The music on "Many See Lies",the 23rd Bodycocktail release, has wonderful drifting time signatures that make it impossible to dance to in a conventionally funky way. Full of human inconsistencies with no attempt to 'tidy' them up to the modern standards of machine music....this is how it was entered on the computer.
Zan's voice reminds one of the kind of singer you'd hear in a Futurist/New Romantic group around 1981,like Classix Nouveaux,but obviously devoid of any pretentiousness
I was playing this the other day and my girlfriend asked me,"Doesn't this get on your fucking nerves?".
I didn't answer,but it probably outstayed its welcome after about twenty minutes.....but then again nearly everything does.That's why Teenage Jesus and The Jerks never played longer than 20 minutes; a natural timespan for the art of 'Pop'.

I'd like to hear this item, but the link is inactive.
Sorry,i've been in a rush all day,must have forgot to make the link....its available now.
Amazing music for the 1990s. Sounds to me like it's ten years too late, but none the worse for that. Thanks as ever JZ!
I think Bodycocktail started in 93,and is still going strong.He just finished a tour of Spain. Such endless creativity,and totally ignored by virtually everyone.
This is incredible. Thanks!
