The Show: D.I.Y.

No representation from us this week. Instead we left you in the dexterous hands of Mr. John Ussher from Hauswerk, who enthralled us with dance tunes with squeaky toy rhythms and made us swoon with a trip down The Pharcyde memory lane.

If you were pining for our usual playlist, feel free to create your own by mixing and matching from the following three Joint staple ingredients.

1) Disco

2) Noise

Courtesy of Alec Empire with a mix he did for Dim Mak records. If we’re not mistaken Max Keiser and Stacey Herbert, old friends of The Joint, make an appearance at some point.

3) Offence

Courtesy of Die Antwoord who are continuing their recent track record of making the most unsettling videos since the heyday of Chris Cunningham.

The Show: Live from the MM’s Bar (In Coach F)

Do you like your liquorice salty or your licorice sweet?

Next something to do next weekend? RDU’s Hauswerk presents Frank Booker at The Monday Room next Saturday night 20 October 2012. We’re away next Saturday but the good news is that Hauswerk’s John Ussher will be filling in for us. Mr Ussher is keen to bust out some classic hip hop, trip hop, downbeat tunes as well as some classic soul.

The show: Here comes the summer

We promised you an early summer and as soon as we played the sifty indie tunes the weather closed in and we got some rain. However, right on cue as soon as played the Grandaddy classic “Summer Here Kids” the sun reappeared. Who could ask for more?

The Show: Did we say that we’ve never played Skrillex?

I don’t think we’ve ever played Skrillex on the show before. Maybe that changed today. Does Dog Blood count? If so, sorry Kenny if you’re listening.

Need something to do tonight? Then head along to the Sexy Animals gig at The Wunderbar. Not sure what to expect? The gig poster below might give you some sifty clues…

The Show: Loose booty

The Herb Whisperer played Elvis Costello‘s 1978 classic “Pump It Up” because allegedly it is sampled in the Beastie Boys’ album Paul’s Boutique, a bona fide treasure trove of samples.

It may explain why Sly & The Family Stone’s “Loose Booty” is now an earworm – it was sampled on the track “Shadrach”. Here’s a video of”Loose Booty” from 1975…

And let’s not forget Elvis Costello, from 1978…

If you want to listen to the Solid Steel Radio Show where DJ’s Cheeba, Moneyshot and Food deconstruct, reimagine and reassemble Paul’s Boutique (and in the process revealing to The Herb Whisperer the presence of Pump It Up on the original), here it is.
