WLPZ Exotica Cool Strange and Unusual Music 07-23-2019

The Exotica – Cool Strange and Unusual FaceBook page has a diverse mix fans, musicians and mixers indulging in a lot of passion projects.

This mix was compiled and produced by Gareth Jones (Bristol, UK) who hosts a monthly show on the John Peel-inspired online station Dandelion Radio.

“In a galaxy far, far away, comes a 2-hour mix to mark the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing. Hear crazy cover versions of classic space songs, obscure rock 'n' roll songs about rockets, moon songs from artists as diverse as The B-52's and Ernie from Sesame Street, plus snippets of speech from kid's spoken word sci-fi records and TV shows. You'll be over the moon when you hear it!”

“Includes crazy cover versions of classic space songs like 'Fly Me To The Moon' (Groove Armada), 'Space Oddity' (John Otway) and even a reggae version of '2001: A Space Odyssey' (Bang Matu & Orquesta Kingston).. “
