Basically the way the name scattermish came about, was with Para Jule, and OJ Rasta. Basically we were being trash bags back in high school days, and we decided to make pokemon names for each other. Para Jule was an obvious one for Julian cause he was a paranoid bastard, he’d do this funny thing were if you touched him on the back he’d spin around really quick with a raised fist behind his head and a crazy look in his eyes… was great fun when the principal once tapped his shoulder. OJ Rasta ain’t really all that Pokemonish, but it kinda is as well i reckon, it fits pretty well anyway. Then Jules came up with scattermish for me, because, as you all should know by now, i’m a scattered bastard. We had some special moves and stuff, one of mine was brush fire cause i used to have this mass of curly hair (and dreads at one stage… now i’m a balded eagle), anyway the deal was i could shoot fire outta my hair, great fun… I think i could scatter peoples minds and stuff too, and Para Jule could freak people out by sending bad brain waves.
I spose we should have really been doing all this stuff in primary school rather than high school, but hell, i’d enjoy an episode of Telly Tubbies right now damnit!
Ok so all this brings me to a song for a day, by none other than
Para One, and a mad arse track from his album Epiphanie, which i must say i’ve slept on way too much. Or rather i’ve just listened to dundun-dun on repeat (check out the
video which has a lot of pretty girls pilow fighting) and ain’t really checked out much else of the album. It’s weird, the albums really good, except as a club banger, you’d need the right crowd for a lot of the tracks as they’re kinda out there and glitchy, but with that said, listening to them all propperly, they could fit in really nicely to a set.
I found a new favorite track off the album though, the destroyed drums and transforming bass caught me quickly, and the beat just keeps getting cooler. I think it’s time for electro husters to start rolling:
I’m all about accessorising, so why not cop a bonus of a newish paraone remix of
Bloc Party‘s single The Prayer:
