Dance Classics
|
 Almost two weeks ago I threw together a dance classics edition of my weekly radio show, Inside Splinters. It's a regular thing I've incorporated into the show and happens on the last Friday of every month. The following podcast is a recording of the show from the 26th of October which - hilariously - was the last Friday of that month, and spawned the very first visit into the Inside Splinters time machine.
Pretty much every single one of these songs is a personal favourite; some of them haven't aged well but that's besides the point. They were great at the time, and the memories are still there. Anyways, this recording also includes a live telephone conversation between myself and the delightful Paul from The Zapping, which is worth the download alone really.

The Midweek Hump.
|
 Sorry for the absence this week, I've been feverishly busy putting together a mammoth assignment for my New Communications class at Uni on music piracy. My brain is incredibly drained but my essay completely kicks arse (fuck it, I've worked my butt off on this one so I reckon tooting my own horn is completely justified,) so now I can concentrate on faffing about on here, planning the upcoming shows and taking a well earned 3 WEEKS OFF BEFORE EXAMS.
First of all, RSS FEED. I finally have that all sorted out so you can now add it to whatever it is you add it to:
http://www.imalwaysright.co.uk/rss.xml
Very good.
On another note, I'll put up the Inside Splinters Dance Classics Edition MP3 up on Monday. My uploading schedule seems to be going in this direction so I figured I'll just keep it going that way. After each show on Friday, 10 days later it'll be up on here. Make sense? No, not for me either.
I've been watching Private Practice during my time away from the hollows of study. I'm no Grey's Anatomy fan (never watched it, never will,) but this is GREAT. My imaginary boyfriend Chris Lowell stars in it (pictured) along with Judging Amy and a few other interesting people. But now I'm disappointed, simply because I've watched all five episodes that are available of the show and now have no interest in watching anything else. Ho hum.
Did any of you (fellow Australians) see The Librarian's which started tonight on the ABC? Absolute hoot, I love it. There's nothing more entertaining than uncomfortable and completely offensive comedy. Filling the shoes of Summer Heights High is quite a task, but this is certainly shaping up to be one of the best Aussie shows this year...
The new Divinyls single, Don't Wanna Do This, is a triumph and DOES NOT SUCK. Thank Christ for that. I'll be playing it this Friday on the show so if you're around Geelong/Melbourne, tune into 94.7 for a listen. Speaking of, that promised Divinyls mega-post is on its way.
I THINK A BLOGERATI POST IS COMING SOON.

 The delightful Glenn from Stale Popcorn appeared on my radio show Inside Splinters 2 weeks ago, and I have finally gotten off my arse and uploaded the effort. I think you'll find it is hilarious, random, and great. Please note: Heidi Sugababe cops a bit of a beating during some of the talk breaks - this doesn't actually reflect my thoughts on her (I love the woman.) She just happened to be the easy target on the night.
This gone Friday I hosted the Dance Classics Edition of Inside Splinters, which I actually think was my best show yet. Well, it was the one I enjoyed most... That's coming online tomorrow. But back to Glenn...

Better late than never.

 So I completely forgot to upload the Inside Splinters radio show from two weeks ago. I KNOW. Anyways, here it is, at 96kbps and coming in at 83mb in size. Please note that I was suffering from serious dental issues and could not be fucked talking much through this show.
There's a bare minimum of conversation between myself and the microphone due to the teething pain, and there are also some serious audio level problems because I was forced to do the show in the studio I've never actually used before. Just my luck it happens to be the fiddliest of all the studios at the station, and is the one everyone tries to avoid at all costs. However, the set list is killer.
Anyways, last week's show with special guest Glenn will be online by Friday.

 So on this Friday's edition of my weekly radio show, Inside Splinters, I'll be playing a couple of feature tracks from my 2 favourite albums of the week; Rogue Traders' Better In The Dark, and the fantastic Black & White Album by The Hives, which has completely won me and my top 10 album's of 2007 list over in a biiiiig way.
Review coming some time next week perhaps?
If you manage to stumble across this unbelievable record before I pen about it next week, Giddy Up and You Got It All... Wrong are the highlights and - not surprisingly - the two I'll be playing on the show this week.
Anyways, on Friday night, tuning into 94.7 The Pulse delivers a sure-fire guarantee you will hear songs from:
THE HIVES! : ROGUE TRADERS! : KELIS! : THE SOHO DOLLS!
BLOODY BEETROOTS! : DIVINYLS! : JOJO! : THE ROYAL WE!
OPERATOR PLEASE! : BOYS NOIZE! : MOTIV8! : JUSTICE!
ANNIE LENNOX! : GIRLS ALOUD! : OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN!...
...And possibly some more.
More importantly, joining me this week on the show is none other than the ace Glenn from the incredible/awesome/stupendous Stale Popcorn website (PLEASE NOTE: change of location - update your bookmarks kiddies.) There will definitely be discussions of Amelle and her two friends; left fist and right fist, and the striking features Jamie Bell possesses. Will that be ALL we talk about? You'll just have to tune in to find out... As per usual, I'll be podcasting the show next week through Sharebee as an MP3 file.
Geelong & (select) Melbourne residents; tune into 94.7 The Pulse on your FM dial from 8pm till 10pm, this and every Friday night for Inside Splinters. If you feel like giving Glenn & I a bell whilst we're on air, phone through on (03) 5222 5947 or, if you're internationally inclined and just feel like having a chat, +613 5222 5947.

 Here 'tis!
A recording of my Inside Splinters radio show from last Friday. I tried uploading to Sharebee, but for some reason all three times I attempted to do so it failed. So it's on Mediafire.

Proper posts coming tonight/tomorrow.

 This post was supposed to be up last Friday but Blogger decided to go all cunty on me and was cock-blocking my posts. All has been amended now.
I will post a download for last weeks show tomorrow sometime. Meanwhile, why not read the four-day old and worthless promotion for it?
Sugawaves. Do you see what I did there?
So tonight brings forth another edition of my new weekly radio show Inside Splinters. From 8pm till 10pm this and every Friday evening, I'll be hosting the show, which goes hand-in-hand with the reading of my new column (of the same name) found fortnightly in Forte Magazine. Mister Kamikaze Camel from Stale Popcorn himself also writes for Forte - we be repra'se'in' all that is good about music to the masses of Geelong yo (sorry I'm not usually this ghetto, I just didn't sleep well last night.)
The current issue (which came out yesterday) also has a couple of interviews I did with Bodyrox and also Boogie Pimps, if you're keen and locally able to obtain the paper. The Boogie Pimps interview will actually go to air in a couple of weeks, for those overseas/interstate.
Hopefully tonights show will go much smoother than last weeks. Though I'm sure no one actually wants me to, I will again pop the show up for download in MP3 format on Monday. If you think I'm just wasting my time, it is probably best you email me and notify me immediately.
Also, the last Friday of every month I'll be putting together a dance classics edition of the show. Email requests from website visitors are most welcome. In fact, I encourage it.
So if you get the chance, and are in Geelong or Melbourne (some areas of Melbourne are more likely to receive reception than others,) tune into 94.7 FM from 8pm till 10pm TONIGHT (tonight being FRIDAY.) Also, if you feel like giving me a bell on air, you can do that by dialing 5222 5947. Or, +613 5222 5947.
Tonight I will be playing songs by;
SUGABABES! (x2)
ROBYN!
ANNIE LENNOX! (x2)
BABYSHAMBLES!
MUSCLES! (x2)
PRINCESS SUPERSTAR!
KYLIE MINOGUE! (x2)
SNEAKY SOUND SYSTEM!
GROOVE ARMADA!
DEBORAH HARRY!
JENNIFER LOPEZ!
THE COPS!
ANGIE HEART!
TOTAL COELO!
DIVINYLS!
SOPHIE ELLIS-BEXTOR!
DRAGONETTE!
JUSTICE!
And probably something else, too. I'll also be playing a 14 minute bonza-megamix which previews the kind of songs you might hear on the dance classics special coming up on the 26th of October.
SO - Once again: tune into 94.7 FM from 8pm till 10pm TONIGHT (tonight being FRIDAY.) Also, if you feel like giving me a bell on air, you can do that by punching in the numbers 5222 5947 or +613 5222 5947 into your telephone of choice. Hooroo!

Microphone Killed The Radio Star
|
 So, as promised, here is the first 'episode' of my new pop music radio show, "Inside Splinters" for you to download.
Some notes:
- I was incredibly nervous for the first hour.
- It is stinkingly obvious for that first hour.
- There are some (bad) Helen Keller jokes.
- I say the words "nu-rave" not even five minutes in.
- The plan is to make next weeks show (the "proper" launch) much better, and I apologise in ADVANCE for what you're about to hear.
MP3 Format - 2 HOURS LONG - 92kbps - 90MB
http://sharebee.com/fa048594
Sharebee offers download links for ZShare, Rapidshare, Megaupload and some other one, so that should keep everyone happy. Tracklisting:

On a completely unrelated note, I've just finished watching episode 7 of Season 3 Weeds... good golly it's hilarious. Best season yet? Quite possibly. It's definitely Nancy's best season anyway... Season 1 was all about Celia, but the best one-liners have been OWNED by Nancy so far. And Silas... oh god, has he actually gotten HOTTER now that he is a convicted criminal/doing community service/drug dealer?Labels: Radio, Television

On The Radio...
|
 Oh-woah-oh-oh-oahh, on the radiooo.
Right.
So tonight marks my hilarious return to community radio. From 8pm till 10pm this and every Friday evening, I'll be hosting the Inside Splinters Radio Show, the audio equivalent to my new column found fortnightly in Forte Magazine of the same name.
I'm a bit excited but incredibly nervous seeing as I haven't been anywhere near a studio since January this year.
If you get the chance, and are in Geelong or Melbourne (some areas of Melbourne are more likely to receive reception than others,) tune into 94.7 FM from 8pm till 10pm. Also, if you feel like giving me a bell on air, you can do that by dialing 5222 5947.
Tuning in tonight provides a sure-fire guarantee you will hear new pop, electro and indie songs by;
M.I.A!
KYLIE MINOGUE!
JUSTICE!
THE ROYAL WE!
MUSCLES!
YELLE!
BABYSHAMBLES!
GIRLS ALOUD!
SUGABABES!
SEAL!
ROISIN MURPHY!
CHUNGKING!
DURAN DURAN FT. JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE!
ARCTIC MONKEYS!
KLAXONS!
GAMEBOY/GAMEGIRL!
TEENAGE BAD GIRL!
AND MAYBE SOME MORE!
There is also a very strong chance you will hear me fuck up at least three times, and use the phrase "Oh my god that's so random" in my best Jam'ie voice at least once.
For those of you not in the general vicinity of Geelong, the show will be made available for download here in about 80-92 kbps after the weekend.Labels: Radio
