Alien Jams on NTS Radio - special guest ME

[IdleRich]

I'm going to be on the NTS Radio Show Alien Jams on Sunday from five until six playing some weird electronic records and, I think, talking about them.
As you can see Chloe is so excited about it that she has not mentioned it at all on the website but I imagine that the details of how you listen to it etc are on here

or here perhaps

Oh you know, Skrillex and that.

 

[IdleRich]

Sorry, that wasn't very specific was it? It's gonna be mainly kinda quirky pieces from the sixties and seventies I suppose, some libraries and one-offs.
Maybe this



or this



But probably not exactly that cos I don't want to give it all away before the show. Got a few afro and cuban bits with electronic squiggles on them too plus probably some moog funk and exotica.

 

[IdleRich]

Did anyone listen? Would be very keen to get some feedback... even if it's negative.

 

[Leo]

is it available on any sort of online audio archive?

 

[IdleRich]

It will be soon. I think she said that they would get it online in the next couple of days with a bit of luck. I will definitely stick the link here when they do. Thanks for your interest.

 

[Mr. Tea]

Really dug this. I see that eternal favourite, the VW camper-van drum freakout, got an airing! Killing of The Perv sounded great too.

 

[IdleRich]

Glad you enjoyed, cheers.

Here it is

nice one, rich. can you clarify the deal with arkade funk/tilt? discogs and some other sites seem to have song and group names both ways ("tilt" by arkade funk and "arkade funk" by tilt). cool nonetheless.

this is a three-hour mixcloud but the listing says the show if from 5-6 pm. only had the chance to hear the first hour so far, did you get an extended show?

 

[IdleRich]

Hi - thanks for your interest. I was just on for an hour, I guess she may have put some of her other shows on after that but to be honest I haven't listened yet.
The Arkade Funk thing is confusing. If you look at the record it seems to say Tilt - Arkade Funk and Tilt - Arkade Funk (Slow Dub Version) on the other side so I think that the tune is Arkade Funk. Not sure I said it clearly or even correctly on the radio.
