Sat, 3 January 2009 I'm back with my first new podcast of the year. It's been nearly a month since I recorded a new show so it was kinda weird to get back in the saddle. The loud buzzing you can hear in the background is my computer. It's on it's last legs and is getting increasingly noisy. There's not much I can do about it so we're just going to have to put up with it until it finally dies. Another reminder that I've finally signed up to twitter, so you can follow me at twitter.com/ourobouros54 if you really want to. And please, please, please send me your favourite tracks for the second anniversary show. Let me know your favourite track that I've played and if you can record your own intro for the track then that would be fantastic. Ideally I'd like tracks suggested that have been played in the last year (since the first anniversary special), but any track that has been played on the show can be suggested. Not much on the video front this week. The Camerawalls - Clinically Dead For 16 Hours Marnie Stern - Transformer Fagan - When The Lights Go Out Remember that the VidCast featuring my 10 favourite videos for tracks that were played in 2008 will be released on Wednesday and there will be another 'regular' show next Saturday. So see you next time and remember, I hope you're all now headbanging like mental patients. Category: Video Links -- posted at: 1:34 PM Comments[0] | ||||||||||||||||||||

The second annual Review podcast is here featuring my 10
favourite tracks that have been played on the show in the last year. To make the selection process easier I made myself some
rules to follow. Bands that were played on last years podcast or vidcast were
excluded, bands that were featured on this years vidcast were also excluded and
bands that have split up were excluded. Even with these rules it was hard to pick a 10 track
playlist, so honourable mentions go to: Acusis – Donora – Weekend Tongue (Played Show #68) Little Fish – Am I Crazy? (Played Show #54) un:armed – Talk Talk (Played Show #37) Since I recorded this show at the beginning of December the
schedule has changed slightly. The next episode in the feed will be a regular
show on Saturday and then the VidCast is released midweek next week. And while I’m here I may as well announce that I have bitten
the bullet and signed up for twitter. You can find me and follow me at
twitter.com/ourobouros54. Category: general -- posted at: 3:33 PM Comments[0] | ||||||||||||||||||||

Sat, 29 November 2008 So here we are with the last numbered podcast of the year. Not so much 'wine' as recent episodes (thank you Pete...), but it's still what you've come to expect from this here fine podcast. I've slightly changed my recording methods this week so hopefully the links will be a bit clearer from now on. Let me know if there's any noticeable change. For the next three weeks there will be Christmas/New Year party mixes in the feed. These will be in a different format. No introductions and no links, just 16 tracks from my archive mixed together followed by me telling you what you've just been listening to. That way if you did want to use them as background for a party you don't have me wittering on as well. Each mix will have a different flavour. The first straight ahead dance, the second chill-out and the third industrial. My 'Best of the Year' podcasts will be out in the first week of January. One featuring my top 10 tracks of the year and another featuring my top 10 videos of the Year. The Joy Formidable are definitely in... Only two videos this week, but The Scenic's one is kinda cool. Beta Rays - I Fell In Love The Scenic - The American Way Next week there'll be the 'Dance' party mix in the feed, so see you then and remember I'm not all about the hate. PS Seriously, if anyone in England wants a 3-month old Staffordshire Bull Terrier puppy let me know. Only one left and he's starting to eat a lot...

Sat, 22 November 2008 Back in the saddle and back ranting. Only a little over the hour though. Having just had a quick look on The Pirate Bay there are at least 5 different cracks of Football Manager 2009. It is 8 days since the game has been released. This only proves my point that piracy protection does not work and only serves to punish honest people by making them go through a ridiculous number of hoops to play the game. The Sega customer service leaves a lot to be desired. To be fair to them when the enquiry was made they were quick to respond, but not having a running customer service line on the day of release and not giving out clear instructions are both unforgivable. I made a small error with the URL's for The Opposite Of Faith. Both the URL's are oppositeoffaith not THEoppositeoffaith. Since I recorded the show I've had a quick look at SellaBand and it's pretty good. Fans of the artists have an opportunity to buy $10 shares to help bands record their record. Once the band has $50,000, SellaBand matches them up with professional A&R and studios and they record the album. The profits are then split between the 'shareholders', the band and SellaBand. It seems unacheivable to get that much money, but apparently 24 artists have done it. All in all it's a really good business model. Not much on the video front, but the Zox effort is really good. A simple, but mad, idea effectively pulled off. Not a massive budget, but a really nice video. The Ghost Of A Stranger video is really weird. It seems to be a fan video of a guitarist put through a very large pixel filter. Zox - Line In The Sand Shortwave - Whatcha Get Ghost Of A Stranger - Fight It Out (Remix) It'll be the last numbered show of the year next week, so see you then and remember it's a bit eerie.
