UNITED WORLD UNDERGROUND

 
               
 

'United World Underground' was originally a somewhat foolish (and shortlived) attempt at rebranding M&E in 2000, when we finally left the old way of typewriters, Letraset and photocopying behind. I wanted to go with something that I thought more captured the full scope of the project, and it sounded cool as fuck... in English! And there was the irony, it sounded crap if you tried translating it into any other language! Hah! The best laid men of mice with plans, as they say. But it did make a very good 'umbrella title' for the whole thing; MMATT, M&E and the whole network; all our friends and contacts around the global counter-culture movement, and it's to them that this section is dedicated. Click on the photo (me and Lord Litter, early/mid 90's, Virginia Water, UK) to visit the Facebook UWU photo album. Enjoy muchly...

UWU COLLECTION RELEASE EDITION (OCTOBER 2017)...

Funnily enough, I was quite busy with promoting this landmark release at the time, so there was no network section in this edition at all. However, the booklet that came with the collection is a treasure trove of information...

UNDERGROUND / OVERGROUND

Former Gossville Arsonist zine writer and lover of all things Fortean, Scott Wood, on the lesser known and weirder aspects of my spiritual home, Wimbledon Common. Stranger things indeed...

UNDERGROUND AUSTRALIA

Skot Stikla (formerly DJ Urinal Cake of Vocabularinist) waxes lyrical about what the Melbourne underground crew are up to these days, and not a mention of Rolf Harris anywhere. Oops...

 
 

FALUN GONG

The widely travelled David Bohatyretz (Jaws Of The Flying Carpet / Rotton Kidz) writes about his spiritual journey and his faith in the practise of Falun Gong, widely persecuted in its native China.

FIELD OF HOPE

For some 20 years, when we lived in the south east, Hopefield Animal Santuary in Brentwood, Essex, was M&E's charity of choice. Founders, Paula & Ernie Clark, may be gone now, but never forgotten.

 
 

IN MEMORY OF STEPHEN PARSONS

Stephen played a huge role in the global underground movement, not least through his involvement with KFR. Lord Litter, Don Campau and myself pay tribute to the man behind BBP.

AND FINALLY, UM... MICK MAGIC Nobody else would be daft enough to come up with a stage name on a par with Roger Rainbow, surely? A well established children's magician did just that! We shook hands and sat down for a natter...
