[00:00:22] Speaker A: I envision this as like an ABC Family type special where we. We greet the audience, but I guess it makes more sense because Fireside Chat. Yeah, like a Fireside Chat thing.

I like that. Okay, okay, here we go. [00:01:27] Speaker B: Hello. [00:01:28] Speaker A: Okay, Click. It's getting cold out there. Better put another. [00:01:37] Speaker B: Wow. Dude, come on. [00:01:39] Speaker A: Okay, here we go. Here we go. I literally had not a drop of alcohol. Not as. Not. Not as creature was stirring. Okay. [00:01:45] Speaker B: It's probably. Probably the problem. [00:01:49] Speaker A: Sure. It's getting cold out there. I'm gonna put another log on the fire. You wanna cue up those songs? Oh, I think we have some guests. [00:01:59] Speaker B: Hi. [00:02:00] Speaker A: Welcome to Sip and Mimos presents Seasoned Sippings. I'm Jake, and with me, as always, is Elliot. [00:02:08] Speaker B: Hi. Hey. [00:02:10] Speaker A: Welcome to our special holiday themed episode where Elliot and I are going to discuss some special songs that really mean a lot to us, especially during this. This time of the year. But before we get into that, Elliot, what's been new? [00:02:30] Speaker B: Oh, man, not too much. Oh, my goodness gracious. All I do is cut videos and listen to 90s music and see my kid. How are you, man? Have you talked about it last episode? You are now a married man. [00:02:44] Speaker A: I am a married man. And I. I gotta say, it feels pretty damn good. [00:02:50] Speaker B: Wow. [00:02:51] Speaker A: We. We were. We were just talking off mic and just kind of like recapping. Recapping the big night. A lot of dancing was had. [00:03:00] Speaker B: Yes. [00:03:01] Speaker A: Multiple times. I looked over and I saw Elliot, who was one of my groomsmen, of course. Just. Just kind of like Vibing out. I feel like, you know, wearing tuxedos. We were all in tuxedos. I feel like as the night goes on, as you dance more and more, it gets hotter and hotter because those things don't breathe very well. Not once I look over at you. And you were spiffy the entire time. [00:03:26] Speaker B: I tried to stay, I stayed spiffy. Yeah. Yeah. Jake's wedding, listeners. And we've got a bunch of new ones, I think, Jake, your wedding was romantic and beautiful, and what an honor to be part of it. What a great. What a great, great honor. It was, truly. And I had such a great time, and I think everyone else did. Guys, listeners, the. The ceremony was quite short, but then Jake drops this tune. He drops this. He pulls the guitar out of his ass and just starts playing this song. [00:04:03] Speaker A: I never leave home without it. [00:04:05] Speaker B: It's always up his ass. And he sang that song, and it brought the goddamn house down. Dude, that was amazing. [00:04:16] Speaker A: Thank you, man. I wrote that. I started writing it pretty much around the time we got engaged. So May of 21. I knew what I wanted to say, but was having trouble putting it down. And one day I was on lunch, and it just kind of. Just kind of came to me, and I was just like, oh, man. Like, it was kind of like the wedding singer when he's like, do you have a pen? I just got a great idea for a song. [00:04:47] Speaker B: Wow. [00:04:47] Speaker A: And it just. It just kind of really came easy after months and months and months of, oh, crap, is this actually going to happen? Yeah. I'm so happy you enjoyed it. And it was a real, real special night. [00:05:03] Speaker B: And I was sitting. I was sitting or standing. Sorry. Next to, like, the. The, you know, caterers and. And wedding planners and stuff like that. And they were watching it in awe in this little hallway. Yes. And I turned to them, like, he does this with ease. Like, this is, like. This is how. How easily charming Jake is. They were just kind of. They were kind of blown away, man. And really? Yeah, they were like, I've never seen anything like this at a. What. They do this for a profession? I'm like, yeah, my boy. My boy here. My boy. Jake comes correct now. Now bring me another whiskey. You know, like, I had a lot of Jake juice that night. [00:05:49] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. So my signature cocktail was Jake juice, so. And apparently you can. You can order it with extra Jake, which was an extra shot. I didn't know this. [00:05:59] Speaker B: I didn't know that either. What the. Oh, that would have tasted my night up. That would have. Okay. That would have Changed my nut up a bit. If I had double Jake Juice. I was rocking Jake Juice, folks. He should probably explain, like, so, like, the bartender at Jake's wedding, which was glorious and beautiful and. And magical, and I. And I was part of it. I feel so honored. The happy hour had a menu of, like, a Jake cocktail and his lovely wife's cocktail. And. And what was your drink? [00:06:35] Speaker A: My. So it was essentially just like a margarita, but one. You know, one of the many reasons I. I married my wife is we were thinking of, like, funny names for him. And I said, hey, can I name my drink Jake Juice? And she said, go for it. And I said, okay. [00:06:55] Speaker B: Jake, how's married life been for you so far? [00:06:58] Speaker A: It's been a real pleasure. I saw this great quote today, and I. And I normally, I'd love to give credit where credit's due. I think it may have been like a tweet or something, people. It really rang true. Someone says, like, what's so special about. About your wife or your girlfriend? And then the person said, nothing special without her, you know, which. That really hit. Really hit home big for me because every day, I mean, it's. We're almost a month since. Since we made it a fish. Every day I get to spend that woman's husband and partner. It's just better than the last. And I'm. I'm really, really grateful. I'm. I know I said it last year. Your end episode and rings even more true this year. I am and the luckiest guy I know for. For many, many reasons. And it's good to be Jake Drumgoal right now. [00:07:51] Speaker B: Wow. Wow, I love that. Yeah, it is good to be Jake. [00:07:56] Speaker A: And of course, thank you for. For being a part of everything and for, oh, my God, rocking out and dancing and making everyone feel welcome and making everyone have a. You know, making sure everyone is comfortable having a blast doing what you do best. Drinking the Jake juice. [00:08:13] Speaker B: Drinking the Jake juice. I'm like, I was just down in the happy hour. Like, I think we're in a cult now. Like, to everyone, to your grandma. I'm just joking. I can't wait for the asteroid to show up tonight, you know? [00:08:29] Speaker A: Did everyone else have tracksuits that they're changing into? Like, what? [00:08:32] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, you had. You