    Story Behind the Song
    Done in one night; the samples are PD from The World of Sound audio comps. I think it was 1983 for this one? There is more like this; if anybody likes it, let me know and I'll post stuff.

    Amusingly enough, I had never heard Negativland until AFTER I did this song. Some guy was at the studio/bedroom and was like, "This sounds exactly like Negativland." When I heard the Pepsi stuff I was like, "Fuuuuuck, my original art has already been done." Oh well. I think this actually "rocks" more than they do, and is less overtly corporate/political. Plus I haven't been sued (yet).
