Holy Fuck	Ninety Five "Ninety Five" by "Holy Fuck"	Ninety Five (Digital Single)	Bandcamp	2022	Holy Fuck are Brian Borcherdt, Graham Walsh, Matt McQuaid, and Matt Schulz. "Ninety Five is the sound of drums literally collapsing under their own weight. Matt Schulz sent the band a bunch of drum ideas, recorded in his practice space in Brooklyn. This was at the top of the 'pandemic' and already an experiment in isolation. By allowing his stage mixer to feedback, Brian, in his home studio in rural Nova Scotia, created a drone for those drums to kick their way through. Those drum signals were then split out, triggering various compressors and noise-gates. Hence the drums fight themselves as they simultaneously fight their way through the drone and the song itself. Everything is held together in mid-collapse. The groove was further fleshed out by sampling the track, adding a guitar (that emulated yet another sample). Graham, in his home studio in Toronto, added scary tension balanced with colourful flourishes, and cut-up vocals using a home made audio-switching device. Matt added fresh drums. MORE DRUMS!!! Ninety Five is the number on a gondola suspended in space. It's the new number by a band floating in their spaces. spacing, spaced out." Released April 14, 2022. Holy Fuck Bandcamp	*	0:09:17 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Colpitts	Recovery "Recovery" by "Colpitts"	Music From The Accident	Thrill Jockey	2022	Music from John Colpitts / aka Kid Millions, (Man Forever Oneida) Released Mar 2022: " As its name implies, Music from the Accident captures an unexpected, life-altering change in the composer’s life. In February 2018, Colpitts was involved in a car crash which severely injured his back and left him unable to work or perform for months. Working on new music became an important means of pushing forward through his recovery, which Colpitts deliberately approached as an opportunity to explore new creative avenues. Colpitts’ expressive grasp of rhythm and space still form the foundation of the album. Drums and percussion are entirely absent for the first half of the record, the composer instead transposing his rhythmic ingenuity to other instruments. With close friend and collaborator Greg Fox acting as producer, the pair worked on the initial piece transmuting the complex emotions of the experience into short sonic leitmotifs, sculpting small gestures on modular synthesiser and percussion into longer movements that Colpitts mutated and condensed into musical themes. The album’s subtle minimalism provides a perfect analogue for Colpitts’ journey to recovery: each repetition or delicate shift in tone and texture is almost imperceptible and yet an important step towards the album’s conclusion."

Fun Boy Three	The Telephone Always Rings	Fun Boy Three	Chrysalis	1982	In the summer of 1981, the Specials released “Ghost Town.” It became the band’s biggest hit spending three weeks at number one in the UK Charts. The song reflected the sense of despair that had spread across the country as riots erupted in London, Liverpool, Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds. The country was burning. At the moment of their greatest success, the Specials split. Staple teamed-up with his fellow bandmates Lynval Golding and Terry Hall. and formed a new band—the Fun Boy Three. The playwright Joe Orton once said that comedy is a double-edged sword with which to make a moral point. The audience laugh at the joke and later understand what the joke meant. It was the same with the Fun Boy Three’s music—fast, exciting pop undercut by powerful social commentary. After two years, the Fun Boy Three split up. Hall moved onto a completely different genre of music with his indie guitar band The Colourfield. Staple teamed up with Ranking Roger of the Beat to form Special Beat. Golding went to work with Robert Wyatt, the Pogues and others before forming Gigantor and then reuniting with Staple and Hall in the Specials.		0:23:23 (Pop-up)
Gemma Rogers	My Idea Of Fun "My Idea Of Fun" by "Gemma Rogers"	My Idea Of Fun - Single	tiny global productions	2022	Gemma Rogers is a London fashion plate, a witty raconteur, a strange and compelling presence in England’s visionary avant–garde, and the owner of two dachshunds. With lyrics penned while nursing a broken heart, Rogers who has already made a name for herself as a spoken word artist leans into her lyrical prowess to craft a track that’s anthemic yet comical, giving us a reprieve from the seriousness of life.Described as a track which she hopes gives people the chance “to have a little dance and a lot of laughs,” indie-pop punk artist offers an easy-going production that captures the honesty and messiness of the human condition.	*	0:26:50 (Pop-up)
Harpans Kraft	Canal Side Running "Canal Side Running" by "Harpans Kraft"	Canal Side Running - Single	Harpans Kraft	2022	Harpans kraft, meaning "The Power of the Harp"...in Danish. Harpans Kraft is also a band from Manchester. Mixing elements of post punk and indie rock, you can hear influences of Pixies in the snaky guitar lines and Parquet Courts in the off-kilter rambling vocals. The group’s artistically driven aesthetic is matched with a sound that is the perfect cocktail of old & new – inspired by the likes of everything from Fat White Family to Gang of Four & The The. Harpans Kraft combine a flair for weaving together jangly textures with a subtly menacing funkiness and introverted ideas of the world around them, channelling their adolescent disconnection into gritty northern characters befitting a kitchen sink drama.	*	0:30:57 (Pop-up)
The Clash	Junco Partner "Junco Partner" by "The Clash"	Sandanista!	CBS	1980	Sandinista! is the fourth studio album by the English band the Clash. It was released on 12 December 1980 as a triple album containing 36 tracks, with 6 songs on each side. Anticipating the "world music" trend of the 1980s, it features funk, reggae, jazz, gospel, rockabilly, folk, dub, rhythm and blues, calypso, disco, and rap. For the first time, the band's traditional songwriting credits of Strummer and Jones were replaced by a generic credit to the Clash, and the band agreed to a decrease in album royalties in order to release the 3-LP at a low price. Singer James Waynes made the first recording of "Junco Partner" in 1951, for Bob Shad's record label "Sittin' in with...".The song is credited to Shad and "Robert Ellen" (a pseudonym Shad used on some recordings),though it was directly inspired by the Willie Hall song "Junker's Blues". According to musician Mac Rebennack ("Dr. John"), James Waynes' recording made the song popular, although it was already widely known among musicians in New Orleans and elsewhere as "the anthem of the dopers, the whores, the pimps, the cons. It was a song they sang in Angola, the state prison farm, and the rhythm was even known as the 'jailbird beat'.		0:34:05 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: James Booker	Junco Partner (Live 10/30/76)	Gonzo: Live 1976	Rockbeat Records	2014	James Carroll Booker III was a rhythm and blues keyboardist born in New Orleans, Louisiana. Booker's unique style combined rhythm and blues with jazz standards. Musician Dr. John described Booker as "the best black, gay, one-eyed junkie piano genius New Orleans has ever produced." Do yourselves a favour and read up on this most fascinating and nearly forgotten musical genius and trailblazer. This version is THE best version of Junco Partner ever recorded.		0:38:54 (Pop-up)
Oneida	Beat Me To The Punch "Beat Me To The Punch" by "Oneida"	Success	Joyful Noise Recordings	2022	This song, from the forthcoming "Success" album, was made available in June. The whole album is out tomorrow, Aug 19. Oneida Bandcamp	*	0:50:14 (Pop-up)

Music behind DJ: Colpitts	Bread "Bread" by "Colpitts"	Music From The Accident	Thrill Jockey	2022	Music from John Colpitts / aka Kid Millions, (Man Forever Oneida) Released Mar 2022: "Music from the Accident illuminates Colpitts’ tenacious spirit and sheer ingenuity as a composer. Far from becoming depressed by a random act that could have ended his ability to play, Colpitts transformed the obstacle into an opportunity for creative and emotional growth. The creative process is truly inseparable from the final piece, the transformation and ultimate transcendence of an artist crystalized into a prism of immeasurable radiance.

