Spaceships Over Deeside - Arbrofion yn rheoli meddwl

"Brainwashing" or "mind control" refers to the unethical use of persuasion methods with the aim of recruiting people into joining or remaining involved with a group, movement, or cause.



Last blog post of the year. I don't like doing top 10 and end of year lists so here's a track from one of the Spaceships albums that should be done in January. Percussive, trippy, noisey, have a listen on headphones and throw a whitey. Have a nice xmas.

This weeks Spaceships on the radio is up for download, and this one brings the FUNK! Made up of stuff that's on my laptop that I'm enjoying at the moment. Funk, soul, pop, s & m themed disco, electro, a new wave nun with a drum machine and Syd Barrett. You've GOT hear the mutant sex dungeon disco of track 04 "You've got the whip . . . . . ooohh baby you like it!" Also that Shirley Ellis cut is surely the best party tune ever?

The Ghouleez - Fat girl eats cat

Who's up for this then?

Seriously rough and ready, lo fi recorded straight into laptop, loads of echo, fuzz and shovels of feedback! Brain melting. Hopefully if you're into The Cramps, The Oh Sees and so on you'll dig this! Here's a short clip of one of my personal favourites: Fat girl eats cat.



Jibbed myspazz off as it's become a huge pain in the bum to upload new stuff, and frankly i don't understand how to use it. You can listen to full tracks here:

Is it . . . .

Man or Astroman?



Imagine Eddie Munster decided to start a garage sci-fi surf band with the robot from the day the earth stood still on drums, wolf man on bass and the creature from the black lagoon on rhythm guitar, then you’ve pretty close to what Man or Astroman? Sound like!

As with most of my favourite bands, I was turned onto these guys by the mighty Peel. I think he had them on for a fair few sessions, and regularly used to play album tracks, 7”s and so on. Their songs are littered with samples from obscure sci fi movies and other top trash such as The Munsters, Space Ghost, The Jetsons, and I was pretty much in love from the get go!

Don’t know where to tell you to begin with them as they’ve got so many split 7”s, e.p’s, comps, albums and so on out just go nuts and buy whatever you can (although you should never listen to me, otherwise you’ll be bankrupt within a year).

Their covers are class too, anyone who’s a fan B-movies will have a whale of a time looking at them online!



Geek fact time: Years ago when we first got SKY, I remember religiously staying up to watch Alternative Nation on MTV (Toby something?). I’d record all of them on VHS and also write down any bands I liked the sound of so I could check them out at a later date. Found so many cool bands through this programme, Guided by voices, Super furry animals, Labradford, Girls vs. Boys . . . . . . when one night, who should be on in session:



I genuinely thought they were from out of space! Oh wait, they actually are.
