Sound Quality

What a weight of diverse sounds await you this week. There's a bunch of locals under the name of Box Freezer Romance who do a kind of sea shanty meets Morris dancing - with a 21st century indie twist. Then a new US artist who is taking the world by storm with his very calm approach [I'm not convinced, so I want your opinion on this act]. There's also Natacha Atlas helping out the Temple of Sound, great new beats from Headman, Keiran Hebdan [aka Four Tet] recording and reconstructing Sunburned Hand of the Man, classically trained in piano, violin and viola - Kelley Polar with a kind of disco string thing. And that's only the first hour. In the second hour, the above mentioned Four Tet selected and mix the regluar Coldcut's Solid Steel Radio Show along with more new releases.

New releases like Rob Smith from Smith & Mighty reworking the Dub Syndicate, more 45 King's releases [the last in the three volumes feature], Canadian challenges to the status quo [both politically and musically], some actual rock music from NYC and an album one reviewer said was the combination of everything good in music from all time [I think that might be a stretch].
