Newsfelch

There is a new Messy Angelo EP available from Shindig Records as of right now! CHECK IT OUT!

New never before heard material! Sexy possible artwork! Secret track featuring the sound of two dudes humping! It's worth the price (free). Also there is a possible Shindig music-y blogsite starting, the address being http://www.slice-o-class.blogspot.com ... give it a whirl. You might find some tunes you'd like. It'll feature regular posts of tracks chosen by Shindig artists for you, the public.

Think sexy. Think Shindig.

Strongmen of the World, Unite!

Which was the original title of the track I remixed for Tugboat. Peruse it with this link.

That's just a portion of an ongoing effort on our part to deconstruct and reconstruct some of Shindig's finer moments over the last few years (man, it's been at least three years since we started recording the now-out-of-print Chronic Jump Boy EP... hard to believe).

If this is the treats we're giving the public now, imagine what fine and lavish gifts we'll bestow upon them come the Shindig 25th anniversary.

One last piece of news, a new supergroup is about to enter the Shindig fold, that group being We Build Smiles, a pairing of myself (Messy A) and Declan of studying music in Bath fame. We haven't started recording anything yet, but rest assured this isn't going to be another Bunnyf***er deal where we don't actually record anything despite our vast hype and potential domination of the marketplace.

Leverage manbeast.


I command all of you to download track 13 off Sequel.

It doesn't matter where you go...

....it's a remix of getting there (arf!)

I put my remixing boots on and got bizzay this weekend....so to speak.

JOY WORLD CORPORATION - Richard Linklater (Tugboat Willy Remake)

MESSY ANGELO - Getting There (Tugboat Willy's Wrong Way Round Remix)

That version of Richard Linklater had been in the pipeline for a few months but an encouraging e-mail from Diarmaid helped push it forward...Meanwhile, it's odd how things have worked out after just a few months, so Getting There seemed perfect for a rejiggle...

Keep it foolish, yeah?

Ruff love


Hello my little blogites.
God I hate this course.

Just as Tuggers told, the film we are making is a documentry about my granpa and his recently published book. Bit of diversity in the old Shindig cannon afterall then.
Plus-Hey,,,,, expect more artwork from me now that im actually makin more.
Gnarls Barkley is gonna be dope.
Oh, and American dad was the biggest feast of Cleveland steamer I ever pressed my eyes against.
Hmmmmmm....... Lots of lovely remixes, bootlegs and rarities Coming soon.

Film.

Some quick news about the new film me and Tugboat are making.
I think it might be called "Brighter Days".
I also think we start filming this weekend.

DOWNLOAD THREE


okay-this be the final part of the album download, enjoy "Sequel" in all its sequential glory.


Track 8 "Staircase"

Track 9 "Autopiliot"

Track 10 "Tranny Ball"

Track 11 "Less than hilarious"

Track 12 "Jittabug"

Track 13 "Any Man"

Official Album Credits: All sounds created by tugboat willy and dano, except:
Fionn robinson- guitar on tracks 2,6 and 7.
Robert Turlough Whorisky- guitar and effects on track 8.
Laura- voice on track 12.

Samples:Track one features sound recordings from various television programmes I recorded one sunday. Track two features a vocal sample from a kids record about the weather and a John coletrane record at the end which I cant remember the name of right now.
The accoustic guitar loop from track 6 was lifted from a Godzilla vs. Hedorah video I found in my room.The drums at the end were cut up like shit from tracks from a Trojan sampler.
The "evil" vocal bit from 40 bangs was sampled from a video game which im not going to tell you what it is. ha. Some Shindig Merch to the first person who can tell me what game.
Jittabug samples our apperance on television.
Every other sound on the album was created by Tugboat and Dano's bare hands (which held instruments).

Dano did the artwork along with input from tugboat.
Thanks to those whose deserve it.

Hey Tuggers, feel free to edit this shit if i left anything out.

And so ends another chapter of the Super Eight Kids.

Mingus Dew

I'm contributing! Anyway, I've been invited to be a contributor as I am one of Shindig's many hot properties, and as such I'll add something useful to the site whenever I can ... but if I can't I'll just spout off random oul shite, like now. Actually, I'll link up a Shindig mp3 to justify the post.

Anyway, it's called White Rum (Dead Air Ressurection Mix) and it's a brief little remix of a song that, due to circumstances beyond my control, no longer exists but was going to feature on the new Messy Angelo album. It's a collaboration between the studio-hyperactive Dano and myself, bask in the heat generated by it's beats by downloading it.

Looking forward to selling out the Shindig philosophy and products like an unmitigated whore. Catch all y'all later.

Gin rummy.

I did come over to the library here to upload the rest of the album but, fuddugers couldnt be arsed right now. So I thought in the spirit of these hip new blog nanosites- i'd entertain you all with whats entertaining me.

First up Tuggers has this idea to do a shindig chart thingy whereby we tell youse-uns all of the stuff thats currently filling the void in our quite fullfilling young lives (kinda like what im writing now or what those shite fashion magazines do where they say whats hot or not, except not quite as rubbish as that). so he says we'll probably do that every monday. Sounds queer as hell, but i'll go along with it anyway.

Anyways I picked up the new Arab strap album today, "the last romance", which im currently listening to, and it's utterly fantastic. I know its early to call from first listen, but its right up there with philophobia.
Also the new set from Boards of Canada's out today, along with dangerdoom.
But im sure all you little young'uns have got them all downloaded yonks ago from some file sharing business. you wouldnt steal a car now, would you.

Messy's got his own blog up.much more entertaining than this shite.
http://generallymessy.blogspot.com

Plus, in case you people forgot, Daithi and Jerry Dammers ( of The Specials fame ) are throwing a little bash in the fubar this thursday. So unless Mr. Dammers has branched into hardcore- emo- trad, expect much skanking. Seriously though, if youre in Letterkenny this week it promises to be fantastic. I think its a fiver in.

Well, were all off to Topshop now. We got free tickets to some queer "lock-in" thing that will probably be filled with utter cunt ben shermanites, but hey,-free booze (which now that i think of it will probably be like a wee teespoon of piss weak budweezer).
goodnight poeple of earth.
