38.820 get.



00:54:38.820 –> 00:54:40.640 What could that relate to?



00:54:40.640 –> 00:54:45.520 And also, the fact that you can’t afford to go to Tokyo, I can never afford to go to



00:54:45.520 –> 00:54:46.520 Tokyo.



00:54:46.520 –> 00:54:49.760 I probably could have when I was younger, but now you can’t afford to go places that



00:54:49.760 –> 00:54:52.020 you were, and the kind of things move on.



00:54:52.020 –> 00:54:53.020 You know, like Glastonbury.



00:54:53.020 –> 00:54:54.020 I used to go to Glastonbury.



00:54:54.020 –> 00:54:56.860 I can’t afford to go to Glastonbury anymore, which is really sad.



00:54:56.860 –> 00:55:03.260 Then before that, we have, For Those I Love, with I Have a Love, the Overmono remix from



00:55:03.260 –> 00:55:04.260 2021.



00:55:04.260 –> 00:55:10.740 And I didn’t know about that until weirdly, Ivo Graham was talking about, was reviewing



00:55:10.740 –> 00:55:17.540 the Huw Stevens Round Table, the track that I played earlier, the Orbital, and said he



00:55:17.540 –> 00:55:21.560 reminded him of that track, and it was like, I’ve never heard that, and I went and checked



00:55:21.560 –> 00:55:23.060 out the Boiler Room.



00:55:23.060 –> 00:55:29.120 For Those I Love is an Irish poet, and he arrives on stage in the Boiler Room, and he



00:55:29.120 –> 00:55:33.440 is really like, wow, yes, it’s like the whole stage is levitating, and everyone’s just so



00:55:33.440 –> 00:55:34.440 into it.



00:55:34.440 –> 00:55:38.760 It was about his friend who died, so I relate to it in the sense that, you know, it’s also



00:55:38.760 –> 00:55:43.520 I Have a Love of clubbing, and I think that’s also in there as well, but also it’s a very



00:55:43.520 –> 00:55:50.100 specific love for someone else, and love for doing spoken word, and love for doing your



00:55:50.100 –> 00:55:51.100 thing.



00:55:51.100 –> 00:55:55.060 And then before that, we had something that was about the lockdown, that’s Marea (We’ve



00:55:55.060 –> 00:56:02.420 Lost Dancing) vs At Night, Switch Disco Edit, and that’s Fred Again featuring the Blessed



00:56:02.420 –> 00:56:07.620 Madonna, and Switch Disco have mixed in some Shakedown, and that seemed to work really well.



00:56:07.620 –> 00:56:10.300 I mean, again, I wanted to play that, but I played the original, but then I found that



00:56:10.300 –> 00:56:13.720 mashup edit, and I was like, oh, that’s perfect.



00:56:13.720 –> 00:56:17.160 It’s a bit weird, yeah, I haven’t heard of Switch, well, it says Switch Disco, I don’t



00:56:17.160 –> 00:56:21.080 know if that’s Switch, as in the Switch producer, or whether it’s Switch Disco or someone else.



00:56:21.080 –> 00:56:24.800 I’m not totally sure, I’m not sure.



00:56:24.800 –> 00:56:28.600 And then before that, I’ve all mentioned Martin Badder and Antony Szmierek with A Place



00:56:28.600 –> 00:56:36.440 to Hide, from 2023, when I was a single, and he’s doing the Manchester Six Music, another



00:56:36.440 –> 00:56:41.860 thing I can’t go to, the 6Music Festival, which is, you know, quite rightly so.



00:56:41.860 –> 00:56:43.460 We love Antony Szmierek here.



00:56:43.460 –> 00:56:50.180 And then before that, we had, it me, Instamatic, not the winner of the Crumplbanger Challenge,



00:56:50.180 –> 00:56:51.340 but I did actually win that challenge.



00:56:51.340 –> 00:56:55.180 It was a challenge to create phonk mashups, and I had not really come across a genre



00:56:55.180 –> 00:57:02.100 called phonk, which seems to be very much using those tomtoms, you know, those tuned 808 tomtoms.



00:57:02.100 –> 00:57:07.120 Quite often, distortion, and it’s sort of this Memphis thing, but Kordhell, who I mashed



00:57:07.120 –> 00:57:09.840 up there, is actually a British producer.



