Hey was trying to do one a month but kinda been a bit too busy as ever – heres a nice xmasy (ha not at all xcept its pretty dark!) mix for the winter season. A bit of old bbc workshop stuff by the ever fantastic delia derbishire to start things off followed by some strange subdued electronics from dictaphone and murcof before we step into the techie stuff I’m loving anything by minilogue right now- and also am enjoying the Floyd sample in tigerskin’s Peters Secret weapon – real handy record to have in your box.
If you havent heard it check out the school of seven bells album which closes the mix fantastic stuff.

Ok thanks to Parfo I’ve finally got off me bum and done a mix – its called Eclectalot and it will be up for a limited time as of tommorow – it’s a completely crazy mix covering most of the stuff I’ve been listening to whilst working here at Charanga building music software for kids. It’s kind of a nice journey from sofa to pub to club to late night. Allot of its a bit jump up as you’ve got to clear your mind of those crazy kids songs as fast as possible! Theres gonna be some lovely french houseness a bit of dubstep (apoligies to Benga in advance as I love that tune but my copy’s not in the post yet so soz for the rippp!!!). And of course its topped and tailed by 2 of my fave folkies of the moment – Fleet Foxes and Bon Iver – tommorows kids

Just a quick apology for being too damn busy to post of late….the reasoning well … the Laish sextet which I am now a member of takes up allot of my time – check us out at www.myspace.com/laishmusic – also been working hard in my new role helping to create software to teach kids music so unless you want me to blog about how hip the banana rap for 6 year olds is rather than the latest beats I reckon i’ll just keep quiet…
However some great finds have been coming my way but now the summer is out I urge you to go and download post rock and other folk from way back as its fantastic…
Be back with some songs soon enough

I’ve been getting back into trentmoller of late (after leaving my portable drive with all my tunes on it i’ve been left with radioheads in rainbows and both Boards of canada and trentmoller’s back catalogues so not all bad) – been just loving “The Last Resort” minimal enough but sooo beautiful I emplore you to go back and get this album – perfect for late night listening or keeping you going in the wind and the rain – Anders Trentemoller has got a new album of selected tunes and remixes out now too which is pretty good

This is a bit of a haloween special here a nice disturbing set of SCARY samples on this wonderful Mogwai-esque number from a french band who are fast becoming my top listen of the moment (just check my last FM page to see how much I’ve been indulging!) – this track is off of the 2005 album Before the Dawn Heals Us- however the amaazing new album Digital Shades Volume 1 is out now on Goom/Mute.

Had this mix lying around for a while and as the winter is rolling in thought I’d post it as a reminder of the beginning of summer that was the first festival of the season – Firegathering. I did a little spot on the Saturday night that was probably one of my fave moments that year (despite the laptop crashing before I even started). Anyway I did a couple of mixes in preparation and this is my fave of the bunch