Grotto Terrazza	Der Zaubergeselle	Der Zaubergeselle/Inspektor Gingo Single	Maple Death Records	2022	Translated from the German to "The Magician". Grotto Terrazza is the project of Thomas Schamann, a music maker and independent publisher from Munich who also plays in Berlin darkwave band Bleib Modern. He combines German beat poetry with icy post-punk and shadowy industrial, constructed from the found-sound building blocks of musique concrete and borrowing as much from folk noir murder ballads as it does EBM.		1:32:52 (Pop-up)
Working Mens Club	Cut "Cut" by "Working Mens Club"	Fear Fear	Heavenly Recordings	2022	Working Mens Club are back! Sophomore albums can be difficult...but this album has confidence in which it just really does what it wants, you can hear the nods to Kraftwerk; 80’s electro; New Order; Depeche Mode; Propaganda etc throughout the songs, with happy, uplifting music underpinning occasionally really dark lyrics, which sit somewhere between club classics and incidental TV music. Of the song "Cut" Breaking down its creation, Minksy-Sargeant says: “I had the synth and drum machine backing track done for about a year. It used to have this really long sample on the front of it from a 1979 New York gang documentary – 80 Blocks from Tiffany’s. Then it was an instrumental, Kraftwerk/Kraut-y thing. Then the lyrics just came to me in the shower; this monologue came out of my head after thinking about lots of things in society and then I wrote that guitar part at the same time.”	*	1:37:13 (Pop-up)
Big Fun	Rubberband "Rubberband" by "Big Fun"	Oogley Boogley	Guttertech Records	2021	Not to be confused with the 80's British Boy Band..this is a different Big Fun. They are from LA. They dress weird and colorfully. They appear to have no fucks to give. Their noisy, hard hitting, electronic rock style riffs on the idea that things which are scary can also be funny and things that are funny can also be scary. They describe themselves as "Dance-Punk, Surf-Punk, Synth-Rock and so on, but we like to describe it as ‘Gutter-Tech”. The sound of Gutter tech is made up of electronic instruments thrown into an abrasive rock environment." The video for this song is quite fun indeed.		1:44:10 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Wet Satin	Golden Prawn "Golden Prawn" by "Wet Satin"	Golden Prawn Single	Fuzz Club	2022	I could listen to this on repeat forever. It's the vibes. Wet Satin is Californian electronic/experimental duo Jason Miller and Marc Melzer. Taking a step away from the brain-frying space-rock/psych wig-outs harnessed in their 15 years playing together in Lumerians, Wet Satin deals in what the duo call "Kosmische Tropicale" – an expression of reverence and enthusiasm growing from a long-time shared obsession with lost Cosmic Disco, Cumbia, Afrofunk and Library Music records. “We started writing this album during a pretty bleak and heavy time, which I guess sort of sounds like ‘we started writing this album on a Wednesday’ now, but that's sort of the point too. There's an endless buffet of suffering you have a lifetime pass to gorge yourself on whenever you want it, but there's also a lesser-known dance club attached where you can work off some of those doom calories. Music has the ability to alter your environment and take you somewhere else. We genuinely had a lot of fun writing and recording this. The process fell somewhere in between over-indulgence and necessary catharsis, but it achieved a kind of balance in the end. It's a travel brochure for a very specifically peculiar psychological terrain. We think you'll have fun there. Try the hot springs.”	*	1:48:13 (Pop-up)
Robocobra Quartet	Wellness "Wellness" by "Robocobra Quartet"	Living Isn't Easy	First Taste Records	2022	Make no mistake, Belfast’s Robocobra Quartet are angry (and also a bit sad). As a channel for drummer and bandleader Chris W Ryan’s personal and political rage, their brand of jazz ranges from snarky funk to post-punk polemic. Of "Wellness"...Ryan’s plagiarism of an influencer’s morning routine, lifted verbatim from a newspaper article, provides some excellent lyrical material. As the protagonist’s claims about nootropics and salt lamps get more and more ridiculous (“After I've had my coffee, I fill out a spreadsheet on my computer with how well I've slept and my urine PH.”), a cute slice of funk devolves into screeching saxophone and growling guitars – a juxtaposition that highlights the dystopian vibe of our late capitalist obsession with health.		1:55:44 (Pop-up)
Flossing	Men On The Menu "Men On The Menu" by "Flossing"	Men On The Menu - Single	Brace Yourself Records	2022	Heather Elle (ex-BODEGA/The Wants) moves from rhythm section mainstay to haunting front-woman and pop poet as Flossing. ‘Men On The Menu’ sees a mind-melting Flossing debut for Brooklyn noise saxophonist Kate Mohanty, who tears at the seams of the relentless industrial thrust and subterranean bass causing Flossing’s sound to coast beautifully into noise/ psychedelic territory. Guitar parts by Elijah Sokolow (The Living Strange) – who joins the live project on guitar – rattle around the mix alongside wobbling synths, both elements shift the song into a higher gear as the listener is forced forward into a pool of sweat-inducing industrial noise. Alongside the single, Elle comes out as queer, and elaborates: “I’m finally detangling myself from the compulsive hetero regime that’s fooled me, failed me, and f*cked me.”		1:58:47 (Pop-up)
Sounds Of The Ocean	Beach Sounds "Beach Sounds" by "Sounds Of The Ocean"	Ocean Sounds	Sounds Of The Ocean	2016			2:01:49 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Mhaol	Bored of Men "Bored of Men" by "Mhaol"	Bored Of Men - Single	TULLE	2022	Dublin/London/Bristol band and favourite of Babs here on the beach. Fiercely political and feminist, they tackle issues of gender and equality with savage teeth. Speaking of the track, vocalist Róisín Nic Ghearailt states: "I wrote the lyrics of this song in a matter of minutes while we were recording together. The ideas had obviously been fermenting in my head for a while, and it was written during that extremely disconcerting & alarmingly public court case. The title of the song is very tongue in cheek for me, but it does reference a real sense of frustration and exhaustion with the patriarchy. When I say the patriarchy I don’t mean individuals (although they can obviously perpetuate it), I mean institutional and structural oppression."		2:07:09 (Pop-up)

	♥ 10:04pm DJ Babs: I think it's beef...some kind of meat.

	🏝 ♥ 10:06pm ultradamno: In Greece, anyway but apparently "Typical American mass-produced gyros are made with finely ground beef mixed with lamb" Dern production line gyros

Holy Fuck	Ninety Five "Ninety Five" by "Holy Fuck"	Ninety Five (Digital Single)	Bandcamp	2022	Holy Fuck are Brian Borcherdt, Graham Walsh, Matt McQuaid, and Matt Schulz. "Ninety Five is the sound of drums literally collapsing under their own weight. Matt Schulz sent the band a bunch of drum ideas, recorded in his practice space in Brooklyn. This was at the top of the 'pandemic' and already an experiment in isolation. By allowing his stage mixer to feedback, Brian, in his home studio in rural Nova Scotia, created a drone for those drums to kick their way through. Those drum signals were then split out, triggering various compressors and noise-gates. Hence the drums fight themselves as they simultaneously fight their way through the drone and the song itself. Everything is held together in mid-collapse. The groove was further fleshed out by sampling the track, adding a guitar (that emulated yet another sample). Graham, in his home studio in Toronto, added scary tension balanced with colourful flourishes, and cut-up vocals using a home made audio-switching device. Matt added fresh drums. MORE DRUMS!!! Ninety Five is the number on a gondola suspended in space. It's the new number by a band floating in their spaces. spacing, spaced out." Released April 14, 2022. Holy Fuck Bandcamp	*	0:09:17 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Colpitts	Recovery "Recovery" by "Colpitts"	Music From The Accident	Thrill Jockey	2022	Music from John Colpitts / aka Kid Millions, (Man Forever Oneida) Released Mar 2022: " As its name implies, Music from the Accident captures an unexpected, life-altering change in the composer’s life. In February 2018, Colpitts was involved in a car crash which severely injured his back and left him unable to work or perform for months. Working on new music became an important means of pushing forward through his recovery, which Colpitts deliberately approached as an opportunity to explore new creative avenues. Colpitts’ expressive grasp of rhythm and space still form the foundation of the album. Drums and percussion are entirely absent for the first half of the record, the composer instead transposing his rhythmic ingenuity to other instruments. With close friend and collaborator Greg Fox acting as producer, the pair worked on the initial piece transmuting the complex emotions of the experience into short sonic leitmotifs, sculpting small gestures on modular synthesiser and percussion into longer movements that Colpitts mutated and condensed into musical themes. The album’s subtle minimalism provides a perfect analogue for Colpitts’ journey to recovery: each repetition or delicate shift in tone and texture is almost imperceptible and yet an important step towards the album’s conclusion."

