These will be very fresh tracks, that are starting to bubble up in the world of social media and will be very carefully curated. Each tweet will link to the track on Soundcloud and hashtags will denote the genres. These tracks will NOT be played on the NYUB podcast.

Think the aggregation of multiple hype machines but with a human filter on top. :)

You can sign up here and please, spread the word.

I'm thinking of a radical short-cut. No voice-overs from me and instead soundcloud integration where you'll see which tracks start where. The podcast will still go out via normal channels (RSS and direct download) but you'll also be able to play and view it in soundcloud where I'll tag and comment on each track.

Would love to hear your thoughts. I have a TON of music to get out by the way, so get ready.

A new show is in the works and will be out next week. Meanwhile, I have completely immersed myself in the world of Spotify. I have created a collaborative playlist called 'This is Uncool'. It really is a mixed bag of material from 1976 to current day and was inspired by music critic Garry Mulholland.

    Feel free to add to it - it is a fully collaborative playlist.

I stumbled upon a pile of old New Zealand alternative music classics from the late 70's to the early 90's and even a few from a couple of years ago. I'm in no position to create a podcast of these but the next best thing was for me to create a Spotify playlist containing some of the best tracks from the following bands:

It's not dead. It'll be back at the end of April. A new job, house and finishing up an MBA has kept me rather busy. 

    In the meantime, enjoy this...
