Just time for a quick update on some of the music I’ve raved about recently, along with a few other snippets from the ever expanding world of the music blog.
Scroobius Pip
Great to see a few other blogs picking up on Scroobius since I posted about him a few weeks back. Lost In Your Box wants to be his special friend, and Stop Me If Youre Heard This hailed him as a “genius new discovery“. His debut album is out now, and someone called DJ Sackboy has posted some absolutely brilliant remixes on his myspace site.
The remix of “Angles” is particularly fine, sounding like early Human League taken down an alley and given a good kicking by the cLouddead. Over the top Scroobius tells the tale of a stabbing, a suicide and a security guard, and how nothing is simple as good and evil.
MP3: “Angles (DK Sackboy remix)” – Scroobius Pip : Highly recommended (myspace link so click not right click)
Buy: Scroobius Pip’s album available from his site
More remixes over on his Myspace (including 1000 Words remix).
Mama Shamone
Taking time out from recording their debut single, and putting on some of the most entertaining live shows in London, Mama Shamone have nipped into the studio to record what can only be described as unadulterated filth.
MP3: “Grandpa” – Mama Shamone X-Rated
(Warning this is a heart-warming tale of grandparents, sex lines, and coprophilia! Be Warned!)
For more visit MamaShamone X-Rated on myspace, including: “Holcroft Heights”, and “Personal Hygiene” containing sage advice on wiping front to back.
