Two months ago I had the esteemed pleasure of playing for the peerless* internet radio site (for lack of a better word?) ultra wizard sword. I started at around 8 PM EST on a Friday night (standard UWS start time), and expected to play for a couple hours, three at most. I didn’t really have…
Coming soon…Apartment [Three] NCW – Pharoah And The Goose
What with summer time being a bit of a lull period in music while everyone gets their holidays and festivals on come September it’s gonna be time to get things rolling again on all things Apartment. NCW, the man behind the first release, returns with a somewhat different beast of a record. Jazz and deep…
Gary’s Gang this Saturday plus radio today, the 26th.
Our monthly soiree returns to the U Bar up in Christchurch this Saturday the 28th. Myself and Pete from MN To That will be taking care of the bar area while Lunar Disko’s 2 wannabe scousers Barry Donovan and Shane O’ Meara will look after the basement. Free in as always, kicking off around 9pm….
The Weekend That Was
It’s kinda impossible to talk about the weekend just gone without mentioning that elephant in the room, Bloc 2012. As everyone already knows Baselogic have since gone into administration and it is most likely going to be quite some time – if ever – before the truth comes out about how Bloc managed to fail…
New Mix: DNTO Podcast #18
Mix time again, this time the lovely chaps at Do Not Tape Over have asked me to contribute to their series, following on from sets by the likes of Scott Ferguson and Chicago Skyway, so some nice ol company there. There’s some new stuff from Aroy Dee, Jitterbug and Tr One and also the opening…
Free Rotation, Tr One and NCW gigs.
After my first trip to Baskerville Hall last summer there was little chance that a return trip to Free Rotation wouldn’t be on the cards. A festival that is as much a massive house party than anything else, for those who like their house, techno and bass music at the deeper end of the scale…
Some new(ish) records I should have posted about at least a month ago.
Things have been super slack around here of late and it sorta seems like an odd time for me to be doing a records post as I’ve had possibly my quietest month for record purchases in many a year, but it’s also been a while since I’ve talked about any so there is some stuff…
Lerosa on Apartment, new Jitterbug on Uzuri, Gary’s Gang this Saturday…
I’ve been slack over the last month with posts and for today it’s just a quick reminder on a couple of new ISM related releases and this Saturday’s party in Dublin. First up, in a stunning show of ineptitude I never posted on here that the Lerosa 12″ No Mad Rush came out at the…
Guest Mix: Amir Alexander Celebrates the Release of Argot 001
Amir Alexander has been banging out tracks for a wide variety of underground labels: Hakim Murphy’s Machining Dreams, Vanguard Sound, Spider and Lola’s Plan B Recordings, and now the debut release on the new label Argot out of Chicago called “Gutter Flex”. “Gutter Flex” lives up to its name, with grimy beats and basslines aplenty….
Guest Mix: Scott Ferguson ISM Mix Vol 12 + New Ferrispark Releases
Our man Scotty F has probably dropped more mixes for us than any of the people who actually write for ISM at this point. That doesn’t stop each one from being a special moment though, he is just that kind of deejay. Now that his web radio show Below the Green is in retirement, you…
