    Time for another slice of Rathole Radio. Broadcast live on Sunday July 8th 2012, this is episode 82 in the series. It features the usual mixture of eclectic music and a healthy dose of incoherent rambling from yours truly. I hope you enjoy it.

    • 00:00 – Kursed – Perfect mean – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Another track from French rockers Kursed. I’ve played them before but not for a long time. I was reminded of them by CC Hits recently. Very cool sound.
      • 07:10 – Dan Bull – Death Of ACTA – CC BY Licensed – The ever popular protest rapper who attempted a Creative Commons assault on the UK top 40 not so long ago. This song was in a collection of his old stuff and it seemed appropriate this week.
      • 10:41 – Anna Dagmar – Satellite – License Unknown – Picked up from the always wonderful Bugcast with Dave & Caroline. I bought this from CD Baby and there’s a load of Anna’s albums on there to check out.
        • 21:44 – Alex Hulme – Sparks – License Unknown – Saw Alex live again in Liverpool this week and he really is excellent. Nice guy too, we had a chat after his gig at the Vizea Sounds opening party. He game me a CD of his new EP on Cityscape Records that he’d intended to post. Personal delivery, how nice.
        • 23:53 – Diablo Swing Orchestra – Heroines – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Sweden’s finest operatic rockers at their best. Their style is hard to define, just the way I like things. I’ve played them many times on the show but so far not this song I don’t think.
          • 35:02 – Heifervescent – Let This Monkey Go – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – A new album has just been released and I’ve featured this artist many times before. Check it out, the album is excellent. There’s a 7 track taster on Jamendo and the full thing is available to buy.
          • 39:32 – Tenpenny Joke – Popcorn – CC BY-SA Licensed – Another track from Aussie rockers Tenpenny Joke. I’ve played them a load of times but they’re great. Not played this track so far either. Check out their album Ambush On All Sides on Jamendo. Nearly every track is a corker.
            • 46:01 – Felixjd – Little Dreams – CC BY Licensed – Another track from this Italian dance-meister. I’m mixing my languages here, what’s Italian for master? Masterino! Either way. Enjoy the slap bass as I did. I think it may be sampled rather than played but either way, top stuff.
              • 51:47 – I Am Not Lefthanded – Spark – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Do I really need to tell you who these guys are by now? They’ve been on the show, they’ve played on the stage at a Rathole Roadshow. They’re great and you should get a copy of their new album from the website.
                • 61:48 – We Are FM – God Save The DJ – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Another track from these Dutch dance/rock dons. Hard to describe the sound of this. Definitely lots of electro in there but also punky elements and twist of industrial. From the album Season One.
                • Big thanks to Michael Hodgins for his Paypal donation and all the wonderful Flatter peeps as usual. I couldn’t do this without you.

                    A slightly delayed show this time. Apologies for that. I was busy on Sunday watching England lose on penalties in a major football tournament. I’m not sure why I bothered as we’ve done that a thousand times before. Anyway, enough of that. I played my usual eclectic mix of music and had a good time, I hope you have a good time listening

                    • 00:00 – We Are FM – Dance – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A track I picked up from CCHits.net, high energy start to the show from this Dutch artist.
                      • 05:54 – John Sotter ~ Acoustic Warrior – Fire Wind – CC BY-SA Licensed – Hailing from South California John has been travelling the world
                      • 09:10 – Fresh Body Shop – Enjoy The Apple – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – Another slice of industrial goodness from this French artist. I’ve played them many times before and they never disappoint.
                      • Article about CCHits on Creative Commons UK blog.

                        • 17:25 – Dick Limerick Academy – Nob’eds – CC BY-NC Licensed – Another track from Liverpool rappers Merseycide. I love the track but wasn’t sure of the lyrics at first, until I realised it’s all tongue in cheek. Hence the phrase “I’m a nob’ed” hehe
                        • 21:04 – Squeaky Chairs Band – Misery Loves Company – CC BY Licensed – 4 lads from Athens, Ohio in the US making great music and squeaking some chairs apparently.
                          • 29:59 – Lorenzo’s Music – Chocolate and Cocaine – CC BY-SA Licensed – I’ve played these guys many times over the 3 years of Rathole Radio and I think they’re fantastic. Their music is always so well recorded and a pleasure to listen to. Check them out, you can thank me later.
                          • 33:56 – Mindthings – Sounds From The Past – CC BY-SA Licensed – Not much into for be found on this artist it seems. Maybe you can do better than me, if so feel free to email me. I can tell you that they’re from Bordeaux in France. There you go, I do know something after all.
                            • 41:45 – Alex Hulme – The Start – License Unknown – From his new EP of the same name which is out on CityScape records. You can get it from Bandcamp. Alex is a really talented young artist and a nice lad. Check him out live if you get the chance.
                              • 46:32 – ghost2000 – The Aliens Are Here – License Unknown –  From their email – ‘ghost2000 a indie hip hop duo. From the UK but have travelled about europe, France, Italy, Germany, Spain…also done some USA stuff Formed in the UK, having been in signed bands, the album planet la la’under a new world order, the aliens are here is the single’
                                • 51:20 – No Dreams – Just To Be OK – CC BY Licensed – I heard this one via Jamendo radio and liked it. The artist is from Montevido in Uruguay.
                                  • 61:35 – 20lb Sounds – Jimmy Carter (Live acoustic session) – CC BY-NC Licensed – This was recorded for a podcast that’s jet to be published. We recorded it with the guys over at Vizea Sound in Liverpool. Thanks to Joe and Jason for helping.

                                      Normal service continues this week as I played an eclectic selection of the best independent music on the web and also chatted about all kinds of rubbish. I attempted a live song but broke a string halfway through and had to abort. So instead I’ve embedded the last live acoustic video I did on YouTube for your listening pleasure. Hope it makes up for it. Enjoy the show

                                      • 00:00 – Edward Khil – Trolololol – License Unknown – This is a classic 1970’s Russian pop song. The original song was censored because the lyrics were deemed unsuitable by the state. So Khil just made random noises and removed all the words. It was rediscovered in recent years and has become an Internet phenomena. Apparently it’s sometimes known as the “Russian Rickroll”. He died just recently.
                                        • 06:09 – Panther Solo – Lap Quilting With Georgia Bonesteel  – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – This was sent to me by friend of the show Adrian McEwen and it’s actually by a mutual acquaintance of ours. Check out Paul’s music at the website and grab the album Buff Low Noise, it’s very good.
                                        • 09:43 – Lightnin Seed – Stone Root – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – I heard this on CCHits recently and enjoyed it. More info.
                                          • 17:24 – You Me Tree – Lights – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Friends of the show, the guys played last year at the 2011 roadshow and went down a storm. They are now called You Me Tree and released a self titled EP on May 18th. This is the third track from it. Expect to hear more in the coming weeks.
                                          • 21:30 – Merseycide – Richard – CC BY-NC Licensed – Also known as the Dick Limerick Academy on Soundcloud. These lads hail from Liverpool in case you couldn’t tell and I have to thank Graham Holland for sending them my way. After hearing some of the tracks I realised I’d actually seen them live doing a support slot last year.
                                            • 30:42 – Songs Of Trees – Mister Thanatos – License Unknown – An artist submission this one. Kevin Osborne sent release my way and apparently in Greek mythology Thanatos is the Grim Reaper. Which gives the song some extra weight. Find more info at the Sounds Unique website.
                                            • 33:32 – errnois – happiness – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – The opening track from the last CCHits.net. A strange and experimental piece of music that I found interesting. Read info.
                                              • 43:32 – Bryyn – Lettace In My Pants (reprise) – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – I played a track by this Swiss artist, careful how you say that, last week. I heard this one via Jamendo and the title intrigued me. Love the mention of Charlie Sheen in the lyrics too.
                                              • 48:54 – LIVE SONG – 20lb Sounds – “Change” (acoustic) — Aborted due to broken string mid song, gah! Probably for the best after hearing it back. Man it sounded rough. Apologies. Try the video below instead:

