Artist: The Pendulums
Title: Moon Mountain (Forest Mix)
Once upon a time, a young man named Mike, was sitting on a bus with a young lady called Lavinia in the Heelans o’ Scoatlan going at about a hunner miles an oor roond a cliff edge. They magically created the idea of a band called The Pendulums and swiftly set about finding the other members from the five corners of the town ! After a chance meeting with Mr Martin Beer at a Gong gig on the river Clyde, a trio was formed. Then began their adventures with Mr Dimensional. He was a mysterious character who claimed to come from a magical village known as Kirkmichael and would often disappear without a trace. One day, he did and he hasn’t been seen since…. Mr John Charles Wilson, a weirdo, had often been seen in various guises with the Pendulums, bangin’ a bodhran dressed as a horse or jist fiddlin’ aboot. And after several cups of tea, a local type called James liked the band so much that he said he would join by playing drums over everything which worked out so well that they let him play trombone as well. He now drives them all over the place in his fire engine. And then Mike asked his neighbour who was called Solveig to join on fiddle, cackle and mischief, helping to blend the whole magical potion in the cauldron of somthin’. And thus, the Pendulums were created and they wrote many songs about socks and sunshine and witches and eyes and hats and other stuff.

Artist: John Crave
Song title: Blasted Heath
Written and produced by John Crave (guitar, vocals, harmonica) featuring Endicott Johnson (bass, drums, guitar solo) and the completely candid tape-recording of some winos on a Queens, NYC park bench
John Crave often sings about wheat. He blasts out of open land into the future. Out of the land of the Thundermist and into a private dimension of color and audio textures. A sexxxy universe.
During the Ancient Battle of Kelv, Crave wielded his guitar against armies of gorillas and bears, leading his Mighty Children up to the barren mountaintops of deep Eastern Europe.
It was here that Crave forged a lion belt from the carbon of the highest peak, thus founding a new civilization of sound. Along with the founding fathers; Kurt Battles, Barry Riffs, Bartleby, Scrap Dog, Endicott, Dahm, and The Bother, Crave harnessed the powers of the earth and the sky.
They befriended the Strident Falcons which brought them stalks of grain. They planted the seeds which flourished in the golden light. They ate wheat and it was good. Laser Quails brought them the branches of the maple tree which they planted. They drank maple syrup and it was good. A friendly Power Ape brought them a bee hive. They ate honey and it was good.
On the 76th day, the Green Mockingbird led them down the mountain and into a verdant valley full of fruit, flowers and Hot Hotties. The situation was pornified properly and it was good.
Yet, as soon as it began it was gone. During the night, John Crave was plucked from the mountaintop and taken aboard a flying ship by Fast Angels. THE REST OF HIS DAYS WOULD BE STRANGE.
He never fully recovered from the dark night and he never divulged what happened aboard the ship, but he was reported to wonder “Am I alien or am I studied by them?”
His visions were forever haunted by aliens, doppelgangers and aggressive machines. Yet, still, he seeks adventure, finds the unknown and dreams of all things golden
