Project Moonbase – The Historic Sound of the Future | Unusual music show | Podcast | Space cult | projectmoonbase.com episodes

  • PMB051 Area 51 (Hal Blaine, Buchanan Brothers, Roger Sprung, Roger Powell, ADR, Peter Howell, Shake Keane, Pluxus, Frank Hunter, Oxykitten)
    This week, dear listener, you find us hovering above that sinister Air Force base, Area 51, as we bring you a selection of variously sinister and suspicious sounds. We also have a track from a release on the new label Public Information as well as a couple of recently released treats on Trunk Records. Not only that, but we also have two (yes, two) doses of bluegrass!
    54 min
  • PMB048 Smells Like Moon Spirit (Mambo Kurt, The Sparteens, The King, Little Roy, Kazyutron, Charles Bradley, 2 many djs)
    It’s time for some shameless opportunism on the show this week as we jump on the bandwagon of celebration taking place to mark the 20th anniversary of the release of Nirvana’s Nevermind. As with our previous track-for-track covers of Kraftwerk’s Man Machine and the Beatles’ White Album, we believe we can improve on the original. So for this show we have cracking cover versions of 9 of the 13 tracks on the album, covering genres as far flung as German lounge, Basque doo-wop, Russian chiptune and even some reggae from Kingston Jamaica.

  • PMB047 Electric Rain (Gil Trythall, Sun Ra, Art van Damme, Coda, Perrey & Kingsley, Gordon Langford, Tony Hatch, Coda, Korla Pandit, Sachal Studios)
    We're getting all seasonal on the show this week as we take the weather, or more accurately the various forms of precipitation, for our musical theme. This was largely inspired by another track on the recently released Sachal Studios album where former Lollywood orchestra members were brought out of retirement to perform a selection of jazz standards. In this particular case, Misty. As well as mist we also have fog, rain, dew and associated paraphernalia.

  • PMB046 Cassette Heads (Dylan Ettinger, DMX Krew, R Stevie Moore, Orca Team, Pye Corner Audio, Monroeville Music Center, Oxykitten, Super Mazembe)
    As you may know, dear listener, there’s been a resurgence of interest over the last few years in releasing music on cassette tape. This is something we heartily endorse at the Moonbase, being as we are enthusiasts of all forms of obsolete technology.
    So on this week’s show every track comes from a cassette release – and not only that, it is played from an actual tape!
    We have selections from new releases by Dylan Ettinger, DMX Krew, Monroeville Music Center, Pye Corner Audio, R. Stevie Moore, Orca Team, Giant Claw and Oxykitten and a not-so-new-release by Super Mazembe.
    As the number of people who voted “yes” in the recent poll on our website vastly outnumbered the no votes, we are also delighted to announce that this show will itself be released in a very limited run on cassette!
    We’ll let you know how, when and where you’ll be able to acquire a copy of what we feel will be a highly collectable item.
    Alternatively, download the MP3 directly.
