The Show: The World Is My Oyster At Easter

One of those shows where a quick glance down the playlist reveals a United Nations of music genres including (but not limited to) Indonesian Shoegaze, Swedish Electronic Noise, Mongolian Throat Metal, Italian Retro Disco, South African Kwaito House, Canadian Electro, Jamaican Hip Hop, Colombian / Spanish Reggaeton, K-(Indie)Pop and, of course, Ethiopian Drone Hymns.

As an added bonus here’s a song that didn’t make the final cut but always gets a thrashing in The Joint HQ at this time of year – “Should The Bible Be Banned” by McCarthy. Happy Easter everyone!

The Show: Be urself

Today’s playlist was inspired by an Alexis Petridis article on the Guardian website – ‘Be urself’: meet the teens creating a generation gap in music

At The Joint HQ we love a good generation gap, the wider the better, so expect more from (and I’m paraphrasing heavily here) 80’s Sarah Records soundalikes racking up 30m+ YouTube views.

And we’ve just realised we still haven’t posted the video for CHAII’s Digebasse  (Enough), a massive oversight on our part which we can fix right now…

The Show: Party Like It’s 1989

The Herb Whisperer is taking one or two shows off to recover from the bizarre Champions League Round of 16 match that took place earlier this week between PSG & Manchester United .

Filling in is a set Graeme Park & Mike Pickering played at The Hacienda in August 1989. You can hear the rave whistles and (almost) smell the Vicks VapoRub
