Day 563


Today my copy of Full Moon Scientist’s ‘Moon-Ark Is Go’ and Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine’s ‘Let’s Get Tattoo’s’ single arrived, I made a simple edit of ‘Duelling Banjos’ and I did the G2 crossword:


Another great release from Recovered & Remastered, Full Moon Scientist’s ‘Volume 3: Moon-Ark Is Go’ is a superb ambient journey into outer space, rumbling roars as you pass by Mars and Neptune and delicate sounds as you tip-toe past the stars. An epic and beautiful journey... 


...that came with The KLF CDR featuring ‘Welcome To The Past (edit)’, a driving, head down, head nodding, foot moving journey through the KLF’s sound, starting from ambient to pure trance to stadium house and then a touch of weirdness, as if the journey ends in Stranger Things Upside Down. Track 2 is a five second snippet of a larger unreleased track. Mine is part 30 and features the Glitter Band beat from Doctorin' the Tardis and is definitely not the end of the track, so who has got the remaining 30+ tracks!?! 


I got Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine’s ‘Let’s Get Tattoo’s’ single for their cover of These Animal Men’s ‘Speeed King’, which is fun with a snarling lip. Carter don’t do anything dramatic, they don’t slow it down or anything, but they keep that sound of fun with a snarly lip and bouncing up and down in your Gazelles/DMs at the local indie disco and “Carterise” it. The other tracks are ‘Let’s Get Tattoo’s’ a jingly, jangly, bouncing indie with a dash of social commentary, ‘Especially 4 U’ is an epic sounding indie touch song with a sense of longing and regret/non-regret and the cover of David Essex’s ‘Silver Dream Machine’ is ok, but sounds slightly like it’s on Valium (although I’ve never heard the original, so I don’t know if it’s a faithful cover, or outrageously different!).

A while ago, on Youtube there was a great edit of ‘DuelingBanjos’ that looped it for about ten minutes into this beautiful hypnotic tune, but it got taken down. So, I decided to try to make my own version. I’ve basically extended the start and middle and added a touch of delay to the end of the song to make this (hope you like it):


Next up is an edit of The Stones ‘Just Wanna See His Face’.
