I mean, that Katy Perry, right in the verse about 10:16.640 –> 10:22.160 didn’t speak up, and I let them walk all over me. Yes, is me. As they say in Drag Queen World, 10:22.160 –> 10:28.640 when haters is gonna hate, just become more fabulous. And then, at the start of the section, 10:28.640 –> 10:33.920 we had the person who exclusively played the demo of that mashup on their Twitch stream, 10:33.920 –> 10:40.880 that’s iWillBattle, I Believe In A Bad Idea, Olivia Rodrigo’s new single versus 10:40.880 –> 10:45.360 The Darkness. I Believe In A Thing Called Love, and it was a weird time when I heard that, 10:45.360 –> 10:49.760 because not only do I know, because I’ve been watching Justin Hawkins Rides Again, and I 10:49.760 –> 10:56.640 had to, I’m not a big Darkness fan, but if you like Rick Beato, and that kind of music criticism, 10:56.640 –> 11:01.440 and talking about the industry, you’re loved Justin Hawkins Rides Again, except he’s less 11:01.440 –> 11:05.360 technical, more all over the shop, but very passionate views, and I do like that a lot. 11:05.360 –> 11:10.160 I think he’s a fan of Olivia Rodrigo, so I said to Will, send it over, send it to him. I think 11:10.160 –> 11:16.240 you’ll love it. That works so well. And I did have a look at the new single, and I quite like 11:16.240 –> 11:20.080 Bad Idea, but I couldn’t think of anything to work with it. When I heard that, I was like, oh, 11:20.080 –> 11:26.560 perfect. That works really well. So the histronic nature of the Olivia works well with The Darkness, 11:26.640 –> 11:31.600 which is, you need a kind of histronic vocal for a Darkness mashup. It’s, you know, that’s 11:31.600 –> 11:39.680 what The Darkness do. And at the start, we had ToTom’s Jingle for Radio Clash, Bullshit Opportunities 11:39.680 –> 11:46.960 in Drum and Bass, and yes, this is 387. It’s the Down by the River podcast, or I even learned how 11:46.960 –> 11:51.680 to say River in Irish is Abhainn. If there are any Irish listeners who are like, you said that wrong, 11:51.680 –> 11:58.560 Abhainn, because there is a Irish link to this podcast. Not only do we have Irish music later on 11:58.560 –> 12:04.800 and throughout the podcast, I’ve been doing my Ancestry shizzle. I’m doing a DNA test. That’s 12:04.800 –> 12:10.400 not going to come out for a while. There will be secrets, and my family is just a hot mess. 12:10.400 –> 12:17.120 Not in a bad way, but a bunch of troublemakers and also a shitload of secrets and blended like 12:17.120 –> 12:22.160 our family breaks genealogy of websites because they can’t really cope with all the 12:22.160 –> 12:27.680 parents with multiple marriages, half siblings, and then you throw in my mother who 12:27.680 –> 12:32.400 was adopted. You just get to the slide at that point and you’re like, yeah. So I’m doing that. 12:32.400 –> 12:38.240 I mentioned it before that it’s a bit further back than I thought it was, but I do have Irish 12:38.240 –> 12:45.920 heritage. I know cliche, I should be American. Oh, I’m Irish. No, no, it’s, but my great-great 12:45.920 –> 12:51.280 grandmother’s parents were from Offaly. There were Offaly nice people. They were from Kings 12:51.280 –> 12:56.400 County as it’s then. It’s now called County Offaly. And on the other side of the divide, 12:56.400 –> 13:05.280 my grand uncle, I think that’s right, married a woman whose parents were from Ulster. And so, 13:05.280 –> 13:09.520 yeah, I know I’ve said it, I’ve joked with them before. We have UDA and IRA in my family. That 13:09.520 –> 13:15.520 wasn’t a joke. You do know that. It’s not a joke. It wasn’t a joke. Anyway, luckily I don’t know them, 13:15.520 –> 13:20.960 but yeah, there is, I tell them we’re troublemakers. It’s interesting formalizing that, but all the 13:20.960 –> 13:26.640 other stuff that I’m finding in pictures, pictures of my, I so-so like my, I think my great-great 13:26.640 –> 13:31.920 grand uncle is very cute. I think three greats. It gets complicated with outside the family. 13:31.920 –> 13:36.480 Even like changing names, I’ve got a bunch of them that they didn’t marry. So they took some of them, 13:36.480 –> 13:41.440 took the mom’s name. I think all the women of that family took the mom’s name, but then the 13:41.440 –> 13:46.320 boys all took the father’s name. You know, that is a nightmare. But anyway, so we have an Irish 13:46.320 –> 13:49.680 team podcast. We’ve got some folk in here later on. I know some of you will be loving that. 13:50.720 –> 13:57.040 A whole bunch of mashups, Electronica, and I’m about to go off on holiday. So this podcast has 13:57.040 –> 14:04.800 been recorded a bit in a hurry because I don’t know when I’ll get to do another one because 14:04.800 –> 14:08.800 I’m going to go away for probably about at least a week. It might be longer, but I’m just sort of 14:08.800 –> 14:13.680 doing all the packing shit at the moment. And we know how stressful that was last time. So I’m 14:13.680 –> 14:17.120 actually doing a spreadsheet this time. We’re going to see if that makes it easier. It probably 14:17.120 –> 14:23.920 won’t. So in April, it was 25 years since the release of Music Has the Right to Children. And 14:23.920 –> 14:28.640 Ian Fondue reminded me of that fact on Facebook today? And I was like, oh, I really must put a 14:28.640 –> 14:34.720 Boards of Canada track in there. And it’s interesting. I have played fair bit from Boards of Canada, 14:34.720 –> 14:40.880 but not this song, which I was quite surprised. And I have to say that album when it came out in 14:40.880 –> 14:46.640 1928 was a really important one to me. And it still hasn’t really been beaten. I mean, the only 14:46.640 –> 14:51.040 people have maybe come closer are Boards of Canada themselves. And I think a lot of people have 14:51.040 –> 14:56.240 tried. I mean, look at Wikipedia, they mentioned people as a list of people I love, like Lone 14:56.240 –> 15:02.080 and Ulrich Schnauss and FourTet and a bunch of people that you’ve put you’ve heard on this podcast 15:02.080 –> 15:07.120 a lot. But you know, much as I love those people, there is only one Boards of Canada. So this is 15:07.120 –> 15:11.760 Telephasic Workshop, the Telephasic Workshop. Too much rum and coke. 50:03.280 –> 50:09.200 I do like indie dance, so I miss indie dance. 