Late Night Stargazing

I haven’t posted any Super Furry Animals for a while, and I’m not going to now either.

But I am going to post a tune on which Furry-in-Chief Gruff Rhys provides vocals.

This is from FC Kahuna’s wonderful album from 2002, Computer Says Yes:

FC Kahuna – Fear of Guitars

I should warn you: the rest of the album does not sound anything like that.

It is just as good as that, though.

More soon.

Late Night Stargazing

I’d imagine that if you said asked people what the word “Kahuna” most reminds them of, I’d wager that many would name a (pulp) fictional burger from Quentin Tarantino’s masterpiece:

Others might point to a couple of DJs who released their only album of original material, “Machine Says Yes”, back in 2002, under the name FC Kahuna, and it is to them that we’re turning to for tonight’s bit of late night mellowness.

FC Kahuna are mostly known for their big beat tunes, but this is far, far from that sound. Bleepy without being irritating, a slightly vocodered female vocal; it’s sparse, pulsating, gorgeous  :

FC Kahuna – Hayling

More soon.
