I know that this blog looks like it might be nothing but covers of Pixies’ “Where Is My Mind” but I just had to post another one.
This cover, by the artist known as THePETEBOX, was made live using a guitar, beatbox, voice and an RC-50 loop station. What makes this cover particularly cool is that there’s nothing prerecorded or added post recording, it’s all live.
You can download the track free from Pete on his website
Because I’ve been in such an 8bit type of mood, I just had to post this cool version of Pixies’ “Where Is My Mind” created by Christopher Voss.
These scenes from Greta Garbo’s “The Mysterious Lady” (1928) seem to go just perfectly with the music from Maxence Cyrin’s cover of the Pixies‘ “Where Is My Mind”.

Did you know that Frank Black broke up the Pixies via a fax? That’s fucking brilliant. I wish I broke up with my exes via a fax. Why didn’t I think of that. Oh yeah, cause I always the one getting dumped.
The Pixies show last night pretty much kicked ass. Watching a show at Magnus Arena is pretty much like watching a show in a large tin box, thus, it’s like listening to a show in a large tin box. Sound quality left something to be desired. I saw Jane’s Addiction there before and didn’t notice the sound, but it was Jane’s addiction, and it was Halloween, and it was my birthday – I probably didn’t notice much of anything. Despite being inside a giant Altoids container the sound was decent. It was loud. Just like it should be. And they Pixies put on one hell of a rocking show (or rawking is how I think the kids are spelling it these days).
They must have played for about an hour and a half and played 20+ songs. I don’t have a set list but I knew most of the songs they played. Apparently they played everything everybody wanted to hear. But Tony’s Theme. Honestly I wasn’t that familiar with the Pixies before this summer so I feel like I’ve really been invited to sit at the same table as the cool kids now. God I hope I don’t spill my milk.
