On each of our pages, you will find a “guess the song” section. This was inspired by the Cut-Up technique, an aleatory literary technique where a written text is cut up word-by-word and then completely rearranged, resulting in a new text. This technique can be traced back to the Dadaists in the 1920s, a group of avant-garde artists located primarily in Europe. Since then, the Cut-Up technique has been used in a variety of other contexts.

On our pages, we have taken a popular song from each artist, then used the Dadaist cut-up technique to scramble the lyrics and create a new text. We chose to do this to pay homage to and remind us of the avant-garde artists and the history of avant-garde zines. So, if you would like, take a shot at guessing the songs. The answers are found on the final page.

We hope you enjoy our little game and, in the process, are reminded of how all zines began.

Out What he the wrote but run chokin’ on There’s and now goes everybody to;

To loud how He’s over crowd up vomit but

palms the times;

mom’s surface his clocks already;

He’s come on so bombs but on keeps

weak down;

forgetting he heavy; he whole sweater

out;

The calm ready spaghetti are blaow;

the nervous opens;

he are drop knees mouth;

looks arms words;

His jokin’ won’t sweaty his.
