    This week we can’t get over how good the track below actually is.
     

    I don’t know if you’d call it funk, but its fucking funky.

    And I’m not sure if its alternative, but it’s alternative to most other things we listen to nowadays.

    It’s not electronic, but it sounds like it might be modulating everywhere.

    And the two alternating tone notes (drones?) are either white noise or modern composition.

    Like Fela Kuti met Can “Hallelujwah” to play a Terry Riley composition and Boards of Canada remixed it…

    And sort of made whole by this Paul Simenon (The Clash) quote:

    “We knew by the time the mid 70’s arrived that we were fucked. Doomed. England was a wasteland in those days. We were destined for the scrap heap unless we could figure out an escape from the mundanity.

    I got a job in a factory when I was fifteen, but all I cared about was playing guitar. There was a lot of noise in the factory – white noise and wall to wall sheet metal din. A constant hammering; an ambience of industrial noise all the time”

    Let’s just call it 12 minutes of awesomeness.
