The Fat Beat Diet, May 23rd 2011

Nice show this week as we play around with a whole bunch of different sounds. Montrealer Jacques Greene has been absolutely killing it internationally with ‘Another Girl’, and I can’t say I blem them – the track is gorgeous. It leads into a nice uptempo segment where I was celebrating May 24. Groove Armada’s Superstylin’ is a summer anthem to me, as is the preceding Etienne de Crecy track, so if the weather’s gonna continue to be lackluster, at least I can pretend like it’s beach weather.

Towards the end, slowed it down with a few Lauryn Hill tracks ahead of her Calgary show on the 24th (by the way, she gave an amazing show. Worth every penny of the admittedly steep 80-ish ticket price).

The Last Thursday Night Show
The Fat Beat Diet, April 28th 2011

Special 2 hour long-player ahead of our move to Monday nights. Starting it out with some nice D’n’B, then into some classic acid jazz stuff and relatively more recent broken beat (early millennium for the latter, early 90’s for the latter) for the second half hour. Then we dropped it into some hip hop and breaks for the last hour. Enjoy.

The Fat Beat Diet, April 14th
All vinyl throwback

My Artifacts 12

Tying in with CJSW’s Record Store Day, this week we dug deep into the crate and selected the finest records for an all-vinyl show. And by “dug deep into the crate and selected the finest records,” I mean I grabbed the nearest stack of records and brought ’em to the station and tried to put together a show. My vinyl collection is in various states of disorganization and I never managed to get it quite organized since my move nearly 2yrs ago. Now that I’m moving to a bigger place in a few weeks, I’ve got high hopes of finally getting things straightened out so that the collection is more er, accessible . Look out for more vinyl in the coming months.

Anyways, going back to vinyl does seem a bit of a step back, I’ve gotten used to the convenience and tricks with Serato, but there’s a lot of gems I never managed to get off of those nice black platters and into 1’s and 0’s.
