October 14, 2013From the man behind the Radio Olympics – over twelve hours of music from all competing countries – we now have The Dead Albatross Music Prize. Paul Ackroyd aka Kamikaze has polled our most respected music heads and created the twenty album list for the inaugural event, which can be followed here: http://www.deadalbatross.com/ An alternative to once quality but now…
October 7, 2013Had a blast doing last Monday’s NTS Awkward Movements show, as always big ups to the crew at NTS station and to those who locked. Full track list below along with the recorded archive of the two hour session. New stuff from regulars Tim Hecker, Oneohtrix Point Never, Torn Hawk and Mordant Music, as well as joints from Bill Callahan…
September 23, 2013Stream or download last Monday’s Awkward Movements show on NTS below, which, I’ve got to say is some fantastic radio from Paul Ackroyd. Some proper listening here, with a mix between the headphone sessions and play-out interesting bits, don’t sleep on it. Awkward Movements will be back for our usual slot on NTS in a fortnight’s time, 2-4pm, Monday the…
September 11, 2013Surprisingly (after our last effort guesting together), Martin Peralta aka Ghost and myself were invited back to FBi radio for a one-night takeover of Andrew Maxam’s Liquid Electric show. There’s something nice about playing records and having them played to you from someone you’ve only met once before. Doing it live on FM radio makes it even better, like an…
September 9, 2013Too much good music and not enough radio show. A mixture of tunes that I’ve been wanting to play for weeks as well as forthcoming and brand new joints on cassette, CD and wax, last Monday’s Awkward Movements show on NTS was two hours of track dropped tunes that sound like nothing else. Big ups all who locked. Kicking off…
September 5, 2013I had the pleasure of stepping back in to FBi radio last Friday night, guesting with Martin Peralta on Liquid Electric. Hosted by Andrew Maxam over the last six years, Liquid Electric has been an essential mainstay on Sydney FM radio, evolving with and dictating sounds for new producers and styles. In line with the station’s creed, Maxam’s been pushing known…
August 26, 2013Archive now up for last Monday’s Awkward Movements Show on NTS, stream or download below. Big ups Paul Ackroyd for this one, loads of heavy tunes that we’ve had on rotation as well as the usual mix of unknown tracks we’ve not come across. Next show’s going out from via NTS radio in about a weeks time, 2-4pm Monday the…
August 21, 2013Can two tracks be an EP? Probably not, but who really cares, as long as the music’s good, a sentiment that can also be applied to the amount of wordy coverage given to Helena Hauff recently. Appearing on Blackest Ever Black’s run Krokodilo Tapes cassette imprint, as well as her debut 12″ Actio Reacto on Werkdiscs, much hype around her production has…
August 12, 2013Last Monday’s Awkward Movements show on NTS was a proper mixed bag; pure vibes in the form of bass music from Itinerant Dubs, Gorgon Sound and Ipman & Killawatt right to the other end of the musical spectrum with art-house tape work from Noah Creshevsky (pictured above) and a cassette release from Gabor Lazar on Last Foundation. Enough drums and…
July 29, 2013Quality radio as always from Paul Ackroyd aka Kamikaze, going live from the NTS headquarters in Dalston for Awkward Movements last week. Stream or download the full show below, complete with track list. The next Awkward Movements show will be going out in a week’s time, Monday 5th of August 2-4pm on NTS radio.
