A busy week at Ourobouros Towers. Had the gig on Wednesday that was a good night out, though sadly poorly attended. I've still got the 5 Unsigned show to turn into a podcast and of course I had to put out the 'regular' podcast as well. I think it's a good show if I do say so myself.

I've also discovered some new software after I read an article in Podcast User Magazine so I started using it for this episode. Gabor over at Electrical Language has also started using it for his last episode as well. It's called REAPER, is very easy to use and I think has increased the audio quality of the show. Let me know what you think.

This weeks show includes some house music, which is a first for me, some violin rock, a welcome return for a band I've played before, some pop-punk and some extraordinary music created by two acoustic guitars.

Don't forget that there will be two 'live' podcasts released shortly. One recorded at my own gig and one recorded at 5 Unsigned.

Pretty good selection of videos this week:

Martijn Ten Velden - I Wish U Would 

Echo Helstrom - Hungry Ghost

Last Letter Read - Leabridge

Grand Atlantic - Smoke And Mirrors

The Grams - On A Wednesday [This is an extended video with footage from a live show. 'On A Wednesday' is the first track]

Momentary Prophets - Go! [Live Performance]

I have something a little bit different lined up for my next episode so keep listening.

A severely late episode this week. I hate to keep my adoring public waiting...

The reason for this is that one of the bands I had booked to play at my gig tomorrow had to pull out and I had to find a replacement before I could do the last minute promotion on my podcast. I finally found a replacement and could put out the podcast the day before the show.

So all you Bath fans, Wednesday 10th October at The Porter Butt you will be able to see Cherry Stain, Group 4 and We*Take*Flight. And of course there will be a live podcast featuring tracks recorded on the night released some time next week.

Speaking of live podcasts there will also be a 5 Unsigned podcast released soon recorded this past Sunday at the monthly acoustic night. Sadly it will be the last show for a while as Rich who runs it is taking a break. Lets hope he comes back sometime next year.

Not much on the video front this month but here they are:

The Dykeenies - Pick You Up [Live Performance]

Peter, Bjorn And John - Young Folks

George Demure - My Baby's Gone

If I don't see you at my gig I'll see you next week for another selection of fine independent music.

TRACK LIST

1: Group 4 - With Him

2: We*Take*Flight - Broken Bones

3: The Dykeenies - Pick You Up

4: Peter, Bjorn And John - Young Folks

5: Tempo No Tempo - A Different Weapon

6: The RoundSquare - Stop Freaking Me Out

7: Weapons Of Youth (AKA Death Of A Dancer) - Exit Body

8: George Demure - My Baby's Gone

Sorry about the missing week. As you can see from the post below I had a little trouble last week and then it was time to do AMPed again and I just didn't have the time to do my own show.

Good news is that the AMPed episode is finished and will be online this Monday. It sounds pretty good, although I'm only going to be playing one track off it on my own show.

It's also inching ever closer to my second gig so if you're in the Bath area on 10th October come along to The Porter Butt to see We*Take*Flight, Group 4 and Liken.

I think the wait for this episode was worth it. It's kind of a tribute to IODA and the Podsafe Music Network as they have provided me with some quality music that I was desperate to bring you. So we have some melodic singer/songwriter, some fun rock tracks, a couple of down tempo electronica numbers, a very odd cover and for some reason several tracks that have odd recording effects included.

Very nice selection of videos this week. Enjoy:

Windmill - Fit

The Hold Steady - Chips Ahoy

Dartz! - Once Twice Again

You Say Party! We Say Die! - Opportunity

The Artists Formerly Known As The Look - Broken Record

Angelique Kidjo feat. Joss Stone - Gimme Shelter

Next week will be the live gig preview show, with a new track by all three bands on the bill as well as some more quality podsafe music and of course the weird track of the week to close out the show. Trust me next weeks is REALLY weird.

Speak to you then.
