I somehow had never heard Swirlies' "House of Pancake" until this week. I do not know how I've been living this long without it.

Swirlies, the Boston noise-gaze pioneers, were one of the rawest and punkiest shoegaze bands of the 90s, but they still found enjoyment in the electronic genres that were developing around them. Their entire 1998 album, Strictly East Coast Sneaky Flute Music, is a jumble of oddball remixes of previous Swirlies songs, including a DJ Spooky remix that sounds like Tortoise.

Their first remix, however, was "House of Pancake," a baggy flip of their Blonder Tongue Audio Baton standard "Pancake" that was included on the cassette edition of their 1993 Brokedick Car EP. It's very clearly a more rugged and boom-bappy take on what My Bloody Valentine did with "Soon," and much like "Soon," it's utterly dazzling.
