about
Charlie Mgee's "Revegetated" remix based around the principle of diversity with something of a circusy-hip-hop vibe bringing some swinging uke and ragtime piano cuts together with glitchy scat-vocals set to an undercurrent of funky beets. Featuring Harry Jakamarra on the banjo.
lyrics
If you mix every colour under the sun
in time you’ll find that you just have one
Better give them all a chance to shine
cos otherwise you end up with the same thing
It’s a delicate balancing act
and that applies to you and me
'Cause the only way we stay intact
Is with a big fat dose of diversity
Our bodies are a billion organisms made into one
There’s no telling where the last one ended
or where the next tiny little bacterium begun
You see, diversity is your friend and
If your food only had one flavour
If everything that you said was right
it really wouldn’t work to your favour
Variety is the spice of life
'Cos there’s many, many, many, many different kinds
and many, many, many, many different places
Many, many, many, many different times
many, many, many, many different faces
Many, many, different varieties
many, many, people in society
Many different opinions on the way to do things
many, many, many, many songs to sing
If you like everything to look the same
just open your mind and try to get past it
'Cos it really does make you stronger
when you don’t put all your eggs in one basket
The more functioning connections the better
You never know what it will become
Mix it up but keep it together
Make your differences work as one
'Cos there’s many many many different kinds
many, many, many, many different places
Many, many, many, many different times
many, many, many, many different faces
Many, many, different varieties
many, many, people in society
Many different opinions on the way to do things
many, many, many, many songs to sing
Mix it up, mix it up, mix it up
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back
'Cos there’s many many many different kinds
many, many, many, many different places
Many, many, many, many different times
many, many, many, many different faces
Many, many, different varieties
many, many, people in society
Many different opinions on the way to do things
many, many, many, many songs to sing

Simon Posford is a wizard, and his music is the cream of the crop in terms of providing the most return on your invested attention. the more closely you listen, the more richly you are rewarded. there are so many layers, so many twists and turns; it's not just an album, it's a journey through a world of sound. this is music that is truly unique, cutting edge, beautiful, psychedelic, complex, and unlike anything else on earth. mcgtunes
