Show 292 – The 2015 Christmas Show

Welcome to the first Christmas show in many years – with the key difference this year being that there are no festive tunes featured (other than the festive intro and outros). Sit back with a hot mug of mulled wine and a mince pie or two and fire up the hifi or the mp3 player to enjoy an end-of-year selection of some of the best music sent to me over 2015. Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year – see you all in 2016!

Skellums – We Are One

Zurich – Alone

The Easton Ellises – Falcon 69

Skellums – Monsters

Locals – Millions of Ghosts

Tiger Factory – King Of The World

Show 291 – The Almost Lost Edition

Tuesday, December 8th, 2015

This is the show that nearly never was; it was started months back as an intended 10th Anniversary Special, but it quickly became clear to me that it just wasn’t coming together as I’d intended. The more I tried, the harder it got to record – until I reached a complete and utter standstill. Struck down with podcaster’s block, I couldn’t make myself record any more than the first third that I’d managed to piece together. I tried many times, and got to the point where I was on the verge of deleting the file and starting over, just to get past the psychological barrier. However, with the passage of time I was able to listen through eventually to what was there and I decided it was actually a decent podcast and could be finished off as a normal show, with none of the anniversary razzmatazz that was making me avoid going near it! So, the show has finally been completed, and features a fabulous trio of Scottish artists for your listening pleasure. Watch this lot – they’re going places (even if it’s just out for a bike ride in the case of the now-defunct Hotrod Cadets!) So enjoy – and do let me know how the new recording setup for this show (entirely iPad on a multitrack DAW) sounds.

Hotrod Cadets – My Heart Sinks

Retro Video Club – Inside Out / Make Up

Ramisco Maki Maki Rocking Horse – For A While At Least / The Four Five Six

The soundbed was ‘In The Sky (Original Mix)’ by Karan & Shivil
Three From Leith theme-tune by Alex Aitken
