Rollin’ With The 9s – Part 3: Jimmy Monsta Funk


Following on from Paul and myself’s offerings, Jimmy Monsta Funk gives us a stellar selection from his own stacks of wax, closing off Rollin’ With The 9s strong. Beginning in 1929 he manages to go across jazz, pop, funk, electronic, house and pirate radio. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, the dude is crazy deep with records.…

Rollin’ With The 9s – Part 2: Keith P


If you missed yesterday’s post here’s where we’re at: end of year lists are dumb. Kamikaze, Monsta Funk and myself are instead using the bandwidth to pull records from previous decades ends. Hence Rollin’ With The 9s was born. This was originally going to be one mix tied together but given the fact that the mixes are designed to be…

Rollin’ With The 9s – Part 1: Kamikaze


Instead of giving you yet another yearly roundup (let’s face it, no one cares about these except record stores pushing old stock, and most of them went out first week of December somehow) we’ve taken the end of 2019 as a chance to re-examine the final year of previous decades as well. Rollin’ With The 9s gives Kamikaze, Jimmy Monsta…

NCHX – ‘B·O·M’ LP [Plastic Horse]


A new LP drop from NCHX (aka NOCHEXXX aka CHXFX aka Dave Henson) this week brings further proof to my working theory that some of the year’s best workings always come in the final month. Delivering on the Nochexxx ethos of masterfully constructed experimental bashings, B·O·M gives us a full-length release of thoughtfully placed influences of techno, rave, acid-house and…

Late Night Gardeners Modular Set up

Late Night Gardener


It’s been a minute since we’ve been on here – a change in day jobs is mostly to blame with partial responsibility lending itself to a desire for a more analogue life. Which, as a sentence and sentiment, has surprised me in it’s appropriateness as a segway in to what we wanted to share. Coming out of period where live…

Hugo Bighuggs


Isn’t the internet great? It lets me keep track of guys you grew up with doing insanely cooler stuff than I am. Hugo Bighuggs was a mate of mine back in the day who I hadn’t heard from in over a decade until he randomly dropped in to one of my social media feeds a couple of weeks back. Known…

All My Records Episode 2


About three months after we started this I finally found some time New Years Eve morning to record the next instalment of All My Records. A quick calculation suggests that at sixteen to twenty records every three months it’ll take us about sixty years to get through all the shelves. We’ll try and pick up the pace a bit perhaps.…
