Motorik Not Motorik


Songs lacking that certain thunka thunka ding, propulsion for the sidewalk rather than the Autobahn. Yes, it's another category which does not exist, except in our imaginations:

Fujiya & Miyagi - Collarbone
Whenever this comes over the headphones my gait suddenly changes into a strut. Perfect for any for any Can loving Tony Maneros secreted away in Osaka or London town.
**Buy it from Phonica**


Ciccone Youth - Two Cool Rock Chicks Listening to Neu!
J Mascis, why weren't you there to pick up on this phone call? The only thing that could improve upon this is some heavy breathing from Lee Ranaldo. Actually, I don't like that image.
**More on the Whitey Album, being reissued in April**


Scout Niblett - Kidnapped by Neptune
I guess she preferred fruit de mer to pomegranate seeds.
**Buy it at Amazon**


Stereolab - Excursions Into "oh, ah oh"
More grainy sparkle moog exhalations. There's that beat again.
**Coming up for a release in March**
