Damp Squib Minimix Fiesta



This week in the time-machine, a brand new experiment in "minimixing", inspired by the quizzical expression of the eastern gentleman pictured above. Taking four 7" records, namely:










... and working entirely with a single side of each record, across four turntables, to produce short, improvised mixes. With each mix we swapped records and had much fun playing about with accident and chaos. Business as usual, then, but with a mini, fun-size twist.

Beats & Bobs

A hhhhuge server crash at WFMU meant that this podcast didn't go out on time, but it's now available, albeit with a rather minimal blogpost. A 25 minute mix of drums, Stravinsky, Grieg, and all sorts of shattering and clattering. Perhaps the sound of a crashing server?