50:09.200 –> 50:15.120 That’s sort of an electro, a bit Section 25 as well. That’s Make A Dance featuring DEADLETTER, 50:15.760 –> 50:22.240 Line The Cows, Make A Dance remix, and I had another track of theirs on 6Music, and 50:22.960 –> 50:27.200 you’ll probably hear that a little bit later on, it’s more sort of punky, 50:27.200 –> 50:32.080 indie. They are from Sheffield, maybe not from Sheffield, it was South Yorkshire. They’re from South 50:32.080 –> 50:37.440 Yorkshire. Got to be right with our geography, with ancestry. It’s fun, it’s like naming differences 50:37.440 –> 50:42.720 between things. And that came out in 2022. You find that on their Bandcamp account, or Make A Dance 50:42.720 –> 50:47.600 Bandcamp account, you find it via DEADLETTER’s Bandcamp account, I think. And then before that we had 50:47.600 –> 50:53.680 Antony Szmierek, that has been rinsed incredibly so by 6Music, but you know, I know I don’t like 50:53.680 –> 50:59.280 to duplicate, but sometimes you have to repeat because it’s good. And it mentions rivers as well. 50:59.280 –> 51:03.760 Having explained the river theme down by the river, I actually weirdly am not playing Down By The 51:03.760 –> 51:09.280 River by Neil Young. I tried to find a cover I liked, and it wasn’t Big Bad, but I couldn’t really 51:09.280 –> 51:16.000 find one. But most is because I’ve been working down the river doing my usual artworks. It’s not 51:16.000 –> 51:20.640 down, it’s kind of a pun, it’s not down as interpressing. Although, you know, maybe later on. But no, 51:20.640 –> 51:25.040 mostly, ironically, through something called down by the river, this is actually quite a joyful 51:25.040 –> 51:31.360 podcast. And a reference to Nick Drake, because I’m listening to a lot of the recent compilation 51:31.360 –> 51:37.280 I’ve played some of the tracks from last time. And they’ll crop up again later. But yeah, 51:37.280 –> 51:42.400 there’s a Pseudo River theme and also a Pseudo Irish theme. I’ve only played one Irish track so far, 51:42.400 –> 51:48.400 which is, yeah, yeah. Later on, later on, later on. And then before that, we had the not Irish, 51:48.400 –> 51:55.760 but certainly very outspoken Miss Tony with Frank Ski, that’s yes. And that’s from Bitch 51:55.760 –> 52:01.760 Track II, the follow up to Tony’s Bitch Track, the one I used in the mashup recently. So when I was 52:01.760 –> 52:06.240 digging around for that, I found that one. Oh, definitely. Why have I not played this in the 52:06.320 –> 52:13.280 podcast? And then before that, we had John Rocca with I Want To Be Real, Late Night Tuff Guy edit. 52:13.280 –> 52:19.440 I like that a lot. A recent edit of John Rocca. And I didn’t know about that song. It was kind of 52:19.440 –> 52:25.040 post-freeze. He did some solo singles, not many. I want them was I want it to be real. 52:25.600 –> 52:30.400 I like they’re almost like speaking spelly type. I want it to be real, real, real. You can tell it’s 52:30.480 –> 52:36.880 like 1984, 83, 84. You can tell, you know, with a real, real, real, you know, playing the chorus 52:36.880 –> 52:43.680 up and down the keyboard without smashed glass. That’s basically 1984. That’s the music of 1984 52:43.680 –> 52:49.920 on a nutshell. But yeah, no, I like that a lot. And I do like Deep House. I mean, getting more into 52:49.920 –> 52:55.200 Deep House, I’ve never not into Deep House. I was to Deep House back in the day when it wasn’t called 52:55.200 –> 53:01.120 Deep House. I mean, Deep House is a fairly new name for it. At the time, it was just 53:01.120 –> 53:06.640 House, you know, and later on, there’s all these different variants. But certain stuff I 53:06.640 –> 53:11.520 like was more soulful, sort of lower base, that sort of Deep House template. That’s the house I 53:11.520 –> 53:16.960 liked. So, you know, naturally, I go for what people call Deep House now. And then before that, 53:16.960 –> 53:22.960 not Deep House, we had Captain Obvious (me) with Manic Cupid. Weirdly, never played that on the 53:22.960 –> 53:27.760 podcast. And I’m FIFTY FIFTY are having a moment because the excellent track in the Barbie movie, 53:27.760 –> 53:32.880 I did a mashup of that track. I was going to play it. I took it out because we don’t do the obvious 53:32.880 –> 53:36.480 on this podcast. You know, it might be good for business. It might be good for the brand. 53:36.480 –> 53:40.720 My everyone’s talking about Barbie. When I did the mashup, it was just coming out. I knew it 53:40.720 –> 53:45.040 be the big thing that it is. I’ve still not seen it. You know, whenever I was talking about it, 53:45.040 –> 53:48.640 I go and do something else. I’m not interested in constantly talking about it. This is why I’m not more 53:48.640 –> 53:55.440 successful. I just wander off of and do something else because I’m not interested in bashing on about 53:55.440 –> 53:59.840 Barbie and promoting Barbie’s movie, promoting it for Mattel or the film studio. I’m not interested 53:59.840 –> 54:04.000 in that. It’s not my thing at all. You know, I don’t mind sort of, you know, jumping on that little… 54:04.000 –> 54:09.680 It wasn’t a bandwagon because I was one of the first people to mash that Barbie Dreams track by FIFTY FIFTY. 