Good evening! It’s still supporter drive, so please head over to FBi’s website and consider becoming a supporter! It doesn’t cost much, especially as an ongoing monthly payment, and it makes a huuuuge difference… srsly
So… Da UFog is 5 years and one week tonight. Howzat!
First track is from a new collaborative album between a lovely Japanese singer and the two blokes who run Room40. Then two tracks from Sydney harpist/singer/songwriter Heidi Elva‘s gorgeous new album.
Because of Ghosts’ newie has grown on me to the point where I think it’s a little slice of genius. I’ll be spinning this quite a bit more over the week I think, and I suspect you’ll be hearing it on the station in general…
Then we have a lovely remix of Shoeb Ahmad from a companion 3″ to his new album. Next week I’ll play the remix from all-round musical hero Bracken… Speaking of Shoeb, his duo Spartak‘s new album is just out (or just about out), and it is, as probably previously mentioned round these parts, a staggering work of etcetera etcetera – a Must-Buy! as they say. They’ll be coming in on the 21st of September to play live in the studio – wehey!
Among the other fabulous stuff I played tonight were a bunch of covers from the Recovery compilation on Fractured Recordings mentioned last week. It’s a corker of a comp and you owe it to yourself to at least click through to the label’s site and contemplate the wondrousness of 20 really unusual covers over 10 7″ records… Tasty.
