Bug poweder dust and mug-warm jism...

[the-e-dealer]

Mugwump Jism !

Secreted by the mysterious Mugwumps of Interzone, Mugwump Jism is a colorless liquid that produces intoxicating effects on humans.

In fact, Mugwump Jism actually comes in two finely distinguished varieties, with similar effects. Strangely, what excites the Mugwumps (who are sentient bipeds of about the same size as humans, and appear to be some form of amphibian) to produce this drug is artistic creation, especially of a literary variety.

However, they do produce it even without this inspiration, albeit at a slower rate, and it is a sad but not uncommon sight in Interzone to see a chained Mugwump surrounded by a small circle of addicts sucking upon its excretions.

[Gingerbeer]

Youre right! I think youve been reading too much Burroughs however. Are you listening to the K&D sessions?

[the-e-dealer]

Are there new ones ? Someone gave me a copy in 2000. Lovely Stuff!

[Gingerbeer]

Not unless someone remixed the K&D sessions. Otherwise, I think its Kruder who has his own stuff out under the name Tosca, but I dont know if he has released anything lately. Chocolate Elvis is a good one of his. This makes me feel old, I loved this set in college.

[the-e-dealer]

Thanks I will listen out for it!

[Gingerbeer]

One of my faves.... Cut Chemist and DJ Shadow "Product Placement" Listenable here: http://www.discogs.com/DJ-Shadow-Cut-Chemist-Product-Placement/release/209962

WARNING: Do NOT get your freak on while listening to this album. When the "Cookin' With Gas" section comes on, it will kill all passions instantly. I speak from experience.

GB, what does that mean? It's either a case of me being too old or you using an Americanism I guess. Either way I'd like to know.

[Gingerbeer]

It means dont use that album as background music when youre having sex.

[Alan Medic]

Oh right. I'll put that on my list of one's to avoid during that particular act.

My little pony

Cookin with gas

This is a later version when the pony had grown up.

Frank Zappa- Man from Utopia

Technically perfect but slightly jarring

[Gingerbeer]

Alan, that clip had me backing up from my computer, shaking my head, arms outstretched in denial... A little warning would have been appreciated.

Thanks to the Guardian Magazine quiz today -

 

[aquarius moon]

'Exile' by Hurts.

Their first album two years ago was brilliant & had amazing reviews.

This is their follow-up, 80's/synth/pop/indie?

Don't really know as they are a combination of all 4.

It is quite dark & deep & depressing,

Which I can relate to & why I love it so much.

new john grant album

[El Pibe]

Unkown Mortal Orchestra.

How is the new John Grant, his debut made for some uneasy listening, that album was clearly a massive act of catharsis.

[titch juicy]

I thought the first album was outstanding

This is quite different- no midlake- which was always going to make a difference to how it sounded, there's a more electronic sound to a lot of it; but lyrically he's covering similar ground. Angry and bitter, unsurprisingly.

[El Pibe]

I wanted to like queen of denmark more than I did, ot was more something to be admired than enjoyed, though there are some beautiful stand out tunes.

Will check on spotify before committing to a second.

Just got Help She Can't Swim's second and final album from an amazon partner for 96p, joy!!