00:57:09.840 –> 00:57:13.920 And that’s Houdini Fatality, Houdini again, I do like Houdini, it’s a brilliant song,



00:57:13.920 –> 00:57:15.640 Dua Lipa versus Kordhell.



00:57:15.640 –> 00:57:22.240 I’ve done like four or five Kordhell mashups in the last month or so, I’m a big fan of



00:57:22.240 –> 00:57:23.240 his work.



00:57:23.240 –> 00:57:29.480 It’s just a very interesting, it’s a bit like more tempo, witch house, or like stream



00:57:29.480 –> 00:57:30.480 thing.



00:57:30.480 –> 00:57:34.980 There’s, there’s 80s references in there, and they use a lot of samples of Memphis



00:57:34.980 –> 00:57:38.140 rappers quite sped up and you can hardly work out what they are.



00:57:38.140 –> 00:57:43.780 I had fun making them more pop, which is probably against their, against their image with all



00:57:43.780 –> 00:57:48.500 the skulls and all the purple skulls and everything to make it all.



00:57:48.500 –> 00:57:52.940 I did a Whitney Houston one, and I did another one, which I’ll play later on.



00:57:52.940 –> 00:57:57.460 And then before that, we had a mashup, which I missed out on, it was just about three months



00:57:57.460 –> 00:58:03.800 ago, or maybe a bit longer now, at Dunproofin’ with Flash, Green Velvet versus Joey Beltram



00:58:03.800 –> 00:58:04.800 versus Queen.



00:58:04.800 –> 00:58:09.960 Oh, I mean, Green Velvet is about being in a club and looking at all of the naughty



00:58:09.960 –> 00:58:12.640 kiddies doing naughty things.



00:58:12.640 –> 00:58:15.320 Who doesn’t like, you know, Queen meeting Acid House?



00:58:15.320 –> 00:58:20.080 I don’t know, is it Joey, Joey Beltram is more techno, isn’t he?



00:58:20.080 –> 00:58:21.080 Techno.



00:58:21.080 –> 00:58:22.960 So yeah, I like that a lot.



00:58:22.960 –> 00:58:29.620 And then before that, we had Tonight in Belfast, Orbital with David Holmes, Mike Garry doing



00:58:29.620 –> 00:58:32.300 the spoken word and DJ Helen.



00:58:32.300 –> 00:58:36.400 And that was a release at the start of February, which is why I know this mix was kind of inspired



00:58:36.400 –> 00:58:40.180 it, but it was like, yeah, it kind of broke off from there and then I wanted to do a Place



00:58:40.180 –> 00:58:43.020 To Hide and I heard that and went, that’s perfect.



00:58:43.020 –> 00:58:48.220 I wanted to do a whole spoken word club mix, but then it became about a thing, obviously.



00:58:48.220 –> 00:58:54.360 I mean, quite emotional. And interestingly, in a similar sense of hiding, although in



00:58:54.360 –> 00:59:00.080 a different sense, more like looking on headphones and getting away from people, we have Bliss



00:59:00.080 –> 00:59:04.080 by Arab Strap, with the new Arab Strap album, which hasn’t been released yet, or I don’t



00:59:04.080 –> 00:59:09.160 know, maybe it’s been released now, but certainly, I don’t think it has been come out yet.



00:59:09.160 –> 00:59:11.240 But yeah, I really like that a lot.



00:59:11.240 –> 00:59:12.240 That’s really, really cool.



00:59:12.240 –> 00:59:16.800 It’s very much about having to react to people living in a city.



00:59:16.800 –> 00:59:20.740 The whole thing about sitting here, you know, having to shut people off and you put on your



00:59:20.740 –> 00:59:25.900 headphones or go hiking and get away and go camping in the middle of a wood somewhere,



00:59:25.900 –> 00:59:27.300 which is another way of doing it.



00:59:27.300 –> 00:59:28.300 It all relates.



00:59:28.300 –> 00:59:29.300 It all relates.



00:59:29.300 –> 00:59:33.740 And the start is actually just a mashup I really like, although it has a similar mood



00:59:33.740 –> 00:59:39.820 to the Arab Strap mix, Sir Hank, with Shades Of Fade To Gray, Visage versus Delaney Jane.



00:59:39.820 –> 00:59:43.700 I don’t know Delaney Jane, but I love how the interplay of those vocals worked really



00:59:43.700 –> 00:59:44.700 well.



