Banger.

Also a banger.

There is something indestructible about this wretched format, isn't there?

@Corpsey truly created something elemental here, like rain or mucus.

I don't have control of this thread though so I can't imperiously demand that everybody captions their selection and explains it. Because who wants to click on some random YouTube link without a verbal incentive?

For example I will never ever click on this

sure, why not

delectable, swingin, slab of a track from the 1991 interstice between bleep techno and breakbeat hardcore. kind of a weird track. the mixdown very much centers the synths - a resonant plucky bassline, a midi choir ostinato, ersatz xylophones and synth-funk arps. but the ragga vocal samples, pseudo-dub string stab ringing out, and 'real drum sample' thing + swing of the drum track foreshadow jungle-qua-jungle. ear candy

I clicked on it, it was 1980 post-punk record I’d have never discovered otherwise. I don’t need rhetorical swaying, just the faith that everyone’s heart is in the right place

The ekphrastic descriptions give away too much. I like being given time stamps they’re like a table of contents

 

[luka]

version's heart is catagorically not in the right place. he's evil.

 

[luka]

his heart is in hell!

 

[dilbert1]

Nobody here is evil, just broken spiritually

 

[luka]

it's here if you look closely you can spot it. black and oozing corruptions.

 

[dilbert1]

At least they fly my flag down there

It's Bruce Gilbert and Graham Lewis from Wire.