had your guy, who was that guitar player who played Jumper. [00:08:38] Speaker A: So that was. [00:08:39] Speaker B: Give him a shout out because that was great. [00:08:41] Speaker A: He's. He's a local guy. [00:08:44] Speaker B: He was pretty great, man. And I remember, like, hearing that and, like, come up behind you and, like, Tapping on my shoulder, I'm like, oh, my God. [00:08:50] Speaker A: So, yeah, so our DJ was. His name is Josh Klaus. He's a local Austin singer, songwriter, and dj. Check him out. He's a profoundly gifted musician. [00:09:04] Speaker B: Wait, the guitar player was the dj? [00:09:07] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:09:09] Speaker B: Okay, now. Now I'm upset. [00:09:12] Speaker A: Okay. [00:09:13] Speaker B: I didn't realize that when I was there at the night, like, with the guy was, like, playing guitar downstairs, moved upstairs and DJ'd. Yeah. All right. And he was like, a really handsome too, right? [00:09:27] Speaker A: Like. Like, unlike. It's unfair. Like, just very handsome guy. [00:09:31] Speaker B: Dude. Okay, that guy. Pick one thing. Now I'm mad. Jake's wedding was. You can't be able to DJ that well and play guitar that well. And like, come on. Stop it. [00:09:49] Speaker A: Yeah. If you're. You're on the Internet, check out Josh Clouse. If you're in the Austin area, check him out. He's. [00:09:55] Speaker B: Yes, check him out. Yeah, it was great. It was great. [00:09:57] Speaker A: Shout out, Josh. [00:09:59] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. TR. [00:10:01] Speaker A: So a. After the wedding, Elliot sent a. A text message to our groomsman group chat and asked, where's everyone after partying? [00:10:11] Speaker B: And that's right. [00:10:12] Speaker A: And there was Elliot in his tux and look like a. Like a underground club. Where did you go, my friend? [00:10:20] Speaker B: You know, the. The. You know, the wedding died down and I'm like, okay, everyone's. Everyone's kind of bouncing. And I'm like, well, I'm in this talks. I've only got it for 48 hours. I'm gonna. I'm gonna go up. So. Because I'm like, I'm in a talks and I'm feeling good. And I just saw my boy got get married. So my friend Tina ties to me. Like, I am at a ABBA DJ party. [00:10:48] Speaker A: Oh, my God. [00:10:49] Speaker B: Come out. And I'm like, for real? She's like, yep, but, but, but. So I just go there because I'm looking spicy and I roll out there and then, holy hell, it's ABBA tunes, ABBA jams, and like this disco, disco, disco. People are in, like, butterfly costumes. I was not the weirdly dressed person there. I. I was just like a big old norm core dork. The bar adjacent had, like, this cool drum and bass. Tj. I rolled in there. I was like, this is dope. Oh, my God, I love drum bass. And like, this guy was playing music. And then, like, I always, like, wander out and wander into the party, which was like, you know, like, share and like, like disco stuff. And I was having a good old time. And I was like, well, this is a great Way to honor Jake's day. Oh, I just love it just by raging. Yeah. [00:11:41] Speaker A: So were they, were they incorporating like, like really like German German like breaks into like the ABBA songs or are they just like straight, straight Alba? [00:11:54] Speaker B: So on the main stage was this dude that like plays ABBA tunes and it's like this is an ABBA party, so he's gonna play all the ABBA hits but also incorporate, you know, I. You would imagine a lot of adjacent stuff like Bee Gees, like your, your Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. Alum. And so there was a lot of that, like, like remix of them. Remixes of them. A lot of share, you know, stuff like that. Like, like, but like people are dancing their asses off Madonna, you know, like that everyone's dressed up to the nines and like it's like having a great old time. So. Yeah. And then all my friends were like, we're gonna keep, keep it going. It's like 1:30. We're gonna keep going. We're gonna go to, you know, Barbarella dope spot. If you're, if you're 17 and live in downtown. Awesome. Otherwise it's a nightmare. I don't wait in line for. That's my thing now. I'm 40. I don't in line for anything. [00:12:56] Speaker A: Like what if it's something that like you have a ticket to and you just get there early? [00:13:02] Speaker B: Well, if I get a, if I have a ticket and like get there early, then why would I be waiting in anything? [00:13:07] Speaker A: That's true. Because if it's like a movie, you have a reserved seat. [00:13:10] Speaker B: What are we doing? [00:13:14] Speaker A: That's true. [00:13:15] Speaker B: I paid ahead to see, to see Rage against the Machine. And I want a mezzanine table with a glass of wine and edamame. [00:13:25] Speaker A: Oh, edamame. While watching Rage against the Machine. Man, that, that's heaven right there. Oh, they're playing Killing in the name of Pass the Charcuterie. You know. [00:13:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:13:36] Speaker A: I would be very happy we're here tonight in the Sipping Mimo studio. [00:13:44] Speaker B: Oh, welcome to, welcome to Sipping Mimos. [00:13:46] Speaker A: Oh yeah, welcome. This is the Internet's premier oftentimes citrus based libation podcast or Elliot. Throughout the year, Elliot and I discuss various albums from the 90s rock and 90s electronica genres. And as the years winding down, you know, we like to do a special, special episode where, you know, it's a season of giving. And so Elliot and I, we're doing a special episode tonight where we are gifting each other a song that means a lot to each of us. [00:14:26] Speaker B: Every Once in a while, we like to. During this gift giving holiday, we like to concentrate like instead of. Because we're album guys. I mean, we give each other albums and then instead of albums, we concentrate and we go, here's a tune, here's a tune, here's a track. You know, like, I think it means a lot to me and might mean a lot to you, and I'm gifting this to you. [00:14:51] Speaker A: Exactly. And last year we had a lot of fun. We did a Thanksgiving at Thanks Sippings episode sipsgiving. We did Jumper by Third Eye Blind and no angel by. It's a three name. [00:15:09] Speaker B: Oh my God. Dude, it was at the top of your list. [00:15:14] Speaker A: It's no. It's no angel. [00:15:17] Speaker B: I'm not gonna help you. [00:15:19] Speaker A: It's not Dave Van Ronk. [00:15:20] Speaker B: I'm not gonna. Wow. I'm not gonna help you at all. I'm just gonna leave you. Don't look it up. Don't look it up. You're looking it up. He's clearly. Look, guys, he's clearly looking it up. Foreign angel by Paul Van Dyke. [00:15:35] Speaker A: Or an angel wouldn't leave me out to dry with the wrong name. [00:15:39] Speaker B: Dude, you were