Cool & Strange Music for April 12, 2016! Stan Freberg, The Privates (Japan), Messer Chups!

2016年4月12日 / No Comments

We’re back to Cool & Strange Music for April 12, 2016! And we have a special edition! And we have a world debut!

At #3 is a Japanese rock band from Tokyo named, The Privates. These guys have been rocking for over 30 years! April 16 is “Record Store Day” and they’re going to release their cover version of the 1966 hit by the American band, “The Litter.” Here’s the Privates FB page: https://www.facebook.com/ThePrivates/?fref=ts

#3) The Privates – Action Woman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlHfjMx31Dw

At #2 is a regular on the Cool & Strange Music Countdown. It’s Messer Chups. They are one of my favorite acts of the year! They are a Surf Rock trio, Oleg Gitaracula, Zombierella and Dr Boris, from St. Petersburg Russia. Do they surf in Russia? Sounds like a Ramones record. They are hot! Here is their FB page, check it out: https://www.facebook.com/messerchups/

#2) Messer Chups – Sex Euro And Evils Pop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLPBo3ItZ8g

At #1 is another twisted tune like the Tom Lehrer song from a few weeks ago, “Poisoning Pigeons in the Park.” This song, too is hilarious. It is by comedian and music composer, Stan Freberg. What makes this tune incredible is that it is only Stan in the studio and he is doing both voices of a couple named John and Marsha. He goes all through the trials and tribulations of a relationship, and he does it by only saying “John” and “Marsha.” It’s hilarious. The engineers for this recording must have been shocked when Stan walked in and started recording this treasure!

#1) Stan Freberg – John and Marsha https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qITSBcLZvrs

Well that’s it for Cool & Strange Music for this week. Have a great week! – Mike in Tokyo Rogers

Cool & Strange Music for April 5, 2016! Messer Chups, New Piccadillys, Residents, Sloth Baby and the Land Pirates,

2016年4月5日 / 1 Comment

We’re back to Cool & Strange Music for April 5, 2016! Here is this week’s chart of the most out of this world musical wackiness and bizarreness! You have good timing! Today’s line up has a definite Rock N Roll groove to the tunes…. Imagine the Rock N Roll bands that would be playing with the ghosts at the Haunted Mansion in Disney.

First up is our favorite crossover (often on the Top 3 Indies video countdown too) act of the year! They are Oleg Gitaracula, Zombierella and Dr Boris, a Surf Rock trio from St. Petersburg Russia. They are hot! Here is their FB page, check it out: https://www.facebook.com/messerchups/

#3) Messer chups -Shandor Diabolikov https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6q8Zvc0t2M4

Next up is some bizarreness I stumbled upon whilst searching for Cool & Strange tunes. This is very strange and has a fab video. Their name is Sloth Baby & the Land Pirates and they describe themselves as a “Psychedelic death science” band (what does THAT mean?) and they are from Morristown, New Jersey… I think. Here’s their FB page: https://www.facebook.com/SlothBabyLandPirates/?fref=ts

#2) Sloth Baby & the Land Pirates – Surf Gypsies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElRxh8HypMo

NOW TIME FOR AN INTERLUDE! Well, after that Sloth Baby & the Land Pirates video, you should be ready for anything. Next up is a band who is legendary in Cool & Strange music circles, the Residents. This band is amazing. Here’s what Wikipedia says:

“The Residents are an American art collective best known for avant-garde music and multimedia works. Since their first official release, Meet the Residents (1974), the group has released over sixty albums, numerous music videos and short films, three CD-ROM projects, and ten DVDs. They have undertaken seven major world tours and scored multiple films. Pioneers in exploring the potential of CD-ROM and similar technologies, the Residents have won several awards for their multimedia projects. Ralph Records, a record label focusing on avant-garde music, was started by the band. Throughout the group’s existence, the individual members have ostensibly attempted to operate under anonymity, preferring instead to have attention focused on their art output. Much outside speculation and rumor has focused on this aspect of the group. In public, the group appears silent and costumed, often wearing eyeball helmets, top hats and tuxedos—a long-lasting costume now recognized as its signature iconography. Its albums generally fall into two categories: deconstructions of Western popular music; and complex conceptual pieces, composed around a theme, theory or plot.”

