A Pocket Sized Mixtape Vol. 15: So So So Modern

So So So Modern. So So So Fresh. So So So Clean.

Vol. 15 in the Pocket Sized Mixtape series is the third and final instalment in another trilogy of mixes, this time with both (all three?) feet firmly planted in the *modern* vibe of experiental electronica, post future beatscapes and seriously sideways dream pop.

I urge you to search these artists and their music out. Their ears will thank you.

And This... #4: Leftside Wobble

And This...
#4
LEFTSIDE WOBBLE

Prolific as a DJ, producer, remixer and promoter for years now - and yet I don't know his real name - Leftside Wobble is one of the most consistently on-point people in music at the moment. While I've highlighted only one of this tunes on this page (his beautiful dub of Richard Earnshaw's 'Cry Me A River'), I strongly suggest you check out his soundcloud page, his mixcloud page and his blog, follow him on twitter and just basically soak up anything he has put his hand to.

Get in there and get your wobble on.

Playlist: EXPANSIONS RADIO on Base FM

Some of you may vaguely be aware that Base FM is not the first radio station I've presented a radio show upon.

I made my humble beginnings waaay back upstairs in St. Kevin's Arcade, on Auckland's Karangahape Rd, with the mighty lil' KFM (still broadcasting on 106.9FM, though now from across the road in a much more salubrious surrounding), before picking up the Sunday noon set on George FM. I took over the from the legendary (and legendarily proud naturist) Darrell Aardvark, and settled there, playing every Sunday afternoon for many years; before growing disenchanted with the direction the station was taking under corporate ownership and jumping across to Radio Ponsonby. That short-lived, but brightly-burning station almost saw me give radio away, before an opportunity came to re-ignite my love for broadcasting at Base FM.

The George FM show was the first to be called 'In The Pocket', and the Radio Ponsonby show which saw the first use of the title 'Expansions'. When I started here at Base, I unthinkingly settled on the former, when the truth is, the music I enjoy playing on Base FM suits the latter...

For me, 'In The Pocket' was always about having a good time on a Sunday afternoon, and connecting with the right kind of relaxed, inclusive vibe that'd bring the most pleasure to the most people. On the other hand, 'Expansions' is more about pushing boundaries, taking people a little further than they're necessarily comfortable with, and just generally doing a little more exploring of our many musical soundscapes.

So, I guess this is the officially unofficial re-brand of my Base FM radio show, to:

E X P A N S I O N S

The time stays the same. The day stays the same. The steez stays the same. One other small change, is that I'm going to begin posting these weekly radio shows on my MixCloud page. They'll be all-killer, no-filler; all music, no chatting; always available for listening, and with no time limits. I hope you enjoy the ride...

A Pocket Sized Mixtape Vol. 7: Fruity and Funky

Volume Seven in the 'A Pocket Sized Mixtape' series veers far, far away from the 'laxed out vibes of the previous trio of mixtapes. However, the riches to be found within this collection are most definitely represented accurately in the title - all the tracks found here are indeed both FRUITY and FUNKY. So shed your inhibitions and get with the party.
