Mixmaster Morris in the mix
Mixmaster Morris just released a neat mix again, this time the set gravitates around Primal Scream’s Higher Than The Sun for 55 minutes. What a brilliant way to start a week like this.
Talking about Primal Scream, let me introduce you to Paul Cannell. He was responsible for the artwork of Screamadelica-era Primal Scream. Most famous of these was the "psychedelic fried eggs" illustration for that 1991 album, which the band adopted as their logo, too; also for Primal Scream's singles from the album, such as Higher Than The Sun and Don't Fight It, Feel It. Cannell created here a sort of fascinating and mind-bending combination of bright day-glo pop art colours and symbols, primitive art, expressionism and psychedelia; essentially creating a visual equivalent for Screamadelica's po-mo mixture of 60s retro psych-pop and electronic/dub sounds, Primal Scream's finest moment so far, which briefly epitomised the early-90s British "indie meets rave" scene.
