What is this? Well, Radio Clash, is a weekly mashup podcast from your host, Tim in London.
It's the one of the longest running podcasts in England (since Nov 2004), and includes mash-ups (of course), mixes, weird covers and more! As featured in The Independent, the BBC, SPIN and Entertainment Week, and even the world's first ever podcast on psychedelics (!), it brings you the history of mash ups, bootleg events, news, views and interviews of the bootlegging scene and beyond. More about the podcast.

Just got back from Brizzle - a great time was had by all, the Skip to the End show and my mix went down well despite forgetting to edit the middle bit properly (as Art of Noise once said 'there wasn't time' - I did this mix in 10 hours NON STOP, including 3 new tunes done in Ableton) but the podcast version will fix this - I'll let you know when Pete puts the show up.

And in other news - Jeb arthole said on his blog that at the Duran Duran show in Concord*, California my Burn Yr Radio bootleg got pre-show play! Wheeeeeeeeeee! That one has a life of it's own now, nice to see my babies growing up

I'll be a guest on Pete Juxtaposeur's excellent Skip to the End show from 9pm BST tonight (Sunday) with a special WOBaudience of DJ Lumpy and Angus heckling most likely in the background. I'll be playing 4 exclusive tracks never heard anywhere else including 2 new DJNoNo tracks, in my special 30 minute mix for the show, and there will be chat, bootlegage, and silly fun most likely!

You can listen live via http://forum.sound-unsound-network.com/ and post comments on the blog here and we might respond live!

Well the Socialist Worker Party's comment form on the rose-tinted sweetness and light article about the festival isn't working, so I'll post this here:

"I was one of the people at the Love Music Hate Racism carnival, too young for the original Rock Against Racism but regard that concert with great respect.

Overall it was a great festival, but with a few major issues.

It's a shame though that unlike the Pride events held at Victoria Park in the 90s there was fences and police everywhere, people confiscating or refusing entry to people with plastic water bottles (not just glass and alcohol) - but a really poor selection of alcohol inside.

But the biscuit was taken (away) by the police stopping the event - the aforementioned PCS tent. It wasn't unsafe - in fact the tent was part empty - and people were just having a good time. I don't expect the police at a political event to just shut the tent down at 5:20 for no explained reason - leaving DJ Hype and the poor MC to try and explain after getting us to step back, which we did. It was lucky that there wasn't a riot...

Yes people had a great time, and it was the one part of the LMHR I felt racial and cultural divides breaking down with people dancing to everything to banghra to drum and bass - but I find it odd that the police would be in control of such an event, given the SWP/IS history. And as we left the organisers (not police) were rudely barking at people to move out of the way, but most of the problem was the ice cream van parked in front of the exit.

Also the irony of asking people to buy tshirts and bags to support the event. Capitalism anyone? Oh it's ok to wear a tshirt if it has the right logo on it? Very dodgy.

So although I did have a good time, I did feel LMHR and SWP and the Unions involved were skating a very fine line -  I was left feeling disheartened rather than empowered, and felt that rather than talk to someone about it they'd rather sell me a tshirt.

So this is the revolution in action is it?"

I was talking about this with John (who is a member of the SWP, I am most definitely not although have leanings that way) - I think the festival compromised the SWP and LMHR and various groups involved.

They became the very things they railed against.

Clapham Junction 2008

RX, the mashup/cutup artist who I interviewed last June talking about his presidential aspirations is now apparently working with libertarian US Presidential Candidate Mike Gravel on his presidential campaign...you'll hear the Helter Skelter track on Radio Clash very soon, but here is the other track he did with Mike last year:

It's great to see rx actually creating the sort of cutup not only in video but for a bigger political cause, and get involved with the Presidential elections - if only Obama and Clinton were this switched on in their online campaigns, willing to adapt and take risks.
