Tuck your knob between your legs



I'd previously promised some older-school dusty warehouse classics, however what I have to hand right now is this scattershot assortment of interesting stuff that either had a play out at the last Oslo Report, or will get an airing on May 2nd down at Grant and Green.

This oddity is a recent re-working of Goodbye Horses by Q Lazzarus. To my mind it's not as compelling as the original, lacking as it does the whole, "goodbye horses" chorus bit. But on the plus side it's much more dance friendly. Most people feel they've heard it before, but can't place it. It is of course the track appendage tucking, lotion fancier Buffalo Bill prances about to in Silence of The Lambs.

Goodbye Horses Krikor Edit

If memory serves Bill was an aspirant transsexual which serves as a lazer-targeted segue into a track conveniently called Transsexual, by the French-shaped, Ed Banger Mr Oizo. This is the Lorn Remix and it grumbles along rather finely, although I can't quite work out all the variations of 'sexual' the female vocalist is listing. I need to get out more.

Finally Evidently Chicken Town by Manchester poet John Cooper Clarke. It was played over the end credits of the Sopranos the other night and it did an astonishing job of reinforcing the (inevitable) concrete-shoesyboots, teeth-stamping and knee-cap brutalizing on the horizon, as the series finally curls it's toes up. Check it out, very interesting and experimental…
