Communing with the spirits of nature

Featuring:

exuma & nazareth

First things first – 20jfg needs you ! The idea: 20jfg have commissioned some remixes of an artist close to their heart, by other artists close to their heart. The results are pretty amazing we have to say.These remixes need some visuals – from you dear reader! The deal: It’s pretty simple. If you want…

Death of the Hunter

Featuring:

Cassie & Fan Death

(image supplied by Tommy Boy) Whilst Ciara single-handedly continues to bring to life the Arabian Prince, chrome plated Janet Jackson collaboration of my electric dreams, I await with a foaming mouth and bloodshot eyes for Cassie to emerge from the vapour mists once more with a record which if the faint callings that have so…

Digging for gold

The 20JFg psycho-geologists stand on the spot in space and time that they have been allotted and behold the history of dance music as it surrounds them, glorious highs and abysmal lows, lovely fountain springs of joy over which birds of colourful plumage swirl free, arid taigas covered in snow where almost nothing moves, fractal…

Future bliss

Featuring:

Gatto Fritto & Subway

Where up and coming master of the cosmic oscillator Gatto Fritto creates, in his remix of Subway’s Simplex, a warm epic to awaken to as twin stars dawn over a Terran colony in a galaxy far away, reflecting refulgent on the shiny surfaces of a crystal architecture built by people wiser than us. Many dudes…

Bleeding but breathing

Featuring:

Fucked Up & Growing

The 20JFg crew would like to apologise for the lack of updates in the last few days, but we have faced clouds of stress, been entrapped by chains of commitment, wrath and fury, survived the attacks of gremlin saboteurs and erm, something, so before those devilish tongues stretch cruel from the pit to swallow us…

Yo, Tanhauser Gate

It is with an apocalyptic feeling of anticipation that we await for the activation of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Geneva. Of course our puny brains cannot even start to elucidate the sort of physics involved in the experiments that are to be conducted there, so we have decided to think about all…

Wail-Vomit

Featuring:

pocahaunted & tan lines

Aside from the fact that they have a name which is all kinds of awesome and which never fails to put a smile on my face (note: a t-shirt needs to be invested in), Pocahaunted are a pretty rad proposition. To be completely honest before I’d even heard a single note of their music I…

Love your hunter

I asked the incredibly talented Chris Pell for some of his awesome illustrations, and lo and behold the astonishing triad he has summoned specially for us as they illuminate these black spaces in all their sublime and twisted glory. The strength of their psychedelic imaginery has dispelled the pseudo-writer’s block that afflicted me, imagine my…

Over Ice, After Dark

Featuring:

ice, Lovelock & Odessa

Just over a year ago, your fiendish 20JFG writers got all excited about a track called ‘Love Reaction’ by Lovelock that was passed to us on a blood-flecked CD by a backwards-talking multi-tentacled demon from a frozen purple dimension. It was a tale of neon infused trysts between shear cheek-boned society girls with too much…

Fuck sweet summer of 69

This Saturday the 20JFG shall be going up to London for some more adventures in Victoria Park, it is Field Day. We intend to sit down in a certain area identified after careful analyses of secret manuscripts and the casting of the runes over esoteric cabbalistic texts, which led to the retrieval of a corpse…
