I once dated a girl in the original Wallingford , Oxford, England. She lived very close to Brightwell-cum-Sotwell and I always thought that described our relationship very well.

Definitely a great one to play loudly with headphones, if not in a giant rave space.  Solid 8 from moi.

Absolutely love this ! I dance like a jellyfish going up the mountain. Every time I hear this song and I stop whatever it is that I’m doing and become the jellyfish.

First time I've heard this piece - it's a bit too long for my tastes.  My brain maxes out around 6-8 minutes.

Posted 4 years ago by radioparadise    [ Reply ]
Love love love Shpongle and all the Posford incarnations. Occasionally falls over into the silly side of bleeps and vocal manipulation but forgiveable: the underlying rhythms, layering of sound, production quality, complexity of time signatures and key modulations -- all brilliant. Keep on Shpongling.

Good point, but right now this feels like Shpongle is trying to be wild/different/surreal just for the sake of it.

I would disagree on this one, I think Shawn Phillips'

"She Was Waiting For Her Mother At the Station in Torino and You know I Love You Baby But It's Getting Too Heavy To Laugh" 

should have that title 
 
….or Pink Floyd's "Several Species of Small Fury Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict" could contend too....and a bizarre track at that....LLRP!!

Celtic Cross seems much more suited to RP than Shpongle. Not complaining, I love anything by Simon Posford but I've heard a ton of Shpongle and YB on here but never Celtic Cross.

Solid 8 for me , there are better Shpongle tunes but this still makes me want to dance.

I was relistening to the first 2 shpongle albums last week. some really great tracks there. Bill explore more shpongle

Nice To hear them here. Not my favorite track by far. They do better stuff when it's more "organic". A nice alternative to Ozric Tentacles. Thanks, Bill.

That's hypothetically speaking of course, because I find this enjoyable. Reminds me of Orbital's early stuff.

Back when this was "fresh" it was called  Rave Music and we took ecstasy.   Now it's EDM and we take Molly.   That's so it all still seems cool.

Good, but long. Like, how much longer? Sometimes long can be good, but this one is starting to get tedious.  Sometimes I wish I could fast-forward a song to see if I can handle listening to the rest of it or if serious boredom is going to set in.  Well, I can't wait any longer, time to PSD - unfortunately the 3rd one since Jethro Tull's Bouree.

To be shpongled is to be kippered, mashed, smashed, destroyed
