The January Radio Show

Here it is, a little later than it should be. Unfortunately, I had some ancient WordPress plug-ins that dragged this page into purgatory. However, its cleared up now so all good. Here’s the January show!

There’s a special theme for January’s mix. It’s entirely based around what I was listening to in the 90s. Obviously, that’s not just 90s music. Then there was just enough time left to play something off the recent Richard Dawson & Circle album which is just as classic.

So, here’s the tracklist:

0:00 – Richard Dawson & Circle – Ivy

9:37 – Spacemen 3 – Ecstasy Symphony/Transparent Radiation (Flashback)

18:58 – Main – Corona (pt. 1)

28:52 – Disco Inferno – Lost in Fog

33:28 – Levitation – Squirrel

37:09 – The God Machine – The Desert Song

41:14 – Ennio Morricone – The Sicilian Clan

44:30 – Coldcut – Sign

49:43 – Bark Psychosis – A Street Scene

53:30 – Front 242 – Junkdrome

1:00:37 – The Velvet Underground & Nico – All Tomorrow’s Parties

1:06:20 – Paul Giovani & Magnet – Searching For Rowan

1:08:37 – Godflesh – Slateman

1:14:14 – Laibach – War

1:18:15 – Killing Joke – Follow The Leader

1:22:48 – The KLF – 3 A.M. Eternal (Klonk Blip Every Trip)

1:28:14 – The Sabres of Paradise – Wilmot

1:36:14 – The Young Gods – Summer Eyes

1:57:30 – Loop – Soundhead (Peel Session version)

6th Birthday: The Roots of Was Ist Das?

Well, judging by the greetings on facebook, it is now August 19th in Japan, so that means the 6th birthday of Was Ist Das? has begun. It’s also the second anniversary of when Was Ist Das? 2.0 was born, as that’s when the domain name registration was freed and I could start again with a brand new website with a new host & registrar.

To celebrate, here’s a DJ mix exploring the music that inspired & informed my musical tastes. Included are many old favourites and songs used as nuggets in the podcast/video review intro theme:
