Cyclic Defrost

Last night was my first go at my new show, Join The Dots, on FBI. The deal’s a weekly show about links between all sorts of different music. And after the first admittedly rough run I’m convinced that playing cool music and talking about it at length might be my idea of heaven.

This week’s show ended up loosely Scandinavian – loads of Norwegian punk jazz and electropop, some Swedish punk, no hip hop though, and links outtascandi to Sonic Youth, Subs, New Buffalo, Mike Patton and even a couple of Aussies over there (Upshot, Lake Lustre).
