My Name Is Tiga on 6 Music April 2013

"Are my shows TOO conceptual?" 

Listen again to Tiga's latest 6 Music show. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon - if you like your Sunday afternoons completely BANGIN' that is. Tiga tackles the concept of taste this episode, mostly by playing a load of tunes that he thinks aren't that cool but he loves anyway. That 'On Your Mind' track by Deadboy is unreal. A quality selection of tracks, and if you like Tiga's usual deadpan delivery you are in for some treats:

Django Django's 6 mix

Dave from Django Django did a 6 mix on Friday; I love shows like this where you get to hear some of the band's influences and the kind of stuff they like. A really eclectic mix (stuff I would just never hear without shows like this) in the first hour, then a load of beats and hip hop in the second. Great radio:

It seems to have been taken down from everywhere so I've uploaded it to Mixcloud:

Stream Tiga's latest 6 Music show

"Let's try some atonal mixing.. It takes a real man to mix out of key"

As usual, Tiga's 2 hour BBC 6 music mix is pretty banging. Sadly, Tiga resolves to talk less this show, although the letter he reads from his future self gets pretty deep. Most importantly the tunes remain whopper. Tracks from Justice, Duke Dumont (including an excellent Tiga remix of 'The Giver'), Four Tet, Daniel Avery, Hot Chip, that awesome Talabot / Pional remix of Chained by The XX, and as usual some great tracks by artists I've never heard of before. Of particular note is the track 'De La Cabeza' by DJs Pareja on the Comeme label at around the 1'05" mark.

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:

If you haven't listened to any of his previous podcasts you can listen to the back episodes on itunes, get in: http://mynameistiga.com/

*First half banging, second half much less so.
