    Burial – ANTIDAWN / Space Cadet

    Better late than never – checking out some releases I missed and somehow Burial released an EP in January called ANTIDAWN and I missed it (listeners of Radio Clash will know I actually checked back in December for the traditional Xmas release and was surprised there was none)? Strange name, given than I am listening…

  • RC 364: Ukraine In the Membrane

    RC 364: Ukraine In the Membrane

    When the ship goes down, you’d better have an humanitarian corridor – mashups, Ukraine drag queens and current events looking large over everything, indie rock and Britpop, swing metal, latin, disco, ambient, neo-classical, Japanese punk and computer game exotica, modern rave, and bid a drum and bass farewell to MC Skibadee and err, swing n’…

  • RC 363: Swinging Songs For Mashup Lovers

    RC 363: Swinging Songs For Mashup Lovers

    The return of the mashups, now re-integrated back into polite society and the podcast, now mixed live with non-mashups a merry sort of chaos (no-one mixes music like this!). This is the second ‘Towelcast’ – originally streamed live from The Disco Bathroom. If you watched the stream (well the bits that haven’t been trimmed or…

    Kleptones – AD

    If I was to choose one word to describe The Kleptones fourth album in the ‘quadtriptych’ it would be angry.

  • Kleptones got LO LO LO LO

    Kleptones got LO LO LO LO

    It’s another Wednesday so what does that mean? Another Kleptones album, the third – LO – accurately described because this has low downtempo moods – I hinted at that on one of the previous posts. Ranging from Daniel Johnston, Pigface, David Byrne, Mark Kozelek, Richard Thompson, Bill Withers, Sonic Youth, Leonard Cohen to Beth Orton…

  • Downtempo is the new Rock n Roll

    Downtempo is the new Rock n Roll

    Continuing the downtempo theme from Hallmighty & MarkJMix’s latest album is the return to mashups by Departure with a new name – Certified Mashup Girl (also on Soundcloud). This came out at the end of September so yes I am late on this, but it has a chilled downtempo fusion of the likes of Brian…
