The Enigma of Conrad Murray ▀▀ Mixtape

Download link

The Enigma of Conrad Murray is a kaleidoscopic collage of dark liquid disco, chopped-and-screwed, and psychedelia featuring Coil, Ludacris, and Cabaret Voltaire. This exclusive mixtape continues Nicolai's series of audio collages for Man Bites Blog. Distorted rhythms, bit-crushed beats, and droned-out samples combine to make this the most intriguing piece in the series so far.

The 13th episode sees the usual array of the unusual. Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake mainlined via that fifties jukebox sound, Amy Winehouse gets a Moody Boyz molestation, and The Prodigy's Voodoo People gets a jazzfunk makeover. Electronics, Shoegaze, vintage outsider folk all make it onto the playlist. This episode is dirtier than the Cameron, Clegg, and Brown, 3 politicians 1 cup video. It's voodoo-hoodoo and that's what you don't say to people!
