This album is a collection of songs from various bands or projects,
that have all included Arthur Andrew Jarrett, who first came to ‘indie
infamy’ when Garagey-indie-pop group; The Groove Farm released
their first DIY record in 1986.
Propelling them to Fanzine popularity throughout the 86 DIY pop explosion.
Annoying ‘serious’ journalists who took the band’s ‘amature DIY’ approach and failure to take anything ‘serious’ as ‘lack of ambition’ which was to totally miss the whole point of the groups existence.
When the ‘indie/pop’ tag, the band had been labeled with, started to get
a bit boring, they disappeared and re-emerged as Beatnik Filmstars.
A band determined to change and experiment as and when the mood
took hold, and with several line-up changes along the way.
They ended up on MERGE records in the USA as well as releasing
records on Slumberland, La-Di-Da and their own Mobstar label (Mobstar was basically Raving Pop Blast! using a new name to distance themselves from the past).
They also recorded 5 sessions for John Peel.
