Resonance FM 27/11/18

A deliciously eclectic mix, here... I kicked off the show with a song by Visible Cloaks - who don't really fit this show's requirements but who I've been enjoying a lot recently - and closed the show with a track by Georgian vocal group Orera. Along the way were two tunes from Sudanese artists featured on the 'Two Niles To Sing A Melody' compilation, some vintage highlife from CST Amankwah, and a duo of bangers by Indian/Portuguese/English/Icelandic sex symbol Leoncie.

Resonance FM 20/11/18 (Jockstrap)

On this episode I was joined by my favourite band of the minute, the dynamic orchestral pop group Jockstrap. Georgia (vox/violin) and Michael (bass) from the band played nine songs of their choosing, all of which were by their friends/contemporaries. Scarily talented friendship group they've got there... From Jockstrap's own Taylor Skye to Simeon May's beautiful lonely sax via Rodeo Jones' football-based sound-collage and a double-whammy of bonkers Eric Fabrizi tunes, most of this stuff is new/unreleased and all of it is bloody great. Be sure to listen to this one (and apologies in advance for the couple of technical mistakes that occurred).

I tried the impossible - to condense Le Guess Who 2018, one of the best weekends I've ever had, packed with sensational live performances, into 30 minutes. I wasn't able to make the recordings I'd hoped to, so had to settle with spinning the studio versions of some of my highlights. I played songs from my top three sets of the weekend (Vashti Bunyan, Kate NV, Beverly Glenn-Copeland) as well as some from other highlights (Ammar 808, Rizan Said, Hailu Mergia) and even one from an artist I didn't manage to catch, but wish I had (Howie Lee). What a weekend. Roll on next year...

Resonance FM 6/11/18

I opened and closed this show with songs from the new Dig That Treasure! Records release 'Miscellaneous Recordings, 2008-12'. The album is a 35 track collection of recordings I made during the aforementioned years. As the 'press release' of-sorts notes, "the album is intended as a reflexive, auto-ethnographic study. It’s an open exhibition of amateurism and child-like creativity." It was a strange thing for me to release - and an even stranger thing to play on air. Also on the show were a Cambodian novelty tune, some post-vaporwave-ish-I-dunno, a beautiful and lengthy piece of meditative Ethiopian folk pop, and a recording by the mysterious Rosielou (who, if you see this, please email me, I would like to hear the recordings of yours I have lost track off! - digthattreasure@live.com).
