Goon is a slang word in English, not oft used anymores, meaning a right twat, sort of someone who laughs inanely in places where others just cant find the joke ... a one off oddbod ... but curiously enuff, considering da Global Goon's from Yorkshire not Cornwall, Goon is a very commonly used prefix to Cornish place names, as in Goonhavern, Goonhilly Downs ..., not quite sure of the Kernow exact definition, perhaps the Rephlex Krew could help out on that one! Aless ps: Can't for the life of me understand how some of you have slated Leila's release on Rephlex as "utter shite"! Tis one of the most mind bending/blowin tracks I've heard in aaaaages ... a dark and heavy triphoppy piece (faint reminders of Marvin Gaye's Inner City Blues ...) deep and dark. with dirty sex and funk heavin thru it, ohhhhh man,I wanna dance to this, some of the Rephlex crew had better play this tomorrows down Rephresh or else i'm gonna be askin why! And the A side, "Don't fall asleep" ... a lush orchestral sweep of longing ... minimalist but full of lush emotions and then whooompf! reality sets in and she wants to fuck it all up in some mental maelstrom at the end ... a place where lush dreams and dark nightmares collide ... Respect girl! One of the finest things I've heard from Rephlex in a while ...
