Starting it off uptempo this afternoon with some house-y vibes before bringing it down into some soul and hip hop, and a few holiday treats.

Go download this track already!
Getting slightly more used to this thing, so managed to remember to start recording sometime through the first track, if memory serves. Some nice downtempo vintage Ninjatune stuff before playing some hip hop and a teeny bit of funk towards the end of the show.

I only remembered to start recording the mix at some point around the Tramps tune, so leading up to that, the show’s mono and low bitrate. So par for the course show, really.

I was clearly nowhere near engine, engine number 9 and could not get back on time to the station, so the first few tracks were a repeat of November 9th’s show. So let’s pick it up when I arrived at the station with Debarge, yes? Continuing on the late/disorganized theme, this week’s show is presented in glorious 64kbit mono!

We don’t have a theme song here at the Beat Diet, but if we did… Well, we wouldn’t. Not just one anyways. But if we had a pile of them, one of them, just based on the title alone, would be Dynasty’s Adventures In The Land Of Music. Amiright?! Anyways, Funk, hip hop and dance. Same as usual.

Been a while since I played some drum’n’bass, so here we are busting out some nice classic jungle chunes. Oh, and some hip hop to book end it.

Some soul, hip hop, and other bitties.

Note: I only started recording out of my mixer sometime around the Antibalas song, so the first few tracks are presented in glorious mono sound.

Week two. A mellow start, and we pretty much keep it there for the whole show, save the last few tracks where we turn it up, but only half a notch. This one’s straight out the mixer, so no chatting.

A resurrection seemed like a fitting theme to start out this, my very first show on the airwaves of Kootenay Coop Radio, CJLY 93.5 in beautiful Nelson, BC. I actually wanted to try and fit in Back From the Dead from People Under The Stairs, but just couldn’t work it in.
I’d been working on getting a show going in Nelson even before my last one had aired in Calgary but wasn’t sure if it would all come together which is one of the reasons I didn’t drop any hints of it as I was leaving CJSW. And though it seems like I’m just sliding from one to the other, emotionally and personally, it’s definitely the end of one thing and the start of something new. KCR shares some similarities to CJSW since they’re both community radio station, but in many ways they’re worlds apart. The show now airs midday, mid-week (Thursdays at 3pm), and this slot (or any slot at KCR, really) definitely doesn’t have the cachet nor the history that my Friday night one did. No amazing lead-in or follow up. I’m still trying to figure out what the audience is, and what works best for this slot. It’s similar to what it was, but subtly different, and I’ll be tweaking things as I go and get comfortable.
So, new show, new(ish) name. I’ve trimmed the fat, it’ll just be the Beat Diet for now. Hope you like it.

Note: this one’s from the logger, so low bitrate and mono sound. Perfect for crappy earbuds, ha!

After laughter comes tears… Me, during pretty much the whole show…
I’ve kind of been avoiding writing this one up because my general modus operandi is to stuff my feelings deep down and never let them see the light of day, so the fact that they were on display for everyone to hear here made this show that much tougher for me.
Oof. That was way harder than I expected. Thanks for all the radio love tonight @CJSW

Troof right there… I was a blubbering fool for most of the show. So for everybody’s sake, I’ve edited out most of all spoken bits out of this mix, because I actually really really like the mix here, especially in the context of a last show.

If you’re curious, you can probably check out the archives on cjsw.com (no, don’t. really…). The mix here is a nice mix of goodbye, I don’t want to leave, i’m leaving, and breakup songs. Then some love and gratitude songs. I’m very happy with how it turned out, and especially happy I didn’t short out the mixer with salty tears.
