Kiss my tits!

I’m salivating so much that I need braces just to keep my denchers in. WHY? It’s nothing to do with Judi Dench, or a basement filled with her illegitimate children that she likes to call her “Denchers” in a vain attempt to pretend that she hasn’t enslaved her own offspring and forced them into a life of low-in-Vitamin-A, high-in-sexual-abuse drudgery, and in fact has a team of pallid, flaky, unwashed lodgers living down there because they are afraid of dragons, which are a scourge of the area surrounding the Dench household (a 4.3km radius) – in case you were wondering. (She hasn’t done that, I don’t think).

NO! It’s because in just 3 sensual weeks, on Wednesday 14th December, we will be gracing the stage of 93 Feet East on Brick Lane once again to make your ears dribble happy love dribblings. Gosh darn it, you are SO FREAKING LUCKY.

Here’s some stuff about it and things so that you can tell some friends and their pets and their naked friends. NOW GO AND CLEAN YOURSELF OFF.

Jinkies.

Here’s some INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHUFFING GIG. Love eggs xxxx

Spin Off OUT NOW!

Luke Fussell — Mon, 16 May 2011 19:19:53 +0000

Those lovely, if slightly tardy, people at iTunes have finally seen fit to release our single. Czech yourselves before you wreck yourselves by downloading HERE!

I am happy about this.

Hot chips.

Go away now please. You have downloading to do. GO ON!

Interview on Banana Peel Radio

Luke Fussell — Mon, 02 May 2011 19:55:30 +0000

Want to hear me waffling on Canadian radio? I thought so. Well now you can!

On Saturday night I spoke to Jeffrey Rubin from Banana Peel Radio. He is a lovely chap and didn’t even call me a knob or anything. Check it out by clicking on THIS DELICIOUS LINK.

I am too embarassed to listen to it (I’m a shy one, as you know), so please let me know how it went using a carrier pigeon as usual (not a career pigeon – they are too expensive). Check out my the ident I did for them too…

TIDY

All good things…

Luke Fussell — Mon, 25 Apr 2011 09:50:37 +0000

Well, it’s the 25th April and Spin Off is yet to hit the streets. I hadn’t factored being in a yurt in Cornwall into the release schedule it would seem – I can only apologise.

The Rt Hon DJ Fresh:Mesh assures me his super ultra mega remix will be with me very soon and once I return to civilisation (aka smog/noise) I shall get busy with the iTunes, I CHUFFING PROMISE.

In short: Spin Off out next week!

Right, I’m going before my phone reception disappears…

Big love eggs to you all!

Easter Playboy Bunnies For All!

Luke Fussell — Sat, 23 Apr 2011 09:36:58 +0000

Holy spirit! It’s Easter, Batman! It’s almost time for you to gorge yourself silly on gigantic chocolate ova. This is of course in NO WAY a pagan ritual, luckily, so no need to worry. Before you chow down though, you might like to do a wee bit of exercise… in the form of DANCING, and we can help you with that.

As an Easter gift we’ve remixed “Boys and Girls Come Out to Play” by our good friends Glass Diamond and we’re going you a sneaky sneak preview!

Czech it out here…
Boys and Girls Come Out to Play (Re-wired by Neon Highwire) by NeonHighwire

Happy Easter, happy streaming and happy dancing! Download details to come soon…

Is it art or is it porn? Oh, it’s art. Never mind.

Luke Fussell — Mon, 11 Apr 2011 21:57:31 +0000

Holy rusty trombones Batman! If you’re like me and like to throw courgettes into your bed and then attempt to charge Brian Sewell $17 million to give it a sniff then you’ll probably like this. You won’t admit it, because emotion is SO fucking 2008, yeah, but you’ll like it. It’s not gold plated pork pies, but it’s still pretty good.

It’s time to get excited because 2 weeks today sees the release of our first track since ‘Bear at the Bus Stop‘. It’s called SPIN OFF and it’s even better than one of Michael Barrymore’s pool parties (yes – really!) – just you wait and see! Well, wait you’ll have to, but here’s a wee sneaky peaky at what the critics are calling “the artwork”, much in the same way that Elle Macpherson was called “the body”…

: Neon Highwire Single “Spin Off” out on iTunes on 25th April

As if that wasn’t enough, then there’s going to be an exclusive remix from DJ Fresh:Mesh to dissolve your face into the past, freeze it and then serve it to your future children as a primitive tarka dal. Yes, it’s going to be like xmas 1986, except that you get that Optimus Prime you were after and also a ferret called Charles to go with it.

