“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

What a combo – The Black Dog and a selection of stunning Kraut grooves. You know it’s gonns be a winner.
“It’s now so hard to imagine a time when there was no synths and a time when musicians/artists didn’t stick to the tried and tested formulas that would become rockisms of modern music. Many of the original Krautrockers paved the way for much modern electronic music, influencing all that bands that influenced us in turn.
We’ve gone for a pretty wide mix of artists and included people like Stockhausen and Nono because they are pretty much the godfathers of everything electronic. We hope you enjoy it.” – The Black Dog

Here’s the second Okto-post of the day. This is the first in a series of 3 parts of one long dj set made during the morning of June 9, 2002 – the day after the night before. The scenario involved around a dozen horizontal bodies lazing around the Oktopad, sipping coffees and chatting/laughing while I spun these tunes on the turntables. Strictly a vinyl affair with no editing etc., these sets are from another time in my life that I recall with great affection, especially the people who were present on the day.
No tracklisting, but don’t let that scare you. It’s all pretty downbeat and genre hopping, and features a diverse range of artists including The Orb, Nick Drake, Red Snapper, Don Cherry, One Dove, Autechre, Alton Ellis, Fila Brazillia, Quincey Jones and so on and on. I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as i enjoyed making them. – Meatskull

Here’s the first in a series of mixes I made at The Oktopad in Surry Hills around 2001-2003 that Mr.J Oktopus kindly dug out of his archives and gave me to upload on the site. Zulu Chalice is a strictly reggae affair covering an array of styles – dub, rockers, rocksteady and more. There’s no tracklisting but some of the artists include Jacob Miller, Prince Allah, Carlton & The Shoes, The Congos and many more.
catch a fire and enjoy the Chalice. – Meatskull
