Compuphonic live at Monegros Festival July 2012

Star trail photo from The Universe page on Facebook

I was getting pretty antsy as Compuphonic's July or August mix never materialised. But then I found this live mix from July in Monegros Festival in Spain on Red Bull Radio, and all was well with the world again. Although now I'm a little miffed I wasn't at that festival, it looks amazing; this gig was unreal I imagine:

Noir recommends July / August '12

light art by darius twin

Noir's latest recommendations: a load of sweet techno and deep house. Once you get past the voice whispering "Noooir recoooommeeeends" over it intermittently, it's a great collection. (When Tiga has to make noise over tracks he plays so they can't be ripped, he sings funny lyrics or says silly things, which is a lot less annoying. But there you go. And why, yes, I would just go and marry Tiga, if he'd only answer my emails.)

Talking Heads live in Rome, 1980

I've watched Stop Making Sense a lot. I had it on DVD and used to watch it after nights out. And then the good folk of Lighthouse Cinema showed it on a Saturday night and we danced in the aisles, one of the best things ever. If you haven't seen it, you need it in your life; check it out here. I'd never seen this concert though, Talking Heads live in Rome in 1980. It's a lot less stylized, but just as emotive and brilliant, particularly the performance of Born Under Punches.

My Name Is Tiga - Latest 6 music show

"It's been a while since my last show. So much has happened in the world.
I don't remember what, but there's been a lot of changes." - Tiga
Tiga's latest 6 mix if you didn't catch it on listen again. A load of whopper, mostly banging* tunes, including Tiga's new track 'The Picture' (out this week on Crosstown Rebels, his take on 'When Doves Cry') and tunes from Matthew Dear, Conrad Black and his old pal ZZT. But who am I kidding, I listen to these shows mostly because Tiga is so dreamy and hilarious and deadpan and his voice somehow calms and reassures me. This time he gets political with some propaganda as he runs for DJ of the Year 2012:

*First half banging, second half much less so.