Get that? The simple answer to who these folks are is much more convoluted. Here’s their FB page: https://www.facebook.com/TheOfficialResidents/?fref=ts

FREEBIE: The Residents – Yes/No https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhV3fkB2eUM

At #1 this week is a great band that does a fab cover of the Ramones’ “Judy is a Punk.” The band’s name is the New Piccadillys. The New Piccadillys are a four piece beat group from Glasgow, Scotland combining a 1960s sound with a 1970s punk rock. Twanging guitars and pounding drums provide the backing for their tight harmony beat versions of classics such as The Ramones’ Judy is a Punk and many other Rock ‘n’ Roll treasures from various eras all given The New Piccadillys infectiously fresh treatment. Here is their FB page: https://www.facebook.com/The-New-Piccadillys-144760422258122/?fref=ts

#1) The New Piccadillys – Judy is a Punk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gl-HEUo-Js

Well that’s it for Cool & Strange Music for this week. Have a great week! – Mike in Tokyo Rogers

Cool and Strange Music Countdown – Mar. 28, 2015 – Coldcut and Hexstatic, Tom Lehrer, Sweden Heaven and Hell!

2016年3月28日 / 2 Comments

We’re back to Cool & Strange Music for March 29, 2016! This is THEE Cool and Strange Music chart! The only one that matters (probably the only one that exists, actually…) Here is this week’s chart of the most out of this world musical bizarreness!

On last week’s Cool and Strange Music Countdown I got thousands and thousands of emails from folks who just went crazy over the Hexstatic version of Nancy Sinatra’s “These Boots Are Made For Walking.” People wrote that they want to see more! (Okay, well, maybe “thousands” is a bit of a stretch! This is Coldcut and Hexstatic. Awesome!

#3) Coldcut and Hexstatic – Timber https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8-QDCKdVO4

It’s Springtime in Japan! And what song always reminds me of Spring? It’s Tom Lehrer! Thomas Lehrer is an American singer-songwriter, satirist, pianist, and mathematician. He has lectured on mathematics and musical theater. He is best known for the pithy, humorous songs he recorded in the 1950s and ’60s.

This song is hilarious! Check out the lyrics of Tom Lehrer’s “Poisoning Pigeons in the Park”:

Spring is here, spring is here,
Life is skittles and life is beer,
I think the loveliest time of the year
Is the spring, I do, don’t you? Course you do
But there’s one thing that makes spring complete for me
And makes every Sunday a treat for me

All the world seems in tune on a spring afternoon
When we’re poisoning pigeons in the park
Every Sunday you’ll see my sweetheart and me
As we poison the pigeons in the park
When they see us coming
The birdies all try and hide
But they still go for peanuts
When coated with cyanide

The sun’s shining bright
Everything seems all right
When we’re poisoning pigeons in the park

We’ve gained notoriety
And caused much anxiety
In the Audobon Society
With our games
They call it impiety
And lack of propriety
And quite a variety of unpleasant names

But it’s not against any religion
To want to dispose of a pigeon

So if Sunday you’re free
Why don’t you come with me
And we’ll poison the pigeons in the park
And maybe we’ll do in a squirrel or two
While we’re poisoning pigeons in the park
We’ll murder them amid laughter and merriment
Except for the few we take home to experiment
My pulse will be quickenin’
With each drop of strychnine
We feed to a pigeon
It just takes a smidgin
To poison a pigeon in the park

#2) Tom Lehrer – Poisoning Pigeons In The Park https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhuMLpdnOjY

At #1 is something that is very Cool and Strange. It’s Sweden Heaven and Hell, Here’s what Wikipedia says: “Sweden: Heaven and Hell (Italian: Svezia, inferno e paradiso) is an Italian mondo film from 1968 directed by Luigi Scattini. The film which is made up of nine segments that focus on different aspects of sexuality in Sweden such as lesbian nightclubs, porn films, swinging lifestyle of married couples and sex education of teenagers (“…lesbian nightclubs, porn films, swinging lifestyle of married couples and sex education of teenagers”!? I’m in!- Mike). The film also examines drug addiction, alcoholism and suicides in Sweden (Been there. Done that. – Mike) The film also featured the debut of the song “Mah Nà Mah Nà” by Piero Umiliani.

