Big shout to Dr Strangedub for featuring the mix called “We love shortwave” from One Deck Pete on this morning’s Echo Chamber on KFAI here at 83 minutes in here. Track listings are as follows:

Radio Sweden Interval Signal
Triptica – Mysterious Radio Signals
Jasmine Tutum & Madtone – This Frequency
Shortwave Sounds – Reflections
Madtone – Spoken Words from Ibiza
Holger Czukay/Jah Wobble – Hiss n Listen
Gregory Morris & The 18th Parallel – Dub In Your Stereo (dub of Message in your radio by Kumar)

It’s lovely to hear Radio Sweden’s old Interval Signal over the airwaves alongside some great dub and downbeat on a Wednesday morning from 8-12am. Tune in and enjoy the show every week here at the allotted time! Cheers again to Dr Strangedub and DJ Baby Swiss.

And talking of the Echo Chamber here is the person who actually told us about the show many years ago, WIll Jeff. Here’s this month’s show from him called Lingua Franca show on Love Will Save The Day FM (below).”Songs from around the world you can sing along to” indeed. Some wonderful stuff on here in a balearic summery worldwide style. Tune in!

Here’s a great tune recommended by our good mate Will Jeff who presents the great Lingua Franca show on Love Will Save The Day FM (below). He told us about the artist Land of the Loops and The Bundle Of Joy LP. It’s a great set and we picked this tune from it called Multi-Family Garage Sale (Bargain-Bin Mix) as we love a garage sale and a bargain. The bass puts in mind of a certain Peter Hook(y). Land of the Loops is an artist well worth investigating and do check out Will Jeff’s output on LWSTD-FM!

And then there were six

At the start of November we received some egyptian/walking onion bulblets (here) and we put them in a pot as soon as we got them off the postman. We paid for one and got some spares in the pack just in case they didn’t take and look, we’ve got 6 starting to sprout now. How is that for a good deal? They were only a few quid as well. Cheers to Real Seeds for these.

And tonight we’ve been listening to the recent show from our mate Will J on Love Will Save The Day FM called Lingua Franca. If you like some great chilled worldwide vibes you’ll love this show. There’s some brilliant stuff on here from all points across this circular world of ours. Give it a listen.

It features this wonderful tune, which we’ve never heard before:

And cheers to Will for telling us about this clip of a performance in 1970 which is out of this world! Talk about fast talking style. We have watched this many times in a row tonight and now questioning our own sanity.
