This is my first post. I’m not trying to be all “big deal” about it, so keep your pants on. I thought I’d start things off with something chill and vaguely topical (at least circa this summer or something).
Scientist has been near and dear to me for a while. As a huge fan of 70s and 80s dub and King Tubby, it’s natural that I’d love this dub architect and a protege of the King (the Jamaican one, not the Graceland one). After working in Tubby’s studio, Scientist tried his hand at mixing and during the early 80s produced a series of fabulous (and totally weird) albums all themed around the artist’s fictional, super hero accomplishments. This song, “Your Teeth in My Neck” is from the 1981 album Scientist Rid the World of the Curse of the Evil Vampires. So for all you people jumping on the Twilight, Vampire Diaries, True Blood bandwagon, here’s the soundtrack for your trendy obsession. As a die hard Buffy fan since ‘97, Scientist and I were into the Vamps long before it was cool, ‘nuff said.
