press release - If Assholes Could Fly This Place Would be an Airport
As a sneaky treat for discerning individuals with a penchant for jiggy music with a hefty twist, Dan ‘Manitoba’ Snaith has recorded this follow-up to his 2-Step mash-up ‘Give’r’ EP of 2001.
Not to be confused with anything on his blissed out forthcoming album Up In Flames, this one-off, strictly limited edition 12” carries the resplendent title ‘If Assholes Could Fly This Place Would Be An Airport’. The Leaf Label are pressing just 1500 copies for the entire universe, so make the most of this opportunity - you won’t get another one!
‘Assholes...’ derives from the bumpin’ laptop‘n’decks live set Manitoba has been peddling on five continents this last year or so. So in a way, this release bids farewell to those days, as a new Manitoba band – a trio, in fact, will be gracing a stage near you very soon.
Manitoba’s remixing exploits on Seelenluft’s classic 2002 single ‘Manila’ turned plenty of heads. Mr Scruff’s in fact, who asked him to remix his single ‘Sweetsmoke’ – twice!
Manitoba’s second album Up In Flames will be released at the end of March 2003, preceeded by the single ‘Jacknuggeted’ on February 28. The tracks on ‘Assholes...’ will never be seen again in any other format and will not be included on the album. Got it?
