Shits & Giggles!
artwork by David Campbell, who won the cover challenge.
Congratulations David, and thanks for your work!
Hope everything is fine, and the season is satisfying your needs.
Delighted to announce that “Shits & Giggles” is now available for download!
If you don’t already know, it’s a compilation of, well, tunes that just didn’t fit the album we we’re working on at the time for one reason or another – there’s a range of styles and tracks dating back to 2004, including two of the tracks that didn’t make the cut for “A Night At The Hip-Hopera” due to time constraints.
So yeah, 20 tracks in just under 80 minutes (and this is the last time we squeeze everything into a CD sized package – that seems very 20th century now, don’t you think?), mixed a little more gently than usual to allow for more convenient shuffle-play, as we’re not sure if you’d want to pound through all 20 in one session, although we’re not responsible for anything untoward that happens if you do, okay?
As we’ve got your attention, don’t forget our upcoming shows:
27th August : Festinho festival, Herefordshire, UK (AV set)
28th August : SECRET AV SHOW at a UK Festival (not allowed to say!)
17th September : Bootie Rio, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil (DJ set)
More shows to come, but we’re always on the lookout for places to play – if you’re interested please let us know – where there’s a will there’s a way!
Hope you enjoy the album :)

Smashing! I’m really taken with “Lung Cancer”. Can you divulge the source of the non-Radiohead bits? Officially it’s listed as “Radiohead vs Amerie J”… and since I’m curious I tried googling for the latter–to no avail. Is it a joke? Original material? Am I merely dense?
Thanks and keep up the amazing work!
