Where do you get all of this from?! Excellent stuff. I'm guessing these are library music discs like the Extreme Music ones - any idea how we could get ahold of these tracks otherwise? Interesting to see another Will White track there, I have been informed he's done a fair bit of work with them.

There seem to be clips of them here... Think they may be known tracks with different titles (can't listen for fear of waking the kids right now)

Night: http://www.unippm.co.uk/#/browse/browse ... dCDId=5876" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Locals Only and Rituals And You are Yage tracks. Where in the Hedges is nice acoustic stuff, reminds me a tiny bit of Environments 4 clips actually.

Day: http://www.unippm.co.uk/#/browse/browse ... dCDId=5874" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Good Morning Islands is Mr. Sponge's Groovy Oscillations.


So, only one unheard track then.

I initially thought they were library music because they're listed as promo, have 30 second clips at the end, and are credited to the composer names. I think Dell's links confirm it though!

Monsterism is a project by Pete Fowler, who animated the pilot episode of - and designed the website for - The Mello Hippo Disco Show, and designed the cuddly toy hippos to go with it. Brian mixed the Sounds from Monsterism Island compilation, and they are due to/are/have soundtracked the cartoon series Monsterism Island by Pete Fowler, although what's become of that I don't know. Some of that soundtrack has appeared on the EBS mixes.

So...

"Locals Only" is "The Yage Letters"
"Rituals and You" is "The Hunters Moon"
"Where In The Hedges"is new... Wonder what that will turn up on, if anything? Another Yage album?

I guess including Mr. Sponge's Groovy Oscillations makes a certain amount of sense. It did turn up on the second Monsterism album, "A Psychedelic Guide To Monsterism Island".

I see on FSOLDigital they're now sold out of the Monstrous Bubble Third Ear album. Wonder if there'll be any more - the link to the Monstrous Bubble section is still there, just empty now. The long promised FSOL volume of it wouldn't go amiss eh?

The last thing we heard about that was from Rich at Platypus 'waiting for the final tracklist from Brian' - summer 2008. I don't advise holding your breath!

I refer you to that Noel Gallagher quote on schedules:
