podcast no 49 - all at sea

Play the podcast - 30:00 minutes (right-click, save as, to download to your computer / mp3 player.)

First, the music:


Mellow Dramas - Inside Out. A fantastic track by Jen from DC, who performs poetry set to great electronic music. Watch the video for Inside Out.

Techno Squirrels - Mute. An electronica project based in LA, this is great techno / dance music.

When I was a novice podcaster, I was contacted by
Todd Stadtman from San Francisco. 9 or 10 months later, I finally got round to listening to his music. I said in the podcast that he reminds me of Elvis Costello. Listen to Anna-Li and Expert and see if you agree.

Finally, as promised last week, a very catchy song. Shipwrecked Man by Danish singer-songwriter Patrick Alexander.

Other mentions:

The Dogbox Podcast - music and motorsport. Bruce McKinnon submitted Shipwrecked Man to AMPed 48, which I presented a couple of weeks back.

Shane Carey's music min-festo - featured on the gaping void, an excellent blog by Hugh McLeod.

Clock by Nick Hemsley - a fine novel by an interesting writer.

AMPed 48

I did another AMPed at the weekend - AMPed is the weekly round-up podcast of the Association of Music Podcasting. 9 songs submitted by 8 other AMP podcasters plus me. Some of these songs were really good, and I've obtained permission to play a couple of them on electrical language soon.

podcast no 46 - all because the podcaster loves milk tray

play podcast no 46 - 30:00 minutes (right-click then save as to download)

Music played:

Kesseny - Simogenjo. Kesseny are from Cornwall (the name means harmony). They make excellent ambient music, and will accept commissions ...

Stereomovers - Ozean (buy their excellent ep from iTunes). Stereomovers are from Montreal. Great band!

The Twisted Melons - Panic.

Jette-Ives - In The Presence Of ... and Ultimately, Darling. Dark, brooding but melodic music. Jette-Ives are not far off fitting a composite of the perfect electrical language band. It's the combination of electronica, alluring female vocal, intelligience in vocals, lyrics and music ... Anyway, they've got an album out in January. I want a copy.

Milk Tray
- nice, but not as nice as Neuhaus cinnamon-pear truffles!
