Dip Your Hip

I have been a huge fan of Justin Robertson's work since I first heard his remixes at the start of the 1990s, continuing with his own material as Lionrock and various other guises throughout the decade and beyond.

The multi-tasking Justin has successfully worked as a DJ, music producer, painter, author and broadcaster for the past 30 years. Does this man sleep?! Clearly not judging by his musical output alone, a ton of which - new and unearthed from the vaults - has been released to the world via Bandcamp since June this year.

Today's selection dips into Justin's 21st Century output, from 2001's 'lost' classic album as Revtone to remixes for Noel Gallagher, Temples, Justice and The Whip and his continuing remixes as releases as Justin Robertson's Deadstock 33s.

 

There's so much to choose from that I struggled to keep it under an hour and a half, but I'm happy with the final selection and I hope you are too.

 

The post title is lifted from a sample used on the track Velocity Falls, a 1980s nugget, written by Chas Jankel and Ian Dury.

October

It's 1st October so the obvious thing to do is post a selection of songs that I last played on 1st October in previous years, from 2021 going all the way back to 2014, with apologies for the latter to Blonde Redhead, Willie Nelson & Sinéad O'Connor and The Sisters Of Mercy, you've been sorely neglected.

 

Forty five minutes of music, randomly collated but lovingly sequenced into a sepia-tinged Saturday soundtrack. Feel and hear the leaves crunch underfoot as you shuffle along, occasionally letting yourself drop into a little jig when you think no-one is looking.

 

1) Silently: Blonde Redhead (2007)

2) Don't Give Up (Cover of Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush): Willie Nelson ft. Sinéad O'Connor (1993)

3) Everybody's On The Run (Radio Edit): Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds (2012)

4) Manipulating Woman: Ladyhawke (2008)

5) Something Fast (Album Version): The Sisters Of Mercy (1990)

6) Falling Down (SBN (Student Broadcast Network) Session): Turin Brakes (2003)

7) Ü (Angry Side): Kleenex (1979)

8) Lost In A Melody (Radio Edit By Graham Sutton): Delays (2004)

9) Crying Blood (Moody Boyz Front Line Re-Rub): VV Brown (2008)

10) Put You Down: Grant McLennan ft. Syd Straw & Esta Hall (1994)

11) Wiseblood (Johnny Jewel Alternate Version): Zola Jesus (2018)
