Alright guys??? U all ghostin?
The General is working on some tunes in the studio today (9 Downing Street), but something grossly disgusting has happened. Someone has broken the microphone. I actually think it was DJ Tackyspine who came in yesterday. Horrible man, not even owning up to it. Yeah he did some terrible rap we did not include in the final track. That would have killed ya ear drums.
The General is trying to find inspiration. You guys see his DEBUT Jazz Album release? It came out last month. It was called the tacky title, 'Some General Jazz with The General'. Who does he fink he is? Anyway it sold really well but he says he wants to hit the ghostpop scene again. But the thing with The General is he's got to find something that inspires him, like a genre of sound. Then he likes to mix and match. Then i come along, no care in the world, and i spit on his stuff with excellent vocals am i right?  I don't need inspiration, i just do stuff whenever i can be bovvered.

<<< This is the cover for it, It is called Fantastic Four by Debra Hurd. (The painting) The album is obviously called 'Some General Jazz with The General'.
Its not available on-line, only in shops. Something to do with The General being against online stuff. I dunno.
Tracklist:
1. Livin in the Brass
2. The Yeti Man
3. 50
5. Love Oh
6. Ear Drums

I've not heard any of them but they sound convincing. 
It was released a month ago and it is already considered as RARE. HAHAHAHAHA
Okay anyway so The General is up for some more music after yesterdays DJ session. So just wanted to let you know.

Oh yeah and we were nominated for 2 awards.

Most experimental sound at UFARG Awards
for 'Mixbeat Sandwich' (Our track on Too Dumb to Panic)

and Most Piratey song at UFARG Awards
for our song 'Pirates'

We won both of them! Congrats us! No idea what UFARG Awards is though.

Mirror Press (Jamming session with DJ TekoSpine)

So DJ TekoSpine called up The General. These were his words exactly, "I know you guys are split and all, but I really like the tunes you dudes come up with yo? So Was finkin maybe you'd like to do some collab?"

So we all met back at the Ekalopse Recording Studio (9 Downing Street) and I got on the keyboard, and the General got on the bass.... horns... and drums. He is great you know. Anyway DJ TekoSpine did have the nerve to say "Course you can't play keyboard Pupendai, but you make ****** sound slightly listen-able."
I had to take that as a compliment else he would have smacked me in the face.
So anyway he turned on his Xtric-Plugkit which was on Guitar setting and started wahwahing our sounds. This was the result, nothin special. But if you're a fan you will not complain.

PS:
Guys the P-Sides has been cancelled or whatever. I got a call sayin they cancelling because HMV and Amazon and all that don't even want the album to sell. They say previous Ekalopse albums have not sold enough and one thats a P-sides aint even worth a shelf. So sorry kids. But to be honest all da songs on there are rubbish anyway! Jus likethe rest of our stuff.

Hey guys it is The General!
Just got the email about Panic Sides going up! Thought i'd let you know about it. A special song for me on it is Vu Ja day, which was our first and only attempt at a rap track. But unfortunately the rap fell flat when the artists just were not as interested as us!
A bitta rock rap anyway.
Got King Arthur on there, an electronic song 90% by the talented Pupendai.

Shut up

It's alright, I threw in a bounding beat, really made it alive I think. Did the same with the other tracks.

But ultimately all of the tracks on this record are terrible right?

Yes.

What the hell Xtric Plugblips? Just caus we gave the people a few world hits... Pirates, Buzzdrop... Picnic.. Bulldozed.. whatever... you feel like you can use our scrap music to get in some more cash?? Fans! Don't buy it.. urggg

Its Xtric Plugkits, Pupendai
