Meatskull..Because Life’s Too Short For Boring Music


Bleeding Panda presents Soundtrack For Naked Runners

“Filled with french perverse 70’s LSD funk, some monstrous jazz + samba flipouts, several cult and very influental songs mixed with ridicule of The Beatles and the non-existent hippie-parody Dewey Cox himself.

This small collection went through some big changes over time. At first, I made it the most obvious way – indie experiments with japanese and NY noise bands (OOIOO, Optimo, Pullsallama etc.) but that was simply to simple, raw and it was’nt “romantic” and humorous enough. So I basically shifted entirely from that direction into sex, retro, french, jazz, kinky, ridiculous direction and tried to make a sort of a “soundtrack” that is not that tough at rhythm but more into the freedom loving atmosphere of the swinging sex organs.

Standout tracks
, and maybe tracks that make this comp a must have (for those who never heard them before) are definitely: the gorgeous and life-fulfiling, jamming Andrew Bird’s Coney Island Shuffle, Janko Nilovic’s by far the best composition Xenos Cosmos from 1972 (the last 1 minute of the song is golden and the rest of his work is mostly crap), magickal Senor Coconut’s – Rydeen, of course Serge Gainsbourg’s cult classic Bonnie and Clyde, Sohail Rana’s Soul Sitar – a perverse take on bollywood humour (Guys from Ninja Tune label had lots of fun remixing this gem) and the infinite Piggies - spitting humour from The Beatles. Also, I should mention Marsha Hunt with her nipple shaking (Oh No! Not) The Beast Day, a strangely missed groovy 70’s funk club hit.” – Bleeding Panda

Phillip B. Klingler presents Jim O’Rourke Mixtapes from 1989

Jim

PBK recently posted these personal mixtapes made for him by a young Jim O’Rourke. It’s not often you get to hear an artists influences in such a direct manner, so these are pretty special.

“”Rummaging through boxes I came across two mixtapes sent to me by Jim O’Rourke in 1989. At the time, Jim was an eager 19 year old music student at DePaul University. He also performed and recorded in my friend Dan Burke’s industrial music project: Illusion Of Safety.

Jim would call me on the phone every week or two when I lived in California. We had many conversations about music, discussing different genres/composers and he’d send mixtapes and cd’s for me to hear some of the things he’d been listening to. He was a huge fan of Van Dyke Parks’ 1968 LP, “Song Cycle“. He was also very excited, at the time, about Godflesh who appear on the C-60 tape here. He sent me Godflesh’sStreetcleaner” cd and compared them to “Red”-era King Crimson.

We were quite close for a couple of years. He contributed a beautiful solo track to my “Assemblage” comp. tape in 1990. Later he even asked to produce an album for me, but I declined, mainly because I couldn’t see what role a “producer” would play in creating one of my albums.

O’Rourke sent me several mixtapes of electroacoustic music, below are the playlists and links for two of these, they give some insight into his listening tastes in the late 80’s, long before he worked with Faust, Wilco or Sonic Youth. There’s a lot of great stuff on these tapes. The Parmegianni and Bayle tracks are absolutely awesome. The Paul Dolden compositions are impressive, his compositional method is, apparently, quite rigorous as he uses up to 400 overdubs to achieve his massive sounds. The Robert Ashley track, with it’s psycho-sexual overtones, is unique and haunting. Enjoy these in typical mixtape style, with no track separation!” – PBK via The Sound Genetic