00:59:44.700 –> 00:59:49.200 And that is, I wouldn’t say it’s hard to do, it’s half spotting two combinations that



00:59:49.200 –> 00:59:50.200 work really well.



00:59:50.200 –> 00:59:54.240 And the other one is knowing how to interweave them to make a flow narrative.



00:59:54.240 –> 00:59:57.120 And a lot of people get it wrong, they try and chop it all up and it’s all goes.



00:59:57.120 –> 01:00:03.560 And it’s like, no simple respect when it comes to juxtaposing two things to relate to each



01:00:03.560 –> 01:00:04.560 other.



01:00:04.560 –> 01:00:05.560 It’s best to let them breathe.



01:00:05.560 –> 01:00:07.520 Don’t change it to another diva every 30 seconds.



01:00:07.520 –> 01:00:08.520 And I really hate that.



01:00:08.520 –> 01:00:13.520 And when you’ve got a combination that speaks to both bits, that is a good combination.



01:00:13.520 –> 01:00:16.660 And I feel that about that one.



01:00:16.660 –> 01:00:23.540 So we’re going to change track and play some rock, but I have to say this is something



01:00:23.540 –> 01:00:29.380 I heard via, iWillBattle, iWillBattle does a top 10 or did a top 10 for January.



01:00:29.380 –> 01:00:30.860 I’m not, was it February?



01:00:30.860 –> 01:00:31.860 I don’t know.



01:00:31.860 –> 01:00:36.560 I was in the top 10 for mashups for rock, but I can’t remember if it was end of January



01:00:36.560 –> 01:00:41.980 or early February, but, but yes, I was in the top 10 with a track you’ll hear later.



01:00:41.980 –> 01:00:48.640 But he also played this track by, I originally thought it was by Lewis Wake and I was looking



01:00:48.640 –> 01:00:49.640 at Lewis wake’s Bandcamp.



01:00:49.640 –> 01:00:50.640 Where is it?



01:00:50.640 –> 01:00:51.640 Where is it?



01:00:51.640 –> 01:00:52.640 Where is it?



01:00:52.640 –> 01:00:53.640 And it turns out it’s actually by someone called Lewis Scarole.



01:00:53.640 –> 01:00:54.640 I don’t know them.



01:00:54.640 –> 01:01:00.120 I don’t know if they’re a Mashup Reddit person, but this is really cool because I know DJNoNo



01:01:00.120 –> 01:01:04.840 loves and I love Mike Oldfield & Maggie Reilly’s Moonlight Shadow.



01:01:04.840 –> 01:01:08.280 And I was thinking there wasn’t enough Moonlight Shadow mashups.



01:01:08.280 –> 01:01:12.700 That’s why DJNoNo did theirs with the Pixies and someone’s done one with Bloc



01:01:12.700 –> 01:01:13.700 Party.



01:01:13.700 –> 01:01:16.700 This is Moonlight Banquet.



01:38:19.640 –> 01:38:25.680 That was one of mine that’s TBC aka Instamatic with ‘The Great Grande in the Sky’ Ariana



01:38:25.680 –> 01:38:32.960 Grande as ‘yes and’, versus ‘Pink Floy’ds The Great Gig in the Sky’, then before that



01:38:32.960 –> 01:38:35.460 I think we’re the best moody mash I’ve heard.



01:38:35.460 –> 01:38:42.020 Well, definitely this year if not in a very long time, that’s ToTom with high times on



01:38:42.020 –> 01:38:48.140 Acid Eiffel With Dying Slaves Of Fear In The Sky, that’s Health versus Yungblud and Lil



01:38:48.140 –> 01:38:55.900 Yachty Pink Floyd versus Choice, and that was the winner in, well, when I won the Phonk



01:38:55.900 –> 01:39:02.620 Challenge, I had to judge one and I chose acid house, and that’s like a 13 minute, nearly



01:39:02.620 –> 01:39:08.200 14 minute acid mash-up epic, and it’s probably the longest mash-up I’ve played in this podcast,



01:39:08.200 –> 01:39:13.560 one of them, and I played almost all of it and just mixed out right at the end and start,



01:39:13.560 –> 01:39:18.360 but it is brilliant, I’m really glad ToTom finished that, it’s really good.



