PG Remix Competition

[jOHN rODRIGUEZ]

Over at http://www.petergabriel.com/ there news of a "Shock the Monkey" remix comp open to all. An amazing site in itself, suggested viewing if you haven't already.

Gabriel's always been one of the greatest supporters of artistic flourishment, who knows, this may be YOUR big break.

FIY: to view the competition you'll need to sign up to the full moon club, no fee, much like signing up here @dirty.org.

Thanks for this! Yes, the site and the RealWorld label in general is an excellent effort at giving truly cutting-edge world-beat artists international exposure.

About Peter Gabriel: i've been a fan of his since his days in Genesis in the 70's. But since he took ten years to make his last album, i kinda wondered about his relevance nowadays. But, having just watched the DVD for his last concert tour "Growing up: live", i'm reconvinced.
Those that dig UW's visual aspects will probably enjoy Gabriel's excellent stage production. Cool revolving stage and lighting, choreagraphy (inc. a bit where Gabriel and his daughter walk on the ceiling, and he later sings from inside a huge bouncy ball!) Stunning!

Gonna try my remixing to Shock the Monkey to Life!

Really, he didn't take 10 years to produce some output. During the 10 year absence of a full fledged PG album he produced the show for MM dome in London with a supporting album for the show. Guests abound from BT to Goldfrapp and other Real World artists.

Also there was the soundtrack for the film A Long Walk Home, depressing yes, but still Gabriel. He's never been one to hold to the conventions established by the recording industry, hence why I respect him even further.

Don't even get me started on his humanitarian efforts.