googling it. [00:15:42] Speaker A: And so this year. Let me, let me reach into my, my bag right now. We, you know, we were talking earlier about a lot of joyous occasions, you know, a lot of celebrations. And so my song tonight is kind of the exact opposite of all of that, especially in the title itself. So my gift to my partner Elliot is kind of kind of rockabilly, kind of pop punk, and just 100% Radio Rock. So I'm gifting Litz miserable. You make me come, you make me complete. You make me completely miserable. Stuck to a chair watching this story about me. Everything goes by so fast making my head. [00:17:02] Speaker B: You gave me Litz. Beautiful track. Miserable. Scandalous vocals. [00:17:09] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:17:10] Speaker B: Do you. Well, the, the, the. The. You make me calm of it all. [00:17:16] Speaker A: Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, I think. [00:17:21] Speaker B: Oh, it's. Oh, it's. It's winky as. But like, but like I. That I do enjoy the humor of it. [00:17:27] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. Did you watch the music video? [00:17:30] Speaker B: I sure did. [00:17:32] Speaker A: So when you get. And you. When you. You sing along, it's like, oh, okay, I gotcha. I got. I. I got you. AJ Pop off. So. [00:17:40] Speaker B: So we're. We're going to dive deep in all these references that I don't get. [00:17:45] Speaker A: Okay. So lit. I first heard this song. [00:17:50] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:51] Speaker A: 99. Which is when that. When the album it's on dropped. A lot of folks might be maybe More familiar with the other song on this album. My. My Worst Enemy. Yes, that. That one. Certified Banger. [00:18:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:18:06] Speaker A: I won't argue, but Miserable. Really connected with me in. In a lot of ways. I can remember so vividly remember recording it off of the radio. Kind of just kind of like I did with Jumper. Learning to play this on guitar. It's one of the first songs. I think I really sat down and really tried to learn all the different nuances. Like it starts off with this great. I think it's. It's a. It's a D chord and the, the guitarist. [00:18:39] Speaker B: I was gonna ask you about the guitarist because that. So flow. Oh, man, forget it. I'm sure we'll get there. [00:18:45] Speaker A: So it's Jeremy Popoff and eight AJ pop off. And I hope I'm pronouncing it correctly. I apologize if I'm not. They're the singer and guitarist of lit. So. So Jeremy's playing this like D chord and if you listen to it. [00:19:00] Speaker B: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Are they related? [00:19:02] Speaker A: Yes. They're brothers. [00:19:04] Speaker B: Are you serious? [00:19:05] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:19:06] Speaker B: I did not know this. [00:19:08] Speaker A: Yeah, they're. They're. They're brothers. And I think primary songwriters, if I'm not mistaken. It's. It's something so silly, but I think that's what, that's what great art is when it's something small but it just grabs you. He does this. He hits the note and he's playing it and he slides. He slides the octave with his pinky so he goes down. And I remember hearing that for the first time and having my like my 11 year old mind blown. I was like, how did he do that? It sounds like there's two guitars playing it. [00:19:43] Speaker B: It look, it looked. And I've seen, I've watched it live. Looks like he's pulling up face point up, like vertically on this, on the. On the frets. Am I wrong? [00:19:55] Speaker A: Yeah, it's a really funky technique. And it's like the. So the opening is like. It's like a light distortion more on the clean side and then the verses come in. It's just like. It's like jarring. It's like he's hitting like a, like a, like a minor note on there or a seventh note, but it's just like. It kind of comes out of nowhere. But I, I think it just. It just adds so much texture to the song. And, and when I was learning this one as a kid, I never could nail that part. I would, I would try and get it. I could not get it to sound just like the album which always bummed me out. [00:20:30] Speaker B: Were you playing down? [00:20:33] Speaker A: Maybe that was it. [00:20:34] Speaker B: I think that might be it, dude. Because I, I noticed that and like it for me as a non guitar player like he lifts. He lifts it up like that to me feels like oh, he's playing on the. And do you know what I mean? Like on the 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and like oh is this off. Off note like like and then like oh then the vocals and the drums come in like oh the kick hits on the one and so does the pull up on the guitar. This is very interesting to me which I don't think is usual but you have to correct me if I'm wrong. [00:21:11] Speaker A: That might be it because it, it, it. It is a very distinct sounding guitar line from there it goes into like a pre chorus and when he sings all of the things and then first time I'd ever heard anything like that. It cuts back into the chorus. But the chorus they've got those. The band in the background they're doing yeah yeah which oh yeah. [00:21:36] Speaker B: I've always loved like the idea of like we're like we're. I think it was already a head thing like where they're like oh like the. Yeah yeah. I like the like when Tom's not singing and who's the guy that sings in Radiohead? The bass player or whatever. [00:21:51] Speaker A: Like oh, not Johnny Greenwood. [00:21:54] Speaker B: No, it's not Greenwood. It's. It's the other guy. But. But anyways it's. It's the chorus, it's the audience singing back like like the. Everyone's singing back to you and like so this song has like 110% like call call and response possibilities. You are. You are now participant in this song. You are now part of it which is very cool. [00:22:18] Speaker A: I. That that was one of my favorite things about. Because about this song it was just so catchy. I don't know. And it was so easy to sing along to as a kid. I've kind of been just like hypnotized by the song for over 20 years. 100%. [00:22:35] Speaker B: Why this one more than my own worst Enemy? [00:22:39] Speaker A: That's a great question. [00:22:40] Speaker B: It's a pretty fucking concise jam. I'm curious why you like this one better. [00:22:48] Speaker A: In my opinion. I think it's the catchier of the two songs. Not taking, not taking anything away from enemy. Enemy is 100 certified banger and if you. We've. We've gone to 90s nights to watch you know, cover band play the. And it brings the house down every time. I. I think just as. As a young guitarist starting out and being really interested in like this, like the craft of songwriting and, you know, putting songs together. I think Miserable to me is the more interesting of the two songs. [00:23:27] Speaker B: Okay. [00:23:28] Speaker A: I think there's some really. I think Jeremy does some really interesting things on the guitar. Really, really cool and cat. Catchy things we haven't gotten to. But the guitar solo is one of my favorite. 90s guitar solo. I mean, might be sacrilegious, but like, I put it up there with just as catchy as like Kurt's guitar solo in Smells Like a Teen Spirit. You know, it's like endlessly. [00:23:52] Speaker B: Wow. [00:23:52] Speaker A: You can like, sing it, you know. [00:23:56] Speaker B: Is he like. Is. Is he going like. Is he hitting every. Every string? Or is like, like, like Spanish still guitar style? Or is it like an effect? [00:24:06] Speaker A: I think he's doing an effect. I think he's doing like some like, chorus, maybe like a wob pedal on there. [00:24:11] Speaker B: Okay. [00:24:12] Speaker A: He could also be doing like a tremo. Tremo type. Picking that real fast. Yeah, I love it. And the way it, like, he. He's. He's bending that. It's mixed really. If you like, go. If you go back and listen during like the. Like the big chorus when. During the. Yeah, yeah. He's like, yeah, still. [00:24:35] Speaker B: You make me come. [00:24:37] Speaker A: He's still plucking up on the guitars. You can. You can hear the, like the. The high. The high notes on the guitars. He's still. He's still strumming up. [00:24:47] Speaker B: My biggest note today was like, tell me about this guitar player. Cuz, like, holy. He's doing something interesting. [00:24:54] Speaker A: Really, really, like, really a lot. A lot of really cool nuances going on in this one. Like, I think this is honestly, like one of the first songs that really introduced me to playing to like, to bringing a guitar part back into the song. Like, so during the final chorus, he brings back in the. And then he does the. When he sends you make me complete. He drops that. On the final chorus. He drops that like half step or step. Yeah. I think, like, compared to Enemy, which is a hit, I think this one is the. The more interesting of the two. [00:25:34] Speaker B: Okay. [00:25:35] Speaker A: Ziploc is the other hit on. On A Place in the Sun. [00:25:39] Speaker B: Yeah. What's. What's. Which one's the block? [00:25:42] Speaker A: Ziploc is. I don't think it's as catchy as Miserable and an Enemy, but I kind of discovered that one late in life. And it's. It slaps. It's a. It's a fine Pop rock song. [00:25:54] Speaker B: All right. I gathered by watching some videos. These guys are pretty good live. [00:26:00] Speaker A: I've never seen them. Oh, man, they. [00:26:04] Speaker B: I, I watched a video of them as like the, you know, the dreaded way woodstock99. And like, damn, they sound fantastic, dude. [00:26:13] Speaker A: Oh, I know they played. [00:26:14] Speaker B: Oh man, like, they sound great. Like they're probably, probably playing, you know, 4pm before goes down or whatever. But like they sounded great like your, your boy, the guitar player or whatever. Like, like and ensure the lead singer, blah, blah, blah. But. And like, but they're all, they're all in tune and on time and like, just annihilating. Like, like they sound really, really good. [00:26:42] Speaker A: I need to look that up. I. They were actually in our neck of the woods a couple months ago with like Hoobastank. Remember Hoobastank? [00:26:51] Speaker B: I, I think I remember the name. [00:26:54] Speaker A: And, and I, you know, it was just way too, I was like a, it was a school night, it was way too far and I never, I didn't get to go. But I've kind of like been jamming Hooba Sank lately though. In all honesty, there's. They've got some pretty, pretty awesome. [00:27:09] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Are you going to throw some Hooba stink my way? [00:27:11] Speaker A: I don't, I don't know if they, if they make the cut for 90 for the 90s. [00:27:15] Speaker B: Oh boy. We can always bend those rules, baby. [00:27:18] Speaker A: Yeah, this is true. Miserable has always been a song that's been really special to me. It taught me a lot as a guitar player and yeah, to be able to talk about it today, it reminds me. I got my first Fender strat. It was February 2023. It was cold, it was a Friday. And I remember, I remember this, this thing would not stay in tune like the, it needed a lot of work done. But it was, it was my Strat. Like, it was like. And I remember the first song I played on. I put my headphones on. It was miserable because I, I wanted to jam that song on my new guitar and I hit one chord. It just went out of tune. But. Wow. But what a. What, what, what a chord. [00:28:09] Speaker B: What a chord. [00:28:11] Speaker A: Do you remember hearing this one on the radio at all back in the day? [00:28:14] Speaker B: I mean. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, this and my own worst enemy, for sure. Yeah. I remember lit being a thing. And like, I remember the outfits and the, and the, the hair gel, the chin strap beards. [00:28:30] Speaker A: And like, they've kind of got like a Guy Fieri like vibe going on. [00:28:36] Speaker B: I think, I think Guy Fieri Has Yeti has a lit vibe. I believe it's pronounced. Oh, I think it's ghee. Yeah. Well, we'll have to have him on the show and ask him what his favorite 90s albums are. Yeah, I could guess. If it's smash Mouth, I'm walking out the door because everyone makes that joke, right? Yeah. He looks like the guy from Smashbox. Well, we all. I also watched the music video for this track, right? With the. [00:29:10] Speaker A: Okay. [00:29:10] Speaker B: The lovely Pamela Anderson. [00:29:13] Speaker A: So Canadian 90s icon Pamela Anderson. [00:29:18] Speaker B: Is she Canadian? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. And she, like, swallows them whole and all this. The band members as they play the song. And I love the outfits. Like, the outfits. Oh, boy. The hair gel and, like, the square shirts. Like the bowling shirts thing, like, with the patterns down the. Down the. Each breast. I'm like, wow, that takes me back. [00:29:44] Speaker A: Like, braided beard that goes like a foot down, which. [00:29:48] Speaker B: Which he still seems to have. I was just digging that 90s vibe of it all. And, like, boy, Pamela Anderson has a type, huh? [00:29:57] Speaker A: Well, what's. What's really interesting, there was, like, a. And I say, I think. But only. I can only think of two things in the 90s where a huge, Like. Like. Like a. It's like a huge woman and, like, small. Like, small guys whom she. Like, whom they eat. So this music video where they're playing. They're playing on Pamela Anderson, like, for most of the. [00:30:22] Speaker B: They are. They are. They're playing on her butt. Yeah, yeah. [00:30:25] Speaker A: And on her height. [00:30:26] Speaker B: Her, like, still high heels. