Quiet Mouth

“In the end, it’s more about what is done with the sample than what was originally sampled.” So says the press release for electronic/experimental duo Oh Astro’s latest release Champions of Wonder. This is indeed the case with track 10, “Quiet Mouth,” in which they slice and dice Sufjan’s “John Wayne Gacy, Jr.” in a completely unique way. File this one under: most unrecognizable cover/remix ever. Not that that’s a bad thing.

The album is streaming on the Champions of Wonder ecard so have a listen and judge for yourself. You will undoubtedly need a cheat sheet while listening to the rest of the songs so head over to Oh Astro’s myspace blog for a complete list of samples used on the release.
