where does the time go ?

fuck me, a week or so has gone by already ! honestly, gang, i'm trying my hardest but this blogging shit is hard work. oh yeah ? why don't you have a go then ? anyway, since i last spoke to you the weather here in britain has turned really shitty. i've been working outside a bit recently and i've been getting soaked or cold or both ! my hands get cold really easily and the lads at work call me a big girl for wearing gloves. i've been wearing a woolly hat too...so fuck 'em !

back to the real shit...the picture above shouldn't get all the old ravers bouncing around because it ain't a bizarre inc tune i'm posting, no siree bob (as Rik once said in "The Young Ones"). there will be some old rave stuff soon, so watch out. fast forward a few years and two of the blokes from bizarre inc are turning out some "paradise garage soaked grooves" (as i saw them advertised in the virgin store in milton keynes. the buyer in the singles section there really knew his shit, simon was his name...i think. put me on to some great stuff with his hand written descriptions of records i'd never heard of. y'know, the white cards shoved in front of new releases to make you buy them). i digress, as usual, but isn't that why you come here ?

"chicken lips" were their name but i just didn't get it then. i was still buying stuff on junior and bedrock. i was into prog and big room house. i was on a fairly decent wage then and spent a bloody fortune on shite. now and again i'd pick up something different or be inspired by a charity shop find. there were a couple of "chicken lips" releases over about a 12 month period and some remixes by them too. still i didn't get it. remember some posts back i was going on about finding some cd gems in the bargain bin ? well the track i'm about to post was on a cd from that trawl.

"echoman" was the first lp by "chicken lips", and for £2 i thought what the hell ! i get home, put it on and think "ARSEHOLE !". why didn't i "get them" before ? unbelievable stuff. truly, truly ace ! so i'm a cock for not getting on to them earlier. for those that don't know, i present

chicken lips - you're not ready yet