Fun Boy Three	The Telephone Always Rings	Fun Boy Three	Chrysalis	1982	In the summer of 1981, the Specials released “Ghost Town.” It became the band’s biggest hit spending three weeks at number one in the UK Charts. The song reflected the sense of despair that had spread across the country as riots erupted in London, Liverpool, Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds. The country was burning. At the moment of their greatest success, the Specials split. Staple teamed-up with his fellow bandmates Lynval Golding and Terry Hall. and formed a new band—the Fun Boy Three. The playwright Joe Orton once said that comedy is a double-edged sword with which to make a moral point. The audience laugh at the joke and later understand what the joke meant. It was the same with the Fun Boy Three’s music—fast, exciting pop undercut by powerful social commentary. After two years, the Fun Boy Three split up. Hall moved onto a completely different genre of music with his indie guitar band The Colourfield. Staple teamed up with Ranking Roger of the Beat to form Special Beat. Golding went to work with Robert Wyatt, the Pogues and others before forming Gigantor and then reuniting with Staple and Hall in the Specials.		0:23:23 (Pop-up)
Gemma Rogers	My Idea Of Fun "My Idea Of Fun" by "Gemma Rogers"	My Idea Of Fun - Single	tiny global productions	2022	Gemma Rogers is a London fashion plate, a witty raconteur, a strange and compelling presence in England’s visionary avant–garde, and the owner of two dachshunds. With lyrics penned while nursing a broken heart, Rogers who has already made a name for herself as a spoken word artist leans into her lyrical prowess to craft a track that’s anthemic yet comical, giving us a reprieve from the seriousness of life.Described as a track which she hopes gives people the chance “to have a little dance and a lot of laughs,” indie-pop punk artist offers an easy-going production that captures the honesty and messiness of the human condition.	*	0:26:50 (Pop-up)
Harpans Kraft	Canal Side Running "Canal Side Running" by "Harpans Kraft"	Canal Side Running - Single	Harpans Kraft	2022	Harpans kraft, meaning "The Power of the Harp"...in Danish. Harpans Kraft is also a band from Manchester. Mixing elements of post punk and indie rock, you can hear influences of Pixies in the snaky guitar lines and Parquet Courts in the off-kilter rambling vocals. The group’s artistically driven aesthetic is matched with a sound that is the perfect cocktail of old & new – inspired by the likes of everything from Fat White Family to Gang of Four & The The. Harpans Kraft combine a flair for weaving together jangly textures with a subtly menacing funkiness and introverted ideas of the world around them, channelling their adolescent disconnection into gritty northern characters befitting a kitchen sink drama.	*	0:30:57 (Pop-up)
The Clash	Junco Partner "Junco Partner" by "The Clash"	Sandanista!	CBS	1980	Sandinista! is the fourth studio album by the English band the Clash. It was released on 12 December 1980 as a triple album containing 36 tracks, with 6 songs on each side. Anticipating the "world music" trend of the 1980s, it features funk, reggae, jazz, gospel, rockabilly, folk, dub, rhythm and blues, calypso, disco, and rap. For the first time, the band's traditional songwriting credits of Strummer and Jones were replaced by a generic credit to the Clash, and the band agreed to a decrease in album royalties in order to release the 3-LP at a low price. Singer James Waynes made the first recording of "Junco Partner" in 1951, for Bob Shad's record label "Sittin' in with...".The song is credited to Shad and "Robert Ellen" (a pseudonym Shad used on some recordings),though it was directly inspired by the Willie Hall song "Junker's Blues". According to musician Mac Rebennack ("Dr. John"), James Waynes' recording made the song popular, although it was already widely known among musicians in New Orleans and elsewhere as "the anthem of the dopers, the whores, the pimps, the cons. It was a song they sang in Angola, the state prison farm, and the rhythm was even known as the 'jailbird beat'.		