54:09.680 –> 54:13.680 So, I wasn’t really jumping on a bandwagon, per se, because no one was jumping on that bandwagon 54:14.400 –> 54:18.720 then. But now, you know, so many people have done Barbie things. It’s all a bit like me. 54:18.720 –> 54:25.600 Yeah, I’m bored with Barbie now. So, that’s FIFTY FIFTY versus The Bangles. If you haven’t heard 54:25.600 –> 54:30.800 Cupid, it’s one of the best tracks of the year. I’m a total FIFTY FIFTY stan now. I think they want 54:30.800 –> 54:37.840 to release like six tracks and I just don’t get Blackpink and the other K-Bop acts. I don’t really 54:37.840 –> 54:43.200 get BTS or any of those things. They’re the first one I’ve gone, yeah, I get you. I get you. I 54:43.200 –> 54:47.040 like you. So, yeah, I’m very much a FIFTY FIFTY stan, which is why I’ve done two mashups of them. 54:47.920 –> 54:56.560 And then, before that, we had Irish bootlegger, ah! Alan Hurley, with Your Monkeys Like Heaven to Touch, 54:56.560 –> 55:03.520 Engelbert Humperdinck versus Pixies. That’s from his new album, Pock Rops, part of the Rock Pops 55:03.520 –> 55:10.640 series. And some really good things on that, but that’s my favourite. It’s weird when Will was 55:10.640 –> 55:15.360 going to play some bits from it and he was like, anybody, do things stand out. I hadn’t even heard 55:15.360 –> 55:19.280 I went Engelbert Humperdinck. Yeah, it’s just a skill of mine. I’m that sad. I can look at 55:19.280 –> 55:22.800 track lists of mashups and go, that’ll work, that’ll work, that won’t work, that won’t work, 55:22.800 –> 55:26.720 that won’t work. I’ve just been doing it for 20 years. And just look at them and go, in my head, 55:26.720 –> 55:31.520 I can hear the combination. Sometimes you listen to it and go, oh, it’s the reverse. Oh, I wouldn’t 55:31.520 –> 55:36.960 want to do that way. That’s quite good. Or quite often, oh dear. I usually know within a very 55:36.960 –> 55:41.600 short period whether something is, I’ll look at the combination and go, ooh, and then I’ll listen 55:41.600 –> 55:47.120 to a brief bit of Engelbert and go, yes or no. Sorry, mashup people. You’ve laboured for hours 55:47.120 –> 55:51.520 on your Epic to make sure every part is thing. But yeah, I just go a minute in and I’m like, 55:52.560 –> 55:57.120 you know, and then if he gets a rewind, this is good, I need to play this again, 55:57.120 –> 56:02.800 in full listening to all of it, it’s good. If it’s interesting, but I don’t necessarily 56:02.880 –> 56:07.120 get it. That doesn’t mean it gets thrown away. What happens is it goes into my iPod pile. 56:07.120 –> 56:12.160 There is one track in that section, which was just before that, which was MarkJMix 56:12.160 –> 56:17.040 together Celestial, Ed Sheeran versus The Farm versus Chumbawamba vs Aerosmith. 56:17.040 –> 56:21.520 And that’s one of those because I quite liked it, but I wasn’t like merely grabbed by it. 56:21.520 –> 56:26.560 But then it started haunting me on my iPod and I went, no, this is actually, I’m aware that sometimes 56:26.560 –> 56:32.320 things go from being sleeper hits and mashups. And that’s one of those. I love that greatly. 56:32.400 –> 56:36.320 It works really well. I wasn’t aware of the Ed Sheeran Celestial track. I didn’t know it was 56:36.320 –> 56:40.720 a Pokemon movie track. It’s from last year. He does mention Pokemon in the lyrics, 56:40.720 –> 56:45.840 but I was like a bit of Pachelbel. Pachelbel’s Canon, which is what The 56:45.840 –> 56:51.920 Farm’s all together now is based on. And I’ve used that in mashups before. It’s got a joyful feel 56:51.920 –> 56:56.960 and that’s one of the best things from MarkJMix ever. And I can’t remember what it came out. 56:56.960 –> 57:01.360 I’ve got a feeling it was either early 2023 or late 2022. It’s been around for a while, 57:01.360 –> 57:05.760 but I like that greatly. It has all is not lost if you do a mashup. And I don’t know, 57:05.760 –> 57:10.800 it’s not instance. And, you know, we don’t just play bangers on this, on this podcast we play. 57:10.800 –> 57:14.880 A mixture of things. I mean, I should say that I’m over from Boards of Canada and John Rocca 57:14.880 –> 57:21.200 and Frank Ski and some mashups and all over the place, but I’m just showing off. But yes, 57:21.200 –> 57:26.800 so now we’re going to play a, I say drama based mashup. I mean, it’s by Lee Spoons. It has to 57:26.800 –> 57:32.800 be drum and bass, but it’s also a winner of one of the Crumplbanger challenges. And I think you 57:32.800 –> 57:38.400 had to do tracks that were around before your birthday for the challenge. I think it was Peggy 57:38.400 –> 57:45.680 P. I’m not sure who said that child. So what he did was do a jungle track based around tunes 57:45.680 –> 57:51.600 from 1975, which was his birthday, but obviously before his birth. And it’s, 01:22:40.240 –> 01:22:46.960 That was DEADLETTER as mentioned earlier in the podcast, dEgenerate Inanimate, that’s the one 01:22:46.960 –> 01:22:53.360 there, playing alot on 6Music, I think where I first heard it. Tom Robinson filling in for 01:22:53.360 –> 01:22:58.320 Steve Lamacq played that and I was like, oh, I went into the back catalog and I would say 01:22:58.320 –> 01:23:03.680 one to watch, definitely. I like the use of words, you know, it’s not often you say, oh yeah, 01:23:03.680 –> 01:23:09.040 I like that wordplay, but I do like that wordplay a lot. And then before that, we had DubXanne 01:23:09.040 –> 01:23:14.560 with Girls Just Want To Have Fun, well it’s really Boys Just Want To Have Fun, featuring