Angus had the below to say about his Transmission:

“I think Creed’s second album, Human Clay, the live version, needs no explanation. So I put together a second mix so I have something to talk about here:

1. Call Me – chipmunkson16speed. The Blondie song covered by Alvin and The Chipmunks and then slowed down to 16rpm speed. Pretty fucking weird.

2.Mother Sky – Can.

3.Border on Control – City Calm Down.

4. This Is the One Thing We Did Not Want to Have Happen – The Brian Jonestown Massacre. If you haven’t watched the film Dig! You need to. Anton is a wild dude and a genius. I chose this of their songs because I’m a massive Joy Division fan, and this song pays homage to that so it’s killing two birds with one stone.

5. Dumb Love – Jack Ladder & The Dreamlanders.  Just listen to that voice.

6. Lapochkta – The Mars Volta. A mate of mine from the central coast introduced me to At The Drive In when I wanted to be a punk. I believe the track was One Armed Scissor. I’ve followed Omar ever since.

7. Sea Within A Sea – The Horrors. A progression in musical style thats mirrored my own taste.

8. Perfect System – Michael Ozone. A taxi driver from Melbourne, but possibly also an Audio/Visual genius. Just watch the music video to this track if you don’t believe me. If you ever get the chance to see him live do, that shit is a good time.

9. Golden Arrow – DARKSIDE. Also Listen to their remix of the entire Daftpunk – Random Access Memories.

10. Renee Running – Dude Energy (Suzanne Kraft).

11. Why Won’t You Make Up Your Mind (Erol Alkan remix) – Tame Impala. The perfect combo.

Dunno why I chose these songs now. I couldn’t tell you what they all mean together or what this says about me. I think ‘Human Clay’ really speaks to who I am as a person and what the meaning of my life is.
