The Show: Switch sides swiftly, then I’m onside chippin’

 

Switch sides swiftly, then I’m onside chippin’
Catch me online ’cause my team stay winning
You know how it is
They’re gonna put it in the paper like, “Which baller is this?”
I hide my face and wear the mask in the vids

What is the true identity of the supposed Premier League footballer turned masked, mystery rapper Dide?

Arsenal forward Eddie Nketiah? No chance. Unless we’re mistaken, at no point does anyone say current Premier League footballer. We’re old school – our money’s on Sir Les Ferdinand.

And on with the show…

The Show: Dead white men’s notes.

Another week and another music documentary to recommend.

“Sisters With Transistors” charts the (relatively) unheralded female pioneers of electronic music. From Clara Rockmore’s mastery and development of the theremin to the earsplitting drones of Maryanne Amacher, it’s the story of women who wanted to do more than “push around dead white men’s notes”.

It only seemed right and proper to include a couple of tunes from the soundtrack in today’s playlist, to wit: Laurie Spiegel and Space Lady.

All interspersed with excerpts from Chris Addison’s recent Bugle appearance.

And on with the show…

The Show: Boyle Correspondent.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TecCuUhLHk

And speaking of mysterious, corrupt cults, today’s show draws heavily from the soundtrack of Wild Wild Country, a Netflix documentary on the quite bizarre story of Bhagwan Raneesh’s attempts to build a utopian city in Oregon in the early 80’s.

The Show: Scissor Sister

We’re enjoying the first couple of tunes from Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds new album so much we snuck one on to the show today. “She Taught Me How to Fly” first caught our eye on an episode of Later with Jools Holland at the end of October. Look carefully. One member of the band is on backing scissors.