Denham. I 01:23:14.560 –> 01:23:19.840 love the gender switching in that, that’s brilliant and that’s from Pop Wave In Dub that came out in 01:23:19.840 –> 01:23:25.440 the year. And before that, we had a measure that’s been around for a while and it’s one of those 01:23:25.440 –> 01:23:32.240 always the bridemaid tracks that’s Minor Arth with the Edge Of Sloop John B. It fits the sort 01:23:32.240 –> 01:23:37.600 of watery river theme sort of. That’s the Beach Boys versus Panda Bear and Sonic Boom. I didn’t 01:23:37.600 –> 01:23:40.720 know Panda Bear and Sonic Boom did an album together, I think two albums together. Well, 01:23:41.280 –> 01:23:45.360 one was produced by Sonic Boom and then they did a collab album together. I’ve had bits of it, 01:23:45.360 –> 01:23:50.000 I need to listen to it properly. It’s weird, you hear something in the mashup and you go, oh, 01:23:50.000 –> 01:23:53.440 that sounds really good and you don’t listen to the actual thing, something’s missing. 01:23:54.080 –> 01:23:57.760 And that’s a sign of a good mashup that sounds actually gone. Oh, well that sounds, I mean, 01:23:57.760 –> 01:24:01.520 obviously Panda Bear, it’s not a massive stretch. I mean, everyone said Panda Bear 01:24:02.320 –> 01:24:07.360 is ripping off Beach Boys, especially with Panda Bear’s vocals. Yes, it’s not news, 01:24:08.000 –> 01:24:12.560 but it turns out, yeah, what’s missing from Panda Bear is the Beach Boys stuff. Who knew? 01:24:13.200 –> 01:24:17.760 But it works really well. And then before that, we had, yeah, more FIFTY FIFTY stans, 01:24:17.760 –> 01:24:22.880 that’s Loving Me. I think, I’m not sure, it’s hard to say what that’s all about. It seems to be about 01:24:22.880 –> 01:24:27.840 loving yourself, which is a very Lizzo, I shouldn’t mention Lizzo, should I? It would have been a 01:24:27.840 –> 01:24:33.280 very Lizzo thing to do. Apparently, loving yourself in the case of Lizzo is more hating 01:24:33.280 –> 01:24:38.480 other people. I agree with spite being a motivator, but that’s not really the message she was putting 01:24:38.480 –> 01:24:43.360 out, so yeah. Yeah, I think it’s about loving yourself, and I’d go with that message entirely. 01:24:43.360 –> 01:24:48.480 I’ve said before, not enough songs that’ve got a little spoken word bits in them. The spoken word 01:24:48.480 –> 01:24:55.600 revival, not, I mean, fucking, oh please no, not poetry slam shit. I mean, spoken word bits in 01:24:55.600 –> 01:25:03.040 song revival starts here. If it happens, you can blame it on me. Then before that, we had 01:25:03.680 –> 01:25:12.560 Chain Pigs, Black Sabbath versus Fleetwood Mac, that’s Danny Macabre originally, and it’s a collab with 01:25:12.560 –> 01:25:18.080 iWillBattle, because iWillBattle played it, the original mashup. There was a third thing in there. 01:25:18.080 –> 01:25:25.120 Both of us went, that doesn’t work, but that idea is brilliant. And nice to see Will went and worked 01:25:25.120 –> 01:25:29.680 with Danny Macabre in doing a new version, or I kind of, maybe it’s a reboot. I’m not sure how it 01:25:29.760 –> 01:25:34.160 happened, but sometimes reboots are good. I know there was a big debate about reboots, 01:25:34.160 –> 01:25:41.120 but sometimes reboots are for good. And yeah, it’s good to play a Danny Macabre track on the 01:25:41.120 –> 01:25:46.720 podcast. I want to watch it again. Then before that, we had, and I can’t believe this happened, 01:25:48.080 –> 01:25:53.760 I was watching Rick Beato. He did a really good interview with Daniel Lanois. Daniel Lanois 01:25:53.760 –> 01:25:57.680 did not mention his Venetian Snares album. I am disappointed in that, because I would 01:25:57.760 –> 01:26:01.520 say in every five seconds saying, you know, fuck U2, I don’t care about U2. 01:26:01.520 –> 01:26:08.400 I worked with Venetian Snares. In 2018, he did, and this is not even a lockdown album. It sounds 01:26:08.400 –> 01:26:14.000 like a lockdown album. This is 2018. He went and worked with Venetian Snares, Aaron Funk. So 01:26:14.560 –> 01:26:19.200 you have those slide guitars and very Lanois touches, and then it goes into the classic Venetian 01:26:19.200 –> 01:26:27.120 Snare’s. He’d heard his, I’m not going to say the Rossz album, the Hungarian album, it’s easy to say. 01:26:28.160 –> 01:26:32.960 by Venetian Snares, I love that. Quite rightly so. It’s an amazing album. I’m not sure it totally 01:26:32.960 –> 01:26:43.200 works, but I love the fact that they did that. It’s called Night Mxcmpv1 P74. Yeah, it’s like 01:26:43.200 –> 01:26:50.480 the Apex Twin naming schema, isn’t it? And yeah, it’s very much similar to that. It’s like slide 01:26:50.480 –> 01:26:57.520 guitar. Oh, It’s A Blue Day. You know, you know, Apollo. Here we go. And suddenly, you know, Venetian 01:26:57.520 –> 01:27:03.200 Snares crashes in. I do wonder how they worked because I’m pretty sure Venetian Snares works in 01:27:03.200 –> 01:27:08.080 MED or works in a tracker system. He might not do that now, but he used to. I have this weird image 01:27:08.080 –> 01:27:14.720 of Venetian Snares showing him an Amiga going, I do it on this and him going, what? I just got that 01:27:14.720 –> 01:27:19.680 metal image. It makes me laugh. It’s an interesting album. Check it out. And I love the fact that 01:27:19.760 –> 01:27:24.880 he went, I don’t know this music. This is completely beyond my experience. I must go and 01:27:24.880 –> 01:27:29.440 and that’s how he learns. He goes and works with people and goes, this is a new thing. I’m not 01:27:29.440 –> 01:27:34.080 going to run away from it. I want to know more about this. That’s how he’s still, you know, 01:27:34.080 –> 01:27:38.480 in demand as a producer today and as an artist. And then before that, we have The Way We Were In 01:27:38.480 –> 01:27:43.920 And I’ve actually tagged ir, wasn’t in the original. I’ve actually tagged every single artist 01:27:43.920 –> 01:27:49.360 in this. It took me ages and it’s the longest tag name in my library in probably in history. 