Round Up

Just a quick round up of some bits I've recently liked on bandcamp and mixcloud.


Firstly, Steve Miggedy Maestro adds another limited freebie to his growing collection of edits. Rumours are this one has a Philly connection. Maybe some MFSB. 





And also check this clip of the new Julie Dexter album which Steve has been producing. 





Keeping on the spaceinvader friends producing new material, Golau Glau have a new EP called Somato. For more of the background on them and the release, see also this interview with Sonic Router http://www.sonicrouter.com/2011/04/premiere-golau-glaus-somato/







Jared Covington's Cannibalist Manifesto shows are (unsurprisingly) all absolutely essential listens and very educational on stuff I'm not hearing anywhere else really. 


Check the latest show below and the following links are all free downloads of tracks he has been playing. 




Sacred Animals - Welcome Home (Remixes)





Rites Wild - Rites Wild EP







Featureless Ghost - Take It Out





And then one he didn't put me onto but I think it sort of fits in with the sound; 


A Dead Forest - Antique EP





XLII has released a bonus second part to the Red Cross Japan charity compilation, Nihon Kizuna, with some great tracks by Blue Daisy, Machinedrum and Mr Beatnick amonst many others. It's pay what you want so pay as much as you can.







The Roots + Clyde Stubblefield + Chuck D + Fight The Power





And finally, John Legend covering Adele mixed with the beats from Amerie sounds like it should be as exciting as buying cds in Asda but is actually much much better than that.

2010 : Heroes of the year Number 10

This years winners of the 'Doing An 8Bitch' Award (ie haven't actually had any records released this year but still managed to dominate the itunes top 20 played list) is split between two of my heroes this year. 


I've loved everything Golau Golau put out this year and it was a real honour when they kindly dropped an exclusive Songs Of Praise special for us in the summer. They have, coincidentally, got a new a new release up on bandcamp today, a Xmas ep and if you like that then you will definitely need to check Space Invader this weekend as they are back mixing a festive themed masterpiece. It really is something else!





Fauxhemian / Bandshelll just seemed to drop new tracks at the rate of about one a week throughout the year and again getting him to do a mix for us was a real privilege. Thankfully it seems there is going to be full releases coming very soon from this guy and I truly cannot wait.




As 8Bitch, the inaugural winner of this award, has shown us, the powers that be eventually catch up with us and start to give the world what they want and so hopefully this time next year I will finally have my hands on records by both of these artists. Probably more for their sake than mine as they won't want me constantly going on about 'when's the record coming?'

Golau Glau FabZoom mix for MusicBox

Here's a great mix by recent Songs Of Praise guests Golau Glau, dropping a mix for MusicBox radio show on Diversity FM in Lancaster. Particularly look out for their track Arapaima Man which was the track they made after Tea and Cake Records main man Tim, won the (not overly successful) little competition we ran after the show.

**Competition to win a one-off copy of the mix on tape**

We like to write tunes about real things that interest us - we've written about Joe Meek, the Profumo Affair, brains, Michael Jackson's games room, hydraulic mining, teenaged Belgian spies, elections, North Korean breweries and more. We research these topics (not just Wikipedia) and get really into them. How about people suggest something that might be of interest to us to write our next track about and we pick the most interesting/crazy?

Please leave suggestions in the comments on mixlcoud.  If you can't use the tape, play along but don't take it off someone who might enjoy using it. At the end of the day, it's just a couple of C60s, its great music but you can hear it here.
