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.

RX enters the ring (why does that sound rude) for Gravel

April 25th, 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.

RC 160: Negativland 2 - Choice of a Negativ Generation

April 16th, 2008

Negativland Choice
Culturejamming by Tim, (no) slogon by Negativland, teeth rotting by Pepsi

True or False, red or blue, eggs or peas, aluminium or glass, music or noise, whiskers or mittens, 180-G or 409, stupid or dumb, these are some of my favourite things.

The second part of the Negativlandseries takes us from 1993 and the dumb depths of legality to 2007 and No Business is good business (even if it is Acappella in your Head FM).

RC 159: Parkade Shop Boys - the PSB mix

April 12th, 2008

Pet Shop Boys at the Parkade

Last Thursday we did a special themed gig at the Parkade in Second Life around the music of the Pet Shop Boys. I DJ'd first for 2 hours, then Amanda Shinji aka Ms Cyberpink DJ'd for 2 hours - you can hear her mix here. My set included a real mixture of originals, covers, remixes, mashups, collaborations and even the odd spoof

In this mix I included To Speak is a Sin, one of my coming out songs, as it is as I correctly guessed before Mr Tennant's coming out, about a gay bar - takes me back to those times!