01:27:49.360 –> 01:27:53.440 Well not in history. Gladys Night and THe Pips versus Windsor Davies and Don Estelle. 01:27:53.440 –> 01:28:00.000 That was the Jungle bit. Johnny Nash, Wings, Kraftwerk, Judge Dread, The Stylistics, Eric Clapton, 01:28:00.000 –> 01:28:05.440 10cc, the Goonies, Judy Collins, and anyone who knows me. No, maybe not last bit. 01:28:05.440 –> 01:28:09.280 I love the fact that he obviously got the bass, I think, from Judge Dread. That might be the 01:28:09.760 –> 01:28:15.920 vocal bits. But I think it’s The Stylistics is that little rave style, but he just took one of the 01:28:16.640 –> 01:28:21.680 horn sections and uses a classic, classic rave jungle technique. Yeah. So it’s like plunderphonics. 01:28:21.680 –> 01:28:27.520 It’s plunderphonics, jungle, that kind of like nostalgic jungle, plunderphonic. I heard a lot 01:28:27.520 –> 01:28:32.240 more, please, from Lee. Lee Spoons, 10,000 Spoons. Please, more of that, please. I love that. 01:28:32.240 –> 01:28:38.240 I love that because it’s a bit similar to his mixtapes, hasn’t it? He does his shows on 01:28:39.120 –> 01:28:43.920 is it, I forget the name of the radio stations. It’s noise box radio, something that I probably 01:28:43.920 –> 01:28:50.320 remember that wrong. And kind of similar, but not as layered. And I like that layering. I haven’t 01:28:50.320 –> 01:28:55.760 heard that from Lee before, but he does rhyme me on some of the chaotic, wonderfully chaotic mixes 01:28:55.760 –> 01:29:00.080 he did, although they’re more like A versus B versus C. There wasn’t like that level of 01:29:00.080 –> 01:29:05.360 medley layering and plundafonicness. And yeah, no, I like to hear more of that. I mean, I have to 01:29:05.360 –> 01:29:11.600 say that the Irish stuff is coming. It’s on the bus. It’s just late. I feel bad for trailing it now. 01:29:11.600 –> 01:29:15.840 I’m like, Tim, why did you trail this stuff when it’s right at the end? Duh, like really. 01:29:15.840 –> 01:29:22.160 So we’re going to play a track. Well, this is Viv Stanshall. And I don’t know where it’s from. 01:29:22.160 –> 01:29:26.880 I think it’s one of the radio flashes, but this is him doing a John Peel impression. 02:10:46.640 –> 02:10:53.920 That was Joni Mitchell, recorded live on the Miles of Aisles record of 1974. That’s The Circle 02:10:53.920 –> 02:11:01.600 Game. Wow, yeah. And yeah, I think I prefer that version. It’s kind of sad because there’s lots of 02:11:02.240 –> 02:11:07.360 recordings, or live recordings, of Joni Mitchell. And she’s always saying, come on, 02:11:07.360 –> 02:11:11.520 sing along. But the problem is, her songs were actually quite hard to sing even for… Well, 02:11:11.520 –> 02:11:14.800 she used to sing when I was five. She didn’t realise that other people can’t sing her songs. 02:11:16.160 –> 02:11:19.840 As if they know them. That’s one of the simpler ones. But that was recorded 02:11:20.480 –> 02:11:26.240 in Los Angeles. And it’s about Neil Young, because apparently, Neil, fellow Canadian, 02:11:26.240 –> 02:11:30.320 Neil Young was very happy. So there is a Neil Young Down By The River link. There is. 02:11:31.280 –> 02:11:36.880 That he’d reached 20, and he couldn’t go to the teeny-bopper clubs, because apparently he had 02:11:36.880 –> 02:11:40.240 age restrictions, which sounds a bit crazy. I had the idea of clubs with age restrictions, 02:11:40.240 –> 02:11:45.760 like, oh, you have to be under 21 or whatever. And he wrote a song about that. And she wrote 02:11:45.760 –> 02:11:50.560 that song as a response saying, what piffle, you know, you’ve got other things you can do. 02:11:50.560 –> 02:11:54.560 It’s not your end of your life at 20. What silly, silly silliness. Yeah, it’s talked to me about 02:11:54.560 –> 02:12:04.160 And then one of the Irish tracks, that’s Cara Dillon, who is from…Dungiven in London Derry, 02:12:04.160 –> 02:12:08.880 which, as I say, the… Some part of my family comes from Ulster. So I don’t know where in Ulster. 02:12:09.440 –> 02:12:15.520 Ulster’s a big place. And that’s Blue Mountain River. And that’s from her 2001 02:12:16.240 –> 02:12:22.640 eponymous solo debut, Cara Dillon, which I must have heard back in the day. I’m pretty sure I did, 02:12:22.640 –> 02:12:27.120 because I did know her cover of Black is the Colour, which I played at the start. 02:12:27.120 –> 02:12:31.760 And for some reason, I assumed I played it, because that’s one of my favourite songs of all time. 02:12:31.760 –> 02:12:37.760 And weirdly, I never did. I don’t know what happened there. And that’s a self-penned song 02:12:37.760 –> 02:12:45.280 with Seth Lakeman. And yeah, it’s really, really a beautiful song. Very much about similar to loving 02:12:45.280 –> 02:12:51.200 me about, you know, going out to nature and learning to love yourself in the Blue Mountain River. 02:12:51.200 –> 02:12:56.240 But obviously anything that’s got lyrics about uncertain times is always 02:12:56.240 –> 02:13:03.120 resonating with me at the moment. And before that, we had what’s more Irish than a song in Gaelic 02:13:03.760 –> 02:13:12.400 that’s Clannad with Coinleach Glas An Fhómhair, I think. I looked it up. Yes, you never believe how 02:13:12.400 –> 02:13:19.120 Fhómhair, which is autumn, is spell. It does not look like what it is. And even, I would say, 02:13:19.120 –> 02:13:24.720 Coinleach, being more, you know, a true Scottish, not Coinleach, but, you know, Coinleach. 