Sue Barnett - Fit for Life



Back in 1984 Sue Barnett, a Christian PE teacher and wife of evangelist Doug Barnett (according to Buzz Mag), came across the idea of setting an aerobics session to Christian pop, a la Bob Sinclar in  Gym Tonic.  It sounds strangely sexual to me.  Probably not what she had in mind.  But in the quest for new ideas, I felt that I had to bring you this record.  Have a listen in particular to We Need to Hear from You.

Side 1
I'm Forgiven
Under His Reign
Cornerstone
Never Had a Reason
I Have Decided
I Don't Worry

Side 2

We Need to Hear from You
Walk By Love
Somebody new
This is The Day
All I Must Do

I've also started doing some of my own music.  Matthew Stone recently was introduced me to this great software called DJAY - great cause it's easy to use and play with ideas without having to learn all that Ableton malarchy, etc.  I made this mashup from ideas I played with on that software.

The Olympic Trio



I really know nothing about this group and can't read Greek so I can't find anything on the Internet. I assume they're actually called The Olympic Trio.  The music has touches of cheap synths and greek guitars. But here and there is a slight disco feel and it's fun.  

I bought this in the Oxfam shop in Marylebone and it's kind of fun.  I can't identify the track names but I think my favorite is Track B1.
