she's a salvador immigrant, head through a thin wall.a frail hooker, holding her carnal walls.gleaming sky scraper bunker he looked down.laugh hysterically and then he spread around.on hoover street, then he must be alone.the precious little kid cashed the woes.salvadorian girl, she kind of made you spill.her brother mario got shot 4 times in da head.now see poor mario, he caught a hot one. through the lung, now he's done so God bless the man.cocaine moved through that system, like a river forever winding.to the last party of the lower class.even distance, just a bunch of kids who don't wanna finish last.now see the market place has changed the weight of the scale.you either get out and die or go to jail.and your best intentions splinter and frail.and a few weeks of promises and attempts to fail.it's a glass-pipe murder.glass-pipe murder.oh yeah .glass-pipe murder.it's a glass-pipe murder.oh yeah!!! (oh yeah!!!)(oh yeah!!!)(oh yeah!!!)they kick a bottle of beer and a letter.simple things made mario feel better.you see it falls on you and it falls on me.Self-annihilation, catastrophe .two packs of cigarettes for two dollars and seventy cents and a bottle of wine that's been opened and he said, "why do i do this?" a shiver through his body like a bottle of CC.not encouraging reality or me.he said, "It's who I am baby, back to it." off the deep end the record changed .you see, no one stood up and cheered for him .everyone sat down with something that happened.began... to happen.it's an old school dorm mystery.and the handcuffs bleed... it's a glass-pipe murder.glass-pipe murder.oh yeah. glass-pipe murder. it's a glass-pipe murder. oh yeah!!! (oh yeah!!!) (oh yeah!!!) (oh yeah!!!) who was the killer?... it's in the....

this is a tune. GOBBLE GOBBLE thrashes the pixies' 'where is my mind?' with his own signature sound but he's managed to keep the same feeling in the song. the raddest cover of a huge track. more GOBBLE GOBBLE here.



the original and two more great but entirely different covers:

DARWIN DEEZ - scar tissue (red hot chilli peppers cover).mp3

SILVER SWANS - name born from comic books (the silver swans are from the wonder woman series, each has the ability to create powerful sound waves with her voice). san francisco collaboration between producer/musician jon waters and vocalist ann yu. really atmospheric music and yu's ethereal vocals give it some drama. 'secrets' is an epic, dreamy lullaby.
FFO (for fans of): the knife, the xx

THE NAKED AND FAMOUS - these guys from auckland are the business. if you haven't got their debut LP 'passive me, aggressive you' yet get it here. playing at the club house on november 6th. tickets here. check out this live session.
FFO: passion pit, ou est le swimming pool

ECSTATIC SUNSHINE - matt papich. i saw this guy open for wavves at cargo in london on my birthday back in july. such a good night. experimental/minimalist kind of stuff but its got such a cool vibe. very unique. you can get a digital copy of 'yesterdays work' here, or email him at ecstaticsunshine@gmail.com with your deets to get him to send the 12" + download card (something like $25-30 incl shipping).
FFO: blithe field, julian lynch

DARKSTAR - progressive/experimental dubstep from london. debut LP 'north' set for release in november with hyperdub.
FFO: deadboy, joy orbison

massive fan of these guys and their style. little glo-fi. little chillwave. little glitch. little hip/hop

gold panda - uk artist, built his rep on the back of some great remixes(little boots, telepathe, health) before releasing his own japanese/vhs inspired minimal techno hip/hop tunes.

little loud -another uk producer. been following this guy since i heard his remix of memory house's 'bicycle'. so far he's only released remixes and this cover but his blog promises that original tunes are on the way.


star slinger - uk. again. darren williams self-releases his own instrumental hip/hop tunes. sample-laden beat tapes showcasing his eclectic and excellant taste in music along with some crafty remix's are all available on his site, strongly recommend you get them. exhibit A for his music taste: this first track samples life without buildings' 'the leanover'. get 'the leanover' here.
**these are both serious tunes. must download.

been listening to these a lot lately, bit o' lo-fi/surf/skate/gaze

cee-lo green - cee-lo fucking bleeeds r&b. have so much respect for how he's brought funk and soul back into the mainstream. whether it's through his work with gnarles barkley or other collaborators or in his solo work he makes a great genre relevant to a whole generation that it could've been lost to. his new solo album 'the lady killer' is due later this year

dan black - great hip/hop influenced electro-pop. he'll be out here for parklife. these tunes are off his 'weird science' mixtape. debut album 'UN' is out now.
