Track Listing Monday 27th March 2006

Hello All,

Very sorry that the posting of the shows listings have been so slow in migrating from my notebook to the blog. My excuse ? I've started a new job this month - I'm now working for BBC World Service on a fabulous new programme called Culture Shock, check it out if you're interested in finding out about trends and new ideas in global culture..can't believe I just wrote that! Check it out!

This Monday's Nows The Time was great. Both Kevin and myself are still on a buzz from the Nows The Time night at the Vortex in Dalston that took place on the previous Friday - 24th. Jason Yarde performed a stonking set live and we had a full house - so things are looking good for the monthly night at the Vortex. I'll post details of the April 24th night next week.

We arrived a little early to the Resonance FM studio on Monday and as usual there was a musical suprise to be had. The Wrong Music people where doing their thing, which is a laptop electro mash up that has all the attitude and energy of pure British punk crossed with the electro-clash aesthetics of Venetian Snares - genius. Scotch Egg was in fine form throwing in enough "fucks" to put everyone on edge but Wrong means Wrong - No!

Sadly this joyous and raucous musical bonanza was the swan song for the show that precedes us each monday You Are Here presented by Magz Hall and Jim Backhaus. Magz and Jim have been a pleasent sight indeed every monday and they'll be missed. Hope to see them back on Resonance FM after the summer. Good news is that Wrong Music people will be filling this slot so good luck to them.
