Black Octopus Lipstick Project

Peek-A-Boo Records labelmates Black Lipstick and The Octopus Project team up for a joint effort after intensive laptop market tests by DJs at random Texas parties yielded booty-shaking results. An alternate title for this EP might be Converted Converted Thieves, as the Octopus Project take select tracks from Black Lipstick’s hot-selling Converted Thieves and dissect them on their laptops, tinkering with ’Lipstick’s hot lix to craft new sounds and songs. Using ’Lipstick’s rock beats and squalling guitars, The Octopi create something original and entirely thumpin’. Amid hypnotic bass and drum loops, guitar riffs, piano riffs, and even voices are recycled, reversed and reverberated; in fact, ’Lipstick’s “off-tune” poetic stylings yield a new alien language. Like rusted bicycle parts in a beautiful scrap-metal sculpture, the end product bears little resemblance to the original except for the parts from which it was constructed. The four remixes are of course cool and dancey, Octopus Project-style, and are annexed by an unreleased Black Lipstick bonus track from the Thieves sessions: “Funky Soldiers,” featuring lead vox by bassist Steven Garcia.  • Four Black Lipstick songs remixed by The Octopus Project, plus a new ’Lipstick track • 74 minutes of music at an EP price • Limited edition of 1000
