it's a blipping addiction

can't WAIT for these guys to kick out an iPhone app so i can stream this stuff, but for the past few months i have been toying with this online radio thingo, and i love it.

it will possibly eclipse my blogging shortly, so if you want to follow me on blip, go here:

playlist is so far nearly all super mellow electronica

cheers

what we like

no remix, no unwanted gift wrapping

just the original mix

holy fuck, that's a solid track

well, they got their wish. they're raison d'etre fnar fnar, inspiring someone to be offended when they were promoted as part of sydney festival

it's brilliant in a way, an artwork in itself, their name

i can barely say it on the radio if i've played them, along with fuck buttons, they make life hard for an announcer, but holy fuck have become one of my joint album(s) of 2010

latin, featuring this:



and 55 cadillac, featuring this:



are my two.

you heard me. albums of the year :)

awk & holy fuck

and for memory and something that possibly combines the energy of the two, is this amazing old track from 2003 (that's 8 years now or something like that)...

wow, she wrote all of those songs?

i was just looking up cathy dennis in the hope of triggering a memory of the song of hers i had taped off the radio and really liked. maybe 'just another dream'?

and going searching, as i do, i found this list of songs she's written for other pop stars like toxic!

i can't find the original song i wanted. it's still somewhere on it's tape, and i haven't really heard any new pop for a while...

so how about some old pop for a friday?

cyndi lauper covering the big O roy orbison



and a massive hit that got me in the end :)



and that's me done for tonight

happy 2011

vale ralph mclean

a friend, a mentor, a fellow aesthete

we said goodbye to him today

i couldn't wear black. i put my daughter in her pink frilly fairy costume she got for christmas, and wore my own outrageous hi-top golden dunlop volleys

and said goodbye

at la mama in carlton

so, in tribute to my friend, i am coming out. no longer unknown. i am hermione. i am anaesthete, i am theparisend.

*waves*

bye ralph



and to the online world which he really understood... we lost a user too
http://www.youtube.com/user/artzmedia

through ralph i got several of my talented friends to appear on yartz, but few as successfully as luke whitby.



one of the last things i did for yartz was a not particularly good interview with a young musician named johnny flynn. i felt ill, i wasn't on form (ralph, i'm sorry), but he did perform two songs to camera. as soon as i can, i will see about getting those pieces up on youtube.



i think yartz has to go on, in some form. it must. it will.

i truly thank him, thank you, for the opportunity to do what we did, for community tv.



mischa - he brought out the best work in you.



scott and ralph agreeing about a film! :)



many of you join with me in mourning his passing... the community he was part of.

better for having known him, lucky to have loved him, shocked to have heard him :)

rest in peace

vale
