Seven and a half hours of radio

It is tough to play five hours of radio and fit in 75 percent Australian music (and 25 percent of that from Sydney), like really hard. I’m recovering from ridiculous radio slots at both ends of the candle yesterday. I did the breakfast drive slot on 2SER FM with my friend Eli from 6:30 ’til 9am and then the graveyard shift on FBI FM from 1 ’til 6am. Unsurprisingly, I spent yesterday in a hazy kind of place.

I don’t have a song list, I’ll work that kind of thing out when I’m doing radio a bit more often, but I played these amongst others:

The Remote Viewer – They’re Closing Down the Shop
Masha Qrella – I Don’t Like Her
Subs – track one from their killer demo CD goes something like ‘one, i got no money, two, no job…’
Arab Strap – Why Can’t This Be Love?
Pharrell – Maybe (remix)
GM Grimm – Street General – Bush-baiting MF Grimm in fine form
MC Saquinho – Montagem the Smith – Smiths-sampling bomb
DJ Dolores – De Dar Do
Ohmega Watts – That Sound (Quantic Soul Orchestra remix)
Pasobionic – Echoes of Blue
Lush – Hypocrite
Other People’s Children – Transatlantic
Zillions – Step Into the Sun
Acetate Zero – December Sounds Like That
Bombay 1 – More Than Everything
Datarock – Nightflight to Uranus
Sodastream – Keith & Tina
The Free Design – Lullaby (J-Nova remix)
New Order – Krafty (Glimmers 12″ mix)
Dsico – Modulations
Underlapper – Little (Seaworthy remix) – taken from a great little ep of Underlapper remixes that I picked up from the Feral Media people at Newtown Festival a few weeks ago
The Chap – Baby I’m Hurt’n
Five Dollar Day – The Greatest Symphony
Mountains In The Sky – Noah’s Arkestra
Alarm Will Sound – Meltphace 6
The Village Orchestra – Jacob/Bad Hand At Cards v2
Faux Pas – Cup of Wonder
Omar S – Jit
Stromba – Septic Skank
DJ Soup – Smidgeon
Devastations – I Don’t Want To Lose You Tonight
Francis Plagne – Making Wheat Elastic
Sofie Loizou – Lost

That's it. What Next?
