Guess who’s back? Back in the studio and back to a more regular show at last. This might be the most eclectic Rathole Radio ever. There’s a bit of everything in here, well it feels like it anyway. So put your feet up, get comfy, grab yourself a drink and dig in.
00:00 – Tab Benoit – Come And Get It – License Unknown – Heard this on the Roadhouse podcast number 324 and had to play it. Great tune. Check out Tab Benoit’s website and his new album Medicine.
06:50 – Lejo Harmeson & Essence – Complicated Man – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Heard this on the CCHits weekly review show and liked it. Got to the site, listen to the shows and vote, we need people to participate!
10:50 – Regra 4 – Samba Groove, a volta do homem pro mato – CC BY-SA Licensed – One I found randomly while surfing Jamendo.
15:41 – Partition 36 – The Optic Nerve – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – I played a track called “I Love Penguins” by this artist some time ago and this is a great follow up. Lovely slice of industrial sounding electro. Thanks to GamerChick02 for the tip.
21:38 – Derelict Earth – The Darkest Serenity – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A French metal band (from Grenoble), you don’t see many of those. They’ve obviously been listening to some early Metallica I think, and that’s no bad thing.
30:22 – Chamber Music Society Of Lincoln Center – Pachelbel’s Canon In D – License Unknown – Kindly sent to me by Don_S who asked why I don’t play much classical music. As he guessed it’s often the length of the pieces and it’s tough to fit them in. I’m a fan though. (Lincoln Center blurb)
36:46 – Teddy Goldstein & The Goldsteins – New York City – License Unknown – Heard this on AMPed 280 and it was submitted by Peter Clitheroe of Suffolk & Cool. This reminded me of The Eagles in the vocal style and it’s a nice tune. I bought it off CD Baby.
43:14 – LIVE TUNE – “Medicine Man” by Dan Lynch – CC BY-SA Licensed – A tune I wrote some years ago and I have a feeling I might have played it live on the show before. I only realised after I’d done it. Well never mind, people seemed to enjoy it anyway. I’m hoping to soon record an album of tunes like this that have gotten away over the years.
48:49 – ‘Til Dusk – One By One – License Unknown – Emailed to me by Chris from the band. They’re based in Southampton in the UK. This track is taken from their debut album Cold Lust which is released May 16th and you can find out more at www.tildusk.co.uk
Guest next time! Wayne Mayers AKA Fit & The Conniptions.
57:59 – Dual Core – Magnificent Seven (feat Nerdcore) – All Rights Reserved – A big thanks to Mark Horsley for emailing this track to me. I’ve heard Dual Core a few times but not this track. It’s from the 2009 album Next Level which you can get on Bandcamp and other places and it features almost everyone in Nerdcore it seems. Beefy, MC Frontalot and more.
A big thanks to everyone who helps support the show. You donations are the reason I can do this. So click those Flattr buttons and use the Paypal link, and I’ll keep the music coming. Deal?

