M.I.A. "Fire Fire"

Have any of you heard this? Do any of you have a non-radio rip mp3 of it? I managed to find a copy from the Giles Peterson radio show on the BBC, and it is very very hot. It's pretty similar to "Galang" but slightly less harsh sounding. As far as I know it's out on a white label right now.

YEah, Radio 1 have been playing it, there was a mention on that other thread. I've only heard radio rips, though.

Not to be confused with the revered German techno producer and Trapez recording artiste of the same name...

I got an XL sampler today with 'Sun Shawa' on it. Sounds quite good on first listen, though not in the same class as 'Galang'.

has he still not done it? that figures.

― lauren (laurenp), Tuesday, 15 June 2004 22:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Swygart can you rip it at 160kbs and email it me? Gmail will take massive files, which I've not tried out yet.

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 05:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Well, Yahoo's meant to let me send fairly large files too. 'cept it isn't letting me do that and isn't sure how big my inbox is either. First day of handover to New Improved System and it is going rubbish.

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 06:18 (twenty-one years ago)

Do you want a Gmail account, William? I can invite you.

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 06:58 (twenty-one years ago)

One of my Yahoo accounts has been updated and the other hasn't, fuckers. Plus I think the interface is ugly.

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 06:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeh, if you fancy.

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 07:47 (twenty-one years ago)

just how the f*ck fo you get a g-mail account. i like the sound of that. but thats only natural. tis the big G. centre of my net-universe. (the day they listed my site in their dir was a personal top trip .. but i'm sad like that ..)

― mark e (mark e), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 07:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah this track is quality with a bit of luck should set up any future rerelease of galang on XL to be massive. So what is that 'Sun Shawa' track actually like?

― myke boomnoise (myke boomnoise), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 09:27 (twenty-one years ago)

Well, I've set up Gmail so I'm sending it out to Southall and I'll div it to Perpetua too, so if he likes it he can put it up (i've nowhere for to do that)

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 09:38 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm definitely posting it tomorrow. Thank you, William!

― Matthew Perpetua (Matthew Perpetua), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 11:42 (twenty-one years ago)

― Crickets Dance On Tequila Booty (Barima), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 19:16 (twenty-one years ago)

i would love to hear this.
but no g-mail party entrance for me... unless ...

― mark e (mark e), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 19:31 (twenty-one years ago)

How does one get a hold of this whole g-mail thang? there doesn't seem to be a way to register. Or is it possible that someone could put these on slsk?

― lemin (lemin), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 19:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Okay how the hell do you get a Gmail account?

― Crickets Dance On Tequila Booty (Barima), Wednesday, 16 June 2004 19:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Hey, please drop me that M.I.A. tune as well.

― TBA (TBA), Thursday, 17 June 2004 10:16 (twenty-one years ago)

It's up on Fluxblog now, it'll be easier and quicker for everyone to get it from there.

Sorry, I should've conducted most of this via the email.

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Thursday, 17 June 2004 11:46 (twenty-one years ago)

You MP3 pimp, you.

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 17 June 2004 12:01 (twenty-one years ago)

William, thx anyways.

― TBA (TBA), Thursday, 17 June 2004 12:33 (twenty-one years ago)

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Thursday, 17 June 2004 12:38 (twenty-one years ago)

oddly enough you could get hard copies (on cd) for 50p in he vinyl exchange manchester about 2 months go. they had a pile. 50p!!
it had the press blurb with it so i considred it an investment.
