Trick or treat? it’s neither…
hot blood - soul dracula (mp3)
halloween brings back fond memories. what, with all that trick or treating, free sweets, the occasional bit of ‘dollar’ and of course lots of mischievous behaviour…
however, as you get older you realise that the young whipper snapper that you once were, has now turned into a right little annoying […]
Feeling introspective? take a look at your life …
bright spark - take a look at your life (mp3)
there’s very little i can say about this record that will add to the transcendent experience that will fall upon you after listening to it, so i’ll just fire a few things you need to know now …
1) this might be the strangest record you hear […]
Leave those kids alone…
snatch - another brick in the wall (mp3)
pink floyds ‘another brick in the wall’ has been covered more times than i care to remember. however, one of the better versions comes in the form of snatch and their superb slice of 80’s disco boogie…
released back in 1980 on millennium records, the snatch ‘team’ add […]
Communication throughout the (drexciyan) nation
japanese telecom - japanese animation (mp3)
we’re fans of drexciya side projects here on the beef blog and this is something from the only other confirmed member gerald donald (although this particular project is in fact uncredited and unconfirmed, but the scarily thorough drexciya research lab says it’s by him and i think it’s probably safest […]
Hikkaduwa dreams…
elephant foot - dreaming (mp3)
after seven weeks in my new found homeland, it pains me to say that i haven’t stumbled across a single 12” record, or in fact, a single legitimate cd store…
the main reason for this is simple. the piracy trade out here is rife. normally this would bother me somewhat (a […]
Greener music?
mos def - new world water (mp3)
new world water make the tide rise high,
come inland and make your house go “bye”
with mos def’s rant on the environmental and social impact of big business ringing in your ears, here’s a few music related things that both you personally and the music industry collectively could do to […]
Can’t believe my eyes…
the superimposers - seeing is believing (mp3)
i love the superimposers…ever since hearing the impeccable ‘would it be impossible’, on the jazzanova compiled ’secret love’ album, i have been hooked…
hailing from devon in the uk, the duo of dan warden & miles copeland hooked up in 2003, releasing ‘over the bridge’ as a limited debut 7″. […]
Thurston Moore Moore Moore (how do you like him)
thurston moore - silver blue (mp3)
so this week i was lucky enough to see mountain of one play a 45 minutes of what could only be described as brain-bending-intensity. our party went off without much of a hitch, and afterwards was a blur of great disco, free baltika overflowing throughout and the covering of fire […]
Look in ‘le’ mirror…
laurent voulzy - le mirror (mp3)
unfortunately, the french singer/songwriter laurent voulzy is probably best known for one of two things -
1. his terrible, 1977 rock inspired pop medley, ‘rockollection‘…
or
2. his collaboration with the unbearably annoying irish contingent, the corrs…
the latter of the two cannot be helped (or forgiven). however, if you happen to own […]
Can you keep a secret?
kylie minogue - confide in me (mp3)
i love this song.
i don’t really know what else to say.
written and produced by brothers in rhythm, ‘confide in me’ was the lead single from ms minogue’s ‘kylie minogue’ album, her first since leaving saw and signing to deconstruction in 1993 in search of artistic freedom and credibility. i […]
