No show this week

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

Many apologies – I didn’t manage to get a show together this week after time ran away with me. I’ll be back next week, but in the meantime why not take a listen to last week’s Made In The UK Show 30, where I made an appearance ?

See you on Tuesday !

Show 142 – Cohesive Granularity ?

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

Listen here or use the player on the right, though I’d love you to subscribe !

After the punk of last week, and following a course at IBM, my brain felt very tired and worn out and in need of a rest. Hence this week’s more acoustic, laid-back feel – just the tonic for a weary mind and body, weakened by talk of ‘architected solutions’, ‘cohesion’ and ‘granularity’. Whatever happened to good-old plain English ?

iTunes is playing up again

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

*** EDIT – the problem has been resolved and the file is now available. Thanks for standing by ! ***

There seems to be a problem getting Show 141 via iTunes – no idea what the problem is this time, but this is really starting to get annoying.

Please either download it directly or hang in there while I tear my hair out trying to get it sorted out…

Show 141 – Punk Sensibilities

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

Listen here or use the player on the right, though I’d love you to subscribe !

This week, TFL comes over a bit punk. I seem to have had quite a few punk / alt-punk / ska-punk submissions recently, and I felt the time was right as I was particularly pumped-up and energetic at the time that I decided on the playlist. So, get the DMs on and start practising your best sneer as I play:
