In this update I bring you (*fanfare*) 2 more mixes wot I did. One of them was already available on the old site but the other hasn’t (unless I’m remembering wrong) been on any iteration of Monkeydo.org yet, although it did appear on another site for a while.

The live psy mix is from Thread Locked Hippies 2006.

The more experiemental techno set appeared on psystream.net for a bit under the following title:

“Admiral Flufftin’s Rainbow Filled Pie - I’ll never forget the day I met the Admiral. He took me out on his boat and fed me a rainbow filled pie that enabled me to see the mermaids. One of them took a shine to me and asked me to lick her nipples. They were the texture of barnacles and tasted strongly of salt.”

When I was learning to play metal bass guitar in my teens Metallica’s Cliff Burton was a big influence on me. I bought a distortion pedal for my bass and spent hours with the tab for Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth) trying to get those licks down. I probably should have bought a crybaby wah too really.

I loved the way Cliff bought the bass to the fore and gave it some full-on fretwankery to rival the lead guitarists and the fact that he dressed like Neil from The Young Ones was a bonus too.

So I was chuffed to find this video of him on You Tube giving it some big solo action.

Bizarrely after Cliff’s untimely death Metallica decided to pretend that the bass guitar didn’t exist on And Justice… taking it so low in the mix you can’t hear the damn thing.

 The drip feed of old sets continues with Monkey Do - Forza 2005.

I mixed this set in 2005 when I was playing a lot of Forza on the X-Box and needed something to help my laptimes, hence the name.

I’ve made this the next one available as I’ve spotted some activity in the search logs looking for this particular set.

That’s right I’m spying on everything you do. I am THE MAN. Fear me.
