John Foxx And The Maths - The Good Shadow (OMD Remix)

Beverly Glenn-Copeland is already known amongst collectors and music heads for two sought-after albums of folky jazz in the key of Joni. But it was this album, originally self-released on cassette in 1986 that really caught our attention. The album, entirely recorded on DX-7 and TR-707, lies somewhere between digital new-age and (accidentally) early Detroit techno experiments. The inimitable style of BGC here is both peaceful and meditative while simultaneously rhythmic and bass heavy. The album was recorded in the northern Canadian town of Huntsville where BGC was living at the time and is a beautiful fusion of personal vision, technology and place.

Grinderman - Heathen Child (Andrew Weatherall Bass Mix)

If I ran ahead, would you know which way that I went without you?
In days, I would be lost and afloat 
Thrown into the waves, tossed ashore
Throw me now your arms 

We’re not meant to be on our own 
Is this now the time we let go 
And cling to one another, giving life?
Throw me now your arms 

Let me be the first to tell you I would give up my life
Every day as the tides grow closer, it is all that’s on my mind

Throw me now your arms and pull me in
Let me be the one at day’s end
Who you can depend on, hand in hand
Safely on the shore where we stand
Throw me now your arms 

Let me be the first to tell you I would give up my life
Every day, as the tides grow closer, it is all that’s on my mind

A synth-infused father-son collaboration, fast-rising talent Kincaid has teamed up with his dad Neil Arthur, a member of the respected British synth-pop act Blancmange, for a fresh release on Moscoman's Disco Halal imprint, titled 'Big Fat Head'.

The forthcoming release sees Moscoman teaming up with friend and collaborator Trikk as Nucat for their first official remix under the new joint moniker. Wrapped in the label's favored air of eastern mysticism, this chugging and vocoder-driven track is not to be missed.

'Big Fat Head' is set for release on March 22 via Disco Halal.

/// LYRICS

Once a songbird caught me by surprise
With the strength of its singing
A bright call took flight, pierced the air
Like a lone bell a-ringing

What’s past is past
Wanted, never asked

I don’t expect to get a second chance
To choose my words as I mean to
But I’d take it all back, I was wrong
Now I know what you’ve been through

What’s past is past
Wanted, never asked

A songbird’s shadow upon the lawn
Lies in wait since you’re gone

Sun sure falls fast
No shadow cast
What’s past is past
Wanted, never asked

Up On High

/// LYRICS

Baby, the world’s in an awful place
The system’s all a sham
But as long as I have you in my life
Life is grand
Maybe the whole thing’s been rigged to fail
Maybe we never stood a chance
But as long as I have you by my side
There’s romance

Take my hand 
And let’s dance real slow
I’ll put on
Some old Teddy Wilson
For tonight
Could we just let everything go
Even if it’s just a
Brief escape from this prison 

We’re late on the rent
And there’re bills to pay
No money in the bank
But as long as I
Have you on my side
I’ll relax

Take my hand
And let’s dance real slow
I’ll put on
Some old Teddy Wilson
For tonight
Could we just let everything go
Even if it’s just a
Brief escape from this prison

Take my hand
And let’s dance real slow
I’ll put on
Some old Teddy Wilson
For tonight
Could we let it all erode
Even if it’s just a
Big ol’ waste, baby, listen

Teddy Wilson

Landlord, got a crazy landlord
I'm sleeping in the van, Lord
I'm working for the man
But I don't mind

Pay rent yeah we gotta pay rent
Honey, time to pay rent

But I dont mind
Yeah, I know it's time

We're leaving in the morn and we're covering ground
I like the sound on the road when my wheels start spinnin around

We're leaving in the morn and we'll be heading right out
My baby and I are gonna high tail it down south
