Hello, ladies and also gentlemen. This is a small announcement concerning my new musical project, Yaoi! Attack, which is shortly going to take the world by storm. Tinny over-compressed electronic tape-noise-psych-soul-boogie for the win! You heard it here first!
The basic technique is: stick itunes on shuffle; make a note of the first 10 songs that get played; sample them; make something new. As such, a small note about the genetic make-up of each song is in order:
Mile zero bison = robert wyatt w/ orchestre national de jazz + squarepusher + steeleye span + hella + marnie stern + the lucksmiths
Yes, I am = mogwai + the byrds + steve reich + volcano! + magic sam + aidan smith + j dilla + louise attaque
Beautiful underwater frond pond = alan r splet + ital tek + frank zappa + herbie hancock + trevor wishart + matthew herbert
Scaling the face of... = robert knight + the coral + esbjorn svensson trio + nosaj thing + doves + tom waits + john coltrane
