Gwilly Edmondez Sings CHART SWEEP - (initially DO or DIY's WFMU Marathon Premium 2014)

This was first made available for free as an audience Premium for the People Like Us WFMU show "DO or DIY", as part of the station's 2014 Fundraising Marathon. For this WFMU premium, DO or DIY invited Gwilly to sing along with the whole 74 minutes of Chart Sweep on headphones, which was then collaged by Vicki as both both a mix the original and also left as just acapella.

CHART SWEEP (AKA TIME SWEEP) is a 2-part mix created by Hugo Keesing using up to 5 seconds of each and every #1 since the mid fifties, in order, up until 1981 in Part 1 and into the early nineties in Part 2. find more info at ubu.com/sound/keesing.html

Gwilly Edmondez started watching Top of the Pops when he was 3. From then on he was obsessed with pop music. he has developed an approach to music making that collides a pop sensibility (with all its showbiz delusional rhetoric) with the materials and mentalness of experimental music.

Since 2003 People Like Us [Vicki Bennett} has been broadcasting a radio show on WFMU called DO or DIY. The show mixes highbrow with lowbrow to challenge whether there is much difference.
