- 0919Y00F05prime09Y00C4NBACK WITH ANOTHER OF THOSE COFFEE TABLE ROCKING BEATS:
- 2422Y00F08ganymede24Y00C7NBy Fishboy/Panda
- 0814Y00F05prime08N
- 0806Y00C1NRepublica, Olive, The noise your TV makes when tuned to BBC1 at 4am. Spot the
- 0801Ndifference... Wha? You can't?
- 0801N
- 0811Y00C2Y08C1NSCULLY: Mulder, this is ridiculous.
- 0811Y00C5Y08C1NMULDER: Thats what I thought at first but if you re-tune all three to a
- 0801N frequency of 500hz.
- 0811Y00C2Y07C7NSCULLY: MY GOD!
- 0811Y00C5Y08C1NMULDER: Yes, they all sound like the noise those little toy plastic guitars
- 0801N you can get in motorway service stations make.
- 0801N
- 0806Y00C1NHmm. Scary huh? Bet you didn't know that Robert Miles, the 35 year old
- 0801N"Attractive in severe lighting" Saffron out of Republica and the built out of
- 0801Nspare bits of kinder egg toys lead singer of Olive are all entirely fictional
- 0801Ncharacters. Look closely when they're on TV and you might notice a big
- 0801Nplastic mold line reminiscent of old Star Wars figures running between their
- 0801Neyes and right down their fronts. Infact they all have little holes in their
- 0801Nfeet so you can stick them on the little pegs on the floor of the Millenium
- 0811Y61C3Y71C1NFalcon and run around your house pretending to fly it without Han Solo
- 0801Nfalling over.
- 0801N
- 0801NYes, they are all opperated by remote control and their voices produced using
- 0801None of those cool "Voice Man" things that McAuley Culkin had on Home Alone 2.
- 0801NYou too can make your own hit records using a home computer and a "Voice Man"
- 0801Njust sample the theme tunes to Tommorows World along with any old and
- 0801Nembarrasing records you have lieing around from when you were twelve (Ace of
- 0801NBase and 2 Unlimited tend to work best) and set the "Voice Man" to "Robot"
- 0801Nsetting. Alternatively, use the built in microphone from the old "Snake
- 0801NMountain" He-man toy to produce that "Scary Trip Hop" effect.
- 0801N
- 0801NI never had a "Snake Mountain" or a "Castle Grey Skull" but I did have
- 0806Y37C2NModulock - "The bionic effort" whoose body could be "remolded genetically"
- 0806Y24C1Ninto anything you wanted. Most people just stuck a head or an arm where his
- 0801Nnob should be though. They bought out a second version of Modulock with all
- 0806Y41S2Nrobotic arms and stuff. But it was shit. Incidently all He-man toys came with
- 0801Na little comic and the Modulock one was called: "The Treachery Of Modulock".
- 0801N
- 0806Y00S0NThis is however irrelevant. These stars of "New Electronica" are constantly
- 0801Nbeing slandered as "Commercial", "Manufactured" and "Coffee-Table music for
- 0801Ndumb ass yuppies". This is unfair, the Faithless Cheery Breakfast Cereal,
- 0801NPanini Republica Sticker book 97 and an exclusive range of CJ Bolland tazos
- 0801Nare all "legitimate side projects".
- 0801N
- 0801NThe funniest thing about all these bands though is watching them on top of
- 0801Nthe pops where a thundering 170rpm breakbeat is always played by some idiot
- 0801Nwith his tounge hanging out sitting in front of a huge drum kit but only ever
- 0801Nhitting two drums like the reincarnated spirit of Big Chief Sitting Bull.
- 0801NThey always have some bass player with dreadlocks as well who does the "Oh
- 0801Nno! I've just fallen on my arse and it fucking well hurts" dance and twangs a
- 0806Y70C5Nstring every half hour. And a bloke with a pair of really tall bongos. What
- 0801Nis the deal with those really tall bongos?