The last Rathole Radio before the gig on April 24th in Liverpool. I think I’m beyond nerves now, not about playing and performing, that’s easy. More about nobody turning up :S Anyway, enough of that, this is the BIGGEST Rathole Radio over as guest Nick Tann and I discussed music, podcasting, aerial photography and much more. There’s also plenty of music. Enjoy!
00:00 – Betamax DC – Radio (Where Did You Go?) – CC BY-ND-ND Licensed – Japanese artist, can be found on Jamendo. Best wishes to all in Japan right now, we haven’t forgotten you!
05:49 – Insanity Hurts – 18 With A Bullet – License Unknown – Scouse hip hop suggested by Adrian McEwen. This track is great and it’s nice to hear people rapping with Liverpool accents.
14:35 Nick Tann – 3am (Vinyl Project Version) – License Unknown
19:30 – Interview guest: Nick Tann
35:33 – Nick Tann – One Night Stand (Vinyl Project Version) – License Unknown
Much more waffle from Nick and I. Check out Nick’s music on Bandcamp and support him, independent artists rock! We really Ratholed this and talked for ages, the show lives up to it’s name
71:18 – Nick Tann – How Can It Be Wrong – License Unknown
77:12 – Greg Baumont – La Face Cachee De La Lune – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – Interesting bit of breakbeat/trip hop almost by this French artist from Strasbourg. Can be found on Jamendo. I like the weird opera samples with the ladies voice.
86:55 – W.E.I.R.D – Green Eyes – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Interesting stuff, it’s hard to know how to describe it exactly. The genre list on Jamendo says Rock, Experimental, Ambient, Drum & Bass. So I think they’re struggling to define it too. Thanks to Kevie for the recommendation.
GIG MENTION:
Thanks to everyone who’s supported the Rathole Radio gig, it’s in 1 week! I’ve added Paypal to the options because Google Checkout doesn’t work in a lot of countries. Some people requested the option to buy non-attendee sponsor tickets and support us. I can’t believe it, THANK YOU!
You’ll be able to watch the gig online and interact via the chatroom and microblogs, this is all free and there’s no ticket needed. We’d really appreciate your support if you find this entertaining though.
I forgot to go through donations this week, but I’ll catch up next time. If you’d like to chip in, however large or small, I appreciate it. You can use the Paypal button to the right. You don’t need a Paypal account credit cards are accepted. Thank you! There are now Flattr buttons on the site too, you asked for them, so click them mothers!!

The penultimate Rathole Radio before the gig on April 24th in Liverpool. Nerves are starting to rise but the main problem I had this week was the loss of hearing in one ear. I did the show with one ear but wasn’t feeling up to a live track I’m afraid. I was pleased to announce that we’ll be joined next time by fellow podcaster and musician Nick Tann though, listen out for that on April 17th. I also played some great tracks of varying styles for your listening pleasure. Enjoy!
00:00 – Achtung Hans – Dream Date – CC BY-NC-SA – Berlin based band, who love mandolin.
08:51 – Public Enemy – I (Eye For An Eye Mixx) – License Unknown – Available on Slamjamz as a free download single. This is the C Doc remix of a classic track. I saw PE live in London last year and it was one of the greatest experiences of my life, check out this video I took with my phone.
14:22 – PILL – Fearless – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Brazillian electro noise makers. Has an industrial vibe, reminded me of The Prodigy a bit in parts.
20:13 – Allison Crowe – Effortless – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Great Canadian singer songwriter, I really like her. Loads of albums on Jamendo. Well worth a listen.
24:27 – Cedric Share – Airwalker (Original) – CC BY-SA Licensed – French electro producer from Paris.
Upcoming guest – Nick Tann on the next show – April 17th
34:31 – Fit & The Conniptions – Sweet Sister Starlight – CC BY-NC-SA – AKA Wayne Myers a London singer songwriter. I played a track from Bandcamp a little while ago and Wayne very kindly sent me his new CD in the post. The album will be released on May 23rd but you can pre-order the CD now and you get an immediate digital download copy. He’ll join us live on the show May 29th to talk about the new album and all that’s going on. Find out more at conniptions.org
38:22 – Lavinia Jones – Recurring Spirals – CC BY-NC-SA – German artist. A great bit of CC drum and bass I thought, it’s listed on Jamendo as trip hop, sounds more D&B to me.
48:05 – French Collective – Weather Report (by 0xb) – CC BY-SA Licensed – French (unsurprisingly) electro pop outfit. This from a compilation and the artist is 0xb. The collective website seems to be dead now, the track is from 2007, I hope they’re still going.
59:37 – The Damn Choir – Road – License Unknown – From Suffolk & Cool Podcast by Peter Clitheroe, a fellow AMP member.
Thanks to Patrick Dempster and Evgeny Kuznetsov for their kind donations. If you’d like to chip in, however large or small, I appreciate it. You can use the Paypal button to the right.

