The lead track on this 12” ‘You Were Very High’ turned a lot of heads and became a club oddity, being played out by DJ’s around the world – and some movers and shakers have hailed the 12” as “Shit \u0026amp; Shine’s best ever release.” Strong words indeed, but one that some will find hard to argue with? When speaking to Loud and Quiet in 2022 about this now legendary release, Craig Clouse, the man behind Shit \u0026amp; Shine said, “Humour is totally crucial, sometimes I want to throw in instantly recognisable reference points because it’s relatable, and just to bring a smile to people’s faces.” So now in 2024, as the original 12” has become a bit of a collector’s item, trading hands for £60+ on Discogs – Shit and Shine and Rocket Recordings have decided ‘You Were Really High’ deserves a one off repress. This expanded version of the EP, which is housed in new art and ltd to only 300 copies, also features a mighty extra track called ‘Dave, Have You Ever Been To London.’ A certified banger that is destined to be blasted out in Berlin’s, darkest and dankest techno basements.So if you missed out before on acquiring this incredible release, or like many you simply collect everything the genius that Craig Clouse creates, then it is time to get high on Shit \u0026amp; Shine once again\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rocket Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50441066250571,"sku":"2202379","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_2cad15e3_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726972448"},{"product_id":"kuss-mich-meine-liebe","title":"Kuss Mich, Meine Liebe","description":"\u003cp\u003eBack in stock.

Tensions have mounted, turmoil has reigned and work emails have forever rung out with boilerplate platitudes as the world has ushered in a new decade in more uncomfortable and disquieting fashion than anyone could have imagined in January. Nonetheless, amidst such mental tumult Craig Clouse - the Austin-based sage of the aurally unclean also known as Shit \u0026amp; Shine – has been busily channelling the interface between the surroundings and his own wayward muse into \u003ci\u003eMalibu Liquor Store \u003c\/i\u003e– a lockdown-birthed psychic landscape mapped out in the first half of this turbulent year. The only expectation any relatively well-adjusted person should have of Shit \u0026amp; Shine remains the unexpected at this stage, with Clouse having released well over thirty records on multiple labels in a storied, questing and uniformly invigorating catalogue – just as comfortable with both bloody-minded electronic assaults and noiserock-driven dirge, as adept at kraut-hammered rhythmic mantras as dancefloor-friendly abstraction. \u003ci\u003eMalibu Liquor Store \u003c\/i\u003eis none of these things exactly yet simultaneously flirts cheerily and irreverently with all of them.

The rough and ready cheapo electronics sparkle in full electrifying mode, welding an ascetic gamut of aural hypnotics with a wormhole of uncompromising loop brut. Clanks, bangs, twangs and creeping, ragged globs of sound bloom on the bones of repetition to focus on the swinging stream of dirty anarchy. Stepping out of any context and genre disciplines, S\u0026amp;S finds new sonic trajectories in \u003ci\u003eJoy Of Joys\u003c\/i\u003e which perfectly sit in-between a wobbly cabal of international sub-underground acts: the idiot-avant strategies of LAFMS, early Mego bad digitalia, no-brow enthusiasm of Wolf Eyes family, micro-DIY ethos of Chocolate Monk and the sheer hellish nonsense of US noise circa '00s.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClouse was already established as a landscape painter with a series of faux naïf paintings charmingly accompanying his releases. With his heart full of passion for abstract minimalism, he continued these narrative forms but was always in search of the confidence to paint non-figurative art. The first step into the chaotic abyss is coming from his sonic side by abandoning the beat and riff layers of his previous works to complete nakedness and reductionist courage. At once Clouse makes an evolutionary lurch into extremes as well as taking us back to basic forms in \u003ci\u003eJoy Of Joys\u003c\/i\u003e. He creates an entire new parallel world to Shit \u0026amp; Shine with his maverick imagination presenting us with one of the most mutant releases to bear his name.
