ireland s legendary fish go deep duo team with the unique soulful singer songwriter mary cigarettes for this killer two-track vocal release >chemical god.< don t be fooled by the name - mary is a guy with a rugged, scratchy flow that reallyshines through on the main mix, highlighted by the tight percussion and key stabs of the track. definitely an appealing vocal for the ben watt and buzzin fly heads. on the flip the dub strips things down nicely with some disco strings and a tight hypnotic groove. not your usual generic house musicmessage but a real powerful song. great stuff on this one

lena andersson is a fictional character created by berlin-based japanese artist kyoka and irish producer eomac.

mark stewart first made his presence felt as the front man for the pop group in the late 1970s. they were pioneers of the post punk dance sound and had success with singles such as >she is beyond good and evil<, and >we are all prostitutes<. when the band split in 1980, mark joined the emerging on u sound crew as a part time member of the new age steppers. he then went on to form his own band with keith leblanc and doug wimbish, the rhythm section of the sugar hill gang, and guitarist skip mcdonald. with adrian sherwood and his production magic at the controls, the maffia unleashed an awesome mix of styles that sounded like bootsy collins jamming over a bootleg jah shaka tape in an urban warzone. this incredible mix of funk, dub and electronic overload pre empted techno and drum & bass by years. mark stewart, often copied, never bettered. the film retraces the singers steps and paths from the early days of the pop group right up to the present. schifer, who followed mark around for a full 3 years, has crafted a detailed, often intimate portrait of the artist, supplemented by interviews with a. o. mark stewart himself, adrian sherwood (on.u sound), daniel miller (mute records), nick cave, mick harvey, doug wimbish, skip mcdonald, keith leblanc, douglas hart (the jesus & mary chain), fritz catlin (23 skidoo), mike watt (minutemen, the stooges), gareth sager (the pop group, rip rig and panic), dan catsis (the pop group), john waddington (the pop group) janine rainforth (maximum joy), massive attack, keith levine (p.i.l.) and many others, plus never seen live recordings and music clips

the third in ben watts acclaimed mix series. high wattage stuff!!
