Ooh, spooky: "Ghosts before breakfast"
So I decided I wanted to make a video for my hot new sample-based project Yaoi! Attack. But then I thought... why go to all the trouble, when you can just co-opt visuals from a classic piece of 1920s experimental German cinema?
Well exactly.
That being the case, I present to you my take on Hans Richter's Ghosts before Breakfast, a revolutionary abstract film from 1927.
As ever, I built the track up from a few unrelated mp3s taken from my itunes library (although i did cheat a little here by cherry-picking the samples, rather than leaving their choice up to the gods of fate as I technically should). Also, I added good few little sound effects and extra touches of my own. If you're interested though, the basic recipe for this song is: r dean taylor + charles mingus + mogwai + seasick steve + volcano! + the lucksmiths + modest mussorgsky. Yum!
By the way, you can download the track here..

Yaoi! Attack
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
Befriend me on myspace if you're feeling charitable: www.myspace.com/edwardrmillington
