“Call me, dilettante”
Last (last) week’s RINSE show is now up for playback. Broadcast on 9th of August before an excursion to Dartmoor with family, the theme behind this one was very much on those <in-between> tracks. Not particularly one genre or another, but percussively going somewhere. As a dear friend once told me: “always be warm, never be hot”. Said friend is now very much “hot”, but I think his pearl of self-advice helped build gradually and reputably to that place.
The alternative thinking was: “what would Weatherall and Harvey sound like playing across, I dunno, all night in a beloved club in Berlin – no, too obvious – erm… Amsterdam!” Two days later – over on RA – there was seismic shift in the Balearic Jedi movement. As the Guv’nor’s force ghost re-emerged swinging sabres with the big man himself.
Anyway, in spite of a few overly ambitious rides at the extremes of the pitch control, I think this one holds pretty true as a wee entrée to the above. If marathon training is on your agenda for September, let this lead in to the 6 hour victory lap down the way. Track-list and link to the full show below.
Happy Saturday and thanks again to RINSE for the slot. Kindly, there’s an hour of video to enjoy here too!
