Sorry, it has been a while since the last podcast, I've been relocating and finally have all of the necessary equipment in one place to do a recording. But the result is that this is an indie poptastic show with lots of the great music that I've been collecting over the last many weeks.
I'll say right now that I expect two of the songs in the first set to end up being on my top 10 singles of this year. The second set all came from a sampler from Brassland Records of New York that you can download for free here: http://brassland.bandcamp.com/album/brassland-sampler-for-2011-free , it features such artists as The National and Baby Dayliner.
I never know what to play for the last song of the show as it is usually orphaned away from the other sets, so I'm going to try something new and take a random song from my digital music collection and use that as my last song. We'll see how it goes, but I really liked and forgotten about this week's random ending.

A lot of new material this show with the first set consisting entirely of albums released in 2011, many of which will probably end up in my top 10 for the year. These included songs by The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, The Go! Team, Acid House Kings, Those Dancing Days, and Lykke Li. And I now know that I mis-interpreted the lyric in The Pains song, instead of "you look so hard in fishnets and leather" I thought it was "you look so hot ...", I like my version better.
After a set of some more rocking indie music I ended with a funky set, something I haven't done in a while. Sorry about the sound quality on the Archie Bell and the Drells song, but the I just loved the song too much not to play it.

April 1, 2011
The show started with an album that has been a long time coming, the last Acid House Kings album was way back in 2006 and although the band members have done various other projects, this was the first proper Acid House Kings release since then. The album is called Music Sounds Better With You and is filled with all the happy feel good indie pop that you would expect from them.
The rest of the show was a random selection of great music that I've come across in the last little while as well as an indie pop classic from Guided By Voices.

March 11, 2011
The entire first set came from a sampler that was put out before the New England Popfest last November, I finally got around to playing some of the great songs that were on it. In particular my top song was done by the Smittens (who of course do the theme to my DJ night at the Jane Bond) and is one of those songs that I had to listen to everyday for about 2 weeks.
And a note about the last song I played, the song "Love Bath" by Smokey Robinson is just as good as you might image a song like this might be. I was quite surprised to learn that the song comes from a release from last year.

And a note about the last song I played, the song "Love Bath" by Smokey Robinson is just as good as you might image a song like this might be. I was quite surprised to learn that the song comes from a release from last year.
