Week 28

The first third of this weeks show will all be slow minimal techno, dominated mainly by Tracks by Jeff Samuel. He just released a really lovely collection of his finest works. Despite sticking to the usual hiss and click formula that is typical of this genre, he manages to infuse a sense of momentum is often lacking. After that I've got some electro and house by Ladyhawke, Headman, Space and the Juan McClean. I particularly like headman - dirt (the c90's remix). In the later section Ill have one of my favorite songs of the decade, Salif Keita - Madan. It's not exactly new, released in 2002, but I heard it first this year and I doubt many people will have heard it before. Salif is a Albino from Mali who specialies in Afro-Pop, this is from his best album Moffou. Filling in the gaps will be the runaways - lovers, and Beach House - Norway, both great songs.

Jeff samuel - knob
Walter Jones - I am loved
Dj kozze - all the time

Week 27

I have a lovely and varied collection of songs today. Ill start off with some very slow pieces from Fuck Buttons and Telefon Tel Aviv, then I have a fascinating collabaration between Brian Eno & Karl Hyde called Beebop Hurry. Travelling halfway across the globe I have a beautiful song by Fela Kuti called ITT part 2. Following that I'll have some deep house and techno from Sascha Funke, Danton Eeprom, Dapayk Solo and Ben Klock. Standout track is Zander VT - Dig your own rave. Its a is a wonderfully deep affair, all sweeping strings and padded kickdrums - a muted Detroit rave-up that's beautifully produced. (I stole that quote!)

I'll finish with a track by Sven Weisermann and Maps. Sven Weisermann is an interesting character a Dj from berlin who has released house and techno. He has made an album of modern classical music (if there is such a thing) called Xine (1st Voyage). Not every track is worthwhile, but those that are are fantastic. There's an interesting interview with him here: http://www.residentadvisor.net/feature.aspx?1034

Enjoy!

Week 26

I have a great selection of music this week, so many songs I'll probably go a little over my scheduled hour. I'll play the only track I havent played yet from the Fields latest album. This one is called Sequenced, and this like Leave it, is one of the tracks on which you can really hear the difference in the new material since he is using a real drummer rather than a drum machine. Ill also be playing two tracks by The Phenonmenal Handclap Band, 15 to 20 and You'll dissapear albeit both heavily remixed to make them dancefloor friendly. As a contrast ill be playing Paul Simon - Diamonds Dub (Tangoterje Edit). This appears on the latest Disco No Disco compliation, of which I've played a few tracks already on previous shows. This is probably my favorite album of the year. Each song is a very subtle reworking of a classic song from the last 30 years. I love that each one is done in the style of the song itself, so the remix is hard to spot.

I also have some great new Deep Techno, most of it from the excellent Liebe Detail - Digital Compilation 01. Nearly every track is great on this, I chose some almost at random. In between all this I have a new Uffie Remix, a great Sirusmo Remix of Chromeo, new hip hop from Clipse F Camron and some other stuff. Enjoy!!!!!
