I’m dead chuffed with this week’s mini mix. So happy to the extent I might start putting copies in people’s Christmas cards this year (well it’s that or a letter from my dog in the first person…) The mix is taken from my set at Monto last Thursday. Enjoy!
XYNTHEX MINIMIX 3 MP3

Thursday, as sets go, in its 6 hour glory was hardcore. Monto was heaving. Nice to see so many people enjoying the tracks. Particularly loved the Roxy Music singalong right at the end of the night. (Nearly as good at the lone guy robot dancing to Whitey last week). The set list went like this:
Party [...]

I know, I know, there’s late and then there’s the sort of over due that makes librarians throw stuff at you.
Anyway, eventually I cobbled together another mix for you guys. It’s not live from Monto last week. The tracks that I laid down at the top of the night (i.e. Justice,) were waaay too big [...]

The mighty Ezra Bang and Hot Machine has just released new offering The Erotic Adventures of John the Butcher on I-Tunes which you need to buy. Now.

Last week I caught Gary Numan performing his 1978 LP replicas at few places, but this post isn’t about GN. This post is about those who braved the scorn of the numanoid legion to open for Numan on tour.
SOUTH CENTRAL opened for Numan at the Brighton Dome. Hooded up in matching black tops I’ll be [...]

I got a lot out if this week at Monto. People kept apologizing to me for the size of the crowd; if it was a small crowd for the gig I couldn’t really comment as I was by the decks in the front bar all night. As far as I’m concerned it was a great [...]

Monday was a bit of a sleeper agent; coming out of nowhere and turning out romper stomper.
In particular YOU need Ou est le swimming pool? in you life. These guys are amazing and pulled out some of the freshest noises on stage I’ve heard for ages. Very E1 sounding. The stand out track for me [...]

Those of you who have followed this blog over from myspazz will know that I’m normally pretty particular about making sure I blog my setlists within 24 hours of the show.
This week however I’m chocablock with wall to wall engagements so it’s looking pretty unlikely I’m going to be able to post up tomorrow’s set [...]

Last night down Monto was hectic, and if you missed it - mo fool you.

For my meagre part the setlist was as follows;
‘Apprentice of the Universe’ – Pure Reason Revolution
‘Blue bird’ – Devendra Banhart
‘Crime wave’ – Health (Crystal [...]