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just can't be comfortable. I just want her to be comfortable. Put Pamela Anderson in a hoodie and, like, PJ pants. And then I'm like. [00:30:39] Speaker A: Did you watch me watch back in the day? [00:30:41] Speaker B: No, No, I never did. No, not really. No. [00:30:44] Speaker A: And then the other one was in. Dude, where's my car? The. The hobby aliens, they turn into a huge. A huge, like, woman. And she eats, like, Hal Sparks, I think, or some. OR no, the O'Connell brothers. Jerry. [00:31:01] Speaker B: Yeah. The giant woman thing is an interesting, like, occurrence in, like, story and sci fi and, like, I think fetish. That seems to be. Is it interesting, though? I'm so curious about, like. Sorry. Not to derail the podcast completely. This is what the show is about now. It's a. But, like, like, sexual fetishes and, like, how they not, for lack of a better term, grow, but, like, like. And where did someone get way turned on by a giant woman? Or, like, you know, like, feet and stilettos. I'm like, all those things. Like, don't really hit me too hard. I'm like, ah, ah. Gentleman. Is she okay? Like, where's she gonna sit down and, like, sell it? I was like, are you all right? Do you need a hand? Like, there's steps to get downstairs and. But, like. Like, are you gonna stomp on Lit? You know, like, we won't. We won't have their next hit single. But the video for this song is very fetishy and, like, weird and. And Pamela Anderson, and they are playing on her body and then she eats them. [00:32:14] Speaker A: I never thought of it like that, but that is really interesting. [00:32:18] Speaker B: You know what I thought about? Like, what, That's a fetish? [00:32:21] Speaker A: Well, I. I never thought of it like that. [00:32:25] Speaker B: How. What. What did you not think about that? [00:32:28] Speaker A: The. The video is about, like. Or could be, like, interpreted as one's fetish. [00:32:36] Speaker B: It's absolutely. [00:32:39] Speaker A: I just thought it was like. I just. Okay. As a teenager, I just thought, like, oh, Pamela Anderson, awesome. You know, and Lit. [00:32:44] Speaker B: Yeah, Cool, cool, cool. It's like, you know, body worship and all this. And like, she was like, you know, the. The body of the time. Like, this is pinnacle of the most beautiful woman we could think of. And, like, I think wasn't like, the guy from lit like, hooking up with her. And I don't know. [00:33:02] Speaker A: One of the. One of the things is like, you know, their getups. It's like very like, 50s, kind of like. I don't want to say greaser, but. But kind of, you know. And what's really funny is they're from Orange county and another band, Social Distortion, also from Orange county and also famous for dressing like 50s greasers. So I'm just like, like, what is, like, Orange county culture that produces, like, these, like, really popular acts that, like, embrace that, like,'50s rockabilly, square shirts, shoes with flames on them, stuff like that. Like, I think that's really interesting too. [00:33:41] Speaker B: Is it. Is it like the Scar revival? Is it like the. Is it. Is it the. Why are they all wearing, like, bowling league shirts? You know, like these, like, rectangular, like, very unflattering. Well, like. [00:33:56] Speaker A: Well, the singer is rocking that, like, tank top. He looks good. And like, he's. [00:34:01] Speaker B: Yeah. Also I want to bring up like, the. The Lean singer is a fucking smoke show and, like, a snack. So, like, do you think they had, like, a little almost famous issue or like, hey, man, you're a little too good looking. And it's getting in front of my guitar playing because I'm like. Because clearly guitar player is badass. What's his guitar Player's name? [00:34:23] Speaker A: Jeremy. He's. He's a very handsome dude. [00:34:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:34:27] Speaker A: My gosh, that spiky hair. What a time to be alive. He kind of looks like the actor that played Dorian Gray on League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. [00:34:39] Speaker B: Such a deep cut. [00:34:41] Speaker A: Going back and. And revisiting revision this one for. For the holiday episode. It was. Was a lot of. And I listened to it a lot. Just really took me back, you know, almost. You know, 19, almost 20 years ago, which sounds bizarre now, and it still sounds just as good. It's kind of one of the songs. It's just. It's. It's a familiar. It's. It's something. I feel like something that everyone of a certain age has some type of memory of either hearing in the background or. And it's. It's. I feel like it's a good song to connect with people. [00:35:18] Speaker B: It's like a go to. [00:35:19] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:35:21] Speaker B: But why is this your second favorite song of all time? [00:35:24] Speaker A: Well, I don't know if it's my second favorite of all time. It's certainly in the top 10 just from what it taught me as a guitar player. [00:35:32] Speaker B: Interesting. You learned from this song. [00:35:34] Speaker A: I learned from this song, yeah. And yeah, I think it's safe to say that, like, I maybe subconsciously pull from miserable every time I work on a song. You know, like anytime I think of, like writing a pre chorus, you know. You know, there was a. There was a while there where like, pre choruses were everything, you know? Like now I would say probably not so much, but this song is just like rotten with pre choruses. [00:35:59] Speaker B: The pre choruses are next level. Like, the structure of this song is off the hook. Truly great. [00:36:06] Speaker A: And I think it was one of the first songs where the guitarist used feedback as an instrument. If you listen to that second verse and he says, give up all. He's hitting them. He's using feedback, which I thought was like, really cool. And we tried to, like, emulate out. [00:36:22] Speaker B: Yeah. Awesome. [00:36:24] Speaker A: Yeah. So this one, I'm really grateful for this one. It taught me a lot and still does. Really fun. [00:36:33] Speaker B: Over the past few years to the. [00:36:35] Speaker A: Traditional sounds of an English summer willow. [00:36:40] Speaker B: Has been honored a new normal. [00:36:43] Speaker A: What were the skies like when you were young? [00:36:46] Speaker C: They went on forever. That when I. We lived in Arizona and the skies always had little fluffy clouds in them and they were long and clear. There were lots of stars at night and when it would rain they were beautiful. The most beautiful, beautiful skies. As a matter of fact, the sunsets were