Lots of wicked promos this week… I didn’t even get through all the ones I wanted to play, so more to come next week! Same deal with the new releases – I bought so many killer tracks that I was still burning them onto CD long until about halfway through the show, as I wanted to get as many as possible in.

Big love to everyone who squeezed into the Hobbit for my set on Saturday; the place was heaving and it looked like everyone was enjoying it as much as me which is what it’s all about 😀 See you next time!

Anyway here’s my NSB show from last week… bring the breaks!

Sighs of relief all round as this week’s Adventure comes in only slightly over 2 hours. But what a show! Special bigups to all the artists contributing their unsigned works fresh from the factory… there’s some serious talent on display here…

Next show is on PsyMusic on 16th Feb and I’ve hopefully got a very special guest coming in… announcement shortly, mark the date now!

Mainly on a fat electrobreaks tip this week, with psychedelic twists of course, plus techbreaks, progressive breaks, some classic nuskool and a bit of NSB-appropriate techno. Big ups all chatroom crew, and congratulations to our competition winners TedV and P_Chill who each win a copy of the great VIMBreaks compilation CD Dig The Nu Breed 1 courtesy of V.I.M. Records.

Next show is this coming Tuesday 19th January over on PsyMusic Radio, kicking off at 19:00 GMT, opening the next chapter of Tales Of The Interstitial…

NB: Because there’s no talking, I’ve filed this under Promo Mixes as well as Radio Archives – but unlike the other promo mixes, it won’t fit onto an audio CD.

An extra rare treat for the first show of 2010… I lost my voice on NYE, so there’s no mic/talkover, I just had to let the music speak for itself… 🙂 Also, as we were all still in the recovery zone from the New Year shenanigans, I pulled back the tempo and kept it deep, techy and rolling for the most part, gradually fattening up towards the end of course 8)

Another epic extended show… I carried on past the end of my allotted 2 hours as someone was supposed to be covering the next show but had said he might be a little bit late. In the end he didn’t turn up until nearly the end of that show, so I ended up doing the full 4 hour double feature. Download this mix, and the recent 5+ hour BrapFM marathon, onto your mp3 player, and you’re equipped with enough first-class choonage to survive almost any journey. Except maybe Eurostar.

Here we’ve got mostly my intoxicating special blend of the fortnight’s finest new releases and backcat discoveries in psybreaks, progressive breaks, neck-tingling nuskool, electrifying electro, twisted tech-breaks… and our first tentative foray on NSB into something that could be described as techno (but it’s Robosapiens so it must be ok). But just for shizzles, around the halfway mark as a kind of interlude we go on a brief tour of some classic oldskool hardcore and jungle techno from 1992-1994ish. This section doesn’t exactly fit with the flow to either side… hopefully this lump of strange-sounding foreign material is sufficiently colourful that you won’t find it too obtrusive…

Lots of hot promos and demos this week – thanks to all those labels and artists who sent them. In particular, thanks to unsigned artists Cannabinoid and Unconscious Mind(s) for allowing me to display their wares. I’m very interested in supporting other unsigned acts in this way… assuming I like your sound of course! Think you’ve got something I need to hear? Hit me up.

Next show: Sat 2nd Jan 2010, 19:00 GMT, NSB.

Happy Yule/Saturnalia/Hannukah/Christmas/Cashmas/WinterFest… and here’s to more odysseys in 2010 🙂

Still haven’t quite found a name for this show yet, but there were some excellent suggestions in the chatroom, especially from BooMboxx, so thanks for those — I definitely like the idea of getting some obscure Mayan references in there… but the competition is still open, so if you have an idea for what to call the show, get in touch and you could win a prize!

Anyway, many thanks to all who tuned in, and stayed tuned in despite glitches (trunk network maintenance which I had been warned about by my ISP, so hopefully this was a one-off).

Covering the Mobius Trip once again, we started with some deep and epic prog-electro-psy breaks for the first hour or so, gradually beefing it up into full-fat electrobreaks and a dose of proper psy-side psybreaks, with Doctor Who to finish, and why not? Wicked promo action from V.I.M.Records too – congrats to Disco Patrick who won a stack of V.I.M promo CDs in our competition (and shouts of course to Pale Penguin from V.I.M for the goods themselves!)

First show of 2k9 kicked off with some downtempo breaks and then into dark bass’n’bleep techno, rising into chunky progressive territory, emerging into some epic and twisted electro/psy breaks, and closing out with some full-fat drum’n’bass. Fun for all the family!
