“UP ALL NIGHT AT STEREO MARS is about being inspired by names. Walking round for years with an imagined version of what the band Catholic Discipline sounded like years before I heard them. Stereo Mars blatantly had the best name of any Jamaican Sound System amongst some stiff competition but also sound like a system made up in a pulp sci-fi paperback, or someone you might have caught briefly on pirate radio in the early 90s, dial caught between three different signals and buried in static before it’s lost and you only have a noisy fragment lurking in yr memory. A loose follow-up to the first Midnight Mines tape and an attempt to do a kind of live mixtape, 4-track soundclash style.The basis of this is a DJ set our friends in the General Echo Sound System (east london reggae disco in a pub) did warming up for Mad Professor at the old Granada Cinema, a building haunted by John Coltrane, the Ronettes and other greats who trod the boards in it’s music hall days. They recorded the set for posterity on a boombox positioned a bit too close to one of the speaker cabinets. The results were not only totally blown out but the record head also didn’t connect to the tape properly so they ended up with one channel of massively distorted dub tunes and whatever was on the tape previously in the other channel, now murky and underwater. This was handed over to Midnight Mines for further splicing and dicing.”