purple and red and yellow on fire and the clouds would catch the colors everywhere. That's neat because I used to look at them all the time when I was little. You don't see that. [00:37:23] Speaker B: Jake, can I ask you a question? [00:37:26] Speaker A: Sure. [00:37:29] Speaker B: What were the skies like when you were young? The skies. [00:37:37] Speaker A: There was purple or pink fluffy clouds. Little, little fluffy clouds. That, that was the worst impression of. That was the worst version of Ricky Lee Jones. I. I could do. [00:37:55] Speaker B: Purple and red. Let's get into it. All right. So my song that I gifted Jake, this gives giving and sips giving, was the Orb's little fluffy clouds. The Orb is a very loosey goosey collective, you know, as these folks often are. It's always like a duo, blah blah, blah. Like they've lost members and gained some and, and collected some and, and, and then sometimes they tore as this and that. The other. [00:38:29] Speaker A: Over the years I couldn't find like a solid lineup. Like. [00:38:33] Speaker B: Well, well, the biggest one is. Is Patterson. There's one guy that's been the Orb. He's just the Orb, like, and then he, he brings on people. At. At a certain point in 1990, I released little Fluffy Clouds. This song that is just. It's just kind of joyous and like fun and like fluffy and. And you know, it's like bouncing on marshmallows. It's like really, really a lot of fun. You know, exuberant and, and, and joyous and all this. It's about 105bps. Yeah, it's, you know, and I. And like the way they made this was like. It's very Avalanches style from our previous episode where they're collecting samples from here and there and putting them into this thing and this. Making a collage and we'll figure it out in post or whatever. And they ended up with their biggest hit, which is Little Fluffy Clouds, not to be confused with Orbital. The Orb was very famous for doing like chill out sessions after parties. You would go to the rave and then you go and see the Orb and then you would calm the fuck down. You would center yourself and like feel better about everything. They are, you know, unconcerned with persistence, decision. They are, they are not worried about making this a dance hit or anything like that for any of their tracks. They are making kaleidoscopic sound collages and they just want you to feel okay. They just want to put a quilt on you. All these songs are quilts. Every track they do, every performance they do. And every age performance is different. Jake, what'd you think about Little Fluffy Clouds? [00:40:36] Speaker A: It reminded me of A lot of. Of different artists. It was. It was kind of like. So this was like a perfect, like, amalgamation of so many of different artists that we've. That we've covered. Like, even though. Even though it wasn't on Modern Chemistry or you've Come a Long Way, Baby, which talked about Eat, Sleep, Rave, Repeat by Fatboy Slim, where the guy tells the story of a cat walking into a bar. And so, like, it's like. So that song, if. If you're not familiar with this, like, it's this guy just telling a story of a cat walking into a bar and dancing. And, like, there's all this production going around, going behind it, and he's just, like, talking. He's kind of just telling a story. Y. So I heard, like, hints of that. Hints of, like, Fatboy Slim. I heard a lot of, like, Crystal Method, Avalanches. Yes. Heard a lot of Hybrid as well. [00:41:34] Speaker B: Okay, in what way? [00:41:36] Speaker A: The. The way it kind of sounded like it could be like a. Like a movie. [00:41:38] Speaker B: In what way? For each of them. [00:41:40] Speaker A: So Fat Boy Sim was the, like, combining that audio, Crystal Method. I thought it was synths, but as we'll. As we'll get to. It's just. It's like. It's. Sampled guitars, which I thought was, like, really interesting, remind me of, like, really. That really sleek, really cool sound that we heard on Vegas Hybrid. It sounded. Because it sounded very cinematic at times. And Avalanche is the drums, and Avalanches and Portishead, both because of the drums. Okay. [00:42:15] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So this is a wild one. Like. Or Orb is like. They're. They're just doing collages like. Like, they. I've seen them live before and. And like, they just get there and like, okay, here we go. We're gonna start some sounds. We're gonna throw some sounds out there. We're gonna throw some other sounds out there. We'll throw a beat and then we'll see what happens and we'll just make this on the spot. So there are many, many iterations of Little Fluffy Clouds, their biggest Track, I believe, 29 versions of it, like, released, like, on. On physical and digital media. And there are countless remixes out there on the web and all this. People follow the orb like they follow fish. Like, oh, they're gonna play this song. But, like, they're. They're doing it different every single time because they are. They are. They're up there in the. They're just, like, tuning in on FM radio. Let's see what happens to this. And, like, we'll see what happens? And like, you know, like, they famously, like, have sampled Loving you. Love in you is easy because you're beautiful. They. They incorporate that the same way that Orbital incorporated Bon Jovi and in our previous Orbital episode. Now, Now. But like, they do did that by happenstance, by accident even. But now it becomes like a classic. Like, oh, my God, remember that one time that you sampled these guys? They're meant to be played at like 4am you were exhausted. You want Taco Bell. You just went, your ears are ringing. You just had a crazy night. You brought a few friends back to your home, you put on the orb because everyone's still rolling a bit. And, like, we're gonna see what happens, if you know what I mean. You married, man. I go back to the, the Brian Eno quote where he was like. Where he's like, I want people to be able to listen to us and hear a bird chirp, hear a plane go over and not know if it's in the work or not. And that's like exactly what the orb is doing. Not only are you listening to this piece, this, this movement that we've, that we've collaged together, but you don't even know which is what. What's part of it and what is not. Not. Which I think is the real big secret of something like this. Yeah. [00:45:03] Speaker A: I think even the name the Orb, like, it has an otherworldly connotation to it. Like it's the orb, you know, like, don't look at the orb. Something like something is very sci fi, you know, very. [00:45:17] Speaker B: A little Michael. Michael Crichton, the Sphere. And yeah, that's. [00:45:21] Speaker A: That's weirdly, that's what I was. That's what I was thinking. The sphere, I was also thinking of, like Stargate, I