The second Greatest Remix Hits collection continued where the first left off, with rare remixes galore from Kylie's back catalogue. This volume also had the bonus inclusion of the original Australian single version of Locomotion, the first time the track was available other than on its original single release. Also included was a rare track recorded in Australia in 1987 called Getting Closer, which was originally intended to be Kylie's second single and was only ever available as the B-side to Locomotion in Europe.
I said I'll provide you with some more Ipecac Recordings… Here comes the mastermind behind all of this(Patton), at work on his most astounding project ! Enjoy
Responsible for one of the most eclectic catalogs of recent memory, Fantômas return with Suspended Animation, a thirty-track set that both celebrates the art of cartoon composition and the many reasons to behold the fourth month of our calendar, April (with one piece for each day of the month). Who knew that April is subtitled “national humor and anxiety month”? Who knew that the dreaded April 15 was actually titled “That Sucks Day” or that April 24 marks the beginning of National Karaoke Week? Leave it to the creative minds behind Fantômas to enlighten us to the many forgotten holidays throughout April.
The brainchild of Mike Patton, Fantômas is an anti-hero from a series of pre-WWI French crime novels, sometimes dubbed the “lord of terror.” Rounding out the ensemble are Buzz Osborne on guitar (Melvins), Trevor Dunn on bass (Mr. Bungle, Trevor Dunn’s Trio Convulsant) and Dave Lombardo on drums (Slayer).
