Monday's Long Song

 


I have been on a bit of an Ashley Beedle trip this weekend, immersing myself in both Ballistic Brothers albums, some 12" single and some of my favourite remixes including the immense Long Night and The Samba remix of One Night Stand by the Aloof which could have featured in this spot if I hadn't already posted it at least three times previously. Instead here is a beautiful deep mix of Simone Olayemi Adefikayo Ogunnbunmi excellent Unmask Me. This is just the sort of summery vibes that we need in early December. Just focus on the fact that in 14 days the days nights will start to draw out. 

The photie, is the vision that greeted me last Friday when I got up to get Max up for his work!

Hi, apologies for my ignorance but a quick question. "on a bit of an Ashley Beadle tip" - what does 'tip' mean here. I think I kind of, sort of know (ok, I don't!) but couldn't explain to someone else. Bit like when I first heard 'rip off' all those years ago, took a while for me to actually get what it meant. Thanks.

Thanks for pointing that out John, it was supposed to be trip, as in journey through the different bits of vinyl I have with his name on it somewhere

Drew, thanks. Yup, understand 'trip' but I have heard the phrase 'on a soul tip'. A quick Goggle found some interesting but, I think, irrelevant definitions in Urban Dictionary and also this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Soul-Tip-Various-artists/dp/B00VJTZ0VA

I think that it is the same sort of idea, that's the way I have always taken it to mean sort of "focusing on", I know that's what I have meant when I have used it in the past but I was definitely on a trip this weekend from the very early things by The Ballistic Brothers through to recent remixes

Cheers, makes sense

Mentioned in comments a while back I was looking for an mp3 of Manhattan Anthem, which I believe was part-Beadle. Managed to find one if you're interested

That would be magic Tom, thanks. I only have I Wanna Sing