don't know, loves love. [00:45:29] Speaker B: Stargate, Love Stargate, Love it. [00:45:32] Speaker A: It was great. But I, I took some notes. So as I mentioned, as I did a very bad impression of earlier, the song famously samples jazz and R B singer Ricky Lee Jones. [00:45:45] Speaker B: Yes. Do you know the. Are you familiar? [00:45:48] Speaker A: I know she sang that song Making Whoopee. Making whoopee. [00:45:54] Speaker B: Is that right? Okay, go on, go on. I don't know. I'm not too familiar with the artist. The interview that they've assembled, they. What did this guys look like? They were purple and red. [00:46:05] Speaker A: He was not pleased with them sampling it. [00:46:08] Speaker B: She famously was not too thrilled with being a club hit. [00:46:16] Speaker A: Would say, like, I was reading on the Wikipedia page for the song. How, how every time she's asked about it, which I think she got. I think she got some. Some money. [00:46:25] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:46:27] Speaker A: Nowadays, if she's ever asked about it, she. She's not very. She's not. She's not feeling little fluffy clouds. [00:46:35] Speaker B: Yeah, I think she. She refers to them as those. [00:46:39] Speaker A: Yes. [00:46:42] Speaker B: Yeah. She was not too jazzed to be, like, part of this song because apparently, like, she was like, my voice sounds nasally and all weird and like. And also, like, they didn't ask permission. [00:46:56] Speaker A: Also in the research, talking about the. The. The drum sample. Yeah, he. He was kind of, like, iffy about telling where it is because he. He said something like, my manager says, don't tell. Don't tell where I got my samples from until we've signed the contract. Or something like that, I think. [00:47:14] Speaker B: Yeah, the. What the. The or guy putting the music out was like, just don't. Just don't tell anyone where you got this stuff from because. Just, Just don't. Because they won't with us. And they did with them. Like, they were. They re released this tune many times in 90 and 93, 1990, it was 87 on the charts. And then, like. And then 93 was, like, number 10 on the charts. So there's a lot of versions of this song which was. I was worried about giving it to Jake because, like, I want to make sure you. You heard the proper version of it. The. The drunk, the drums. Right. How did you find that out? How'd you figure that out? So, listeners, listeners, Jake sent me the. The drum sample of the song tonight. I was kind of blown away, along. [00:48:09] Speaker A: With the Ricky Lee Jones monologue that she gives that's sampled in the song, I should say so. The song also features a harmonica sample from insanely influential and important Italian conductor Ennio Morriconi, who's famous for the Sergio Leone spaghetti western starring, like, Clint Eastwood. So it features a. Like I said, a harmonica sample from his score for Once Upon a Time in the west, the one that stars Henry Fonda and Charles Bronson. And there's also a really awesome guitar part from Steve Reich's electric counterpart. And the guitar parts, actually, this is for all the guitar nerds listening, was played by Pat Metheny, who is an incredibly amazing jazz guitarist. So, yeah, Pat McAppearance on. On this ep, making his first appearance that I know of on Sip and Mimos. [00:49:19] Speaker B: No, no. Did you know about this guy, Pat? Yeah. Oh, yeah. [00:49:24] Speaker A: He. He played for, I think, Pat McGroup. [00:49:28] Speaker B: That guitar piece is so beautiful. And then, like, in the Orb Talk from it. Yeah. [00:49:34] Speaker A: Oh, absolutely. And it was really, I think he's credited on like on the song. And so seeing that, and as a young guitar nerd, just he, he was always in the, in the Guitar World magazine. So seeing his name, I, I was, I recognize him. [00:49:51] Speaker B: Oh, far out. Okay, so, so the story goes like homegirl, Ricky Lee. So Rick Lee Jones was like not too thrilled to be sampled. But then our man, the guitar hero, Steve Reichs was flattered. But then like years later, he was like, hey, give me 20%. And they're like, yeah, you got it. And then they paid him off. He's like, okay, cool, cool, cool. And then they collaborated on future stuff. Like he was like into it. He's like, cool, cool, cool. Oh, love that. [00:50:24] Speaker A: You see that going sideways so often, especially in this day and age where people just get sued, you know, it just, it's a bummer. But for that. So I think the guy that was from the Electric Counterpoint by Steve R. Rach. [00:50:42] Speaker B: I was, I was hoping you would know. [00:50:45] Speaker A: I, I, I know Pat Metheny played the guitar part on it. [00:50:49] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:50:50] Speaker A: But I think it was actually written. [00:50:51] Speaker B: By, it's like written by Rick but like performed by. Yeah, it's truly beautiful. [00:50:57] Speaker A: It looks like, it looks like that piece was really influential to the aforementioned Johnny Greenwood. [00:51:03] Speaker B: Oh, okay, that makes sense. Yeah. [00:51:05] Speaker A: Looks like Johnny has performed that piece quite often. [00:51:08] Speaker B: Really. I want to hear Johnny Greenwood playing. [00:51:16] Speaker A: But arguably, I mean, next to the guitar samples that are just like mixed and distorted and altered in really interesting ways to the point where I thought they were just synthesizers. Arguably. The thing about little fluffy clouds that really sticks out the most are those drums. Yeah, it's almost big beat, but not full blown big beat. Almost trip hop, but not full blown trip hop. [00:51:42] Speaker B: Well, if you got your years right, this would be before Big beat. [00:51:48] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. 