Transglobal Underground - International Times

"Ex-peri-mental, ex-peri-mental, ex-peri-mental, ex-peri-mental"

That was the refrain of the Justin Robertson remix of this tune from 1995. I was never a great fan of TGU but this remix got played to death in the mid 90s. Coincided with me getting my decks, and it was a piece of piss to fanny about with so go figure...

Aki from Fun-Da-Mental (and early goth favourites Southern Death Cult from back in 1982!) gets in on the remix action on the flip, which is all a bit worldy music with a breakbeat. It's got some good backwards noises on it though, and a wee bit of flange sneaking in so it's ticking the right boxes round these parts. Does go on a bit, mind (nearly 13 minutes!), so I'd personally stick to the A-side and ditch this one.

Mind how I said things would return to normal this week? I've got a cunt of a day at work tomorrow and won't get back home till at least 9:30pm which means no posts. See you Wednesday...

Bless you Moggieboy! Is it just me, or is Impossible Broadcasting one of the 10 most underrated discs of recent memory?

Blimey. I was only listening to this on Sunday.

Very suprised that you didn't even mention the Weatherall mix! Or more accurately, the Sabres Of Paradise Haunted Dancehall mix. Rather good if I recall correctly... can dig it out if you've not got it...

Ah, a friend had the Weatherall
mix but for some unknown reason I got this one instead! That would be great to hear again. moggieboy(at)gmail(dot)com - cheers!

The Haunted Dancehall mix is coming to Acid Ted when I get to the letter T.
