Mount Kimbie — “Made To Stray”

Tuesday, March 19th, 2013

Mount Kimbie have a new record coming out this year, which is good news for fans of wonky British beats.

While the record from the duo is as-yet without title, the first track to be lifted from it is called “Made To Stray”, and gives us every hope that this is going to be a continuation of previous Mount Kimbie brilliance.

Sam’s Male Bag: Witness The Fitness

Friday, March 15th, 2013

Greeting Ladies and Genitals! Time again to dig into Sam’s Male Bag. This week’s letter doesn’t have anything to do with music really, unless you wanna go into some snoozy discourse about body image in popular culture. I certainly don’t. I just wanna finish this off so I can get back to eating pickles and watching Foxsports news. Our troubled soul this time is a gent called Bongo. Obviously some kind of Beatnik.

Hello Sam.

I’m keen to lose weight (for my lady) but maintain my Herculean intake of Golden Ale, red wine and triple brie.

You seem to be doing well without more than a day in the nets or on the field every week.

How do you do it?

Bongo

What can I say Bongo, old bean? Some folks got it, some folks ain’t!

So what’s your problem? Can’t get a gig? Don’t know what to get pierced? Send all your musical questions to samsmalebag@lifeisnoise.com and he’ll tell you exactly what you should do in every possible situation.