                                                • 53:35 – Radio Star – A Common Tale – CC BY-SA Licensed – Heard this via Jamendo radio and liked it a lot. The vocal style reminds me a bit of Robert Smith from The Cure in parts. There’s almost no information about this band on Jamendo so if you know any more please pass it on. Their profile is managed by Isotope Records who are based in Australia but has no links on it.
                                                  • 62:12 – I Am Not Lefthanded – Falls To Me – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – From the new album The Fire & The Sigh which you can find at their website. The guys have relocated to California and seem to be doing really well. They’ve currently got a Kickstarter campaign up to fund their trip to play the North By Northeast Festival.

                                                      After the live show last time it’s back to normal service. I played an eclectic mix of music and performed a live cover song by the band Cream. I also rambled a lot and I think the heat melted my brain, so it might be even more disorganised than usual. I hope you enjoy the show anyway.

                                                      • 00:00 – Juanitos – Sai-k-delic Party – CC BY Licensed – More groovy beats from these French fun makers. I heard this on The Bugcast and liked it a lot.
                                                        • 06:03 – Binary Zero – Dirty Clouds – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – A DJ/producer from Glasgow, I loved this bit of electronic goodness.
                                                        • 09:15 –  The Monster Brothers – Sack Of Bones – CC BY-SA Licensed – from Lugano, Switzerland. This one is from Jamendo and I don’t have a load of information about the artist. Check out their website for more.
                                                          • 16:47 – Sophie Ballamy – My Friend, The Moon – License Unknown – Sophie is a friend of Thom Morecroft and got in touch with me via Facebook. She emailed this track and I really enjoyed it. You can get her EP titled “My Friend, The Moon” on Amazon and iTunes.
                                                          • 20:04 – Bryyn – Laws of Physics – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A great track I heard via CCHits.net and their new website. Another Swiss artist. I’m on a swiss roll tonight… ok I’ll get my coat.
                                                            • 29:32 – Raphaël Chassigneux – Marina la lama – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – A lovely bit of Latin music to welcome in the warm weather right now in Liverpool. These guys are from France.
                                                            • 30:57 – The Stirrups – Best Times – CC BY-NC_SA Licensed – From Montevideo, Uruguay these guys have a great classic indie sound. Reminds me a bit of The Strokes.
                                                              • 39:11 – Tijana Bass – Face Of Freedom – License Unknown – Another one from Chuck D’s Slamjamz.com label. A bit of drum and bass this time. Bring it on.
                                                              • 45:53 – LIVE SONG – Listener’s choice (kind of) – My haphazard version of “White Room” by Cream.
                                                                • 51:38 – Sam Page – Lottery – License Unknown – An artist submission as this was emailed to me by Sam. I really love the sounds and production on this track. The vocals reminded me a little of Beck in places.
                                                                  • 61:28 – Emerald Park – Reality Bites – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – I’ve played this band plenty of times but I never get tired of hearing their music. Probably one of the best CC artists out there right now. This song is also beautifully produced.
                                                                  • Thanks to everyone who’s clicked the Flattr buttons to support the show recently.

Hear live sets from Thom Morecroft, 20lb Sounds, P’Chenga and The Corinthians. I have to give a big thanks to Andrew Bates our recording engineer, Jon Hall our live engineer, Neil Morrin for his excellent video work and Adrian McEwen for the audience bot, Bubblino and keeping us in touch with the chat room.

                                                                      The evening kicked off with the fabulous Thom Morecroft, accompanied by Elle on vocals and Chris on percussion. I apologise for not knowing their surnames and will endeavour to find out more. Enjoy Thom’s set.

                                                                      • 02:29 – Thom Morecroft – Moon Moon Shake It – License Unknown

                                                                        • 16:42 – 20lb Sounds – Change – CC BY-SA Licensed

Nicky Talent, Kyle The Unlikely, Little Dread and of course the main man Sonny on the beats. They tore the roof off with their very own brand of dub hop. Everyone was dancing. I don’t have all the track names here so please bear with me. Sorry.

