A short podcast to follow-up the ridiculously long 'cast from two weeks ago.  I had some issues with Jamendo when it came time to put the podcast together, so a couple of artists had repeat songs.  If you want to check out the artists I would have played, links will follow the playlist.

Download the podcast here.

To buy a copy of the Barreracudas' new album, Nocturnal Missions, head to their record label Douchemaster Records (link above).

To purchase The United93's latest album, Yellow Fever, you can do so from their Bandcamp webpage (link also above).

Check out these bands on Jamendo: Cinemon; 57jackbraves.

Warning! This podcast is an hour in length - in other words, double the usual length.  You may want to set aside some time to listen to the podcast.  But don't worry, the music is excellent.  It's full of stuff I've neglected to listen to over the last little while, and I've put together a pretty sweet mix.  Enjoy!

Made mention of the Netblocs at Blocsonic

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, so I picked out a few tracks that had that loving sort of feeling.  Also some disco songs.  PLUS I have some things to say about Hockey Day in Canada, which is today (February 11, 2012), starting at 2PM EST.  And finally, a return to the “cover song at the end of the podcast”.

It's the NHL All-Star weekend here in Ottawa, and I am excited!  I don't normally worry very much about things like making sure I record the skills competition if I'm going to be out for the night (like tonight), or getting HD for this very occasion, but it's in my home town and I have been waiting for this for a long time.  Too long.  Lots of great music today, plus some All-Star trivia!  (Trivia courtesy Liam McGuire/Slam Sports)

The first podcast of 2012! I switched things up a bit from the last regular podcast, and I think things will continue this way for a while. I mention in the podcast that I'm going to try to throw a few more features from time to time; but more on that another time.  Enjoy for now!

Unfortunately, no special podcast planned - just a list of songs I haven't played in a long time. It's also a short podcast, clocking in at under 25 minutes!

Penultimate in the sense that this is the second-last podcast for 2011!  I have some new tracks from 2011 (plus one FROM THE FUTURE aka January 2012 release from AF Music), and some more favourites from 2011 podcasts.  I'm still undecided re: what to do for the December 31st podcast, but I have a couple of weeks to figure that out.  Here's the playlist!

Welcome to another podcast!  I was afraid I might not be able to talk as much for this episode because of a cold, but luckily it subsided long enough so that I wasn't interrupted every few seconds by coughing.  The new release section is a bit light on music, but overall there's some great stuff this week.

Podcast 36 features lots of new hip hop, plus a new feature debuting!  It's called "Five Minutes On" and this week is reviewing His Girl Friday (1940).  Plus there's a new theme (based on TenPenny Joke's song "Sense"), and a few new elements thrown in that may or may not have come across properly.  At any rate, I fixed the microphone problem from #35.  Here's the playlist!
