_________________________________________

Krossie & I tonight, with another attempt at doing our annual best-of-year show. Hopefully, we'll actually be able to get into the RnL studio tonight...

If so, I'll be there with a bag full of my favourite tracks released in 2008 (plus maybe one or two from late 2007), including stuff by (takes deep breath) The Bug, Astral Social Club, Gescom, The Spook of the Thirteenth Lock, Autechre, Max Tundra, Emeralds, The Master Musicians of Hop-Frog, Matmos, Supersilent, Arthur Russell, The Fall, Portishead, Antietam, Wire, B12, Flying Lotus, Asva, Sparks, Kings & Queens, Kyoka, The Brethren of the Free Spirit, Eat Skull and more. Hope you can tune in.

Thanks,
Paul

EDIT: Oops, spelled "anocht" wrong again. Sorry, Portrid.

Roll up roll up!

My favourite track of the year can be found at the end of this patchwork pirates mix

(which is pretty darn good in itself!)

Hear it in full 12" glory and lots more tonight with a bit of luck!

Dunno if you will enough time to fit in all that esecailly if you play Supreme Balloon by Matmos and The Quacking Mess by Emeralds.

Well, that's nearly a quarter of the show gone there. So much for me playing any of those 10-minute-plus tunes that floated my boat this year...

(But it is a great track.)