I played a wide selection of music as always, and I even managed to squeeze in a live acoustic track. Lots of chilled out tunes this time for some reason, so put your feet up and enjoy.

                                                                                • 00:00 – Juanitos – Soul Africa – CC BY-SA Licensed – Juanitos is an internationally-minded SoulJazz inspired group from Chambry, France. They’ve been making all kindsa exotic beats since 1991. Soul Africa is an irresistible Afrobeat & reggae-leaning funk album released in 2010 on Jamendo.
                                                                                  • 06:58 – P’Chenga – What’s The Difference? – License Unknown – Friends of mine and fellow Rathole Roadshow artists. I wanted to share a track of theirs. This is an old live recording that I know the lads aren’t massively happy with but it’s the best thing we have at the moment. They have a new drummer and will have new better recorded material soon.
                                                                                  • 11:17 – Secret Archives Of The Vatican – Blue Moons – CC BY-NC Licensed – A friend told me recently there wasn’t enough drum & bass in the show lately. This is a nod in their direction. Secret Archives Of The Vatican AKA Vince Millet is a giant in the CC music scene. Check out Broken Drum Records if you haven’t already.
                                                                                  • Writing On The Wall Piracy event, I’m chairing the discussion. Thursday May 3rd at The Attic in Parr St, Liverpool. £4 entry. CC, ORG and Ian Prowse.

                                                                                    • 22:38 – Dan Bull – Sharing Is Caring – CC Zero Licensed – UK protest rapper Dan Bull has released this latest single. You can hear a bit of Eminem influence in this Facebook track. Friend of the show Tim Dobson has been involved in promoting this and it’s an attempt to get a CC track into the UK charts. They’ve done 10 remixes and if you buy each one it counts towards the same chart entry. Madness. I suppose it does show how pointless the charts are these days ultimately.
                                                                                    • 26:34 – 20lb Sounds – Jimmy Carter – CC BY-SA Licensed – Whoops, how did this get in there? Just thought I’d remind you of this track in the build up to the Rathole Roadshow in Liverpool on Friday May 11th. FREE EP AVAILABLE.
                                                                                      • 34:54 – Electronic Ping Pong Orchestra – Eternal Hope – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – My good friend Bob and his project Electronic Ping Pong Orchestra. I like this bit of minimal electro and it’s off a CD he kindly gave me.
                                                                                      • 38:08 – Damscray – Saria Bride – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – An interesting bit of trip hop influenced music. I’ve played this artist before but I still don’t know a terrific amount about them.
                                                                                      • 46:00 – LIVE TRACK – “Nobody Knows You When You’re Down And Out”. I’ve played this before but it’s a blues standard and I love it, so I figured I’d do it again.

                                                                                        • 51:10 – Ex-Friendly – Simply Bootieful – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – A nice piece of laid back soul from Free Music Archive. It’s a bit long but it’s a great relaxed tune. Has a classic soul sound and I’m reminded of Al Green in parts by the vocal.
                                                                                        • Next show will be the roadshow live on Friday May 11th @ 8pm UK. 3 hours plus of great live music. Come and get involved.

                                                                                          63:37 – Tenpenny Joke – Never Enough – CC BY-SA Licensed – This is actually 2 tracks by Aussie rockers Tenpenny Joke, I’ve played them before. The acoustic picking bit that’s mixed in at the end is listed as a separate track called Shadow In The Glass. You can get this on Jamendo and it’s from the album Ambush On All Sides which I recommend.

                                                                                          Donations: A massive thanks to Paul Platt, Paul Hargrave & Armin Krauss for contributing.

This time we have guests too as I interviewed Sonny & Colin from The Corinthians in a local pub. It was chaotic but amazing. I hope you enjoy it. There’s also a selection of eclectic tunes to keep you entertained.

