What is 'The Mello Hippo Disco Show'?
The Mello Hippo Disco Show is a concept FSOL have been working on since
1997. It is a multimedia concept, with the emphasis on the MULTI. DJ sets
(on what has been labelled by some fans as the Mello Hippo Disco Roadshow),
DJ mixes on websites and such like, a flash-based animation website
(mellohippo.com) and hopefully in the future also a TV programme, all based
around psychedelic music, and two cartoon characters: the Mello Hippo (a
little red hippopotamus with headphones) and the One Man Band Of Cosmos (a
strange hippy bloke with a moustache)

i know this is all prolly old, but it only just came to my attention, esp.
relevant since recent on-list discussions about their new album, "The
Isness" (recently leaked online). further to people's comments a couple of
weeks back, "The Isness" is _absolutely bonkers_. it sorta reminds me of
"Pomme Fritz" by The Orb mixed with The Beatles, with an insanely heavy
Indian influence. biggest change of direction since Moby's "Animal Rights"?
i reckon. and somewhere in the large void between absolutely genius and..
Kula Shaker :)
eep!
