Sat, 24 May 2008 It seems I really had a lot of extra stuff to talk about as I've gone well over the hour mark for the first time on an 8 track show. Note to self, stop talking... The main reason for this loquacity is the fact that I had two different sets of e-mail correspondence this week. It's a rare enough occurence when I get one e-mail in a week that relates to my show, so to get several from two different people was a nice change. A welcome to the new de facto leader of the Association of Music Podcasting the venerable Mr. Pete Cogle. Let's hope that our new boss can bring AMP into the fore-front of the podcasting community where it belongs. And please remember that this show has the explicit tag and is most definitely not work-safe. Just look at the last track title.
Slim pickings on the video front this week. Dark Room Notes - Love Like Nicotine Postmark Twain - Matter Of Seconds [Live Performance]
See you next time and remember, it's promotion not piracy. Category: Video Links -- posted at: 9:43 AM Comments[1] |

Sat, 17 May 2008 New music source for this week with all music coming from MusicSUBMIT.com. Not entirely happy with having to pay for podplay, but at the end of the day the more new music I hear the more new music I can send into your ears. A plot has been hatched this week to plug Made In The UK on an upcoming episode of AMPed. A little bit ethically dubious to plug a non-AMP anthology show on the AMP anthology show, but that's what Rowley from Dark Compass is planning to do, so there's going to be a lot of cross-over on those two shows over the next few weeks.
Nice selection of videos this week, with three different but equally good videos. The zwish one is home-made and very funny, Otto's Daughter has some impressive production values and fits the song well and Fans Of Jimmy Century is very tongue-in-cheek and ridiculously got banned by AOL videos for excessive sexual content. Make up your own mind and click the links below. Fans Of Jimmy Century - Blonde Ambition
See you next time and remember, it's amazing what you can do with some Lego and some Jam. Category: Video Links -- posted at: 9:02 AM Comments[2] |

Sat, 10 May 2008 Another bit of nostalgia this week with all the tracks by artists who have previously appeared on the show. The main reasoning behind this is all the lovely CD's I've been receiving through the post to review. Those lovely blokes at The Haiku not only sent me their debut CD but they also put me down as one of only 8 people given an acknowledgement in their sleeve notes. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. One of my favourite bands, The Madisons, have split up but Aaron their lead singer is back with a new solo project. It's great to see that even when bands come to an end the music continues. What's even better is that it's some bloody good music. Also remember to look at the Noize Makes Enemies webzine where all the reviews I've been writing are located.
Only one video this week. Sometimes it just happens that way. The Bastard Fairies - A Venomous Tale
See you next week and remember, it's almost like I'm a real journalist. Category: Video Links -- posted at: 10:57 AM Comments[0] |

Sat, 3 May 2008 ![]() Sorry for the slightly late release this week. It's been a frustrating day of trying to get the damn show uploaded. It should be OK now and be available for your listening pleasure. Despite my 10 minute rant at the beginning of the show I still came out at under the hour mark. I'm a little bit surprised at that. Since I mentioned the excellent cover art for the Karmella's Game album 'The Art Of Distraction' I thought I may as well add it to this blog. Remember to look for the reviews I did for Of The I, Venus Verse and O Titus! on the Noize Makes Enemies webzine. Hopefully more reviews coming this week.
Another case of quality over quantity this week. The Nada Surf and Mexicolas videos are both excellent. The Karmella's Game video I found is a live performance that contains a short interview at the start. Nada Surf - I Like What You Say My Captive Audience - The Butterfly Effects [Live Performance, Poor Quality] Karmella's Game - One Phone Call [Live Performance]
See you next time and remember, it's called a podcast now and it's far too late to change it. Category: Video Links -- posted at: 9:42 PM Comments[2] |