                                                                                            • 00:00 – C. bass .t.n – Star Shift – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A track I heard via Jamendo dance radio and I liked the slightly industrial synth sound mixed with a more house beat. A German artist. This is taken from the 2009 album Transparent Moments.
                                                                                              • 07:22 – The Dopamines – Paid In Full – License Unknown – A nice bit of melodic punk sent in by listener Mark Horsley.

A chaotic chat at Ye Olde Cracke pub in Liverpool. Contains copious swearing so close your ears if you’re easily offended. A big thanks also to Rob The Anti-Fascist Manager and Cyril the dog.

                                                                                                  • 25:25 – The Corinthians – “The Hot One feat Nicky Talent” – License Unknown

Come down, you need to hear Thom’s voice live believe me. This track is available via Soundcloud.
                                                                                                      • 48:34 – Paul Platt – “Everything” – License Unknown – I chatted to Paul on email and he sent me some original tracks. I really like this one. Great bluesy guitar sound and an interesting beat. He says:

It’s a blog where he’ll be posting new solo stuff he’s working on. It features some different styles and the tracks will build up as he goes. Check it out..

I got the EP Computer Crime via email recently and with that name I expected electro. I obviously missed the part where it said “metal greetings from Russia” though. They hail from St Petersburg and this EP has been picked up by Copro Records in the UK. Find our more about them via wikipedia.

We’re not quite over he hill yet you young whipper snappers. Get off our lawn! I played my usual eclectic mix of music, conjured the image of Sir David Attenborough naked (pass the mind bleach) and performed a live tune. A pretty regular show then. Hope you enjoy it.

                                                                                                            • 00:00 – Black Bones – Rock N Roll– CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A cracker from Black Bones, the Italian pirate rockers I played recently. I liked the raw punk feel of this tune and it seems to be one of the few non-Pirate themed songs off their album Pirates Of The Coast.
                                                                                                              • 06:49 – Symphony Of Science – The Greatest Show On Earth – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – I was reminded of this site by CCHits this week. I played “A Glorious Dawn” some time ago but there’s a whole collection of these tracks. They’ve taken recordings of popular scientists and auto-tuned them into songs. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea but this is nicely done. Listen out for David Attenborough and Richard Dawkins.

Russian alt-rock/metal band. Don’t know a lot more about them but it sounds good. From their self-titled album.
                                                                                                              • The Corinthians will be joining us for a chat very soon.

                                                                                                                • 18:48 – Loudog – Music – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – A German reggae band who I’ve played on the show before, but not this song. I heard this tune on The Bugcast some time ago and then it cropped up on CCHits this week. I suspect that Dave Lee submitted it. He gets everywhere.
                                                                                                                • 22:13 – L’Fabrik – On Arrose – CC BY Licensed – Some French rap for you. It’s been a while since I played any. No idea what they’re saying for the most part, it could be rdiculously offensive but hopefully not. Nice beats. Suggested to me by listener Simon Vass. Released 2009, on Jamendo.
                                                                                                                  • 29:37 – Paul and Storm – Live – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – I saw Paul & Storm live in Manchester supporting Jonathan Coulton. Apparently they wrote this tune during a challenge to write a song like JoCo. JonTheNiceGuy, creator of CCHits was sat next to me at that gig BTW.
                                                                                                                  • 33:15 – YACHT – Shangri-La (instrumental) – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – The opening track from the last CCHits weekly show and man it’s a cracker. Beautiful bit of instrumental music. It’s doing really well on CCHits and getting loads of votes.
                                                                                                                  • My friend and cohort Andrew Bates is now doing a music show on Halton Community Radio. You can download his first show right here. It’s well worth a listen.

                                                                                                                      • 50:12 – LIVE SONG – My rendition of “Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town” by Pearl Jam. One of my all time favourite bands. Hope the Eddie Vedder impression stands up.
                                                                                                                        • 54:21 – Overcolored – Entering The Rat Race – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – Polish instrumental rock I heard on Jamendo. Worth checking out their album.
                                                                                                                        • 64:13 – The Beards – You Should Consider Having Sex With A Bearded Man – License Unknown – The crazy Australian beard loving band are back. This track was actually released last year but I just came across it. Check out the video it’s great!

