We like songs as much as the next listener but there is no denying that they tend to go on a bit. Many are the times we’ve put an MP3 on only to get bored and replace it moments later with another. This is why we should never be allowed to DJ.Because long songs are shit and rubbish, indie label Filthy Little Angels are putting together a double 7” made up entirely of one-minute tracks by 16 different acts, including one by The Star Fighter Pilot, aka Martin Bryant.
His contribution, ‘Stalk Tonight’, is a brooding rant based on a twitchy electro backing and creepy Daft Punk-esque double-tracked vocals. As far as songs about following women around go, it is up there with Tom Jones’ ‘Delilah’ in the massively disturbing stakes.
It also features two choruses and a siren. You can hear it here.
In other short song news, The Ting Tings recently took the unusual step of contributing to an NME covers CD with a song that is a) not a cover and b) 46 seconds long. Those crazy Ting Tings, what will they do next?
