Bingo Gazingo “Oh Madonna (You Stole My Pants)” – This is taken from one of my acquisitions from this past weekend’s WFMU record fair. The Bingo Gazingo cd was produced by several current and former WFMU DJs, including the wildly prolific musician R. Stevie Moore. Together, they accompany Mr. Gazingo, a ranting elderly gentleman with an unlikely obsession with 90s pop culture. “Oh Madonna (You Stole My Pants)” is the album’s disco number, and features a lusty and surreal ode to Ms. Ciccone by Gazingo which contains some highly quotable one-liners and couplets. This disco tune is so leftfield that’s it’s just beyond the bleachers and out in the parking lot.

Seelenluft “Manila (Ewan Pearson remix)” – This is Ewan Pearson’s electro-funk mix of the Swiss DJ Seelenluft’s collaboration with a 12 year old rapper from Compton named Michael Smith. Smith’s vocals are pretty interesting – he’s at that age when boys can sound slightly androgynous, which lends itself well to this style of music, which doesn’t always mesh well with overly masculine performances. Also, the youthful exuberance in his voice makes the lyrics about dancing in a crashing aircraft sound slightly less morbid, though at the same time a bit creepier.

Elsewhere: Never Came Home is another brand new MP3 blog, and features some links to others which I was not aware of, such as Listen Closer, Canto Do Leo, and Royal Music.
