Incidentally, ten points to anyone who can say what techno act sampled the riff from “Knows When” (at the start of interview above).. Well ok, there is more than one…

I Heart VBS.TV

“Steal what you need to steal” – Terry Hall.

VBS.TV is the online video channel offshoot of Vice Magazine. It features a variety of programming which really appeals to my sensory apparatus! Artists and musicians interviews, social and cultural documentaries – they’re all here. The above video is part 2 of an interview with Terry Hall from the Soft Focus UK show. There’s not much else I can say about this channel apart from that it is brilliant. Tune in now!

But one recommended documentary you should watch for starters though is Columbian Devil’s Breath. It’s subject is the story of Scopolamine, possibly the most dangerous drug on the planet and defiantly not for recreational use. Scary stuff indeed.

The Sound of Mu(sic)

So a while back there was a site called www.thesoundof.mu which teased the electronic music community into thinking there was a new KLF (aka Justified Ancients of Mu Mu) release on the horizon. I have to say I was blissfully unaware of this even though I has got an image from somewhere on the interweb, for use in a mammoth project I have been working on, which should have resulted in further investigation on my part. The site had some great images in the KLF style which caused a bit of a storm online and speculation of a reformation of Mu!

Anyway to make a long story short, the whole thing was a big skam by Strictly Kev and Mr. Trick and a good one at that. The Sound of Mu(sic) was the result. It hailed a forthcoming new documentary about the KLF previewed by a half hour mix of Mu sounds and it is now available for your listening pleasure. Find out the full story via the links below.
