I thought briefly about trying another "brought to you by the letter whatever" show this morning but then there was a whole bunch of interesting new releases in the mail so I scrubbed that and just did my usual random mess o' sounds. What's new? Well there's a live Cinematic Orchestra CD that sounds pretty awesome from what I've heard. Also Kassin +2 which completes the +2 trilogy (the others are Moreno +2 and Domenico +2). Excellent stuff from Brazil. On the downside, I was trying to plug the upcoming Meat Beat Manifesto show but I was under the mistaken impression that Witchman was a Jack Dangers side project and ID'd as such several times on the air. But it ain't. Damn, I hate when that happens.
On an only slightly related note, while I've been writing this, I've been watching an hourlong collection of videos from Yo! MTV Raps from 82-88. Killah! Beasties. Kool Moe Dee. Grandmaster Flash. LL Cool J. Salt & Pepa. Eric B & Rakim. There's a whole bunch of these hours running on the usually worthless MTV Hits network this month. My only complaints: too short; no Run-DMC; no De La Soul. (ETA: both showed up in the 88-89 show)
On a completely unrelated note: check out Jellypress. The tagline ("old recipes, modern life") sums it up. Good stuff.
