our good friend and one of the best bootleggers ewwa retired from mashups
he won’t make his golden jams anymore, but he will make new music
not mashups tho
here are the words of the man himself:

- New decade, new start. It’s with a skip in my step and a happy heart that I bid team9 farewell. Much fun has been had in the last few years but its time to start again with a new venture. Many thanks to all those who have supported and helped team9 along the way, most notably Party Ben, World Famous Audio Hacker, Eddy Temple Morris, McSleazy and GYBO, The Stereogum crew, Triple J, Copycat, Simon Iddol and Audioporn, Solcofn. So many more but I’d be here all day…..

U2 have had a street in New York temporarily renamed in their honour in recognition of their musical achievements. U2WAY , the stretch between Broadway and 8th Avenue will remain Rawk’n'Roll-ified for one week.
Er Bono, now the streets have a name…

RQM – BLOODY SUNDAY (ROBOT KOCH VERSION)
[mp3 Fairtilizer]

Bloody Sunday is an unauthorized version of the U2 classic. RQM wrote it for Fritz Radio Berlin – their Sunday show. They were invited to do a live session with Robot back in the The Tape vs RQM days, and like all other guests asked to do a cover of Bloody Sunday. The cover turned into its own song organically. On a musical tip it builds on the Glitch foundation but pushes into the Pop realm at least some and tastefully. Lyrically it's their tribute to that toxic Rock N Roll type of relationship that swings on the extremes and burns out quick.

Bloody Sunday – Bad liver/She on a runway – didn't see her till Monday/Both loving the High ways the High life the High rise – Never Mind the price/We in Nirvana -Sugar and Spice Girl give me your Drama/Smash the cellie – Now Baby holler/Inhale me like a snowflake through a Dollar/Crisp Bills – Cris. spills/Girl you take the edge off this Evil/Girl I need You – So bring over your Sugar I'm uh lead you into my High life/We'll look out my High rise with Blood-shot eyes and see the Sun rise/It'll be beautiful Really – Lost souls Addicted to each other – getting High off of this Bad Love Chemistry

[ LEFT= Richard Chartier & Taylor Deupree / RIGHT = U2 ]

If the cover art for the new U2 album, No Line On The Horizon
seems somewhat familiar, that's maybe because it looks like
Richard Chartier & Taylor Deupree's “specification.fifteen”
which came out a couple of years ago.
Both  feature a photograph by Japanese photographer Hiroshi Sugimoto.

As the saying goes…
"Good artist's copy but Great artists steal"…
