One week on from when it was first broadcast on Purple Radio, here’s a bit of bassline wobbliness, some Ghetto Funk, and a fistful of mellow hiphop for your enjoyment from this fortnights show. Including tunes from Kormac, J Dilla, Stickybuds, and a lovely little number *finally* released by Mr Sus …
Enjoy!

I was having a blog related quandary the other day – I know four posts in is a little early for existential crises – but I was struck by the thought. What this site is here for?
The initial idea was to have this as a on-line Electronic Promotion Kit, essentially somewhere I could point people when I was pushing for gigs, with mixes, a bio, some press shots and the like. I was also going to have links to the shows that I do on Purple Radio.
Thing is, it might be a little sparse at times, so I thought, what could I do to come up with more quality content? Then I realised I spend loads of my free time scrubbing through new releases and am often asked by mates where tunes have come from, what labels they’ve been released by, etc. and then it struck me – I should spread the love, and what better way to do that than to round up a few of my favourite cuts and chuck them to you in time to warm you up for the weekend?
BEHOLD! Three on a Thursday !
Some tunes are new, some are old ones I’ve only just discovered, some will be upbeat, some a bit more mellow – the only unifying factor is that I’ll have picked them up at some point over the week, I like ’em and I’ll do my best to put them up on a Thursday for you to have a butchers at.
Here are the remaining two hours of tunes I played out on Big Chill FM at last years festival. They were played from 6-am, so are so chilled they’re almost horizontal – everything from Brian Eno to Massive Attack, and Nina Simone to Madlib.
It’s broken into two one hour chunks, and there seems to be a lack of a tracklisting for the first hour, but I’m sure I can piece it together is you’re interested.
Many of the other artists who graced the radio with their tunes can be found on the Big Chill Radio channel over on Mixcloud

Just realised I had a couple of links to the Big Chill FM shows I did, kindly arranged by the wonderful people at The Big Chill Festival.
This one is a lazy little sunny afternoon collection which was originally broadcast as the gates to the Festival opens. There’s lots more good stuff from many of the artists who appeared on the radio station over the course of the weekend on the Big Chill FM Mixcloud channel