Rathole Radio is on the loose again and nobody is safe! This time I played my usual eclectic mix of styles and waffled on in a seemingly never ending conversation with myself. I also remembered my guitar this time and played my version of the classic “Many Rivers To Cross” by Jimmy Cliff. What a seminal tune it is. There’s plenty of news about the Rathole Radio gig to dig your teeth into as well. I hope you enjoy the show.
00:00 – Heifervescent – Deep Sea Diver – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – From AMPed 274
06:26 – gmz – Getaway (Otra Vez remix) feat Emonic – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – From Torino, Italy. Made up with tracks from CC Mixter which is cool. I liked the beat.
10:41 – Insan3Lik3 – Nice Day – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – German electro, I like it a lot
18:55 – I Am Not Lefthanded – Lifelines (acoustic) – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – The band just recently released a free EP through Bandcamp in the run up to the launch of the new album. Come see then at the Rathole Radio gig in April!
22:40 – Betamax DC – Yes. Fucking. Please… – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A Japanese artist and it seems a fitting time to play one at the moment. Great quirky tune and I love the voice samples.
I also talked a lot about the Rathole Roadshow gig on Sunday April 24th at the Zanzibar in Liverpool. Tickets are £5 and you can buy them here.
28:57 – Rob Warren – Four Walls – CC BY-NC-SA – From the 2010 album Rise which you can get on Jamendo.
31:34 – Maya Filipič – Stories from Emona I – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – Spanish classical piano artist from Jamendo. Very nice piece I thought, beautifully played.
37:52 – Atomik Circus – Avi Pottar – CC BY-SA Licensed – From Biarritz / Dijon, France. Electro / trip-hop, very cool.
LIVE SONG: 44:55 – Jimmy Cliff – Many Rivers To Cross. What a classic tune, I hope I did it justice
50:41 – King Never – Sorrow – Copyright Of The Artist – Heard this on AMPed 273. This is from the band’s 2010 album possibilities which is available through Bandcamp and iTunes.
58:35 – After Many Days – The Logical Conclusion (Of A Life Full Of Lies) – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Spanish rock which I like a lot. Cool riffs, guitars and harmonies.

Time for another Rathole Radio and this time I played a nice range of music. It encompassed everything from jazz to blues and electro to rock. Most of these tunes came from Jamendo and are also Creative Commons licensed which I encourage. There’s also a live recording of me playing with 20lb Sounds earlier this year.
00:00 – Singleton – Time To Run – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Opening track from the album The High Seas, which is well worth a listen. From Kiev in the Ukraine. Check out http://singleton.com.ua/

08:24 – Tim Wheeler & The Soul Shufflers – Automatic – Sent to my by @brainspoil who is a friend of Tim’s I beleive. He kindly gave us permission to pay this.
13:34 – StrangeZero – Ikebana – CC BY-NC-SA licensed – A cool greek group from Jamendo. Check out the electro sounds.
18:25 – Whispering Johnson – Forty-eight – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed
28:06 – maux2passe – L’envers de ma ville – CC BY-SA Licensed – French hip hop, they love it in France and I’m loving this Wu Tang style production, hats off.

