The Darkening Scale – Larval Dissections

Larval Dissections

Here’s another Darkening Scale, this time it’s the remix of Songs For Swinging Larvae. David explains: “As with Aerobic Dallying the idea wasn’t just to create alternative versions of the original songs, rather to see what was possible given the starting material. So, while some tracks are recognisably similar to their originals others are totally unrecognisable. Venice Restored bears no relation to Renaldo’s Trip To Venice but all the material is derived from it apart from the drum loop. There’s also a new twist to a couple of tracks this time; hybrids! So A Sob Story has been crossed with Ow Stew The Red Shoe to form Sobbing In The Red Shoe, and Honest Joe’s Indian etc. has been crossed with Bali Whine to form Joe In Bali. There’s also some serious slicing and treatment of some of the vocal parts on Gnome Song, Medical Man, BPM and Spratts Medium.” Larval Dissections is only available as an mp3 download.

Various – The Music Is Taboo Volume 1

The Music Is Taboo

The Music Is Taboo was the braichild of Charles Klee. Charles approached Renaldo and the Loaf with the idea of getting bands and artists to submit their cover versions and remixes of Renaldo and the Loaf songs. Charles himself set the ball rolling with his version of Bustle the Burgoo from Songs For Swinging Larvae, set up a MySpace page and invited people to send in their renditions. Slowly the tracks began to accumulate and the project closed in September 2008 with 28 tracks and over 100 minutes of fantastic music. The compilation is now available as a download, with cover art by Renaldo M, and has been split into 2 volumes to make it easy to burn to CD.

Tracks:

  1. Henk – Medical Man
  2. Renaldo M – Rosa’s Still Lonely
  3. The Pedantic Pedestrian – Absence
  4. Charles Klee – Bustle the Burgoo
  5. The Oblong Boys – Boule!
  6. Twentyagon – BPM
  7. The Knobster – Haul On the Bowline