01:39:18.360 –> 01:39:24.760 And then before that we heard Caserta with Lights Off, we had a sort of a Alexa section



01:39:24.760 –> 01:39:30.400 because there was this running joke in the Crumplstock about something which PomDeter



01:39:30.400 –> 01:39:35.980 played, which is shouting ‘Alexa, play Pumped Up Kicks’ at a pork pie, there’s a



01:39:35.980 –> 01:39:40.020 video of just an hour of someone doing that, and he played 17 minutes of that and then



01:39:40.020 –> 01:39:46.660 it became a thing and then I ran with it and did a mash-up during the Crumplstock for



01:39:46.660 –> 01:39:53.580 the phonk challenge, so that was the end of January, that was about a month ago, time flies,



01:39:53.580 –> 01:40:00.560 hence that’s what that comes from. So that was DJNo No’s Phonked Up Kicks, Foster The People



01:40:00.560 –> 01:40:05.560 vs. Kordhell vs. Chin Stroke TV, which is the person who did the shouting at a pork



01:40:05.560 –> 01:40:11.360 pie, but then I thought, well, I wanted to play some Negativland, I was going through



01:40:11.360 –> 01:40:17.580 the Live Brain live Negativland shows I was at in 2020, fortunately they had to cancel the



01:40:17.580 –> 01:40:22.880 one recently because of illness, there’s ‘I’m Going To Sing Now (London 2)’, I was



01:40:22.880 –> 01:40:26.740 there for both of them, I think actually, the Weatherman’s singing, but it’s



01:40:26.740 –> 01:40:32.220 all him interacting with Alexa and Okay Google, so it’s funny how it says, that’s why left



01:40:32.220 –> 01:40:36.580 the drum and bass going, it says, ‘Music of the Spheres’ is 180 beats or whatever, in music



01:40:36.580 –> 01:40:42.440 from the cosmos, 180 beats or more, and it’s like, oh, and then before that, aforementioned



01:40:42.440 –> 01:40:47.140 more ‘Jungle’ really, that’s ‘Mirror Method’ by Charla Green, I’ve really been digging



01:40:47.140 –> 01:40:54.320 Charla Green, Charla Green is a Sheffield Jungle drum bass producer, and yeah, I’m



01:40:54.320 –> 01:41:00.680 really liking what she’s producing, so that’s from 2021, check her out, as she has a bit



01:41:00.680 –> 01:41:06.560 of a quiet YouTube channel where she’s making music from various sound and things, but also



01:41:06.560 –> 01:41:14.120 that one is on Off Me Nut Records, Ian Fondue posted the SpongeBob Squarewave,



01:41:14.120 –> 01:41:18.900 an older one of SpongeBob Squarewave, so thanks to Ian Fondue for that, but then I checked



01:41:18.900 –> 01:41:22.680 out the more recent stuff, and hence the intro thing, and that was all relating to the acid



01:41:22.680 –> 01:41:29.480 challenge, and then before that, we had Shahar Varshal with, as it was like heaven, The Cure



01:41:29.480 –> 01:41:34.680 versus Genesis, me and Genesis mashup, so yes, versus Ultravox versus Harry



01:41:34.680 –> 01:41:38.800 Styles, I love that Harry Styles song, I love the Genesis song, but yeah, that



01:41:38.800 –> 01:41:43.400 works pretty well, I mean, you know, I was talking about how things have to have a narrative



01:41:43.400 –> 01:41:47.480 flow or whatever, but they don’t necessarily have to be too chin-strokey or a little bit



01:41:47.480 –> 01:41:51.080 more chop and change, but it’s still, you know, The Cure goes really well with Genesis,



01:41:51.080 –> 01:41:55.320 The Ultravox and Harry Styles, it has a similar mood, or there’s a connection



01:41:55.320 –> 01:41:59.840 there between them, like telling a story, like with a ToTom, finding very disparate things



01:41:59.840 –> 01:42:05.520 that sound similar, and have a similar vibe, I’m going to tell a story, that’s what a



01:42:05.520 –> 01:42:11.720 good multi-mash is, but so many people don’t do it probably, and then at the start section



01:42:11.720 –> 01:42:17.720 we had Lewis Scarole with Mike Oldfield, Moonlight Shadow versus Bloc Party, is it ‘Helicopter’,



01:42:17.720 –> 01:42:22.000 I forget the name of that one, I think it’s ‘Helicopter’, I should know, 2004, 20 years



01:42:22.000 –> 01:42:31.400 ago, again, fitting old, fitting old, so, you know, play a track from Adriana A’s album,



01:42:31.400 –> 01:42:38.880 Adriana she released a album right at the end of 2023 of a collection of mashups created