Welcome to another Rathole Radio. I was back in the UK this time and back to a live broadcast. Many people joined me in the chat room and we had a good time. I played my usual eclectic mix of tunes and some listeners described the selection this time as “relaxed”. You can decide for yourself. I also gave my rendition of “Long May You Run” by Neil Young.
00:00 – Blackwell – I Neva – CC BY-SA Licensed – US rapper on Jamendo. He has a good flow and banging beats, high production value. I like his stuff a lot, you’ll hear more as time goes on.
06:28 – Kendra Springer – Hope – CC BY-SA Licensed – One of the top artists on Jamendo and has been for a long time. She plays a mean piano. This song is the title track to her debut album releases in 2009. Kendra says “As an artist, my goal in making music is to create an ambiance of soothing relaxation through the healing power of music, to lift your spirits.”
09:27 – Josh Woodward – Let It In – CC BY Licensed – A popular CC artist with loads of albums on Jamendo. Josh is amazing and I encourage you to check him out if you haven’t already.
17:16 – Bielebny – Good Funk Bouncing For The Good Beginning – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Polish artist I found on Jamendo.
22:23 – Nick Tann – The Day After The Night Before – License Unknown – You can get Nick’s music on Bandcamp and he’s a fellow podcaster, he presents Is This Thing On Podcast. He’s a great singer too.
26:16 – Woodenbox With A Fist Full Of Fivers – Hang The Noose – License Unkown – Picked from Roderigo De Sa of the Cowboy Cantor podcast. He sent this one in for AMPed.
29:55 – BertycoX – The Signal – CC BY-ND Licensed – An electro artist I often seem to get promo emails off through Jamendo but to be fair he’s pretty good. I heard this on Jamendo radio and wanted to play it for you.
37:31 – LIVE SONG: “Long May You Run” by Neil Young. http://www.elyricsworld.com/long_may_you_run_lyrics_neil_young.html
43:08 – Silence – Cellule – CC BY-SA Licensed – Reportedly from Brussels according to Jamendo but their website is in Russian. You work it out.
46:45 – Roger Subirana Mata – The Point Of No Return – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – A Spanish composer and arranger doing some amazing work. His music always sounds epic and would be great for films I think.
57:25 – Sid der Liedermacher – Fuck Sony entertainment – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Can their be any language to sound angry in than German? A great song complaining about the licensing laws on the Internet that restrict listening to music by country.

Welcome to another Rathole Radio. This show was originally broadcast on Sunday February 6th thanks to my good friend Herbie Green, but it was pre-recorded. I was away in Brussels during the time of the show but managed to line up a special interview with Nerdcore legend MC Frontalot. I also played my newest song inspired by events in Egypt. I hope you enjoy the show.
00:00 – The Last Royals – Crystal Vases – License Unknown – off their eponymous EP, which came out in November on Ooh La La Records.
07:22 – The Black Atlantic – Heirloom – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – (recommended to me by Claire Pitt a long time ago, sorry for the delay) A very cool group from Holland with amazing harmonies and haunting sound.
12:22 – Mc Frontalot – I hate your blog – Copyright Licensed
16:20 – Interview guest: MC Frontalot
33:16 – Mc Hawking (feat Frontalot) – Bitchslap – Copyright Licensed
37:28 – Interview continued
48:35 – Mc Frontalot – First World Problem – Copyright Licensed
55:18 – Live Tune – Dan Lynch – Trouble In Egypt – CC BY-SA Licensed

Just when you thought it was safe… another Rathole Radio surfaces! This time I play my usual mix of eclectic music by the best independant and Creative Commons artists. We’ve got some Sourthern Rock, some electro, some jaunty jazz, some Nerdcore and plenty more besides. I also give my rendition of one of my favourite songs, “Mr Jones” by Counting Crows, complete with suspect guitar tuning and the occasional wrong chord. Well at least it proves it’s live. Hope you enjoy the ride.
00:00 – The Hall Monitors – Peggy Sue – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – This wild and crazy foursome from Washington D.C. bring their fuzzed out garage/R&B to the WFMU studios, where the halls are no longer safe!
04:08 – Polar Kid – Minus 34 – License Unknown – AKA Luke Miles from Brighton in the UK. He’s making some beautiful electronica and well worth checking out, slightly Boards Of Canada. You can get his latest EP “Norsk” from Bandcamp.
08:24 – Amelie – Get High – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – An Italian indie band I played some time ago. I was reminded by Morton on Identi.ca as he suggested their song “Shake You”, that didn’t do it for me but this next track on the album did. Funny how that happens.
16:00 – Fit and the Conniptions – Drinking On My Own Again – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – Quirky little tune from London singer-songwriter Wayne Myers. This was suggested by Yorvyk (AKA Steve) on email so thanks for that. I’m intruigued that it says “Produced by Wayne Myers and The Chicken”. Who’s the Chicken? We’ll probably never know. I was curious about the word conniption.
17:50 – Keyboard Rebel – Mondeo – CC BY-NC Licensed – Another track by this great MancheKeyboard Rebelster band. Will try to get in touch with them for an interview or a session.
24:18 – Deafinition – Influence – License Unknown – From Scrub Club Records, still planning to talk to the main man MaddHatter in future. He already agreed.
28:10 – The Black Beards – Honky Tonk Garrito Bar – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A Spanish rock group I found on Jamendo.
36:03 – Lar Clobsay – I Never Do What You Want – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Apparently a composer from France, plays piano, synth and guitar. Don’t know who the singer is. Not much detail available.
42:56 – LIVE TUNE – The classic “Mr Jones” by Counting Crows, or at least my rendition of it. Not an easy song to pull off with just guitar and vocal, it goes on quite a bit. I hope you enjoy it anyway.
49:45 – David Rovics – Song For Bradley Manning – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – This audio is taken from a video David recorded on his phone, he’s trying to raise money to record a decent studio version and make a video. If you’ve like to help you can head to DavidRovics.com and click the donate button.
60:17 – BURNOUT – Number2 – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Recommended by Kevie, I also love that their album is titled “On Strike Again”, quite ironic for a French band.
I also apologised for my absence on the next live show date (Feb 6th). There will be a special pre-recorded show with guest MC Frontalot.

