THE MONTY SHOW - 149 - THE JUNTA MIX (uncut) - 21st May 2013

This is an EXCELLENT mix that was recently featured on The Monty Show. There's some classic blasts from the past melded together with some brand new stuff including tracks from us and our friends, those naughty scamps Luis Drayton and Toska Wilde. We both  really enjoyed this one.

Here's a description of the mix from its creator:

Hello Brazil! And thank you Tonyy!

HT: If you missed our appearance on the 20th May edition of  the Enter The Shadows show  on Radio Hotzilla you can download an MP3 of the whole show. The playlist and link are below. As far as we know this is our first radio outing in Brazil courtesy of  DjTonyy Moreira, in Sau Paulo. It's an excellent mix of bands, most of whom we're not familiar with. I especially liked the track 'In Heaven' by Gliss, but there's a few on here that I intend to check out further. Always like it when that happens. Thanks Tonyy!

"What would Glass Candy sound like if they sang about dicks?"

We got a succinct but beautifully formed blog post on the Ongakubaka music blog where we were likened to one of Owen's favourite bands, Glass Candy, as per the title of this blog.

There's mention too of the free download of 'Prostitute's Handbag' which you can get as a 'name your price' 3 track 'single' release from Bandcamp.


Also available from our page at Nerve Echo . If you scroll down the T!TN Nerve Echo page a bit you'll see both our version and The Atomizer Remix  just below our album. Just put a zero in the price bit and get it for free.

Alternatively, if the twittersphere is your more permanent residence, you can get a couple of free downloads via out newly set up twitmusic page. If you like our synth sound but are sick of the dicks you can download the instrumental of 'A Forest of Cocks' . 

'A Forest of Cocks' - Instrumental via twitmusic player - free download.

You will also find a few of our tunes on there available for streaming and tweeting to your pals as well as another free download: 'Prostitute's Handbag' Atomizer Remix

The Sun And The Rainfall podcast - Alternative Indie Show 1

Our friends at Fallen Rock Zone are taking a short break from their blogtalk radio show but all is not lost because Barbara has decided to keep her hand in by producing some podcasts, featuring many of her favourite bands, to fill the void.

Here is the first episode of The Sun And The Rainfall as curated by Barbara: 'A collection of Alternative Indie artists ranging from Alternative rock to synth and electro pop and new wave: Photostat Machine, A Terrible Splendour, Tingle In The Netherlands, Eleven:Eleven, JRumney, Precious McKenzie, Father Tiger, Killwave, The Open Feel, Splintered In Her Head, Southway, Mansions & Junipers, Low Tide Theory, Fluorescent Echo, Farmacia.'

We especially liked the cover of Warm Leatherette by Fluorescent Echo as well as the tracks by our friends Farmacia and J. Rumney. All in all this is a great play list and we're very happy to be included too!

Square Pig’s Electro Chart - Vote T!TN

For lovers and discoverers of all types of music, whether it be indie, acoustic, electro, 80's or folk, the new Square Pig website is well worth a visit. This is a goldmine for bands and music fans alike as it provides opportunities to promote gigs, music and venues as well as providing a platform for loads of new bands, us included. 

We've found our way onto Square Pig's Electronic New Music Chart along with our friends Factory Acts and some other new electronic artists, all of which are well worthy of your ears. More artists are due to be added to the chart in coming weeks. 

The voting element is a good bit of fun, which will hopefully give all the bands an incentive to get on board and spread the word to their fans, but the main purpose is to showcase new music. There's a chance that if you already like one of the bands on there, you'll discover something new to your taste as well. Brilliant!

We'd also like to send a big squeal of delight and a trough load of gratitude to the Square Pig website for including us; like all of the bloggers, DJs and reviewers who spend their time, usually for free, promoting new music, these guys are part of the life blood of the independent music scene that provides an alternative to the tide of  mass produced swill that we're fed by the mainstream music industry. That's enough of the extended pig metaphor, suffice to say: Thanks Square Pig!
