Lemon Jelly are a British electronica duo consisting of Nick Franglen and Fred Deakin. Their most recent album, 2005’s ‘64 – ‘95, featured a sticker to warn listeners that “This is our new album. It’s not like our old album.” The title comes from the fact that each track features a single sample drawn from years between 1964 and 1995, incorporating each sample in a variety of imaginative ways. The visuals for the videos were created by the Airside design studios.
The Shouty Track samples the track “Horror Show” by post-punk/New Wave band Scars.

Sara Martin (1884-1955) was an American blues singer, in her time one of the most popular. She began her career around 1915 on the African-American vaudeville circuit. A melodious but rather inflexible singer, Martin appears nevertheless to have been a popular success, recording over 120 tracks for OKeh between 1923 and 1928. These include the first recorded blues with guitar accompaniment (by Sylvester Weaver), and the first with a jug band (that of Clifford Hayes, billed as “Sara Martin’s Jug Band”).

Thanks to minha galera and gorette for pointing them out to me. I guess this should have been posted by one of them but, for some reason, that didn’t happen.
heard it on the radio, the other day [later edit: ...and I wish I could say it reminded me of THIS post, but it did not. Sorry picaturi, it was unintended but it was my bad! The song stays 'tho, cause I like the tune ]