The first Rathole Radio of 2011 and it went with a bang. Sadly I couldn’t do a live song after a 2hr gig with 20lb Sounds the night before. My voice was like a Shetland pony… a little horse, get it? Ok I’ll get my coat. I played my usual eclectic selection of music and had a good chat with everyone on IRC. I hope you enjoy the show.
00:00 – BazaarRoyale – Hard Times Celebrate – License Unknown
05:53 – RootsZombie – OldSchoolVibration – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed
10:11 – WillKnox – Cog In The Machine – License Unknown – His album TheMatador & TheAcrobat is available now on iTunes and Amazon. I picked this up from AMPed again via Peter Clitheroe. He recently met Will Knox in New York and recorded an interview with him which will be on his Suffolk & Cool podcast very soon, check it out.
16:08 – Lukus – The Shift – License Unknown – Emailed to me by Stewart Webb, an old flatmate of his apparently.
20:25 – Rattlin’ Bone – 16 Tons – License Unknown – A great London band with real soul. Heard this on AMPed and loved it. It’s a classic tune but this version rocks.

31:27 – TheDiscoballsProject – Toboggan – License Unknown

It’s Rathole time again and I’ve got something slightly different for you this episode. I was joined by our first returning guest, Jono Bacon of Ubuntu and Severed Fifth fame. He’s just released the second album which I actually mastered so you’ll have to forgive the love in. I think this album is a big advance on the previous offering though and I’m keen to know how living in California has affected things. We discuss his new live band and many other things, as well as playing some tracks. There’s also a live acoustic track from myself, some nerdcore, some dub, some electro and more. So if you’re not a metal fan don’t worry, there’s plenty of variety as always.
00:00 – MC Frontalot – First World Problem – License Unknown – From his latest album Zero Day. Thanks to Sleepynate for pointing this one out to me.
07:25 – Binarpilot – Geeks – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed from the new album Nordland, recently released. Scandinavian electro vibes.
15:11 – Severed Fifth – Politicold – CC BY-SA Licensed
20:29 – Interview with guest Jono Bacon of Severed Fifth
30:54 – Severed Fifth – The Blackening – CC BY-SA Licensed
34:53 – More chat with Jono
43:46 – Severed Fifth – End Of Days – CC BY-SA Licensed
50:03 – LIVE TRACK – “Sittin’ On A Dock Of The Bay” by Otis Redding. Another soul classic for you this time by one of my favourite singers, with one of my favourite backing bands. I also mentioned the sad death of Solomon Burke, for my money one of the best male voices the world has ever heard.
55:11 – Toulouse Skanking Foundation – Baba Dub By El Capitan – License Unknown
65:12 – Kagnee – Sick – CC BY-SA Licensed
