November Podcast

Apologies for the minimal write-up this month but I really should be writing essays and whatnot...


Listen to the podcast here:

Podcast link is in the sidebar, the Mediafire download (21MB MP3) is here and some writing you probably won't read is below.

1. Jesper Dahlback - Gubbis
A tech house gem from Sweden's Jesper Dahlback, cousin of John Dahlback who you may remember from the DFA1979 remix album amongst other things. If you like what you hear then head down to the Plug on 5th December where he'll be DJing alongside Sebastian Leger. Unless you know me, that is, in which case come to DQ for my 21st...

2. Renaissance Man - Spraycan
More Swedish tech house here from production duo Renaissance Man (pictured) - the title track from their excellent Spraycan EP released earlier this year. They've also remixed the following track:

3. Noob & Brodinski - Peanuts Club
Brodinski (as featured on last month's podcast) teams up with fellow Frenchman Noob for some bleepy techy goodness on 'Peanuts Club'.

4. Digitalism - ZDRLT (Rewind)
Emerging from the depths of their Second World War bunker in Hamburg, Digitalism succeed where most fail in blending indie rock with electronica on 'ZDRLT' - their own rework of 'Zdarlight' from debut album Idealism.

5. Erol Alkan & Boys Noize - Waves
A huge collaboration from Germany's foremost electro producer Boys Noize and London DJ Erol Alkan. Pianist Chilly Gonzales has produced a unique rework of 'Waves' which, in Alkan's words, aims to 'translate a club ‘banger’ into something your grandfather could get with'. Highly recommended:
