slinky, sexy and erotic
there’s been a few changes around here. the faux pas blog – now well into its fourth year – continues to mutate, wavering in format intermittently, warbling incessantly like so many robin gibb vocal takes.
anyway, now you can listen to 30 songs while you read the blog. thirty. they are all up there at the top. see the big orange button? thats the one. its a couple of hours worth of faux pas, including lots of remixes and rarities. that, combined with the random post feature, could keep you busy if you are partial to my stupid sense of humour.
i haven’t figured out how to make it keep playing the song while you visit different pages, but i’m on it. suggestions welcome.
in the spirit of these changes… here are a few songs called “changes”. i like them all.
the association

my unbounding love for the association is so without limitations that it borders on some kind of, i dunno, copyright infringement.
the imagination

really digging imagination at the moment. only found out about them recently when wally gotye blogged about them at the start of the year. then, more recently, i got my hands on their night dubbing record and have been fairly hooked. completely absurd dubbed out funk-pop. sexy as hell. wikipedia nails the mood when describing how the bands key members hooked up:
John and Ingram formed a songwriting partnership, resolving to start their own ‘slinky, sexy and erotic’ group, working in a short-lived band called Fizzz.
‘slinky sexy and erotic.’ yes! did i mention the singer’s name is leee john? with three e’s?
ok. to take us back to me, which is what this blog is really about, here’s my summer smash hit “changes” – and, as a bonus, the weird intro bit that didn’t make it on to the changes ep.

as a bonus beat, because i can’t help myself, here’s imagination getting completely ridiculous in their 1983 clip for “new dimension.”
tim you should have posted changes by the shape of broad minds as well. that one is real good