0:34:05 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: James Booker	Junco Partner (Live 10/30/76)	Gonzo: Live 1976	Rockbeat Records	2014	James Carroll Booker III was a rhythm and blues keyboardist born in New Orleans, Louisiana. Booker's unique style combined rhythm and blues with jazz standards. Musician Dr. John described Booker as "the best black, gay, one-eyed junkie piano genius New Orleans has ever produced." Do yourselves a favour and read up on this most fascinating and nearly forgotten musical genius and trailblazer. This version is THE best version of Junco Partner ever recorded.		0:38:54 (Pop-up)

Music behind DJ: Colpitts	Bread "Bread" by "Colpitts"	Music From The Accident	Thrill Jockey	2022	Music from John Colpitts / aka Kid Millions, (Man Forever Oneida) Released Mar 2022: "Music from the Accident illuminates Colpitts’ tenacious spirit and sheer ingenuity as a composer. Far from becoming depressed by a random act that could have ended his ability to play, Colpitts transformed the obstacle into an opportunity for creative and emotional growth. The creative process is truly inseparable from the final piece, the transformation and ultimate transcendence of an artist crystalized into a prism of immeasurable radiance.

Grotto Terrazza	Der Zaubergeselle	Der Zaubergeselle/Inspektor Gingo Single	Maple Death Records	2022	Translated from the German to "The Magician". Grotto Terrazza is the project of Thomas Schamann, a music maker and independent publisher from Munich who also plays in Berlin darkwave band Bleib Modern. He combines German beat poetry with icy post-punk and shadowy industrial, constructed from the found-sound building blocks of musique concrete and borrowing as much from folk noir murder ballads as it does EBM.		1:32:52 (Pop-up)
Working Mens Club	Cut "Cut" by "Working Mens Club"	Fear Fear	Heavenly Recordings	2022	Working Mens Club are back! Sophomore albums can be difficult...but this album has confidence in which it just really does what it wants, you can hear the nods to Kraftwerk; 80’s electro; New Order; Depeche Mode; Propaganda etc throughout the songs, with happy, uplifting music underpinning occasionally really dark lyrics, which sit somewhere between club classics and incidental TV music. Of the song "Cut" Breaking down its creation, Minksy-Sargeant says: “I had the synth and drum machine backing track done for about a year. It used to have this really long sample on the front of it from a 1979 New York gang documentary – 80 Blocks from Tiffany’s. Then it was an instrumental, Kraftwerk/Kraut-y thing. Then the lyrics just came to me in the shower; this monologue came out of my head after thinking about lots of things in society and then I wrote that guitar part at the same time.”	*	1:37:13 (Pop-up)
Big Fun	Rubberband "Rubberband" by "Big Fun"	Oogley Boogley	Guttertech Records	2021	Not to be confused with the 80's British Boy Band..this is a different Big Fun. They are from LA. They dress weird and colorfully. They appear to have no fucks to give. Their noisy, hard hitting, electronic rock style riffs on the idea that things which are scary can also be funny and things that are funny can also be scary. They describe themselves as "Dance-Punk, Surf-Punk, Synth-Rock and so on, but we like to describe it as ‘Gutter-Tech”. The sound of Gutter tech is made up of electronic instruments thrown into an abrasive rock environment." The video for this song is quite fun indeed.		