#1) Sweden Heaven And Hell (Svezia Inferno E Paradiso) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tj_jaAsTpHg

Well that’s it for Cool & Strange Music for this week. As Mr. Spock would say, “Live well and prosper!” Have a great week! – Mike in Tokyo Rogers

Cool and Strange Music Countdown – Mar. 21, 2015 – Mr. Diagonal, Hexstatic, Messer Chups, Messer Fur Frau Muller!

2016年3月22日 / 2 Comments

We’re back to Cool & Strange Music for March 21, 2016! This week’s chart is the grooviest and most out of this world line up of musical bizarreness on the planet!

Today, I have some homework to catch up on so, let me clear out my Cool & Strange cabinet. First up is a band we featured last week called Messer Chups. Messer Chups is a trio from St. Petersburg, Russia (used to be called Leningrad for all you geekoholics!) Messer Chups have tons of fab tunes. They used to be in a unit called “Messer fur Frau Muller” and I’ll tell you more about them in a minute. But first, this awesome twist for all you David Lynch and Twin Peaks fans! Here’s their FB page: https://www.facebook.com/messerchups/?fref=ts

#3) Messer Chups – Twin Peaks Twist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZZHrK311aw

Next up is another artist that debuted two week’s ago on our Cool & Strange Music countdown. It’s Hexstatic from Jolly Old. Two guys who mix up visuals as well as sounds. This is an awesome mashup of the 1966 smash hit by Frank Sinatra’s daughter Nancy Sinatra. Here is Nancy’s original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbyAZQ45uww. Now check out the Hexstatic mashup. This is KILLER!

#2) Hexstatic – Nancy`s Boots https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wu8VEN4K83o

At #1 is the band that was the original configuration of Messer Chups. Their name was Messer fur Frau Muller (In English that translates to: “A Knife for Mrs. Muller.”) There isn’t much information about either band on English language pages on the internet, but one common thing I’ve noticed is that the guitarist, Oleg Gitarkin and that hot Russian goddess on bass, Svetlana Zombierella Nagaeva, were in both bands. This next song was one of, if not the, most requested song in the 25-year history of my radio show.

#1) Messer fur Frau Muller – The Best Girl in USSR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUzcKlgy_a4

SPOTLIGHT ARTIST! Today a special treat! It’s Mr. Diagonal. Not much seems to be known about Mr. Diagonal but we do know that he was once a member of Mr. Diagonal and the Black Light Orchestra which was a group that consisted of a guy named Mr. Diagonal and two statues (judging by their FB page). Now, according to informed sources, Mr. Diagonal suddenly disappeared on Feb. 29, 2016 and hasn’t been seen since. Some are suspecting “fowl” play. I suspect he’s “chicken.” Nevertheless, he is under contractual agreement to appear in Japan for several shows starting today, in fact, and lasting until the end of this month. To prevent Mr. Diagonal from being sued in Japanese court, I hear that Dan Barbenel has agreed to step in and perform at these shows…

I’m sure Interpol will be there too with questions for about the sudden disappearance of Mr. Diagonal and where Mr. Barbenel was at the time. Go check it out. Tour dates below the video. Here is Mr. Diagonal’s FB page: https://www.facebook.com/mrdiagonal/?fref=ts

SPOTLIGHT ARTIST! Mr Diagonal – Holiday on Ice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrVKsWx_CKc

MARCH 22-31 – Dan Barbenel solo tour of Japan. Here’s the webpage URL: http://mrdiagonal.com/
