Tiny Circles - Wolf People


Coldest Morning Light - The Pharmacy

Record Store Day - 16th April 2011

Get up early on Saturday 16th April, go to your local independent record store and queue up to get your hands on some exclusive vinyl. Releases vary a little by country but this year it looks like there are going to be around 250 slabs of wax to get your hands on. And judging by the prices last year, exclusive and cheap don't go hand in hand.

Last year in the UK the Blur 7" seemed to be the thing that people started queueing at about 6am for(and many were on Ebay super quickly). I'll be hoping to get my mitts on the Bad Brains "Pay to Cum" 7", Deep Purple "Hush" 7" and The International Submarine Band "Safe at Home" MONO LP w/ bonus 7" Single (if it gets a UK release). I'm sure there will be other bits and pieces that tempt me on the day too, better start saving those pennies.

Whatever your poison, get round your local store and give them your support, they need it.

Tracklistings for transmissions 1 and 2

For those who asked, I have added tracklistings for transmissions 1 and 2 on the posts. Check out what you might have missed when we ommitted song titles or just plain mumbled. Also if you haven't listened yet, this will fill you in on the eclectic stew we play.

In the bag

Transmission 3 is in the bag and will be available in about a week, add a bit of jazz, hip hop, Brazilian psych and kids theme tunes to the usual mix and you've got an even more eclectic stew this time round.

Now in toy shops - collect 'em all

Transmission 2

Here it is folks, our second outing, not quite so much beer and wine imbibed this time, doesn't make it any more slick though. Another two hours of unpolished diamonds await you, best 2 hours of sounds you'll hear all week - guaranteed. Nothing like blowing your own trumpet, modesty's for suckers. Keep on keepin' on - thee PVC. Download here
