July 15, 2013While you may not have heard the last Awkward Movements show go out on NTS due to some technical problems, it definitely happened and is now up for sharing. Stream or download last Monday’s show below, complete with track list. Highlights from the new Mark Fell which opens the two hours, Powell on Liberation Technologies, Keith Fullerton Whitman back on vinyl…
June 30, 2013Wicked two hour session from Paul Ackroyd last Monday for Awkward Movements on NTS. Proper happy that the Okkyung Lee got a spin – her new album on Editions Mego is equally heavy and intense as it is moving, really recommend checking that one out. Other than that too much quality to shout out. Download or the stream the show…
June 17, 2013To be honest I’m still suffering a bit of an electronica hangover following last Monday’s Awkward Movements show on NTS. Balanced out by the likes of Robert Hood, Aybee and MGUN, we still managed to delve deep enough in to our collection of newly dropped twisted and analogue electronic sounds. Really nice spaced-out jazz chaos from Metamorphosis under his birth-name…
June 9, 2013Didn’t even realise Paul Ackroyd had this much house in the collection, let alone in one bag at any given time. Two hours of heat from Paul, with the dancefloor bits balanced out with tribal folk and electronic experimentation as well. Scroll down below for full track list as well as stream and download for the show. Next Awkward Movements…
May 20, 2013Archive from last week’s Awkward Movements show on NTS went up over the weekend, which you can stream or download below, complete with full track list. Editions Mego featured heavily with bits from Evol, Ensemble Skalectric and CoH. A recent rediscovery from T++ has been a personal highlight of late, the new Laurel Halo and something from the Juan Atkins…
May 8, 2013Seriously heavy session from Paul Ackroyd aka Kamikaze last week for the fortnightly Awkward Movements show on NTS. Despite some studio issues with no monitoring, it came out sounding a bit peaky but dope notnhteless, some proper vibes selections getting a rawer edge due to the fact. Highlights from Ramesh on Pharaway sounds, Incite Hu, Steve Summers on L.I.E.S. and blind…
April 26, 2013Something special from Metalheadz, in remembrance of Valerie Olusanya aka Kemistry, who passed away fourteen years ago yesterday. As a founding member of Metalheadz and one-half of drum ‘n’ bass duo Kemistry & Storm, Kemistry is owed a great debt from the many producers she dropped, punters who’s heads she blew and the electronic music scene who’s boundaries she pushed.…
April 22, 2013Sometimes you got to work for it, other times it’s too easy. Last Monday’s Awkward Movements show on NTS left us spoiled for choice, the culmination of a stunning few months of new music to our ears (some just pressed and others we were plenty late on) that needed sharing. New Demdike Stare series definitely a cause for celebration, the…
April 11, 2013Bit of a take-2 here from Paul Ackroyd aka Kamikaze on the last Awkward Movements show for NTS. The mic had inexplicably left the studio, and as a result last week’s live show was a purely musical affair. With an edit earlier this week he’s since re-uploaded as it was meant to be heard, full vocals and all. Properly dope…
April 1, 2013Playing a bit of catch-up here, finally getting the March archive together just as the first of the April offering is about to go out live. Two shows here both from March, with Paul Ackroyd holding down 4/3 (scroll straight to the bottom for that) and Keith P in session for two hours 18/3. Paul’s going live from NTS studios…