25TH APRIL

GO TO ITUNES

Buy please so we can eat. Thanks you sexual robot shark mutants – I love your balls/boobs (delete as appropriate).

Gig of the Day on Amazing Radio

Luke Fussell — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 13:01:36 +0000

Tomorrow night’s gig at Vibe Bar on Brick Lane is to be the featured “gig of the day” on Amazing Radio tomorrow! Make sure you tune in on your DAB tomorrow or click here at 1pm to hear one of our tracks and some info about the gig.
If you’re one of those people who has a job, why not use the Rewind function on the site to find out what you missed.

Tomorrow night’s gig will be our last for a while as we are retreating to a fall-out bunker in the former Soviet Union for a few months to fashion some new tunes out of naught but turnips and Communist rhetoric. It’s going to be big, so make sure you head down. It’s bloody free entry! What else are you gonna do for free, eh?!

Peas out.

Choons of the Year Part IV – The Revenge of Le Fuss

Luke Fussell — Sat, 18 Dec 2010 13:00:54 +0000

BOOM! Crimminy wah wah! How could I beat that list?! I don’t think it’s possible. Best plough on regardless, in spite of having been shamed into insignificance by Bieber and his wank-biscuits.

So, you’ve seen the ultimo A-list of tracks, now it’s album o’clock. I found this a bit tougher, as there’ve been a lot of choice EPs to listen to this year (Gallops, Three Trapped Tigers, Les Petits Pilous, etc. etc.), but I got there eventually. Here goes…

Crystal Castles – Crystal Castles II

Chromeo – Business Casual

Pulled Apart By Horses – Pulled Apart By Horses

65DaysOfStatic – We Were Exploding Anyway

Noisia – Split the Atom

Nedry – Condors

Errors – Come Down with Me

Four Tet – There Is Love In You

Foals – Total Life Forever

Two Door Cinema Club – Tourist History

BOOM! Who would’ve thought that Susan Boyle didn’t make it in there? Maybe next year big Suzy – keep on truckin’.

Merry Christmas everyone! I’m off to dress up as a mountie in diamonte jeggings for the remainder of the weekend. Why not? Exactly.

Choons of the Year – Part 1

Luke Fussell — Wed, 15 Dec 2010 20:34:30 +0000

Well, in case you are massively retarded and haven’t noticed, it’s nearly the end of the year. OMFG! Really?! Yes. Deal with it.

Let’s face it. We are interesting people. Damn it, we’re important people! Our opinions matter to literally handfuls of people and we want to share those opinions with you, because it’s the end of the year. THAT’S A REAL REASON. YOU DON’T KNOW! YOU WATCHED RAIN MAN AND THOUGHT IT WAS A COMEDY ABOUT PEOPLE WHO CAN’T TALK PROPERLY.

Anyway, in the spirit of dragging things out for way longer than is arguably necessary, over the next 6 days we will be bringing you our individual Top 10 tracks and albums of 2010. I have the best list so am going first. Putting Steve’s list up would ensure nobody ever came back to this site ever again in disgust. Today it’s the turn of my fave TRACKS. I’ve even put Spotify links in there for you, so you know what the tits I’m harping on about. Here goes (in no particular order)…

Fake Blood – I think I like it

Les Petits Pilous – Goog

Gallops – Miami Spider

Three Trapped Tigers – 11

Noisia – Red Heat

Chromeo – Night By Night

Errors – A rumour in Africa

Foals – Spanish Sahara

Boys Noize & Errol Alkan – Lemonade

Djedjotronic – Gum Attack

That’s it! What an amazing list, huh? Yep, it’s time to crack out those festive jeggings and get bouncing!
Wow, I’m good. More tomorrow, you lucky people…

Neon Highwire in the Playground with Bears

Luke Fussell — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 10:57:44 +0000

OMFG! We are playing at the Playground in just over 2 weeks! I can’t bloody believe it, CAN YOU? I hope you’ve got your tickets and dancing mullets at the ready. Not convinced? Ask these bears…
