20 Best Tracks June 2014

Taken from the single 'And The Question Remains' by Big Hard Excellent Fish. Out now

In 1989 dancer Michael Clark approached Josie Jones and Jake Walters of Big Hard Excellent Fish to write a piece of music for his forthcoming work with the Phoenix Dance Company. Josie Jones, formerly of Pete Wylie’s Mighty Wah! asked Pete to work with them on this and the ‘Imperfect List’ was born: a sober, chilling – and very heartfelt cry and denouncement of Britain’s then-ill’s.

Michael’s choreography with the Phoenix Dance Company was performed at Sadler’s Wells and the track also featured in the South Bank Show’s documentary about him.

The track was subsequently re-recorded with Robin Guthrie of the Cocteau Twins and released as a 12” in 1990 with a remix by Andy Weatherall. In 2004 the track found a new audience when Morrissey began using it to open his shows – which he continues to do to this day.

After many requests in subsequent years to ‘update’, it was not until 2011 when approached by One Little Indian that Big Hard Excellent Fish decided that the time was right – the political climate not that different from that of the 1980’s. Infact not that much has changed at all: Religion, Greed, Murdoch, WMDs, Hate Crimes, the Banking Crisis, Child Poverty, crooked Judges, Jeremy ‘Wanker’ Clarkson… And The Question Remains: Where Were You..?

‘And The Question Remains’, written by Josie and Ian C is accompanied by two very different alternate versions – the Silver Bullet version with music by Erik Legrang & Nina Walsh and the Rootmasters version with music by Ian C & James Clancy.

Kid Astray - Taking You With Me

<3 On Hype Machine: http://hypem.com/track/251jj/Stereoshock+-+The+Messenger

As fog begins to pass through a war-torn town, we come across a man who struggles to find the perspective that he once held during his youth. After the loss of a loved one occurs in the story, we gain greater insight on the protagonist's desire to discover a boy who has gone missing. We soon learn that the boy is only a figment of the messenger's imagination. A way for him to cope with the loss of his adolescence, and maintain a connection with the experiences of his past. 'The Messenger' has many perspectives, and I hope you will make your own conclusions about how this story unfolds. 

'The Messenger' is Composed, Produced, Written, and Mixed by, Stereoshock.
----------
Verse 1:

[ I've seen a kingdom fall this year...
Because greed smells like blood to some men ]

[Dense fog and roaring wind casted over our village,
while the beckoning sound of cries and cannons cut through the heavy air]

[At dawn, I was awoken from what appeared to be
the last time I'd ever dream] 

[and the iron-encrusted window from my childhood 
would never bear the same view again]

[I was ordered to deliver a letter,
that I knew would foreshadow nothing but unrest for our province] 

[but it was too late…]

[With every step,
the last remaining footprints of my innocence, would soon be left in the cold soil]

[You know what they say though….
Don't Shoot...The Messenger]
-------------------------------
Interlude (House Scene):

*Cries From Sister*
[Mom..mom no please. Stay with us, please mom, don't die, not here]
-------------------------------
Verse 2:

[Every time I tell my story, 
I often skip over this part] 

[Not because I'm embarrassed of what i've become,
but because of what I've lost in the process] 

[I walked across the bridge, and closed the gate
which had sheltered me from everything I now knew]

[and in the moonlit backdrop,
I looked up at my window for the very last time]

[I'd like to think the boy who left the castle that day, 
is still out their running]

[and I hope he never stops...] 

[Because this boy was the kid in all of us
....And now his message is lost]
