Two Excellent Electronic Mixclouds for you from Essex and Kent!

HT: Despite being based up north we've been spending a lot of time listening to some great local radio stations from dahn sarf. Thanks to the wonder of the web, every local radio show on the planet is available in the global village and so we've been tuning in when'er we've been aired. This is all part of our slow but sure strategy towards world domination. Village by village, community by community, we will use our synthtastic stealth to worm our way into your ears and ultimately your hearts. Have you seen the time? I get more verbose when I'm tired...

So, first up we have Rob Harvey's Saturday Breakfast show from 22nd June 2013 which includes the likes of us along with Ultravox, Goldfrapp, Depeche Mode and ZZ Top. ZZ Top? Well anyway, it's a very good music show from Essex radio station Phoenix FM. We sent our CD to Rob last week and he has already reported that he can't stop singing 'Prostitute's Handbag'. Obviously resistance is futile.

Once you've listened to Rob's show, you can scroll further south and you will find a mixcloud widget from Sheppey FM's excellent Bluetown Electronica. This show is sheer bliss if you love electronic music in all its forms. Our tracks don't appear on the listings on the mixcloud, but we're there, hiding in clear sight...

Rattlebag Radio Presents...Under The Electric Blanket by By Ian Thistlethwaite

On Monday night we put out a call to any DJs who might like us  to record a jingle for them. We were already recording a couple for Mitrakos Evangelos from La Cooperativa Radio in Greece (make sure you click on that link - we'll have more news re. this in future posts) so we thought we'd see if anyone else wanted one.

Suddenly, out of the twittersphere appeared a man by the name of Ian Thistlethwaite who asked for a jingle for one of his Rattlebag Radio podcasts.  Of course, we were very happy to oblige because we're nice like that.

The very next day, our jingle appeared in the 'Under The Electric Blanket' mixcloud podcast which is pasted below. Much as we'd like to claim that our jingle is the best thing on there, it isn't, as the mixcloud is full of some really interesting new electronic sounds and musicians, including a favourite of ours Cloud Waste and the Calf. 

There's a good few artists on here that we intend to check out further. It's well worth a listen...despite our jingle...
