…Watch them coming out of their bloated coccoons under the cold soil, all furry with sharp claws bristling, what an uplifting yet freakish celebration of life when they jump on top of their first victim, a small telepathic fox from the Tundra Borealis, tear it to pieces, drink its nurturing blood and feast in its stinking entrails, proteins immediately processed, feeding the growth of leathery wings that spread into the air of the night, babies flying under the twin moons, climbing into the purple sky, getting ready for their transition into the interstellar void to begin a journey which ends with their landing in the murky swamp of your worst nigthmares.

We have been to other worlds and seen some sick shit. Babies I say, H.R. Giger ain’t got shit on babies.

We begin our baby post with an exclusive off BabyTalk’s Keep on Move, the first reference in Stickydisc Recordings, a record label started by Eric Broucek, DFA’s studio man, you know this is gonna be good.

Babytalk- Keep on Move (dub)

Raise your left hand and spread your fingers in a Vulcanian peace gesture as this majestic tune enters your aural space stopping for but a milisecond, open its hatch welcoming you in to go on an awesome trip into the future of Earth, when our puny species has disappeared or trascended into the singularity leaving strange ruins and gigantic shiny bubbles for alien archeologists to ponder upon.

Gigantic forests cover the land, the glowing sun hides below the line of the horizon as lovely cosmic synths which bring to mind the Ponty and the Hancock raise into the air, strange birds of colourful feathers and aerodynamic shapes beating their wings to the rhythm of a bassline which pounds with the strength of a new planet being born (and would make Tyler Pope shake his booty like there was no tomorrow).

The A side of Keep on Move has graced James Murphy’s new FabricLive comp, and is also killer, get moving and get it.

Then on to Baby Oliver, who has released, in our beloved Environ imprint (do you know Metro Area yeah?) the Feelings 2 EP. The A side is a perfect jig to celebrate the arrival of that golden disco baby which comes out of a bizarro artificial womb at the end of Demon Seed, it’s good for mankind so you should be happy, in spite of all the weirdness.

He is Proteus, and he wants to party.

So he’s getting-

-Crazy cowbell disco dynamite sounds, check.
-Synth boogie line flexing to send Prince into a twith & glitch seizure, check
-Jacking Chicago breakdown with enough whaaa to set the warehouse on fire, check, pumping!

All blended with good eye, strong muscle, ability and soul, and laced with the sort of pristine production we have come to expect from the awesome releases in this label, always get us happy, always get us dancing, they call the shots.
