They wandered aimlessly along the streets, ignoring the looks that passers-by gave them. 'Could all red armbands please leave the pool?'  the strange voice had said. They had been wearing red armbands so the voice had obviously meant them ... Men In Speedos. It was time ... they had been called ... into the light before them ... few could understand the difference the lycra clad musicians would make ...


Men In Speedos consists of Twinkle Fingers, Chooch & Uberbeard. Twinkle Fingers is so named due to his ability to irrepairably change tracks, software & hardware for the greater good in this world with the push of a button, or the flick of an enter key ... Chooch harks from a time when we were known as the Fat Cats, and he mooched like Chooch, but let him loose in your studio and he will find bleeps & squeaks the likes of which Gods have never heard ... and Uberbeard uses the power of his beard and it's magnetic field to disrupt computers, software & hardware, but usually when no-one is about to verify that it wasn't him, but a rip in the space-time continuum!! Their style is very diverse, and remarkably difficult to pinpoint in terms of genres, so just listen to it, and enjoy!


With a soft spot for film samples, the tracks have a definite sound track quality, some with dance floor appeal.  We thank kindly all the various record stations & DJs round the globe who've played our music ... and for those who've said they loved it, the bottle of whiskey is in the post.

Please Note: On The audio above there is an electronic note saying ' Red Label records' This is not present in the release copy.

 

This album has a couple of remastered tracks from other albums because they fitted with the overall sound that we were trying to create with this album.  We wanted it to flow from one tempo and style into the next without really having to notice it.


This is helped with the samples of the trips to Amsterdam that were recorded and then carefully placed in the mix as one track faded out and the next faded in.

14. World of Domination

This album was created in between several studio moves, and had a lot more diversity in terms of tempos and styles ... maybe because we were creating the music in 4 different studio surroundings over the period of a year it caused a bit of diversity.  Or maybe we were getting bored of the same patterns and rythyms.

We had really started to get into audio only sample based production at this point, and very little, if any of what you'll hear was hardware created.

This is a collection of the first set of tracks that we ever completed.  For quick a time we weren't quite sure how to finish tracks, and so we had half completed songs.
