4song #01

this is another podcast

With 4songs I will post four full songs that go well together
a short and sweet little podcast that won't mess with your head like
the soundonsound ones do

4songs #01

song one is California Bloodlines by John Stewart
The title track of his fabulous late 60s album.
sweet, gentle and plaintive a surprising album opener

song two is a cover. Deena Webster sings Hair of spun gold written by the young Janis Ian.
her strong voice works well here

song three is a hippy number from the Rainbow Band. Song of the Navajo.
this is repetitive with pretty corny lyrics but I just quite like the bend in the long note

song four is by Tennent & Morrison and it is called Take My Place.
yeah its sounds like where it is from - the early seventies. but it never got any airplay so listen now.

all these four songs are from the late sixties and early seventies but you probably haven't
listened to them to death like other songs from this era - hope you enjoy the mellow mood.

enter the child without an ipod myspace
and listen to exclusive tracks.
I have added many of the artists featured in the shows
as myspace friends so find out more about them by visiting the page.
Plus if you are a listener and have a myspace page then
please add me as a friend.

I am having trouble logging into blogger at home at
the moment. They have a terrible coding problem mixing
the google logon javascript with the blogger start page.
So I won't be able to update the podcast as easily.
I'm praying that they fix it soon or I may have

Streaming Issues

Just a quick update.
I am still hosting these mixes on free webspace.
It doesn't have fast download speeds and although
the mp3s are encoded at 96kbps
dilistening to a smooth stream isn't usually possible.

The best thing to do is download the mix by
subscribing to a podcast aggregator such as iTunes or simply right clicking on the title of a
post which is a direct link to the mp3 file and then opting to save to hard disk.

Chaos Field







Chaos Field is the name of a Japanese vertical scrolling Shoot 'em up Arcade Game.
Usually about two minutes into playing such a game you find
there are thousands of shiny balls of death streaming across the
screen that you haven't a hope in hell of avoiding.

One for the noise-masking-pop fans.

this mix includes the following plus more

Carl Craig and Derrick May ?

Franklin my dear







Wilkommen and Bienvenue to the annus newus.
Take a boat trip up to the icy dark northern seas.
On board a ship with poor Lord Franklin.
Stuck between quickly freezing arctic ice flows,
his ship and crew lost forever.
Only the mournful voice of a friend left behind to tell the tale.

And inbetween all that a bunch of music and voices all thrown together,
telling of Saddam, life on the Welsh coast, the twee sixties, fried heads and Spanish acid.
Oh Lordy Lordy its time for another child without an iPod.

The Villagers Dream - Dylan Thomas (read by Richard Burton et al)

pearl (aka Angel Piss)






Pearl (aka Angel Piss)
is another almost but not quite unlistenable mix for you to struggle with.
Maybe it'll make sense like one of those daft messy pictures
you had to "look through" in order to see the 3d picture hidden within
If you were lucky the illusion would miraculously float before your eyes.
Maybe this'll be the same but with ears!!
Or perhaps it'll just induce the painful headache and the irritating feeling
of wasted time that gazing at those magic-eye pics gave me.
I hope its the former.

Here are most of the tracks.

Anestis Delias - o ponos tou prezakia
Pink Martini - Sympathique
Ed Askew - 9 Song
Kettel - Whom
The Teddy Bears - To Know Him Is To Love Him
Nina & Frederick - Little Donkey
Prince Far I & The Arabs - Glory to God
Acid Mothers Temple - Electric Love Machine
Ultra Nate - Free
The Orb - Valley
Mercedes Sosa - Gracias a la vida
Skream - Monsoon (Loefah mix)

apologies for lack of sound

I'm currently having trouble with the
hosting of the audio files.
I use free host sites and these tend to
go down after about six months or so as
the people who set them up
realise that they aren't making any money.

I've got a new domain and a friend
is lending me some server space. Once he sets up the
ftp access I'll re-up the files.

You may like to try visiting b00mb0x in the interim
where there are
lots of homemade mixes to be heard.

rape of the wild west end






A lot has changed since those free
and easy Soho Knopflerisms
forever captured in the lines such as
"greasy greasy greasy hair,
easy smile"

What is wrong with a chilled out pervert's cruise
down the old west end?

Nuffink, thats what I say.

But things've changed.
This guy was getting fresh coffee beans
from the old Italian deli before all you Starfuckers
even knew it came from beans.

Anyway, none of that explains the irritating
mess I've made of said track.

In her hands






You're gonna love this one,
I promise you.
This has proper un-mashed songs,
a pretty good flow,
and no shocking ugliness and harshness.
Yet it will still provide you
with enough of the quark, strangeness and charm
that you expect from
a childwithoutaniPod mix.
There is cosmic optimism at the heart
of this baby.
We open with the "should be world famous"
Columbian band Aterciopelados, what a voice!
I just can't but help smile when I hear these French Doves
sing an English hymn.
A beautiful mystic seashore song from the Scottish greats.
New soon to be released frozen-tech-dub from Denmark's Trentemoller.
Wevie Stonder break the ice in their own inimitable style.
Hall & Oates sing their smooth insincerities and did they steal
Gene Clark's rhythm? You decide.
Gene with his Zen lyrics is masterful in this piece.
Aterciopelados get global again and pass around the pipe of peace.