01:42:38.880 –> 01:42:42.400 over the last year, and there were a lot are related to challenges I think, and it’s, I



01:42:42.400 –> 01:42:53.780 have tried to say it, it’s ‘Imashionationships’, I can’t say that, and this is, I so loved



01:42:53.780 –> 01:42:59.560 seeing Tracy Chapman at the Grammys, I think I posted about it on the blog, RadioClash.com,



01:42:59.560 –> 01:43:03.680 he sold me on Luke Combs really, because before I was a bit like, who is this person,



01:43:03.680 –> 01:43:08.480 kind of dimly knew the name, very big in country, but I was like, hmm, who is this person, and



01:43:08.480 –> 01:43:15.400 you can see the respect and love for Tracy that he has in the performance, and how apparently



01:43:15.400 –> 01:43:20.720 they made it so that Tracy had complete veto, complete agreement over the arrangement, it



01:43:20.720 –> 01:43:26.440 was her chance to shine, it was her thing, you know, they made sure it was about her,



01:43:26.440 –> 01:43:31.120 and we could tell just by the way he was on stage that it was deferring to her, almost



01:43:31.120 –> 01:43:36.040 nervous to sing with her, and it obviously meant a lot to him, and a very moving version,



01:43:36.040 –> 01:43:41.280 so this is, I Keep Forgetting You’ve Got A Fast Car, that’s Luke Combs versus Michael



01:43:41.280 –> 01:43:46.400 MacDonald, a bit of, yacht mashing, yacht mashing, yacht folk, is that a thing?



01:43:46.400 –> 01:43:48.760 I don’t know.



:18.860 –> 02:08:25.440 This is Tony Mason-Cox, hItting The Bottom, from Songs in the Key of Z, Vol 3, I didn’t



02:08:25.440 –> 02:08:31.400 realize that I think they were unofficial that Songs in the Key of Z, 1 and 2 were in



02:08:31.400 –> 02:08:32.400 Tuesday.



02:08:32.400 –> 02:08:36.960 I don’t know if 3 and 4 are how official they are, especially 3 which ends on the four



02:08:36.960 –> 02:08:44.560 tracks by a child rapist, which, you know, I was like, hmm, Google, who is this person?



02:08:44.560 –> 02:08:49.700 Oh, there he is in the sexual offender registry in the United States.



02:08:49.700 –> 02:08:50.700 Yeah, lovely. /s



02:08:50.700 –> 02:08:55.620 So I really wouldn’t buy that album, but I love that.



02:08:55.620 –> 02:09:00.980 It’s kind of like existential and also funny at the same time, which is, you know, perfect.



02:09:00.980 –> 02:09:04.500 I’ve been checking out lots of outside in music recently, and I’ve been hearing a lot



02:09:04.500 –> 02:09:10.260 via PDSMix’s Brave New Weird Show, and it’s all inspired me to go and check them out.



02:09:10.260 –> 02:09:17.040 I have to say, I have mixed feelings because I remember the heyday of WFMU, I mean, still



02:09:17.040 –> 02:09:23.280 going, but you know, the 365 Days Project and those compilations being released, you



02:09:23.280 –> 02:09:28.480 know, and finding Shooby Taylor, and there’s all that sort of stuff, early 2000s, and it



02:09:28.480 –> 02:09:34.320 seems like that used most of the pot, apart from the old thing like that one, but a lot



02:09:34.320 –> 02:09:39.660 after the pot of the good tracks. And now there’s this thing so bad it’s good and just



02:09:39.660 –> 02:09:44.940 bad or me. There’s a lot of stuff I hear that’s outside of music. It’s like the next big thing.



02:09:44.940 –> 02:09:50.060 It’s like, you know, it doesn’t, maybe just something happens when you listen to a lot



02:09:50.060 –> 02:09:54.980 of outside of music. It just becomes not as good as it used to be, but I don’t know.



02:09:54.980 –> 02:09:59.700 Then before that, we had KKill_mR_DJ with, I Wasn’t Made For Surprises, Radiohead versus



02:09:59.700 –> 02:10:05.920 Billie Eilish. Yes, I love the Billie Eilish song. So, and that was kind of obvious, perfect.



