It was 20 Years Ago Today….
Twenty years ago today a very young sounding, rather naïve, 45 year old bloke recorded his first podcast. He’d just been given an iPod for Christmas 2005 and just discovered these things called podcasts on the iTunes website. Finding that some of these podcasts featured independent, hobbyist DJs he decided to throw his own hat in the ring. The rest is history.
I’ve thought about making a new “best of” podcast to commemorate 20 years since this event took place, but it would be no more than an extended version of podcasts I’ve already created. Instead I’m republishing that first ever podcast. Only 5 tracks, but clearly demonstrating what PCP would become over the years. I hope you enjoy it. I still do.
Some Indie from the Sheffield 3 piece band, in the style of the Arctic Monkeys. Nice. From the single “What If’s and Maybe’s” and downloaded from the band’s myspace.
A classy electronic dance groove from the Album “Second Toughest in the Infants”. This version downloaded from the band’s website around 2004, and taken from the “Blue Mountain” concert
Bhangra style beats from the album “Enemy of the Enemy”. This version downloaded from the band’s website
Trip-hop style grooves from Nick Dwyer, based in Brighton. As yet unsigned. This version downloaded from the band’s myspace.
Roots reggae from the Leicester cult band. This came from a one-off single I picked up at a gig at Leicester Polytechnic in 1981. I’ve loved it ever since. I couldn’t find it anywhere on the internet when I made this podcast in 2006 but it’s now resurfaced on Spotify and Bandcamp.