I must have felt more chatty or something, hard to see how that’s possible. This was broadcast on Mother’s Day here in the UK but I didn’t have a special song for that. Instead I performed a folk song to celebrate St Patrick’s Day on Saturday. I hope you enjoy the show.

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.

                                                                                                                                                • 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 – 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

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.

I missed the live show on Sunday unfortunately due to exhaustion, so I recorded this show offline instead. I skipped the live song but I did manage to cram in a bumper selection of eclectic music as always. Normal service will be resumed next time I promise.

Love this song and it’s energy. Very well produced too.
                                                                                                                                                            • 07:25 – Dumbo Get’s Mad – Marmalade Kids – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – Another track from CC netlabel Bad Panda Records, I’ve mentioned them a lot. This track is from the album Elephants At The Door released in Feb 2011.
                                                                                                                                                            • 11:41 – Zoe Mulford – Just Before I Go – License Unknown – Another one I heard via Graham Holland. I actually saw Zoe performing with Lorelei Loveridge at the View Two gallery in Liverpool back in 2010. It was one of Graham’s Liverpool Acoustic nights and I was really impressed.
                                                                                                                                                              • 19:20 – vvsmusic – Greensleeves – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – From Hamburg in Germany, VVS is a composer and arranger who makes music for films and much more besides. He’s also a software developer and designer. A multi-talented guy it seems. This arrangement of the well known classic Greensleeves is currently number 2 in the Jamendo top 100.
                                                                                                                                                              • 22:15 – Bobo In White Wooden Houses – I Wanna Keep You On My Side – License Unknown – Thanks to Moggers87 for this one. Another German artist, lots of those lately. The website has lots of pictures and other things but no real biog or info on the band that I can see. However, they sound great and I hope to find out more.
                                                                                                                                                                • 30:58 – Black Bones – Pirates Of The Coast – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – I have to thank my Linux Outlaws co-host Fab for bringing this to my attention. He got it via a listener who I think heard it via Dave & Caroline at The Bugcast. All very convoluted. Black Bones are a pirate metal band from Piacenza, Italy. This is the opening track off their album of the title. It’s available from Jamendo.
                                                                                                                                                                • 34:56 – Black Bones – We’ll Rise Again – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – The second track off the album Pirates Of The Coast but it leads in from the first one so I wanted to play it.
                                                                                                                                                                • I was on TuxJam with @kevie, check it out!

                                                                                                                                                                  • 40:18 – felixjd – _make_believe_ – CC BY Licensed – A funky house track I picked up from Jamendo. It’s by an Italian artist who I can’t tell you a whole lot more about but it sounds good. They’re from Milan and there’s a stack of albums to dig through on Jamendo. I found a MySpace link but not much else. If you find out more let me know.
                                                                                                                                                                  • 44:56 – vitaminsforyou – Six O’Clock Whispers – CC BY-NC-ND Licensed – This one was submitted to AMPed by Idyllic Music. Nice bit of electro. You can get this on Archive.org
                                                                                                                                                                    • 56:06 – William Michael Dillon – Black Robes & Lawyers – License Unknown – Heard this one via fellow Liverpool podcaster Graham Holland. A great track and it’s good to play some blues again. Read Dillon’s story from his site, wrongly imprisoned for 27 years he was cleared by DNA evidence in 2008. Now he makes music and campaigns against injustice.
                                                                                                                                                                    • Donations: No donations to mention this time but thank you to all the wonderful people who supported the show via Flattr!

Great tune. Check out Tab Benoit’s website and his new album Medicine.

Lovely slice of industrial sounding electro. Thanks to GamerChick02 for the tip.

They’ve obviously been listening to some early Metallica I think, and that’s no bad thing.

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.

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.

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.
