Andrew Weatherall - Disco Umpty Number Six

A brand new piece of dubbed-out disco magic from Mr W, hot off the press from the 6 Mix below.

I thought this was so good that it deserved it's own post, and I know that you will all buy it anyway when it comes out (eventually), won't you?

There's a great noise on it that sounds like when it's game over on Pac Man - you'll know what I mean when you hear it. Add in a great orchestral-synth-cum-strung-out-guitar breakdown, a wee bit more of the Pac Man noise then it's back to business. File this one in the same drawer as 'Brother Johnson' and 'Uptown'. Aye, it's that good. One for the next Boardroom release?

Anyone in the Glasgow area MUST get themselves down to the Sub Club on 26th March (ie just over a couple of weeks), for a double-header of Andrew Weatherall and Ivan Smagghe as part of the Smirnoff-sponsored 'So Slam Club' malarkey that's going on this month.

Hats off, sir. Another great year beckons...

Cheers for this mate, glad I can get this as a single track on the i-pod. Thought UR's Transition then this was top class. I've bought tix for Andrew and Ivan, I'll need to shout you a beer for all your hard work

Ta for this, am off to see Lord Wevvers tomorrow night (for the first time in a good while) & am guessing this'll be on his playlist. Nice innit?

I really don't know what I'd do without your posts Moggie, they really do make my days that much brighter (especially the Weatherall stuff!)

Not a bad track but not great either. There's something a bit dated about Weatherall's own music. It reminds me of Sven Vaths stuff in the early nineties. You have the feeling with Weatherall if he just decided to not give a fuck and went for it he would probably make some good music.

Cheers, digs. No idea but he's due something fairly soon I'd reckon.
