Yoshimi vs. the Blue's Clues Robots
Flaming Lips/Blues Clues Collaboration Due Soon
...But sweet Mary and Joseph, the Flaming Lips have got to be indulging in too many Christmas trips to Mars, because when I read they'd be teaming with the guy from Blues Clues I truly flipped a lid. Well, I guess it was a proverbial lid, but still, I didn't trust any of my five senses after the Pitchfork announcement. Even tactile was in jeopardy! Since first reading about the project last year I sorta hoped it might have been quietly swept under an oversized Teletubbie-shaped rug or something, but it seems the Lips/Blues Clues collaboration now has a tracklist and a release date. Birthing this August 12th on PIAS, Steve Burns' Songs for Dustmites was produced by Lips soundsmith Dave Fridmann at Tarbox Road Studios and engineered by Lips bassist Michael Ivins. Lips drummer Steve Drozd plays on many of the songs as well. As for Wayne Coyne himself... well sir, Mr. Coyne does not appear on Songs for Dustmites. However, according to the administrator of the Blues Clues web page (my homepage, I'll have you know), the pair have 'hung out' and Burns may appear in the Lips' upcoming Christmas movie. Burns' website also contains a bevy of information, both nonsensical and practical, about the album, how he scores chicks and squirrels. You can even stream the songs in their entirety... .: Steve Burns: www.steveswebpage.com .: David Fridmann: www.netsync.net/users/fridmann
