Aloha!

Right, I didn’t plan on this Episode of Lowering The Tone being the Xmas show, Im just so late with it, that is just how it’s panned out :-)

It's not a bad one even if I say so myself.

This time round I have a very good friend of mine Kristian Townsend (Dubspeeka, Ways & Means, Akasha FX) over for a loose conversation, we ended up having a bit of a big night before, and I was really feeling it the day after, much to Kristian's amusement, as you will hear.

The conversation touches upon everything from Kristian’s upbringing & living out a bus, to running a high influential record label, to the current success of his Dub Techno project Dubspeeka (along with Darren Beale from Kosheen).

I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with Kris, I hope that comes across in this 2hr show.

Musicwise, I pretty much kick the sh*t out of it from start to finish :-)

As always, if you would like to help out and show your support, please just share the link, rate & review if you listen via iTunes, and if you enjoy it please take a moment and make a comment, It means a lot to get some feedback.

I hope you enjoy it.

I’m pleased to say Episode 22 of Lowering The Tone Podcast is finally ready and as always will be exclusive to our Patron’s at https://www.patreon.com/loweringthetone, for two weeks (for just $1 which includes instant access to the track listing). 

The $1 really helps us keep the show afloat and most importantly- advert free... so we really appreciate the help. 

This episode I had chance to catch up with Dom Kane who is simply a world class engineer DJ/Producer Label manager, he records for the excellent Whartone Records & Mau5trap, he also runs his own production based company Kane Audio, he is a real interesting character and I enjoyed chatting with him.

With regards to the music I kept things pretty upbeat & fluid this show leaving towards the different shades of Techno, the deeper selection will return next episode though I promise.

I hope you enjoy, if you do please please share the link with anyone who you might think will like it.

Take care

Meat Katie ‘Lowering The Tone’ Episode 21 (Damon Pages Oliver (OLY) CEO of Blazing Swan) 

Many apologies for the delay in getting this episode to you. My hombre, Ben Coda has been holding the fort down in fine style while I have been getting my shit together!

I’m pleased to say it’s finally ready and as always will be exclusive to our Patron’s at https://www.patreon.com/loweringthetone, for two weeks ( for $1 which includes instant access to the track listing). Then on August 8th, it will be free via: iTunes, Soundcloud, Mixcloud & Podbean. 

Ok. This episode (music-wise) as always, expect a trip into the underground. This time round I belt it out in the mix, mainly because I have had the pleasure of playing some really kicking festivals this summer and it’s simply where my head was while putting this show together!

For the interview, I had the opportunity to grab Damon Pages Oliver- Who is better known to his friends as Oly. He is the CEO of Blazing Swan; an event held in Western Australia every April, which I was lucky enough to perform at earlier this year. Oly gives us a fascinating insight into the inner workings of Blazing Swan, how it came about and the future... and what makes this event so special!

Oly is a proper character and I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with him. I’m at the stage now with the show, where it’s nice to be able to take a look at the bigger picture when it comes to alternative culture and chat with people on the other side of the fence.

I hope you enjoy the show, please share the link if you do!

On a little side note many thanks to all the Alliance crew who made my whole Australian trip so awesome and also made this Episode possible, Big love to all of you, I hope I didn’t miss anyone out on the shouts! (Blame Kymbo if I did