02:10:05.920 –> 02:10:09.580 And I was like, Oh, why didn’t I think of that? But then again, I don’t think I’d do



02:10:09.580 –> 02:10:13.940 another Radiohead mesh for a while. I’ve been too many of them. I’ve certainly done several



02:10:13.940 –> 02:10:19.320 so no surprises ones. Then before that, we had iWillBattle with I Lose Control Of You,



02:10:19.320 –> 02:10:24.080 Teddy Swims, which is currently in the charts, I think, versus Nina Simone, who isn’t the



02:10:24.080 –> 02:10:29.640 currently in the charts, but should be. I lose control and I put a spell on you. That



02:10:29.640 –> 02:10:36.380 works very well. Then before that, we had from 1975, the B side of You Sexy Thing is



02:10:36.380 –> 02:10:40.880 the proof of the Hot Chocolate were nore than You Sexy Thing. That’s A Warm Smile that was



02:10:40.880 –> 02:10:45.660 written and performed by the other members of the band. So not Errol Brown, a beautiful



02:10:45.660 –> 02:10:50.580 song and a couple of theirs are really good. Really, I’ve been banging on for ages about



02:10:50.580 –> 02:10:56.160 Hot Chocolate and how you know, I’ve been diving into the B sides and stuff and how they kind



02:10:56.160 –> 02:11:02.040 of got known as being this novelty disco funk act. Every 1’S A Winner. YOu Sexy Thing in



02:11:02.040 –> 02:11:09.840 a very pop disco funk, but they were much, much more from day one. Then before that,



02:11:09.840 –> 02:11:15.560 we had a track kind of by me kind of not that’s TBC aka Instamatic with Boulevard of Broken



02:11:15.560 –> 02:11:21.820 Dreamcoat Green Day versus Boards of Canada. But originally that was done by Reborn Identity



02:11:21.820 –> 02:11:27.380 Gavin in 2008. And I found that version. I was like, this is good, but you know, I want



02:11:27.380 –> 02:11:32.460 the high quality version. So I made it myself. But then I made it different by adding in



02:11:32.460 –> 02:11:38.940 all of the bits of that’s Billie Joe Armstrong at five years old. He recorded a single Live



02:11:38.940 –> 02:11:42.620 To Love, I think it was. And I think one of the Green Day albums, they had a little bit



02:11:42.620 –> 02:11:50.280 of it of the interview on the B side, I used a lot more of it. Boards of Canada Chromakey



02:11:50.280 –> 02:11:57.440 Dreamcoat is the backing. And there aren’t that many mashups of Campfire Headphase at



02:11:57.440 –> 02:12:01.920 all. And there should be a lot more and heard that one and I was ahh. And I also extended it. He didn’t



02:12:01.920 –> 02:12:07.080 do the end section. So it’s, it’s called a Reborn Identity Mostly Reboot because I



02:12:07.080 –> 02:12:12.000 did bits, but it’s, I don’t know. I hate it when people add a little bit and then they



02:12:12.000 –> 02:12:16.740 go, Oh, this is mine. It’s like, that’s not right. Really, you have to completely change



02:12:16.740 –> 02:12:22.260 it or, you know, do the inverse or I even sideeye inverses. If you, if it’s a well



02:12:22.260 –> 02:12:27.660 known combo, just to do an inverse is lazy. I think you really have to nod to somebody.



02:12:27.660 –> 02:12:31.420 If you take their idea and just reverse it, you know, I think flip in reverse it, but



02:12:31.420 –> 02:12:35.820 I know some people would disagree, ‘who did it first?” But it’s just like really, you



02:12:35.820 –> 02:12:41.860 know, the person came out with a combo. You’re just flipping it. Is that really? Yeah. So



02:12:41.860 –> 02:12:45.680 yeah, that’s why I had to credit that because, you know, it’s mostly Reborn Identity’s, but



02:12:45.680 –> 02:12:51.120 you know, I sped it up and did it my way. So it is kind of my take on it. I don’t think



02:12:51.120 –> 02:12:54.540 you can find the original out there. I was looking for it looking for a high quality



02:12:54.540 –> 02:13:01.560 version because I said the version I had was 192 kilobits second. Yeah. Ooh, quality so



02:13:01.560 –> 02:13:04.380 I couldn’t find one. I was like, Oh, I’ll make it. And then, and then I asked Reborn Identity



02:13:04.380 –> 02:13:08.900 whether I could release that and Gavin said yes. So he was very good about it. So brilliant.



02:13:08.900 –> 02:13:15.420 But yes, it seems to have not been making mashups any
