Apologies for the long show, I have a lot to cram in before my holidays (fnar!).

Noisy 6 Punk mixes now up

Sunday, August 28th, 2005

You can find 6 rather fine examples of mixage of a punk persuasion here: http://noise/b-n-r.com. I'm one of the Noisy 6 now and I go under the moniker of timbearcub/tbc for those mixes (tonight mathew...) :-D

My mix is called 'Punk is Playing At My House' (66 mins, 62Mb) and you can read the tracklist below. It's mean to flow as a sort of history, going from early punk/garage tunes (Kinks, Kingsmen, Iggy) through media shocks (Bill Grundy, Ramones, Clash), through electronic, reggae and dub bad girls and glam (Joan Jett, Flying Lizards, Big Black), to Anarchy in the UK and Queens (Manolo kabezabolo, Chumbawumba, Ukrainians), to kids tunes and silliness (Vandals, Ramones do Spiderman, Banana Splits, Sabre Dance) and then the sick ending with Joey Ramone, Sound of Music punk style, Wizard of Oz punk and Nada Surf doing Iggy.

It's a very Radio Clash sort of mix, with a lot of genre fuckage and thematic slumping (it's like 5 minimixes in one, and it my first long mix). It was all done live with about 5 edits for punk loose 'feel'.

I mean a mix that includes Ukelele band of Great Britain's version of 'Two pints of Lager and A Packet of Crisps Please' can't be that bad, can it?

Now where's my towel? Or my Pod Galactic Gargle Blaster?