90 and Big Beat was invented in 94. [00:51:52] Speaker B: Almost as if it was inspired by it. Ah, go on, go on, go on, go on. [00:51:58] Speaker A: So this is before the founding of the Big Beat club. [00:52:02] Speaker B: Yes. [00:52:05] Speaker A: So the drums are actually sampled from Henry Nilsson's song Jump into the Fire. [00:52:10] Speaker B: Okay, so how did you, how did you know this listeners? Jake sent me a sample before I could find it. Before I could find it today. By the way, that song rocks. Oh man, it's so dope. Go ahead, go on, go on. Tell them. [00:52:26] Speaker A: The drums were played by Mr. Jim Gordon. And if you're interested in hearing the unaltered drum solo, it starts at the four minute mark. Kind, it's kind of, it's kind of a Long song. It's awesome. And do, do you, do you remember what, what movie scene this song was famously. [00:52:46] Speaker B: Come on. Is it good, fellas? [00:52:49] Speaker A: Yes. [00:52:50] Speaker B: All right, all right, all right. [00:52:52] Speaker A: When. It's when Henry's. The day Henry gets busted and he's all like drugged out and trying to sell the drugs to the Pittsburgh people and take with the helicopters over his head on. Yeah. [00:53:03] Speaker B: Why did I think that was like a Stones tune? [00:53:06] Speaker A: I think there's multiple songs which is like. Oh, it's the drum sample from that album, but they're slowed down to like. I think it was 45. [00:53:14] Speaker B: Yeah, they like, they break it down. The, the. The actual track itself is 105 beats per minute, which is pretty slow. It's. It's. It's just above hip hop and it's just below dance music. So it's not like a dance tune. So. Or became kind of a like late night kind of thing. Like you know, 4 to 5am kind of thing. And also a back to mind. Much like Groove Armada was like a. Oh. After the club, after we raged. Now you have friends back to your place and you put this record on and everyone kind of fucking mellows out. [00:53:58] Speaker A: Watches the sunrise. [00:54:00] Speaker B: Watches the sunrise. Yeah. [00:54:02] Speaker A: This was a really cool. This was a really cool piece. It was different from Foreign angel because that was just like straight like piano driven. Just a straight like piece of. Of music. This one, like you said earlier, I think it, that was the best way to describe it. It's a collage of a lot of different things. And I think it was really interesting how they, they, they brought the Ricky Lee quotes back and then ended up sampling them at one point. They're just like little, little, little, little, little. [00:54:34] Speaker B: Come on. That's amazing. Yeah, that's great. [00:54:37] Speaker A: So why little fluffy clouds this season. [00:54:39] Speaker B: Of sipsgiving I think this is a song that for me is pure joy. And it seems like it exists in a world of joy. That's just nice. And they made something out of nothing. They looked in their pantry and they saw what they could do and it ended up being. Yeah, it ended up being a hit, dude. [00:55:02] Speaker A: I know when listening to like Portish Head, I could say, okay, like there's the drums and then there's like the sample of strings that they put on top of it. And there's Beth Givens voice, you know, and there's the bass line and I feel like it's very minimalist in a lot of ways. And I hear that a lot with, with little fluffy cows and it's Just. It's such an obscure reference, but we went to this. We went to the store, and there was a book of Rothko, Mark Rothko paintings. [00:55:30] Speaker B: I'm familiar. [00:55:31] Speaker A: Okay, okay. Oh, yeah. Art. Art major. [00:55:34] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:35] Speaker A: You know, famous for those canvas of orange and, like a. A darker shade, a darker red in there. Just like a rectangle, you know, Panels. [00:55:46] Speaker B: Yes. [00:55:47] Speaker A: And so in. In your description, I. I thought of that book, and I. I had to look it up. And as you were talking, I pulled up some Rothko paintings, and I was like, oh, that. You know, it's. It's a lot like that. It's. It's, like, very minimalist, but also very affecting. First time. Listen. Song. I was driving to work in the morning. I. You know, I work in all Austin. I don't live in Austin, so I commute, and I listen to it as the sun was rising, you know, so we're like. We're spoiled with beautiful sunrises in Texas. And it was a gorgeous sunrise. And I heard a sadness in Ricky Lee's voice, you know, like. And felt. It felt like a sadness in me, you know, because her voice sounded like. It was like. Like there was, like, longing for. For her youth in Arizona. Longing. [00:56:39] Speaker B: She misses it. [00:56:40] Speaker A: Yes. [00:56:41] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:56:42] Speaker A: And I was able to, you know, get that from this song, listening to it today. You know, excited to record. I focus more on, you know, the drums and, like, the bounce of the drums and the guitars, and I. It gave me a more uplifting feeling and. And I noticed a. A little. Little, little, little, little. Which I didn't before. So. Yeah, so I. I think. I think this, like, all great art, be it a Rothko or. Or little fluffy clouds or miserable. I think all great art has that ability to, you know, give you multiple emotions and really allows you to. To draw on those inner feelings or what you're going through while listening, while looking, while tasting, you know, while watching. And. Yeah, I think this song is absolutely rotten with that. So, yeah, this was. This was. This was a real treat. This was a real treat to find the Christmas tree or the. [00:57:41] Speaker B: Okay. No, that's great. That's awesome. [00:57:44] Speaker A: I was also thinking of the Kat Dennings, Michael Sarah classic Nick and Nora's Infinite playlist while listening to this. [00:57:53] Speaker B: Why were you thinking of that? [00:57:55] Speaker A: In that movie, they're, like, bouncing around New York City trying to find, like, where this, like, secret show by this band called Fluffy will be. [00:58:05] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:58:06] Speaker A: And throughout the movie, they say Fluffy, like, a hundred times. They're just like, fluffy. Where's Fluffy? And so that kept on popping into my head and I love that movie. So it was nice. That brings this very special holiday episode of Sipping Mimos to an end. We hope you enjoyed listening to the Orbs Little Fluffy clouds and Lit's Miserable. I hope you feel the exact opposite of miserable when listening to that song. I don't. [00:58:41] Speaker B: Yeah. But I felt the opposite too. I that that song as as well as Love of the Cards made me feel very happy. And so I had a really great time this episode diving deep into these tunes and I'm quite thankful that you. [00:59:00] Speaker A: Gave them to me and I'm thankful you introduced the Orb to me. Thank you. [00:59:05] Speaker B: I'm thankful for this show. I'm thankful for you. I think we're all quite thankful. [00:59:11] Speaker A: I am. And. And from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for listening to SIP and Mimos in 2022 and 2021 and 2020. When or if you're listening to this in 2023 or I don't even know, 10 years from now, thank you for finding us and giving us a shot and listening to two music nerds geek out about 90s rock and electronica. I can. I think I speak for Elliot and I when I say it is a true joy to be able to talk about some of the things we love and to know that there are folks out there who who listen and are interested. So from the bottom of our little Mimos hearts, thank you. [01:00:01] Speaker B: Hey, hey. Stay sipping. [01:00:04] Speaker A: Hey, stay sipping. [01:00:07] Speaker B: Happy holidays. Happy holidays.
