Double Dosage

First and foremost, apologies for not keeping you updated on the Viva Radio front. There was a show last week, but I was just too lazy/busy/preoccupied/stressed (delete as applicable) to actually get round to putting the tracklisting up. We had some reet gems, ranging from stonking dub techno (I've been caning that Substance & Vainqueur 12" since I got hold of the mp3s, and finally bought myself a copy whilst down at the Shackleton live set at Rooted (if you're buying dubstep online these guys should be your first port of call), which was of course as building shakingly excellent as you'd expect it to be - more on that later), skanked-out dub-disco business, bleep-happy bumpin' acid (from Paul Rutherford of Frankie Goes To Hollywood fame surprisingly enough - hence the show title), chirpy disco pop, and loads of other stuff including a posthumously released Larry Levan remix of Instant Funk. The show's available to stream right now, so get on over to the TAPE mini-site over at Viva and get your ears in gear.

That one above's available to listen to right now at the usual link, and this slinky little selection can be heard live at 1am GMT on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning over on the standard Viva site. As usual, it'll be available for archive immediately after it finishes. As for new releases, make sure to prick your ears up for the new Lee Jones on Aus (lazy bumpin' celestial magic), Noze's upliftingly melancholic boompty piano anthem (expect a late night rinsing of this at Friday's TAPE party) and Nathan Jonson's (yes, that'll be Mat's brother, otherwise known as Hrdvision) reductionist glitch-filled tech-step rework of Mathew's 'Return Of The Zombie Bikers' under their collaborative Midnight Operator moniker.
