        DJ Food - Raiding the 20th Century - Words & Music Expansion
(starring Paul Morley and a cast of thousands), 70mb


1. Raiding the 20th Century


'Everything Has To End...'

"On January 18th 2004, Strictly Kev premiered the original 'Raiding The 
20th Century' on XFM's 'The Remix' show in London. It was a 40 minute 
attempt to catalogue the history of cut up music - be it avant garde 
tape manipulation, turntable megamixes or bastard pop mash ups. It 
rapidly spread throughout the web and managed to cause a full scale 
server crash on boomselection.info when they hosted it due to the 
volume of net traffic.

Shortly afterwards he read Paul Morley's recently published book 'Words 
& Music' and was amazed that certain chapters mirrored parts of his 
mix. Apart from the fact that the title, 'Raiding the 20th Century' was 
coined by Morley 20 years before for a future Art of Noise project, he 
also featured Alvin Lucier, who - purely by chance - was sampled on the 
opening track of the mix.

Kev decided to expand his idea to make the defnitive document on cut up 
music including many other parts, omitted by the constraints of the 
original radio session. After months of further research he tracked 
Morley down and they recorded passages from 'Words & Music' specially 
for this mix in an attempt tomarry the two and finish something that 
neither of them actually started. A year to the day of the original 
airing, the newly expanded version is ready."

"But if the cause be not good, the king himself hath a heavy reckoning 
to make, when all those legs and arms and heads, chopped off in battle, 
shall join together at the latter day and cry all 'We died at such a 
place;' some swearing, some crying for a surgeon, some upon their wives 
left poor behind them, some upon the debts they owe, some upon their 
children rawly left. I am afeard there are few die well that die in a 
battle; for how can they charitably dispose of any thing, when blood is 
their argument?" - William Shakespeare, Henry V: Act 4