02:13:24.720 –> 02:13:31.760 It’s not anyway. Glas is glass. But what it means is The Green Fields Of Autumn. And there is a link. 02:13:31.760 –> 02:13:37.520 And I found this when I was actually putting this just recording it. I was like, King of Spain. 02:13:37.520 –> 02:13:43.200 I was reading about County Offaly, otherwise formally known as Kings County, where apparently, 02:13:43.200 –> 02:13:48.960 if it’s true, if the ancestry.co.uk and all people’s trees are lying, which is always a big 02:13:48.960 –> 02:13:54.320 thing. But that said, I do actually know from my dad, we have Irish families. I know that part 02:13:54.320 –> 02:14:00.960 of the family is Irish. My great-great-grandmother, her parents were Irish. I knew there was a link 02:14:00.960 –> 02:14:07.840 there on that side. So it’s not like, oh, shock. I thought it was closer. I knew it wasn’t a grandmother 02:14:07.840 –> 02:14:12.640 because otherwise, I would be off and getting an Irish passport in a fucking millisecond. 02:14:13.280 –> 02:14:17.680 I knew it was further than that. It was a great-great grandmother. But, 02:14:18.400 –> 02:14:25.120 yeah, the King’s County is named after the King of Spain. This is all to do with Jacobite rebellion. 02:14:25.120 –> 02:14:32.880 And it got renamed to Offaly, which is kind of like the original name. It’s not actually the same, 02:14:32.880 –> 02:14:38.720 exactly the same, but the area was an older region. But yeah, that song mentions the King of Spain 02:14:38.720 –> 02:14:44.480 because it’s about a woman, probably. It’s always hard to tell with traditional songs because that’s 02:14:44.480 –> 02:14:52.640 18th century, supporting her lover who’s fighting abroad. I think France. So it suggests it’s probably 02:14:52.640 –> 02:14:59.280 about The Wild Geese who were the Jacobite army who went off to France to fight after The Glorious 02:14:59.280 –> 02:15:04.160 Revolution, in quotes, the invasion, the Dutch invasion, which is what it was. It’s interesting 02:15:04.160 –> 02:15:09.040 how they wrote the history books to say it was a Glorious Revolution. And it was all welcome. 02:15:09.040 –> 02:15:13.520 And it was like, no, if they were totally welcome, why did they bring all of their army with them? 02:15:14.080 –> 02:15:19.760 In many boats. If it was a formality, why would you bring your 02:15:21.120 –> 02:15:27.520 navy with you? Which is what happened a certain year. But because of that, the agreement was they’d 02:15:27.520 –> 02:15:34.720 left. And so it mentions the King of Spain. So I think it’s probably about that sort of 02:15:34.720 –> 02:15:39.840 period. It’s debated, but yeah, it mentions the King of Spain. So that is definitely the King’s 02:15:39.840 –> 02:15:45.280 Counties. There’s a link there. And that’s from Magical Ring from 1983. I could have played the 02:15:45.280 –> 02:15:50.000 original version because that’s not the original version they did. They did on their second ever 02:15:50.000 –> 02:15:59.040 album. I think 1973 or four, somewhere about them, they did a cover. And I prefer the 1983. 02:15:59.040 –> 02:16:03.680 It’s production’s a bit better, but they’re both really, really good. It’s just a haunting song. 02:16:03.680 –> 02:16:07.760 Songs about autumn usually are. I mean, it figures because my favourite song is Autumn Leaves, 02:16:07.760 –> 02:16:13.840 which is very Wistful. And then also wistful was DDir Hank on Drugs. Well, not that title. 02:16:14.880 –> 02:16:21.200 Bad Habits in Hotel California, Eagles versus Ed Sheeran. I think Sir Hank listens to his mashups 02:16:21.200 –> 02:16:25.120 on speakers. Just listen to the start of that mashup. I had noticed that before and I was 02:16:25.120 –> 02:16:28.880 going, why is that panned like that? I think you don’t listen to your mashups on headphones 02:16:28.880 –> 02:16:33.200 Sir Hank. I’m not sure what that was done probably about when Bad Habits came out because 02:16:33.200 –> 02:16:38.480 it seems to be Sir Hank, it seems to mostly seems to work on new pop as it arrives. 02:16:39.200 –> 02:16:44.720 However, which you can all find on remix.audio as he’s uploaded everything he’s done, which is 02:16:44.720 –> 02:16:50.000 amazing. It was hard to find before, as I know from my mashup, which I accidentally rebooted him. 02:16:50.640 –> 02:16:56.960 But yeah, it’s nice to hear all this back catalog of work. And there’s a few bits which 02:16:56.960 –> 02:17:02.160 I accidentally reboot some other things, which is, I hope you didn’t mind that, but if he does, 02:17:02.160 –> 02:17:06.640 he’s actually actually rebooted a few things as well, I’ve noticed. So yeah, it goes around. 02:17:06.640 –> 02:17:12.640 We all do it at some point. Then before that, we had Famous Blue Cable with River Man Featuring 02:17:12.640 –> 02:17:20.480 Feist. That’s from The Endless Coloured Ways. The song was new released back in May. 02:17:20.480 –> 02:17:28.400 And I call my River Man series after that song. It’s very mystical about that song. It’s very 02:17:28.400 –> 02:17:34.400 strange. He was studying English at Cambridge. So I actually worked out where the Lilac Time comes 02:17:34.400 –> 02:17:37.760 from, because I was looking into it, because it’s always struck me as a very interesting phrase, 02:17:37.760 –> 02:17:43.120 but an odd phrase. And a lot of the stuff you look online refers to the Lilac Time, the band 02:17:43.120 –> 02:17:47.600 who were named after it. But they don’t say where it came from. It came from Alfred Noyes. He did a 02:17:47.600 –> 02:17:54.000 song called The Barrel Organ. Well, it’s a poem called The Barrel Organ. And it got made into a song 02:17:54.000 –> 02:18:00.480 called Go Down to Kew in Lilac Time, which the poem mentioned Lilac Time, and that’s the probably 02:18:00.480 –> 02:18:04.800 the earliest I’ve come across it. Go Down To Kew in Lilac Time, and Lilac Time, and Lilac Time, 02:18:04.800 –> 02:18:09.600 Go Down To Kew in Lilac Time. It isn’t far from London. And you shall wander hand in hand with love in 02:18:09.600 –> 02:18:14.960 summer’s wonderland. Go Down To Kew in Lilac Time. It isn’t far from London. Although it says it’s a 02:18:14.960 –> 02:18:19.200 poem, it is written like a song. I don’t know whether that’s the actual song that was influenced me 02:18:19.360 –> 02:18:25.120 anyway. That is where that came from most likely, because it would have studied Alfred Noyes. 02:18:25.760 –> 02:18:31.440 Oh, mad. Yeah, I know of Alfred Noyes, because he wrote a poem which we studied at school called 02:18:31.440 –> 02:18:36.880 The Highwayman, which became the inspiration for the video. And probably this song, but definitely 02:18:36.880 –> 02:18:41.200 the video Fleetwood Mac Everywhere. I want to see with you everywhere that video is when I saw it 02:18:41.200 –> 02:18:46.000 I freaked out like that’s The Highwayman. It’s a fairly, it was a Dark and Stormy Night type 02:18:46.720 –> 02:18:50.640 poem. The story’s quite good. And yeah, it’s the same guy. That’s interesting, because we had 02:18:50.640 –> 02:18:55.840 Fleetwood Mac in this mix as well. It all connects in weird ways. Yeah, I was wondering if it was 02:18:55.840 –> 02:19:02.800 the same Alfred Noyes. So before the Famous Blue Table, we had Joni Mitchell again with the Dawn 02:19:02.800 –> 02:19:09.360 Treader. That’s the 2021 remaster that came out on Song to a Seagull in 1968. And originally it was 02:19:09.360 –> 02:19:13.920 recorded by David Crosby, RIP. And then there’s some thought that the Dawntreader is actually 02:19:13.920 –> 02:19:18.640 about his boat, because he had a boat with which you used to take people out of sailings is likely 02:19:18.640 –> 02:19:23.600 he took Johnny out on that sailing and then you each other. But he got her to sing into the strings 02:19:23.600 –> 02:19:28.800 of a piano. And that meant the problem with his they had to cut off and was very dull. And so 02:19:28.800 –> 02:19:33.760 they’ve been trying to work with that. I think I think that remaster is do some digital techniques 02:19:33.760 –> 02:19:37.520 to bring it bring it out. And it’s not bad. I mean, I’ve heard other versions which are very 02:19:37.520 –> 02:19:43.360 kind of like muffled. Good idea, though, but hard to do. I mean, unless I’m singing very strongly, 02:19:43.360 –> 02:19:48.000 you’re probably not going to reverberate the strings. But yes, he died recently, didn’t he? 02:19:48.000 –> 02:19:54.640 Then before that, we had a very strange but wonderful cover of Enya, who were in who who 02:19:54.640 –> 02:20:00.960 was in Clannad for a short period and is the sister of Clannad. That’s Watermark by Ampersandman. 02:20:00.960 –> 02:20:10.960 And that’s from the PRF Premier Rock Forum monthly series from October 2022. They did Enya. And so 02:20:10.960 –> 02:20:14.640 Watermark is one of my favourite songs. It’s one of my favourite songs of Enya’s. 02:20:14.640 –> 02:20:19.440 And I like how wonky that cover is. But apart from the drums, the drums are terrible. But the fact 02:20:19.440 –> 02:20:24.560 you’re doing like heavy metal version of Enya, and there’s not even the first heavy metal Enya, 02:20:24.560 –> 02:20:28.400 there’s lots of heavy metal Enya surprisingly. There’s a lot of love for Enya in the heavy metal 02:20:28.400 –> 02:20:34.160 community and the rock community. Strangely, you wouldn’t think so. Have I played the Enya versus 02:20:34.160 –> 02:20:39.040 Nirvana? Not sure if I’ve played it on the I think I have. But yeah, there is such things. But I like 02:20:39.120 –> 02:20:43.520 how wonky it is. It sounds like it’s going to fall apart any second. It’s very indie, but 02:20:44.320 –> 02:20:49.920 yeah, it’s charmingly, it’s charmingly falling apart. Then before that I’d put Cara Dillon again, 02:20:49.920 –> 02:20:57.840 as I mentioned before, Black is the Colour from 2001’s Cara Dillon. Then we had another song from 02:20:57.840 –> 02:21:03.680 the Nick Drake compilation that’s Aurora with Pink Moon. I really don’t know what Pink Moon is about. 02:21:03.680 –> 02:21:08.880 That is a really weird song. It’s a really weird album. It’s very apocalyptic. And I’ve looked 02:21:08.960 –> 02:21:13.600 and looked. Unlike the lIlac Time, I’ve looked and looked and I’ve never found that Pink Moon is 02:21:13.600 –> 02:21:19.040 usually a good tidying, a red moon possible. I don’t know who’s alluding to a red moon, but yeah, 02:21:19.760 –> 02:21:27.040 Pink Moon is going to get you. And then before that we had µ-ziq with 1977 from the album 02:21:27.040 –> 02:21:32.400 in 1977, which is a recent release. I heard one of those tracks from Dandelion Radio. 02:21:32.400 –> 02:21:36.720 I didn’t know µ-ziq had an album out. I was like, thank you very much. And then at the start section 02:21:36.720 –> 02:21:41.920 we had Viv Stanshall with doing a John Peel impression. And I’d have to say, yeah, the Dawn 02:21:41.920 –> 02:21:46.480 Treader and all that sea stuff. It’s not supposed to be a river. It’s, I think, me subconsciously 02:21:46.480 –> 02:21:53.600 thinking about going to the cliffs and not the cliffs of Dover and hopefully drawing and painting 02:21:53.600 –> 02:21:58.880 them. I’m planning to go to Kimmeridge and finally maybe do some wild camping. I’m planning to do a 02:21:58.880 –> 02:22:05.440 wild camp on that and finish that connection, that bit that I haven’t done, which is the five miles 02:22:05.440 –> 02:22:12.000 around Swanage to Kimmeridge or around that thing. But this time take my tent with me. 02:22:12.000 –> 02:22:16.000 This is what I was always planning to do. The little tent is very claustrophobic. So I’ve 02:22:16.000 –> 02:22:21.680 actually got a almost the same weight they released a two person one. They just use us both 02:22:21.680 –> 02:22:25.600 with a walking sticks and I’ve got some lighter walking sticks as well. I did promise not to 02:22:25.600 –> 02:22:29.920 spend any more money this year. I was doing that because a lot of the stuff I’m using this 02:22:29.920 –> 02:22:34.880 year I got last year and it’s been a gradual process. I did cave on the tent because like, 02:22:34.880 –> 02:22:41.040 I saw a bargain and it’s not very much. It was a Chinese tent, but it was I think a good buy 02:22:41.040 –> 02:22:45.920 because the problem was that really small one that one person one is if it chucks it down, 02:22:45.920 –> 02:22:50.240 you can’t stay inside it and then you get wet outside. If you’re doing what I’m doing, which is 02:22:50.240 –> 02:22:54.720 sometimes I’ve got a base camp. Sometimes I’m planning to take this home with me and take 02:22:54.720 –> 02:22:59.680 everything with me and walk, which is going to be hard. I’m not planning to do long distance like 02:22:59.680 –> 02:23:05.120 that because with a big pack on it’s quite hard to walk more than a few miles if you’re not used 02:23:05.120 –> 02:23:08.960 to it. But I’ve done it before, but not recently. So it might give me a heart attack. I might die, I don’t 02:23:08.960 –> 02:23:13.920 know, but I think it’ll be all right. But that was always the intention to get the stuff down 02:23:13.920 –> 02:23:18.800 and the weight of things and I had such shitty, shitty equipment. I had such heavy, shitty equipment 02:23:18.800 –> 02:23:24.560 like military rucksacks that didn’t really fit me properly and that kind of thing and I’ve slowly, 02:23:24.560 –> 02:23:29.840 slowly because, you know, you could spend tens of thousands or thousands to try and get this 02:23:29.840 –> 02:23:34.720 sort of equipment and yeah, there’s some ways of doing it like, you know, second hand and all 02:23:34.720 –> 02:23:40.160 sales and Chinese stuff and whatever. But it’s still, you know, you can’t just, you know, 02:23:40.160 –> 02:23:45.840 if you’re getting a down bag or a light tent, you’re not going to get it for 30 quid down the 02:23:45.840 –> 02:23:51.760 market. Unfortunately, when that’s done, hopefully, if I don’t fall off a cliff, I’m going to head 02:23:51.840 –> 02:23:59.280 down to my old stomping ground from last year and to the, you know, Lyme Regis area, Cannington 02:24:00.080 –> 02:24:05.760 site. I’m not sure if I’m going to go to the Weymouth site. I love Eweleaze, but one, it’s rather 02:24:05.760 –> 02:24:12.480 full of kids and two, it’s quite expensive really. I mean, it’s not bad, I suppose, but it’s easy to 02:24:12.480 –> 02:24:16.640 spend a lot of money on site and not know because of the tappy tappy. I want to try and use as much 02:24:16.640 –> 02:24:21.600 as cash as possible this time. It’s convenient, but it’s hard to monitor your spending like that. 02:24:21.600 –> 02:24:26.640 So I might just skip the whole Weymouth thing, go all the way down to the Lyme Regis and on to 02:24:26.640 –> 02:24:32.720 Cannington. Anyway, enough of my travel. So hopefully, I should get a little bit of jaunt for, 02:24:32.720 –> 02:24:38.480 I might be a smaller jaunt. And I’d say this time, the experience has been that the odd jaunts are 02:24:38.480 –> 02:24:44.480 really good and the even jaunts are a disaster because jaunt two is terrible. So this time, 02:24:44.560 –> 02:24:48.960 I’ll make sure. I’ve got some extra cream, I’ve taken my extra cream this time, so I don’t 02:24:48.960 –> 02:24:54.560 repeat what happened with the sunburn. And also, I’m taking warm clothes because last time I didn’t 02:24:54.560 –> 02:25:00.000 take warm enough clothes and I froze even though it’s still early in the year, so it’s not too bad, but 02:25:00.000 –> 02:25:07.120 yeah. So we’ll see, we’ll see. The idea is just like a week or so, possibly longer, 02:25:07.120 –> 02:25:12.960 depends how I go, but just a week, not like the three-week extrapaganza. I was planning to go 02:25:12.960 –> 02:25:19.120 abroad, but I think it’d be too expensive. Also, because I can go to these places out of season, 02:25:19.120 –> 02:25:24.000 it makes sense to go to them out of season when it’s cheaper and also there’s less kids and 02:25:24.000 –> 02:25:30.240 shit, you know, so. So I’m going to play out with the track by Katherine Priddy and I was reading 02:25:30.240 –> 02:25:35.760 the blurb about her and she’s inspired by Nick Drake, which is interesting because she 02:25:35.760 –> 02:25:42.160 did one of the best songs on The Endless Coloured Ways, which is a song from Family Tree, which 02:25:42.160 –> 02:25:49.360 Family Tree was the release of Nick’s tape collection. He used to do a lot of recording on 02:25:49.360 –> 02:25:53.840 reel-to-reel tape, I think. I think it’s pre-cassette. No, it’s about the time the cassette came in, 02:25:53.840 –> 02:25:58.720 but I think it’s reel-to-reel, quite low quality. And so it’s nice to hear this song 02:25:59.360 –> 02:26:08.240 in a form that is, yeah, sort of a good production. And yes, I hate to leave a podcast 02:26:08.240 –> 02:26:13.680 that’s full of mostly joy, you know, more down note, but it was Down By The River. 02:26:13.680 –> 02:26:16.240 So this is, I Think They’re Leaving Me Behind.