Aterciopelados - Platonico
Folk Dove - Lord of the dance
Bread Love and Dreams - The strange tale of Captain Shannon
Trentemoller - The very last resort
Wevie Stonder - Gagged & Bound
Hall & Oates - Alone too long
Gene Clark - Winter in
Aterciopelados - La Pipa de la Paz

If you haven't lost your happy coloured marbles

stuff than I.

This is a labrynthine mash of moody dark themes and subconscious
triggers. Hopefully it is like a healthy nightmare,
or a risky potholing expedition, you'll be glad to get out the other side and look back fondly saying, that was great but please,
never again!!

LOST
Celebrating the return of the clueless TV show,
this fall.
Celebrating the return of the superb yet frightening
techno club night in London starring Jeff Mills, Laurent Garnier,
Rhythm and Sound and Steve Bicknell and a crowd of techno nutters.

STOP THE PRESS
DWELLER TALKS!!!

Here is first in what will
probably become a parrallel
podcast to accompany these mixes.
This is a much more straight-forward
play tune, talk, play another tune show.
Nothing fancy (yet).

Unfortunately I am very tired and didn't notice
that the sound was being clipped at times.
What I have to say between tracks is rather humdrum and
unenthusiastic, but I promise that this will improve.
I just did this for the spontanaeity factor
that I wholeheartedly believe in and adhere to.

No tracklisting as I mention them in the show.

Hugs and kisses listeners,

Hoylake






Hoylake,
location of the orginal Red Rocks.
My Grandparents lived there on Marine Road.
We spent many half terms,
christmases and eastersin Hoylake.
We'd often walk along the desolate windy beach
and back across the Golf Links.
Now Hoylake along with Lebanon is squarely on the Map
due to The British Open Golf tournament being played there
this week.

I dedicate this mix to wanking in your grandparents
bathroom using the shaving mirror to make your dick look big.

starts off with a little
Black Dog production
Van Morrison who was that masked man
along the way comes Juana Molina
Chambao with desconocido
Magic Carpet - La La
an Erik B for President remix
John Lennon writing She said she said
JJ Cale is crying
King Tubby is there
an Oval meditation
Bread's If
a track from Helios
Hallucinator does some farting
Syd Barrett with a 1974 boogie
USA USA by Blacksmoke
Beatles do a version of Rain
Detroit Escalator Co with Gathering Memory
Anne Briggs is living by water
TV Victor vibes in
Vibrating Cancer Pants from an AMW compilation
Hawkwind has an Iron Dream
Pitman has sugar in his peas
Espers tries to come on the scene
But they're kicked out by Gnarls favourite
Geordie by Trees
they are accompanied by the breeze blowing over the
Hoylake golf links....


NB this list covers more or less everything
but there maybe some I missed.
more instant three-way winamp action
I like this method of production
as there is no room for error,
you cannot preview the tracks
or do any loops or fancy speed changes.
All you have is three tracks with their own volume control.
Mind you,
I really fancied a piece of toast and a cup of tea half way through...

tulips - the third way







Instead of using my usual popular dj mix app,
I made this mix using one instance of itunes and
two instances of winamp for some three way sonic action.

largely electronic based mix.

I haven't got a tracklist for this one
but it includes
Carl Craig (a few tracks)
Aloe Die + Matthias Grassow
Brian Eno
The Books
Isan
The Orb
Irresistible Force
The Velvet Underground
Coil
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance (again, sorry)
Hawkwind
Maurizio
Derrick Carter
The Mighty Diamonds

plus a few other interlopers

(one aspect that got away here was my voice,
I was chatting sweet nothings over this mix with my mike,
but fortunately for you it turned out
I was recording wav sound only.)

Welcome to the latest installment of child without an iPod.

Not ER not Casualty, nor Scrubs or M*A*S*H* I might add, but???

Secret because I don't want major record companies sniffing round or cheeky teenagers in hoodies and baseball caps
trying to insult my mixing technique.

This "crazy" HOT HOT HOT last track has one more secret I shall reveal.
I learned from a kind source that this track samples
drums and guitar from a Trees track called "Geordie" from their
On The Shore LP. Listen to the Humpback Whale podcast for another track from this great LP.

Humpback Whale






Here we go again.
Join me on this exploration of the lesser spotted
folk-styled music of yester-year.
Harsh oceanic reality, sitar whimsy, easyrideresque hazing,
delicate tinkling, then thunder, then rain, an adventure on
horseback, vocal guts, zen beat contemplation, and an historic Indian shanty.

The Humpback Whale - Nic Jones

Latina ABBA Parade






Liven things up with this epic Latin funfest.
Intro and outro are heavy duty man!!
The power surges in slow and as the bagpipes
signal the arrival of something tantalisingly holy
the upbeat fun begins - you swing along
into Latin sunshine madness.
You better enjoy the warmth while you can.
You can hear warning signals,
they threaten to break the spell.
Suddenly you look out the window over
the bleak Highbury Rooftops.
The grey dungeon of cold skies darkening.
Brush away this realisation with a stoner rock meltdown.
Yes, it's Sunday again.

Sheep






THE LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
