This week I had the pleasure of spending a lot of time in airplanes, but at least I was able to use the time to put together this week’s Radio 1 show. There were a couple of great new tracks that I played, including this one from Major Lazer, “Free feat. Amber from Dirty Projectors”Continue reading “Setlist, 19 May 2012”

Setlist, 28 August 2011
This week I managed to get a lot of new great music, much of it available on Soundcloud, including this new track by Holy Ghost! featuring Michael McDonald (yeah, he of the Doobie Brothers): Poolside’s really nice cover of Neil Young’s “Harvest Moon:” Little Dragon’s title track from their new album, “Ritual Union:” Here’s LittleContinue reading “Setlist, 28 August 2011”
Setlist, 13 August 2011
This week’s show had a lot of new music at the beginning and the end, including the excellent new compilation on Brownswood, “Brownswood Electric 2” and one of the tracks I played this week is by the 19-year-old wunderkind Frederic Robinson, “Mood Swings:” In addition, there was the absolutely smashing “Cursis Melodias” by Natalia Lafourcade,Continue reading “Setlist, 13 August 2011”
Setlist, 9 July 2011
This week it was all about the new Red Hot + Rio compilation. A serious monster of a record, and a really good cause at the same time. I also got my virtual hands on the title track of Little Dragon’s upcoming “Ritual Union,” which will finally hit the shelves on 26 July. Yeah! TheContinue reading “Setlist, 9 July 2011”
Radio 1 Setlist, 25 June 2011
I love this time of year, not only because the days are so long, but also because so much new music comes out. This week’s show had quite a few new tracks, including material from the excellent new compilation “Americana: Rock Your Soul Blue Eyed Soul & Sounds From The Land Of The Free.” AlsoContinue reading “Radio 1 Setlist, 25 June 2011”
Setlist, 11 June 2011
This week was a real bonanza for new music. Not only did I get my hands on new material from Prommer and Barck, but I got hold of a few choice compilations, including “Seven Heven – Perfect Little Slices Of Soul, Funk And Funky,” and Gilles Peterson’s “Brownswood Bubblers 4.” But by far the coolestContinue reading “Setlist, 11 June 2011”
Setlist, 21 May 2011
This week I traded places with Radio 1’s other Saturday morning DJ, Jarda Dušek, and maybe it was the nice weather or the different slot, but I played a lot less Latin music than usual this week. It also helps that there’s so much good music being made these days 🙂 Standout tracks this weekContinue reading “Setlist, 21 May 2011”
Setlist, 30 April 2011
This week’s show had a lot of new music – I think there were only a few tracks I’ve played before out of a 3-hour show. The standout tracks came from completely different worlds and parts of the world. One track that absolutely _killed_ me was from Cleveland Jones, “Sensitive:” Another excellent track is TraceyContinue reading “Setlist, 30 April 2011”
Setlist, 16 April 2011
This week’s show was really diverse even by my own standards, with music from West Africa taking a large part of the spotlight (I was in Senegal for two weeks at the end of March/beginning of April). I can’t recommend highly enough the Sofrito: Tropical Discotheque compilation, which I also played a lot of thisContinue reading “Setlist, 16 April 2011”
Setlist, 19 March 2011
This week’s show had a lot of very new music, owing to the South by Southwest Festival underway in Austin, Texas, plus the upcoming Sperm Festival here in Prague. One of the bands to watch for 2011 is Brandt Brauer Frick, who will be playing at the Sperm Festival. Here’s their newest clip, Caffeine: BecauseContinue reading “Setlist, 19 March 2011”