1:44:10 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Wet Satin	Golden Prawn "Golden Prawn" by "Wet Satin"	Golden Prawn Single	Fuzz Club	2022	I could listen to this on repeat forever. It's the vibes. Wet Satin is Californian electronic/experimental duo Jason Miller and Marc Melzer. Taking a step away from the brain-frying space-rock/psych wig-outs harnessed in their 15 years playing together in Lumerians, Wet Satin deals in what the duo call "Kosmische Tropicale" – an expression of reverence and enthusiasm growing from a long-time shared obsession with lost Cosmic Disco, Cumbia, Afrofunk and Library Music records. “We started writing this album during a pretty bleak and heavy time, which I guess sort of sounds like ‘we started writing this album on a Wednesday’ now, but that's sort of the point too. There's an endless buffet of suffering you have a lifetime pass to gorge yourself on whenever you want it, but there's also a lesser-known dance club attached where you can work off some of those doom calories. Music has the ability to alter your environment and take you somewhere else. We genuinely had a lot of fun writing and recording this. The process fell somewhere in between over-indulgence and necessary catharsis, but it achieved a kind of balance in the end. It's a travel brochure for a very specifically peculiar psychological terrain. We think you'll have fun there. Try the hot springs.”	*	1:48:13 (Pop-up)
Robocobra Quartet	Wellness "Wellness" by "Robocobra Quartet"	Living Isn't Easy	First Taste Records	2022	Make no mistake, Belfast’s Robocobra Quartet are angry (and also a bit sad). As a channel for drummer and bandleader Chris W Ryan’s personal and political rage, their brand of jazz ranges from snarky funk to post-punk polemic. Of "Wellness"...Ryan’s plagiarism of an influencer’s morning routine, lifted verbatim from a newspaper article, provides some excellent lyrical material. As the protagonist’s claims about nootropics and salt lamps get more and more ridiculous (“After I've had my coffee, I fill out a spreadsheet on my computer with how well I've slept and my urine PH.”), a cute slice of funk devolves into screeching saxophone and growling guitars – a juxtaposition that highlights the dystopian vibe of our late capitalist obsession with health.		1:55:44 (Pop-up)
Flossing	Men On The Menu "Men On The Menu" by "Flossing"	Men On The Menu - Single	Brace Yourself Records	2022	Heather Elle (ex-BODEGA/The Wants) moves from rhythm section mainstay to haunting front-woman and pop poet as Flossing. ‘Men On The Menu’ sees a mind-melting Flossing debut for Brooklyn noise saxophonist Kate Mohanty, who tears at the seams of the relentless industrial thrust and subterranean bass causing Flossing’s sound to coast beautifully into noise/ psychedelic territory. Guitar parts by Elijah Sokolow (The Living Strange) – who joins the live project on guitar – rattle around the mix alongside wobbling synths, both elements shift the song into a higher gear as the listener is forced forward into a pool of sweat-inducing industrial noise. Alongside the single, Elle comes out as queer, and elaborates: “I’m finally detangling myself from the compulsive hetero regime that’s fooled me, failed me, and f*cked me.”		1:58:47 (Pop-up)
Sounds Of The Ocean	Beach Sounds "Beach Sounds" by "Sounds Of The Ocean"	Ocean Sounds	Sounds Of The Ocean	2016			2:01:49 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Mhaol	Bored of Men "Bored of Men" by "Mhaol"	Bored Of Men - Single	TULLE	2022	Dublin/London/Bristol band and favourite of Babs here on the beach. Fiercely political and feminist, they tackle issues of gender and equality with savage teeth. Speaking of the track, vocalist Róisín Nic Ghearailt states: "I wrote the lyrics of this song in a matter of minutes while we were recording together. The ideas had obviously been fermenting in my head for a while, and it was written during that extremely disconcerting & alarmingly public court case. The title of the song is very tongue in cheek for me, but it does reference a real sense of frustration and exhaustion with the patriarchy. When I say the patriarchy I don’t mean individuals (although they can obviously perpetuate it), I mean institutional and structural oppression."		2:07:09 (Pop-up)
