BLEEDING PANDA COMPILATION!
WHAT?
Some anonymous user here posed a challenge with a theme of naked running (he or she wanted it to be with some water sprinkles or something) but this name seemed a bit shorter and simpler. Also, someone criticized him/her for that, but I thought it was a ridiculous idea that should be definitely done. As it turned out, this is one of my catchiest compilations, but feel free to criticize it.
Now, it's filled with french perverse 70's LSD funk, some monstrous jazz + samba flipouts, several cult and very influental songs mixed with ridicule of The Beatles and the non-existent hippie-parody Dewey Cox himself.
This small collection went through some big changes over time. At first, I made it the most obvious way - indie experiments with japanese and NY noise bands (OOIOO, Optimo, Pullsallama etc.) but that was simply to simple, raw and it was'nt "romantic" and humorous enough. So I basically shifted entirely from that direction into sex, retro, french, jazz, kinky, ridiculous direction and tried to make a sort of a "soundtrack" that is not that tough at rhythm but more into the freedom loving atmosphere of the swinging sex organs .
Standout tracks, and maybe tracks that make this comp a must have (for those who never heard them before) are definitely: the gorgeous and life-fulfiling, jamming Andrew Bird's Coney Island Shuffle, Janko Nilovic's by far the best composition Xenos Cosmos from 1972 (the last 1 minute of the song is golden and the rest of his work is mostly crap), magickal Senor Coconut's - Rydeen, of course Serge Gainsbourg's cult classic Bonnie and Clyde, Sohail Rana's Soul Sitar - a perverse take on bollywood humour (Guys from Ninja Tune label had lots of fun remixing this gem) and the infinite Piggies - spitting humour from The Beatles. Also, I should mention Marsha Hunt with her nipple shaking (Oh No! Not) The Beast Day, a strangely missed groovy 70's funk club hit.
Enjoy this comp, leave a comment and maybe some ideas, links, whatever. I am always looking for new material to fuse.

This makes me want to strip at my desk, throw my smalls into my colleague's face, and tear naked through the office until dismissal.
Also dear B. Panda, there really needs to be more posts from you. Exquisite work.
Wow. I assumed the idea was dismissed. I posted said comment and am incredibly happy to see you took it to heart. My 30 minute commute just turned into a "naked from the waste down" 30 minute commute. Thanks for making the challenge your own, and excellent job.
ah yes. by the time funny feelin' comes up, you KNOW you're just gonna listen to the whole thing at least thrice. bril.
@ Olly - Love your idea :)
@ Croke - Thanks for the idea, I am quite happy at how the comp. turned out.
@ Anonymous - :) I hope you like the rest of it.
thanks all!
This is straight into high rotation for me! The Paul Mac remix is what really hooked me in. Classic!

thnx man.
פשוט נפלא! - which means simply wonderful

Cheers friend!
Thanks people for this, I like that Ali Disco B mix the mst. Ill post the whole thing for support.
Enjoy!
Holy smoke! You left out the perfect song for this: Peter Stampfel's "Running Pissing Man". It's available from eMusic, or I can slip you a copy.
jeez...this site is sooo sooo wicked. To find The Truth is Hard to Swallow brought back so many memories. let's hear it for progressive female performance artists well ahead of the curve. love Karen Finley and I'm so lovin' your site. next on the menu for my somewhat discerning palate, 'V.A. Soundtrack for Naked Runners (09)'. couldn't be more thrilled. keep diddling my man-peanut Panda and we may soon have to consummate this thing...
Tried this in action (actually went naked jogging) huge success
phinneas glad you loved the nude tunes:)
Fuck! I lost all my music through a hard drive failure and this was pretty much top of my list to get back. I even had to come back and comment on how awesome this compilation is.
Well done! Thank you Bleeding Panda!
(now I just need to wait for the dl to finish so I can queue up that McCartney track again lol)
Phat
Interesting album, indeed some of the tracks induce me to take out my cloths and run naked in the office, the boss is not here, I think this is a good time to do it.

Hi ALL,
Would it be possible to re-upload this stuff?
That would be highly appreciated because I've missed this post and the links seem to be both dead.
THX!
