FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH!



WELCOME TO THE BLOGO-DROME... WITH ACT YO AGE

Extending to you our warmest welcomes from tomorrow...

This is our first foray into all things literary, and it may possibly be our last.

We have been busy as hell the last 6 months with overseas touring, crazy new studio work and a gruelling schedule of wild ass - back to back - head to head - wall to wall partying..

Or working.. Depending on how you look at it..

Our sounds are available all across the galaxy and if you don't know that by know you never will, and probably don't care, so rather than bore you with a musical offerimg we have decided to share some of our favourite things.

*If the response is favourable - then we may just make a regular spot outta this... Or maybe not.

There will be a different theme for each episode, this months is:


THINGS BEGINNING WITH 'A'

ARMADILLO


Just check this little guy out! Chilling in the sun, getting his bronze on.. This is one cool creature, have you ever eeen one of the guys drink beer through his snout? Think thats crazy, wait till he gets out the bucket bong! Whhaaaooo..


ANDROMEDA STRAIN
The Andromeda Strain
Now this is one for all you movie buff / habitual stoners out there.. A true testament to the strength, resilience and commonalities between the young and the old. We must point out now that we are discussing the 1971 cinema classic here so go check it out... NOW FOOLS!

ASSHOLES


Today we take time out to honour these wonderful things.. These guys are the ones who help us see past the thorns and straight to the rose. Without them life would be truly mundane. Here we see a a lesser know species making itself useful.. and delicious.

ALBERT EINSTEIN


No explanation needed here really.. Suffice to say, that if they pickled this guys brain and put it up for sale on Ebay, I would buy it and serve it up on some crackers..

ACERSECOMIC


In the traditional sense "Acersecomic' is a noun that means "One whose hair has never been cut". We are using it here to decry our undying love and devotion to all things hairy, including girl bush. Mmmnnnnnn...

AD-LIB (ING)


This is something we all like to do from time to time.. To speak freely, to improvise.. especially in Music.. Its the spirit of the sixties in two syllables! Speaking of the Sixties, my Mom once told me something along the lines of
"If you ain't got anything nice to say then shut the hell up"


ON that sweet note.. Thats us signing off.. XX AYA XX

A Halloween Remix



A gift to all the kids who put on their costumes and tricked or treated for candy all night long to all the girls who with their costumes make Halloween all the more sweeter as an adult, this track is for you. Enjoy.

Its Redial who manages to add a dark disco edge with great success to one of this year's best and most often reworked tracks.
